Or did I, in fact, say I did not support him in either of his campaigns? Because, yes, that's what I actually did say. All I am doing is defending the right of the guy to run for president and the right of people to support him. At this stage in the primaries, voicing support for Trump is not nearly as stupid as the author makes it out to be.
If you are going to challenge a candidate's conservative credentials as nearly every GOP pundit or informed supporter seems to be claiming to be doing with Trump, why is he getting so much attention if he's just a big idiot, while people with nearly identical positions to his skate by, with the added point of having not accomplished nearly as much as Trump outside of politics.
The only point on which Trump is "conservative", though really it's just more of the same of his ugly personal brand of populism, is illegal immigration, which is also where your post went off the deep end, to a place where even the most basic facts can be completely ignored if inconvenient. What was that again about soundbites and scapegoating?
Again, what was wrong with that? How is it "ugly populism" unless you are going to descend in Salteresque psychoanalysis and imaginary extrapolations? What did I say that was factually incorrect, aside from conceding for argument's sake the low ball 11 million figure? Is it somehow immoral to object to the Democrats replaying their tactics from Bleeding Kansas 160 years ago, only with the whole country this time, just because some of the participants have darker skin?
