“We have a country to save.”
Not much else matters in the long run...
“And that’s before we get to the issue that will give the next president an imprint on America lasting until the grandchildren are grown: the Supreme Court.
It is an unpardonable disconnect for any constitutional conservative to show nonchalance or outright approval as Hillary Clinton plots a savaging of the Bill of Rights.”
*BUMPITY-BUMP-BUMP-BUMP*
Now, we have three parties.
The republicans, the ‘rats and the Trump Party.
I like it! Although in my view the republicans and the rats are one party.
I continue to contribute to the Trump campaign directly, and to the FR and NRA.
Those that do not support can be further divided into two groups, those that are ignorant and those that are complicit.
Money line - we must ask ourselves which we are and those who fall into Hillary's camp need to be ostracized.
When even a squish like Mark Davis notices that there is a problem...
What does that mean? What's your point?
True that.
If there was any hope in the RNC distancing themselves from the ‘rats, Ryan destroyed that hope in one short day.
Stayed tuned. There’s so much happening today [newswise], my head is spinning.
I do not believe that Trump is nearly as "conservative" as many Freepers seem to want to believe. I expect there is going to be quite a bit of buyers remorse on this site during his presidency if he's elected. I suspect he's not going to be nearly as hard-line on the Supreme Court and Second Amendment (to pick two issues out of my hat) as we'd like for him to be. However, in order to put it in perspective, you have to consider how huge a threat the alternative is on both of those issues. I'm not normally a pragmatic kind of guy, but in this particular case, we really, really do not have a choice at this point. Like the author, I preferred Cruz in the primary, though he's been a bit of a disappointment since the nomination. Despite that, I'm all in for Trump. There simply is no alternative to that. The fact that McCain can't hold his nose to pull for Trump strikes me as the hight of hypocrisy, given that he and his surrogates were demanding the same of is not all that terribly long ago.
Tough times does not create character, it reveals it.
A good self-examination piece. Thanks for posting it.
The subdivisions of conservatism contain many corridors for channeling a love of liberty, smaller government and rule of law...
That discussion is for another day. From right now until the polls close November 8, there are only two kinds of conservatives: those willing to join the fight to protect America from a Hillary Clinton presidency, and those who, for whatever tortured reason they have fashioned, are unwilling.
There is the essence of the thread, and it can't be repeated often enough.
Very well said and HAPPY COLUMBUS DAY! to you too.
‘Tis called Irony, my dear RedNeck
LoL
It’s is very ironic.
History plays out a lot of ironic things all right.
Well, I will most gladly take the irony. What got going with George Washington and his friends had been planned by heaven long ago, and when it needs something, the Lord does not necessarily have to raise up a pure philosopher for its sake. Donald Trump has been blessed with a sense of what America needs, and this is overriding many of his preconceived ideas. Could we have hoped to have seen more achieved with a second coming of Ronald Reagan? Well, history is soon about to play out the answer.
