I don’t agree that the term ‘Conservatism’ deserves the bad rap that it gets. To me, conservatism has always meant doing what’s best for the country, and in the 1990s, we needed to crush unions (who literally HATE this country), and the best way was with free trade. But it went too far, obviously, and we got China and an army of middle-class Americans thrown out of work.

So we SELF-CORRECTED with Trump. Time to bring the work back here (hopefully without the union crap), while the Democrats became took over the Globalism.

In my lifetime the Democrats have been on the WRONG SIDE of every damn issue in this country (other than, maybe, going to the moon). They LOVED Russian when Russia was threatening to level our cities, they HATED Reagan for wanting to defend those same cities, and then they HATED Russia once they stopped threatening us.

They are totally f’d up, and yet here we are...

We're here because the Dhimmicrats blatantly stole the election. And most republicans loved it.

So it wasn't the best way then. Admit it..
