100% fiscal conservatism, 80% social conservatism. That’s what Reagan believed. We can disagree on 20% of the social issues and still be friends and allies.
I agree. Like it or not, the most successful candidate is fiscally conservative but reflects their voters' social views. I suspect the reason the GOP is winning is because the social and fiscal conservatives are so terrified of authoritarianism that social issues have been pushed to the back burner, thus truly uniting the party.
