“How do we expect to ever restore marriage when we’re expected to constantly fend off even more radical LGBT demands from within our own tent?”

“Conservatives” wanted Government to define marriage. They did.

How do you like it?

“When Trump seeks out your sage advice let us know.”

We beat up RINOs here for being out of touch with Trump’s populist base - but I guess it’s ok for Trump to have people working for him that effectively gives Trump’s base the finger, ...according to your idea of ‘building coalitions’.

No thanks.

I always thought that is what a true conservative stood for. I agree with your post.

"Not much different than Cruz going Cancun while his voters were freezing back in Texas."

Exactly, because that was a nothingburger. As much as it pains me to defend Tedlim, that was nothing but an MSM ginned-up Narrative brought on by Mrs. Cruz Facebook circle.

Do you have Facebook?

Schlicter is advocating for the failed "Big Tent" strategy that has doomed the Republican Party for decades.

Our strength is in free-market policy solutions and standing strong for Christian principles that simply cannot be compromised. Also, a live and let live philosophy that by default should attract homosexuals to the party itself just as long as that philosophy doesn't abridge the Christian foundation that the party should stand on.

Republicans have already sold out on so-called gay marriage and funding for abortions. If ever there was a hill to die on, it's now transgenderism and advocating for homosexual rights that go above and beyond to what individuals already have under the Constitution.

I take a MAGA fighter like Grenell over an empty suit careerist like “good Christian” Pence any day of the week.

Conversion therapy......I am a woman & I would never be with a man who is gay & has gone thru conversion therapy. If you are a gay man you are NOT going to be straight after some hack “therapy.” It’s ludicrous.

LGBT is cancer on western civilization and the family unit.

“Carnival Act”

I searched for this and couldn’t find it. Happen to have any good links?

“But Grenell and his allies didn’t debate any of that. In fact, they obscured it with feel-good rhetoric about personal acceptance, in effect signaling that debating these issues is verboten unless we want to get branded as bigots.”

BS. While I’d have preferred that Grenell mention parenthetically that he opposes the Log Cabin agenda, his failure to do so does not imply what the above passage claims - which may be why they used the weasel-word “signals” much like the Left talks about “dog whistles.”

I did, until Grenell equated someone who has an issue with Drag Queens testifying to the Senate with being anti-gay. Two TOTALLY different things...except for people pushing the Drag Queen agenda on conservatives.

As far as Pence, it was STUPID OF US to pin all our hopes on him. He was simply the last person who had a chance to stop us from destroying ourselves...something which started 70 years ago, when the ‘Greatest Generation’ didn’t bother to tell their kids why they should defend America.

Grenell advanced Trump’s populist agenda. A fact lost on fools too stupid to notice.

He did that by NOT shoving Drag Queens in our faces. If he stuck to that, we wouldn’t be arguing now.

As sinner I don’t judge others...that is Gods right ,not mine!!!!

We judge people all the time. I don’t like bank robbers, rapists, murderers, abortionists, liberals. That is making a judgment.

Why are you arguing about it? You don’t spend any time at all on Twitter, isn’t that correct?

We don’t need this Drag Queen crap in my face, and Grenell knows this. Maybe Trump will explain to him the need to treat the Republican base with RESPECT, as Trump did by never having Drag Queens anywhere near him.

I thought CPAC was supposed to advocate for conservative positions and limited government....the kind of government the Founders gave us.

I don't think the Founders advocated "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of buggery."

I thought they adopted a son.

Maybe it’s someone else’s kid in many of his IG posts?
