Depends on the definition of ‘conservative.’
Apparently there are pro abortion, pro gun-control, pro open-borders / amnesty types who call themselves ‘conservative.’
For some reason.

For those raised in conservative homes, conservatism seems to be innate.

However, for those who discover conservatism on their own (those not having had a decent upbringing), it is often a journey (e.g. they get mugged, or finally look closely at their pay stubs, etc.). For these I cut a little slack - as some folks are just a little slow to figure things out.

Where conservatives often fail is not letting other (potential) conservatives “come to Jesus” in their own time. Too often we are guilty of rejecting “the good” - simply because it is not “the perfect”.

So this election cycle, I’m happy to welcome folks into the tent if they simply recognize that Clinton is evil. If they can figure that much out, the rest (pro-life, 2A, etc.) may eventually come.

Bottom line: we need every swinging d@ck we can get (like they say in the Corps)!
