Why? Trump has always been pretty much an old 90s-era NYC liberal.

It's just as well. The country has moved much further to the left over the years to the point that a traditional 80s-era conservative probably couldn't get elected.

True statement.

Also, 1980’s conservatives never had sufficient legislative numbers until 1994 to do anything.

It’s pretty easy to be a hardcore conservative when you’re always in the minority.
