People who support Trump support rather than oppose entitlements and Big Government and don't care at all about much of anything in the right wing agenda except closing the borders, deporting illegals, and reversing free trade.
All of that is anathema to Wall Street conservatives like George Will, Paul Ryan, Marco Rubio, and Mitch McConnell.
It squares only with some parts of the agenda of the paleocons - the neo-Confederate, birther, and racist wing of the party.
Don't listen to the lie that Trump supporters are regulation conservatives throwing a tantrum, angry at "establishment" Republicans for not actually repealing Obamacare - and CHIPS, Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security, for not abolishing the IRS, for not abolishing deficit spending and the national debt, and so on.
All of that is bluff and ballocks.
Donald Trump is an unscrupulous, megalomaniacal demagogue who saw that the biggest and angriest and most totally neglected faction of the Republican Party was white working class people driven into the fold by the anti-white outlook so strong on the left and seduced by the dog-whistling Buchananism of the right.
And he has taken over the party and pushed conservatism aside by promising to at last give those folks their way.
