The only policies I know of are fairly mainstream

The immigration system is broken--check
The need to have secure borders-check
Those here illegally should be dealt with according to law-check
Trade deals like NAFTA etc were one-sided ..color me undecided on this.. but it is a mainstream belief of many Democrats of which a large majority in Congress voted against
The trade imbalance with other countries particularly China is of concern--check.
Many Islamic countries despise America and the West in general;;true enough
The Islamic State should be utterly destroyed-check
There should be a temporary moratorium on immigration and visas of those from Islamic countries. Don't 100% agree but it should be severely limited at least for now. It is a privilege to come to the USA not a right.

My main concerns with Trump and why I do not support him for the GOP nomination is his child-like rants and general boorish behavior towards others who disagree with him, especially those in his own party. It's not how I was raised. Add to that my gut distrust of him..Prior to declaring for president he was a NY moderate to liberal who aligned himself more with Democrats than he did with Republicans. Even as early as 2013, for example, he was chastising Romney for his harsh and inhumane positions on immigration. In a documented interview he even went so far as to blame his loss on that immigration policy and the loss of Hispanic support because of it.

I just feel as though Trump may be a bait-and-switch artist and if elected would revert back to his more recent mainstream Democrat persona. I certainly don't buy into the left-wing agitators' rants, screeds and marches about Nazis, Racist's or any of the other usual boogeymen.

Who will I vote for come November? Color me undecided at this point. The choices aren't stellar from my point of view. The only nominees I have unequivocally supported were McGovern in 1972 ( my first vote ) and Reagan in 1984. Since then it has been all downhill. and this year will likely be no exception.
