Your 'Reagan era Republican' label is very fitting. The same is true, in reverse, for Trump. He's much more liberal than he's pretending and will give Republicans nightmares if elected.

This election is just a sad state of affairs for where our politics are. The choice is between a shady, neocon Democrat or a crazy, left leaning Republican. 

I agree.

But Trump has a "Superpower" among modern politicians: He can completely flip on issues without losing popularity from his base. It is actually somewhat astounding. I'll bet he hardly loses any of his base when he flips liberal for general election to pick up more votes.
