Trump Endorser Bobby Knight: 'I Don't Know What a Conservative Is'

Donald Trump scored a major endorsement from a very beloved Indiana hero, Hoosier basketball coach Bobby Knight. The endorsement serves to give an important boost to help Trump win the state in his march to the nomination. But on CNN Tonight with Don Lemon Thursday when asked to respond to critics that suggest Trump was not a real conservative Knight admitted, “You know, I'm not sure what a conservative is.”

“I don't know whether a conservative is a guy that goes to bed too early or maybe doesn't sleep long enough or just what the hell he might be,” the coach explained. “I don't know. Maybe he's a guy that -- you know, he just wants to be real quiet. I don't know what a conservative is,” he continued.

For those who might have forgotten a conservative believes in limited government, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, fiscal responsibility, and traditional values. Conservatives also stick to their convictions and don’t waiver easily. Many in the Republican Party argue that Trump does not fit this description of a conservative. It is well known that Trump hold beliefs that don’t coincide with conservatism, such as the abuse of eminent domain and allowing transgendered people use the rest room inconsistent with the gender on their birth certificate. Liberals have actually praised Trump for some of his positions calling him a Moderate.
===========================================
This is funny because Bobby Knight is plain speaking and popular. This little clip speaks volumes for regular Americans.

I haven't been paying too much attention to Newsbusters since Trump's election took off. Brent Bozell the CEO of newsbusters have gone off the deep end along with the establishment jerks like those on American Thinker. These guys just don't understand what Populism is and they can't deal with it.
