Trump 100% conservative? That's certainly a bit of a stretch. Here's a 70 year old man who has, up until a little more than a year ago, been a 'Rat

There you go. Third sentence, and you're parroting the Trump-hater/GOPe/Cruz talking points.

Donald Trump has been registered as a Republican for more over the last 30 years, than he has been as a Democrat.

But let's just set that fact aside for a moment.

Jim Robinson himself reposted, as an entirely new article, a well-researched piece which conclusively proves that Donald Trump has talked about many of these same conservative issues (immigration, taxation, trade) going back over 30 years. Numerous citations were made from Donald Trump's own books, as a matter of fact.

That puts the lie to your false accusation regarding Donald Trump's conservative positions and beliefs.

Is Trump a perfectly ideologically pure conservative? No. But claiming he's not conservative at all is preposterous propaganda.

Additionally, Jim Robinson also was asked the question "Is Trump a Democrat?" and here was his response:

Build a wall.
enforce the law.
deport them all.
end sanctuary cities.
end anchor babies.
moratorium on muslim immigration.
cut the taxes.
cut the spending.
cut the regulations.
cut the government.
cut the debt.
cut the epa.
repeal obamacare.
get the feds out and allow health insurance to be sold over state lines.
send education back to states.
get a handle on trade.
make trade deals in our own interests.
bring back capital.
bring back manufacturing.
bring back jobs.
strengthen the economy.
defend the second amendment
defend religious freedom.
appoint constitutional conservative judges.
rebuild our military.
bomb the shit out of isis.
end political correctness.
take the gop head-on.
take the media head-on.
take the liberals head-on.
and win, baby, win.

all of the above on a shoestring budget compared to most of the 16 competitors he’s beaten.
no pacs.
no big donors.

what’s democrat about any of the above?
What’s not conservative?
what’s not to like?

So, to summarize, you are more content to regurgitate phony talking points, than to face the actual facts about Donald Trump.

Trump is certainly conservative enough from a policy perspective, and is a great candidate when considered in light of his leadership qualities.

Vote Trump

Another nice post, Sargon. A lot of us are tired of fighting the establishment candidate Cruz.

We want to see Trump get after Hillary. But that’s a little hard with this tiny GOP-e Chihuahua refusing to release its sharp teeth from his ankle.

The thing about Cruz that irritates me most is his smarmy rhetoric, most recently his melodramatic “Indiana is my Alamo!” pronouncement.
So that gets the rest of us—who would actually like to beat Hitlery, and like a bass drum this fall—thinking, “Really? You’ll finally agree that it’s `game/set/match’?”

But, no. We, um, misunderstood. Felito has bailed on Indiana and is bothering Californians now.

I don’t know how long he has been registered what, but I do know that in 2008, he was singing the praises of how Hillary Clinton would be the best president ever, and saying he would do anything he could to get her elected.

cut the taxes.

“You've seen my statements. I do very well. I don't mind paying a little more in taxes. The middle class is getting clobbered in this country,” Donald Trump August 2015.

“And I want to go further and impose what I call a ‘Fair Share Surcharge’ on multimillionaires because right now we're behind and we need to get the wealthy and the corporations to pay more [of] their fair share so I can keep my promise,” she continued. “Which is: I will not raises taxes on the middle class.” Hillary Clinton January 2016

“Instead of a tax code that crushes innovation [and] imposes burdens on families struggling to make ends meet, imagine a simple flat tax that lets every American file his or her taxes on a postcard.” -Ted Cruz March 2015

“Abolish the IRS; take all 125,000 IRS agents, and put them on our southern border.” -Ted Cruz April 2015
