For a number of years I have been critical of Conservatives because they never were in favor of securing our borders or enforcing our immigration laws. Conservatives are not Patriots. As a Patriot I also dreamed and prayed that a Patriot would get into the White House. Now that we have summon to lead us I never imagined that Many Conservatives would not support this person regardless of his gruff and overly aggressive I tactful persona. I agree with the previous comment that said that Conervative movement is showing itself to be somewhat irrelevant. We need a fighter to save Western Civilization from our arch enemy Islam. Are we not at war. Trump is the warrior that got the nod.

Poor sports one & all. He won, you lost, get over it and lastly, he is the will of the people and I mean the majority of the people. Get over yourself it’s a new day. Or keep going in this direction, lose all face. That works too. We the people are jet too tired F your sad sack self! National Review and Erik Erickson are done, close the books and go home. We will not miss you. Your time is over!

Not one of these men are actual conservatives, libertarians or constitutionalists. We don’t need Uni-party Establishmentarians in the GOP.

For the record, fusionism as a concept dates back to the 1950s, although it is commonly understand as an informal alliance between socially conservative traditionalists and libertarians.

Cruz was no conservative as anyone can learn by googling the word “neoconservative”. Cruz can be called a Fusionist. Fusionism was invented by Bush Seniors people after he lost in 1992.Cruz became a senior policy advisor for W ten years later.Fusionism entails first: a supposedly libertarian financial policy which really means the Fed can print money at will, diluting the savings of hard working Americans. Second: an interventionist foreign policy of making sure the US remains the sole superpower, which means actively trying to weeken Putin by provoking him and the Russians. third: a concentration on religious issues, or social conservativism. These socons joined with feminist married women in 2006 and have been as active in interfering with the sex lives of hetero males as they are in seeking battle with gays. Trump showed that Fusionism is at best a distraction because real conservative voters want to stop illegal immigration, ISIS, the unnecessary cold war with Russia and TPP/TPIP.

Give us more credit than that. We,The 12 million, knew Cruz was a warmongering neocon globalist lackey and could discuss that issue all day and night.

You are overlooking something. George Will may have been right in saying that Trump supporters not only think that conservative commentators are irrelevant but that the principles of limited government etc don’t matter much either. Look at the general acceptance of same-sex marriage by the public, and indeed the absolute refusal of Trump supporters to allow any rational discussion of any issue. They were looking for a man on horseback and have found, I dare say, their Evita.

Verbose, but he does not delineate any actual delusion on the part of Donald Trump.
Perhaps the writers’ problem is that he simply does not understand common sense when stated more bluntly than he is accustomed to hear it.
