Please point out to me where, exactly, has the “conservatism of yesterday” reversed, stopped or even slowed down the leftist takeover of our institutions in the last 15 years or so? IIRC, the “compassionate conservative” Bush II got into office and oversaw the largest expansion of welfare since 1965, tried to get amnesty passed and ran up more debt than any president before him. The only reason Bush II does not look as bad as he should is that he was followed by the even more disastrous Obama. Is Bush II an example of the “conservatism of yesterday” you allude to? Trump’s cabinet appointees appear more conservative to me than anybody else’s I can remember. I think we should give Trump a chance to do his thing and see what happens. I think it is time to try something besides the standard GOPe plan/people and I am glad Trump appears to be doing just that.
