Wow.

I’m a conservative because I get to define what conservative is.

In describing herself, she just also described every GOPe officeholder at election time.

And of course, Trump is also a conservative because I get to define him how I want to be so. She also described the whole Trump movement, actual objective measures of conservatism be damned.

Her anger is totally justified.

These critics watched the past 7 years as Obama laid waste to our military, sold weapons to the drug lords, went to war with Christians, let the IRS savage the TEA Party and nobody was held accountable.

Try again. She didn’t say that she gets to define what it is. She said the people whining about Trump’s conservatism are failures who never got anything done.

What I've observed recently is that Free Republic is no longer a reliable conservative forum. Celebrity, wealth, anger, and vindictiveness "trump" conservatism with many. People are selling their souls right and left for a charlatan. What's worse, they freely admit they don't care a whit about conservatism. All they care about is winning and sticking it to those they're angry with.

Pyrrhic victories are not worth it.
