No, it’s that most mainstream “conservatives” have proven to be FAKE, NOT “failed”.

[ManHunter]

Agreed! Populist parties are rising because mainstream conservatives AREN’T (conservatives)!

I don’t agree that its just the Republican party. That’s where the focus is now due to primaries but if you listen to CSPAN or radio shows the Trump supporters are often Democrats or Independents. The entire government betrayed the people.

Case in point, Obamacare. No one wanted it except hard core communists yet Democrats shoved it down our throats. Most if not all of those Senators have retired or been voted out of office.

They’ve all approved the open border, foreigners dancing across the non-existent line to undercut American wages, sell drugs, or whatever. That’s because of the big money behind amnesty but still, we the people get screwed.

I could go on, Iran with a nuclear future that threatens Israel and the U.S. in particular, gun control, limits on free speech and the beat goes on. Bottom line, if Trump gets the nomination, he’ll be President and it won’t just be Republicans who put him there.

Yes. Most of those in Washington & in the media, who call themselves "Conservative," are not Conservative. They call themselves Conservative to persuade actual Conservative Americans to trust them. As their true colors become apparent; their temporary support evaporates.

Most of those being called "populist" are decidedly more Conservative than the false variety posing as such--very decidedly more Conservative!
