My 'cancer to conservatism', right or wrong!
Rick Perry, who earlier called Donald Trump a "cancer to conservatism" and "a toxic mix of demagoguery and nonsense”, announced he will be supporting Donald Trump in the fall.
It's no longer 'my country, right or wrong'. It's 'my party, right or wrong'.

Is this close to Ajax's position on Donald Trump?

Perry wants to be VP. The glasses till don't help.

Donald won me over when he got serious about enforcing the border and protecting American jobs. Unless he does a 180 on that, I'll be loyal to Trump from this day forward.
And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Because I care about enforcing the border and protecting American jobs for the American people? If that's fascism, than I'll proudly wear that label.

Re: My 'cancer to conservatism', right or wrong!
No, it's because you profess loyalty to a politician. Like a good little follower.
I have yet in my years on this planet encountered a politician I'd proclaim myself 'loyal' to. They're people, with ideas. Some of the ideas I agree with, some I don't.
But you just keep goose stepping along. Jawohl, Mein Fuhrer.

Re: My 'cancer to conservatism', right or wrong!
I was pointing out my loyalty to the Republican party. As I've said before, I held my nose and voted for John McCain in 2008. We didn't demand a third party or say we couldn't support him because he wasn't our preferred candidate. When the general election came, we chose the lesser of two evils.

Ajax is basically a Robert Byrd Democrat.
Case in point:

and
http://www.ontheissues.org/Internationa ... _Trade.htm
I don't have a single link for it, but he was also famous for sneaking in protectionist amendments into bills.
