Conservatism is dead.
The forces that will defeat the red guards and alter or abolish the forces in power, and then institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness, will not be in the least conservative.
I don’t believe that. I believe things go in circles, and there will be a conservative President again, in response to the obscene liberalism going on now. 2016 would have been the natural conservative cycle, but Trump co-opted it. He got the conservative vote but didn’t rule like one. Things like the debt and another real war will eventually force reality back on us.
