True conservatives would leave before moderate Republicans. Trump is the most moderate the GOP has seen in a long time. And I don't know if true conservatives would really let Hillary win.
Agreed,
Why would moderate Republicans leave the party when Trump is essentially one of them.
Can we dispel with this fiction that Trump is a moderate already? Wanting to build a wall and ban all Muslim immigration cancels out whatever moderate views on other issues he may have.
Trump wants to keep the social safety net in check, doesn't care very much about gays and abortion, and would rather cut taxes for the middle and lower classes moreso than focusing on tax cuts for his income bracket.
He's the very
definition of a moderate.
