So Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America, is not a “conservative”.

I. Do . Not. Care.

However President Trump’s political philosophy may be described, it is highly effective, and more real positive change in the governance of this nation has been instituted in the past twenty-five and a half months, than had gone on before under the previous four Presidents, some twenty years. Not since Ronaldus Magnus have we had such a change agent in the Oval Office, and Trump may yet overtake the pace set so long ago in those days when it was “Morning again in America”.

Are you better off now than you were just two short years ago? Shall you continue to be better off as the election of 2020 continues to approach?

The pocketbook is a very powerful governor of our actions.

President Trump is a problem solver.

He sees an obvious problem that everyone agrees is a problem but no one is willing to tackle and he says, 'I'm going to solve this problem'.

Illegal immigration is a problem that needs to be solved.

Unfair trade deals are a problem.

The cost of NATO is a problem.

Nuclear N Korea and Iran are problems.

Everyone says these are problems WHY then do people not want to help him solve them?

Why do some Republicans actively fight him?

These are issues Americans want fixed and Trump has said he is willing to take them on.

These are WINNING issue with the American people AND for Republicans.

And yet, some Republicans are part of the 'Resistance'.

It makes you wonder if some Republicans actually want to solve these problems and only use them as taking points to get elected or there are other factors we don't know about.

I'm not even sure what the word "conservative" means anymore. Frankly, I don't really care, either. The administration of George W. Bush was a real eye-opener for me. I have my own political standards, and after the disgraceful idiocy this country went through with that family of Republican @ssholes in the White House I sure as hell have no interest in letting some pr!cks like Bill Kristol and Mitt Romney define what "conservative" political standards are supposed to be.

Trump is a patriotic pragmatist. In the service of America’s interest, he deals in reality. And as Maggie Thatcher reminded us, “the facts of life are conservative.” So Trump by default ends up doing conservative things. It is not an ideology to him. It is just common sense.

I haven’t done my taxes yet; I’ll get back to you. I know one key deduction for mileage was removed (reason: It was being “abused”) and yet I’m still paying for millions of illegals. I sense politics are inhibiting some solid initiatives and have expectations in his 2nd term. SOLID expectations.

Notably, the author calls GW a “failure” yet proffers that we all heap onto NeverTrumpers and give them hell.

Ironically, the OP was a rabid, name-calling GW water carrier and apparently doesn’t see the hypocrisy.

ROFLMAO. Emotions & politics should never mix.

Trump is not really a conservative, because in the current culture there is not much left to "conserve". What Trump really is, is a nationalist. I regard myself as a nationalist too.

What is a nationalist? Someone who cares more about the well-being of people who are members of his nation, than for people who are NOT of his nation. This is very upsetting to people who have spent most of their lives declaring they are NOT interested in being members of our nation.
