You know, during the last election cycle, we were being sold on what a top-notch, sturdy “conservative” that Paul Ryan was. He was put on the ticket to counterbalance, and calm down those that were worried over Romney’s liberalism. And what do we witness after the election? Ryan pushing for open-borders amnesty, funding Obamacare, blown-out budgets, and embracing homo-marriage. And “National Review” itself was on-board with the vast majority of this. Ditto FoxNews.

With stuff like this, even the term “conservatism” is subject to intense wariness. Maybe Trump doesn’t entirely reflect the base, but at this point, of being constantly lied to, constantly backstabbed, it doesn’t really matter anymore. I’m more apt to just go with someone who is guaranteed to knock over tables and totally alter the entire, corrupt paradigm. There gets to be a point where there is nothing left to lose. And looking at this country as it now exists, there is indeed nothing left to lose.

But what if Trumps negatives are so high that Hillary wins and we have a left-wing Supreme Court for life. Shouldn’t this scare us?
