The establishment are the ones claiming that Trump is not a conservative.
A true conservative? Supports appointing Conservative judges to the SCOTUS Supports the 2nd amendment Supports pro-life policies Supports Securing our border and deporting criminal illegals Supports Defunding santuary cities Supports Lower Taxes Supports Putting local control of schools (Repealing of Common Core) Supports Repealing and replacing Obamacare
Trump checks everyone of these listed. Any establishment Republican (Bushes, media, donor class, wall street bankers) voting against Trump is voting for the following:
Supports appointing Liberal judges to the SCOTUS Supports gun control Supports abortion--evens wants to repeal the Hyde amendment Supports open borders Supports santuary cities Supports Higher taxes Supports Common Core (Jeb does) Supports Obamacare (Bill even said it is a crazy plan)
Any Republican who supports the above listed...is not a conservative. The establishment are mad because they had picked Jeb for the nomination and Trump came in and represented the people the establishment have been ignoring for 30 yrs. And took it away from baby brother Bush.
What Trump policy does the establiment disagree with? Trump was against the Iraq war. Trump does not want their money Against Free Trade agreements (Send Our Jobs to other Country agreements). Coincidentally these are also things that Bernie Sanders and Trump are in agreement on.

Pretty complete but left off fiscal responsibility and conservatism............that's a big one. Individuals, families, companies, and governments all benefit from living within their means. Obama has had no restraints on his check writing and we will suffer from that irresponsibility for many years.
I actually left that off because Trump's plans are said to increase our debt (So does Hillary's) and I don't know of a Rep in the past that has not also increased the debt...(Yes this also applies to the Dem as well)
You are the one who made a list entitled "A true conservative?............." You left off a feature of true conservatism. That's all I'm saying. It doesn't seem hard to me.
