“Is this what we’ve been reduced to? Ridiculous fairy tales from the Evertrumper crowd? Sad!”
Read the other threads, and the answer is “yes”
I know Trump is fighting everyone on all sides. I also know that he is the only candidate that had a snowball’s chance in hell of fighting the corruption. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to condone everything he does, when it is against the best interest of this country. We are conservatives, we are not blind followers.
“We are conservatives, we are not blind followers”
Might be true for thee and me, but if you’ve been reading FR for the past two years, you know it is not “we.”
We are conservatives, we are not blind followers. Nobody says you have to be. But withdrawing your support for President Trump for signing a 6-month spending bill when there's a God d-mn coup on is the pinnacle of #NeverTrump crack smoking. So don't condone that he signed it, and do keep supporting him.
#NeverTrump is as #NeverTrump does...
"....But that doesn’t mean I’m going to condone everything he [Trump] does, when it is against the best interest of this country. We are conservatives, we are not blind followers...."Ah, and therein lies the rub.
Trump is not an ideologue. He's not hard-core conservative and can seem outright liberal at times.
But forgive him. He's a businessman at heart and not a politician. That is a good thing.
If we think we elected a true conservative, think again. While Trump has done a tremendous amount of work undoing what Obama did during his 8 years, he has not ever said he was a true conservative.
He has done some things better than Ronald Reagan but why do conservatives insist on purity in their leaders? No one is like that. If they were, they probably wouldn't have been elected.
Trump is doing a great job. Give him credit.
Is Trump perfect? No. Is he exceptional? Yes, absolutely.
We should count our blessings and stop complaining we didn't get everything we wrote to Santa about that we wanted for Christmas.
