My parents were in y'all shoes and made the same mistakes. I wasn't alive for HW but was a child for all of W. I wanted my parents vote for Romney just so Obama would be gone but fuck, Mittens was so gay and even I sensed it.
GHWB was when I unenrolled from the GOP. Probably on the "New World Order" line. Have remained small-c conservative ever since. Unenrolled is the best option, let them wonder where you stand and not think they have your vote in the bag. Like that matters now.
"You all"? Not me. I've always said immigration should be controlled, and we should keep our troops home. The troops aren't protecting us if they're in 100 other countries. The Constitution says that the federal government is to protect our country.
Trump isn't a conservative. He was a lifelong Dem 20 years ago. He's only a conservative now because the corporate funded communists (funny how that works) have pushed this country so far to the left that anyone with their eyes open is now a conservative.
Yeah, it's wiki but Trump has been conservative or conservative leaning longer than as a democrat and so what? If you'd actually followed him you know he's been a nationalist first & foremost since he emerged as a public figure in the 80s. He's never not espoused a pro-USA stance.
Well that's BS; the Bush years had the exact opposite effect for me. Starting with 9/11 and ending with "immigration reform" fiasco with Mexican nationals rioting all over CA and Medicare Part-D thrown in for good measure. Also put me on the path of "This whole thing is fucking rigged!".
Anyone who entered illegally, by themselves or through illegitimate governments, should fuck off. Along with anyone who came to commit crimes or be a parasite.
Conservatism has never meant cheap labor and cheap nannies.
It has always meant 'preserve what is good and right, because those things are hard to build and easy to destroy".
Also, "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness". I let you live in peace, you let me live in peace. Liberty is freedom FROM government, within the boundaries of civility and good behavior. The government exists simply to defend the nation, not dictate every aspect of people's lives. The pursuit of happiness is my ability to take hold of whatever opportunity is out there and make my family's life good by it. No filters, no manipulation, sink or swim by one's own merit and industry. This is all worth preserving and conserving.
Funny, if we had just stuck to the 10 Commandments, we wouldn't be in such a fix.
You heard the recent call-in interview, right? Trump bewoes the waning influence of Israel over Congress, he said Israel had power over Congress "rightfully so" and implies it should come back again. So yeah, he's not a neocon in some ways but he still wants Israel first in U.S. policies foreign and otherwise. Think about that, how well that's done for us up to this point.
Out of control immigration, if we can call it that, with all these migrant caravans ripe with trafficked humans, is nothing more than the beginning of our country's down fall. Actually, one of the cogs of the downfall.
Brining in these folks (by design) coupled with the CRT education bullshit they are pushing will brainwash these peeps to obedient slaves that have no original history or understanding of the founding of America.
This is how they erase and rewrite history. It is happening now right in front of us.
Trump is actually a classical liberal, a believer in individual liberty and Constitutional rights. Conservatives want to conserve practices and traditions. Progressives want progress toward Communism. Classical liberals want to conserve good and useful traditions, let people enjoy their liberty, creating, contributing, and let progress unfold organically, with people being enticed and persuaded to embrace new and appealing inventions, practices, and beliefs, not coerced, deceived, robbed, locked down, and mandated until, sick and broke, they have no other option than to submit.
Bush was never a conservative. Moderate GOPe, deepstate swamp creature. I have been holding my nose voting for establishment R since I've been old enough to vote from 2005.
Ive always thought of Trump as being a party of his own, the MAGA party. He’s really not a conservative in the traditional sense, and def not a dem. I think he faked caring about 2 specific conservative values (being pro life and Christianity) to lock down the conservative vote. He couldn’t have won without them. He then used his power to further ground for the patriots and fight the deep state.
The Bush years
The scam was 'we will fight them over there, so we won't have to fight them over here'.
The reality was they just wanted to rape and pillage the middle east to set up illegal trade in weapons, drugs and children.
I voted for HW twice and GW twice and I regret it. I didn't know what a RINO was. I thought they were good people.
Me too my fren. I was conned. Hell I voted for that asshat Romney.
Fuck, I MET Romney and have a photo with him. He was my first vote for President. Ass hat. Feels so good to be awake now.
My first vote for President was Bob Dole. Imagine how history would have been different.
Dang you’ve come a long way

I never felt Trump was a conservative, more of a classic liberal.

Trump is a patriot. Patriots value their country and the citizens.
That and belief in God is all you really need for a good country.
Need mass deportation.
Anyone who entered illegally, by themselves or through illegitimate governments, should fuck off. Along with anyone who came to commit crimes or be a parasite.
I've never bought into the lie that we need to import the dregs of the 3rd world because we need someone to fill jobs.
It's always been a bullshit argument
Agreed

What’s wrong with populism? Power to the people, that’s what it means. I’m populist.

He'll be a conservative when he stops pushing LGBT, pro-Israel and other inherently Antichrist degeneracy and evils.
He gets credit for waking people up to the media lies. But don't pretend he's something that he isn't.
