Trump will be a social liberal and a fiscal and foreign policy conservative, i.e., a much needed hybrid synthesis that will be hard to predict until his first year in office. One hopes that he will be anti-corruption and encourage a wave of anti-corruption citizens to run for office.
If it becomes a three way race and no one wins the minimun delegates needed (1270 I think) and goes to a brokered convention Rubio will have an excellent chance to win as he the second favorite and does not not have the enemies Trump and Cruz do.
At an ideology score of 1, Donald Trump is moderately conservative when it comes to defense/international issues. Trump is far more liberal than the average 2016 Republican Party presidential candidate.

@ Bear Klein:
Try asking an American. I like Trump because He puts to voice what I have been thinking.
Rubio is a way better candidate than McGovern or Romney.
They’re not.
He has been their financial benefactor.
He is one of them.
Trump is not just a country club Republican.
He owns the country club.
And don’t forget Rubio’s selling point.
He is most electable.
Just like McCain.
And Romney.
One of Latest Polls in IOWA had this:
Satistical dead head for top three Some other polls also showed close between Trump, Cruz, Rubio.

One can only hope !!!!!!!!!!!!!
If Trump becomes President, he may well dismantle much of Obama’s legislation and executive orders but I don’t see him prosecuting Obama or Hillary.
