“Sorry but the word “Conservative” has officially lost all meaning.”

I was surprised to hear Hannity refer to Trump’s stand on the trade agreements as NOT being conservative. Evidently Hannity believes that calling for the de-industralization of the United States is a conservative principle.

Or, maybe he is dumb enough to think that criticizing the trade agreements is criticizing trade itself. The two concepts are not identical.

I think you have it.

They say "trade" and don't realize that not all trades are equal. They say "free trade" and don't seem to realize that is totally dependent on the two who are trading being equal.

Free trade with Canada is probably a good thing, free trade with Mexico is not.
