I don't think it matter a hill of beans if Trump is a Conservative. I do think it's annoying a "F" that "Conservative" voters are like, "I'm not voting for Trump because he's not a Conservative." Meanwhile, we all know that not voting for Trump would be a vote for Hillary. Is Hillary a Conservative? Does she deserve your golden Conservative vote?
I find it cute that you choose to ignore every poll that shows Trump <i>can't</i> beat Hillary just because you wishfully think he can.
I don't know if the polls are accurate or have any predictive value whatsoever. But, I do know that historically, he who has led by "popularity" at this stage of the primary process did NOT win the presidency. At some point, people really do have to stop to think about what they are voting for.
Get off the Kool-aid BS.
Nope. You don't get to set the terms of the discussion just because you don't like what is being said.
Trump is a lying sack of feces and there is all manners of evidence, past and present, to demonstrate that.
Trump is not a conservative nor does he represent conservative (or libertarian) values. At all. There's all kinds of evidence, past and present, to demonstrate that.
The worst that would happen is 4 years of gridlock. And if your a Conservative then you should love the 4 years of gridlock.
Keep thinking that. It may be true; it may not. He'll be in the position to wreak a LOT of damage to this country, just as Obama and several of his predecessors have done.
The thing that is very different is that we, as a nation, are running out of "time" with some of this stuff. The Federal Reserve and global banking stuff that is going on under the surface (and is generally not being talked about) is going to come to head a some point. It bubbled up a bit in the last decade, but but the REAL crash is yet to happen. It may be during the next presidency or it may not; there's no way to no.
But, do you <i>really</i> think whatever is the status quo right now will continue? Is that even <i>possible</i>?
The best that could happen is Trump Wall is built and jobs come back to America...
Oh good grief. There will be no wall, and 'jobs coming back to America?" How do you get that when half the dang country doesn't WANT to work at all? Shoot, no one would work if they thought they could get away with it, and the .gov has been doing nothing but perpetuating that mindset.
Trump's going to magically fix the entire CULTURE? What a pipe dream. Like I said. Kool Aid.
The fact is... if you don't vote for Trump then your voting for Hillary.
Again, conveniently ignoring every single poll that shows Trump losing to Hillary. Wishful thinking does not make reality.
And, in the end, it does not really matter. If you think for one second Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are internally governed by fundamentally different political worldviews, again...Kool Aid. Sorry that hurts you somehow, but really. Facts are facts.
Who has the better odds in winning Trump or Cruz?
Again, completely ignoring a mass of poll data suggesting otherwise. I don't know if the data are accurate predictors or not, but at least the data is there and can be pointed at: "This is what people SAY they are going to do." And electing Trump over Hillary ain't it.
Sorry but Trump has better odds because his supporters are not republicans. Nothing about kool aid drinking, I'm being realistic.
Cite one single piece of actual data that shows Trump has better odds than Cruz OR Rubio of beating Hillary.
Here's an interesting read:
http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/03/of-course-donald-trump-can-beat-hillary-clinton/471879/The very second sentence: "Betting markets make Clinton the strong favorite"
And, a good closing paragraph:
"The thing about majoritarian government, though, is that nobody has to fool everybody all the time. Donald Trump’s objective couldn’t be clearer. He only has to fool half the people once."
Here's a summary of the Clinton-Trump polling data. This is not just ONE poll, or even just the Progressive MSM's results.

Yeah. Trump's our guy to beat Clinton. Sure.
