So now election year promises are how we define Conservatism?

No, Trump's election year promises are what matters. If you think sticking with the DC status quo, led by Hillary or the GOPe/mimi-GOPE (Ted Cruz), then take your vote elsewhere, I guess.

God, you sound like the Tories did during the American Revolution!

By that criteria, the whole GOP is conservative.

Your criteria is flawed. Coming from other "conservatives", politicians all, the election year promises are as empty as they've been for decades.

These promises are coming from Donald Trump, not some run-of-the-mill politician. And, by all accounts, Donald Trump is a man of his word.

Trump will be different. At least he's willing to try something different in the face of a corrupt and entrenched system that promises all members of the Uniparty a spot at the feeding trough, as long as they play along.

I thought that’s why Conservatives look to the record to determine a candidate’s Conservatism.

Trump doesn't have a political record, but he has a good record as a red-blooded American capitalist in the real world, as opposed to the phony world of politics.

I must have missed the memo.

Yes, you missed the memo where we need Revolutionary change in Washington DC, and the only person even remotely willing and able to lead that change is Donald J. Trump.

Vote Trump

According to whom? Trump?

If you think sticking with the DC status quo, led by Hillary or the GOPe/mimi-GOPE (Ted Cruz), then take your vote elsewhere, I guess.

I find your lumping of Cruz (and the TEA Party) in with the GOPe to be highly disingenuous.

Trump will be different.

Unicorns farting rainbows, as I see it. Wish in one hand... 'Will be' is not 'IS'. Cruz IS Conservative, by every measure.

Trump doesn't have a political record, but he has a good record as a red-blooded American capitalist in the real world, as opposed to the phony world of politics.

Sorry, but no, he doesn't.

the only person even remotely willing and able to lead that change is Donald J. Trump.

Messianic strains. No thanks. The working end of the spear is the TEA Party... not one man.

Vote Trump

Thanks, but I'll stick with the Conservative in the race.
