A conservative who supports big government is a liberal who calls himself conservative
Which is what Rubio is
Conservative is, and I paraphrase f not quote mark levin, not an ideology.
Liberalism, socialism, now, I would say, environmentalism, are ideologies. They follow ways of thinking that followers must follow and try to convert others into following in order for them to work
Conservative does not depend on everyone following it. When the country doesn’t follow it the country flounders. But conservative does not.
It is a proven successful way of life it’s common sense.
So the definitionn of conservative doesn’t change according to people’s ideas. Rubio can say he’s a conservative but that does not mean he is one. He doesn’t have the power to change its definition
No one does
