Very important to note who screams about this, or deflects.
Including here.
You are correct. This is Never Trump bullshit trying to embrace some sort of traditional measure of conservatism instead of what the rank and file wants for conservatism, namely:
Drain the Swamp
Build the Wall
America First In All Things
Pro Life
Pro Guns.
More or less in that order. THAT is Conservatism. Not “cut taxes so the Chamber of Commerce is funded in their efforts to bring in illegals. Not career politicians who never gave a damn about American jobs going to China.
Conservatism is that list above. Who does not and HAS not embraced it, is not Conservative.
