My thinking is that the GOP does not represent conservatives and conservatives deny this fact. The GOP is intent on beating the dems at their game, being schoozy with the media and the public, wile pretending to be conservative. It’s a loser position in any situation.
Conservatives deny it.
Marco Rubio is seen as a consrvative, yet there is no evidence.
He is a complete complete dooofus jumping around to get a drink of water. AND he gulped! Audibly.
he had spent the previous hour or so taping a response in spanish, so he was revved up, nervous and thirsty, and ill prepared logistically to give that speech which everyone pretends to love.
It’s a metaphor for these guys. They’re trying to please everyone, of course they can’t.
They’re worse than the dems. THe dems have a principal: get in and stay in paower no matter what including destroying the country. Lie to the voters and dumb them down so they’re gullible, in order to do so.
The GOP has no principals so they lose with everyone especially the media who do a Lucy with the football and succeed fro the sam reson she does - doofusness of her opponent..
Conservatives don’t want to admit it.
Yup. And worse, a lot of ‘conservatives have a sXXt fit when their fantasy is called into question. I was raised believing that part of the whole concept of conservative included a refusal to deny reality. No longer is this true.
Sure, there’s still a core of us that refuse to lie to themselves like liberals, but today, most conservatives have greatly diminished the brand through their actions.
But ‘we’ are ‘purists’ and thus the ‘problem’. Of course the opposite of purity is corruption so I’m good with the purist title.
