Trump is simply a far better bet to put the Left into disarray in November.

Trump is the left! He is putting the right in disarray not the left!

And Trump is more Conservative, instinctively, than Romney ever was.

I don't think Trump is conservative. He does not favor a limited government, he does not believe in free markets, he is not for moral character and he seems to have a disdain for the constitution. I am no fan of Mitt, but Trump is not more conservative and his instincts are pure democrat populism.

Conservatives do not start out by having a conservative position on all issues. The point of my article Trump: Metaphor For American Conservatism, is that he has the basic Conservative personality. He is, however, still a work in progress. But as a builder, he has followed the traditional American pattern, building a social order from the ground up (note: America--Grounded On Experience & Reason.)

The one factor that more than any other has distinguished American traditional values from all of the silliness postulated from wish lists in other lands, is that here the framers of our institutions started with actual experience, rather than theory. Trump gets this, and that is why lifelong Conservatives, such as myself and Phyllis Schlafly, as examples, support Trump.
