But “He’s not a conservative.”
_____________________
I said “nor a _conservative as we have known them before_.”
Donald is a classical liberal. Originally, that was the basis for what we have called *conservatism*. Just as what we have called *liberalism* is authoritarian collectivism.
Labels morph over time. People’s viewpoints do, as well. At this point in time, both segments of the Uniparty are corrupt and neither present a viable governing ideology. Donald is bringing us back to a common sense, limited government as he dismantles the Administrative State. His POV is more inclusive than either present iteration of D or R.
He’s a maverick.
Maybe that's because we have never known any. Many may have only "talked, the talk"....but were all talk and no action.
Trump is a man of promises and action.
