The problem is, most Republicans refused to fight Obama and the Dems. Which is one reason Trump is winning.
Bravo Ben!
The race has avoided policy discussions? How about the on me that started June 16, 2015 when Trump said he’ll build a wall?
I don’t like it much either, Ben, but the lying GOPe Congresscritters who broke all of their campaign promises brought this on.
Cruz 2016 or Trump you all into dust!
Another professional “conservative” heard from. Funny how they have no problem with American industry moving wholesale to other countries. Conservatism without nationalism is a fraud. Trump is a nationalist.
Think about it, what have “Conservatives’ done in thirty years? Not a single damn thing. Its time for a Nationalist.
“Conservatism without nationalism is a fraud. Trump is a nationalist.”
Well put.
Nothing conservative about a 500% increase in H-1B visas, or TPP, unless conservatism means hating American workers.
Yup, that’s Cruz’s “conservatism”.
inaction is what trumped conservative thought.
I hope for some conservative action from a questionable conservative rather than a lot of conservative thought from a consistent/pure/established conservative.
A wall and opposition to 20% of the Ds policies would be a YUGE improvement. Opposing 20% of the Rs policies would be nice too since they seem to act with the Ds.
No sale for me, regarding Cruz.
Not a bad article. You have to take Flint into account, though. Madoff, too, for that matter. And you can throw in ISIS.
Right now, people are more concerned about their immediate safety than about devolving power to states and communities.
So in that sense, a conservative attitude of responsibility does beat out the idea of returning to some less centralized system of government in the minds of voters.
Carrier HVAC company just announced that they’re moving out of Indy to...... MEXICO!
About 2000 jobs... :::: poof! :::
Win or lose, Trump will show his true colors soon enough. At least I’ll get to say “I told you so” to all the former conservatives bedazzled by Trump’s shiny words. Small consolation for bigger government.
I agree with what you said
The word "conservatism" has no real meaning at this point. I've switched it out for Nationalism and Patriotism and I'll take a Nationalist/Patriot over a 21st century "Conservative" any day of the week.
PS: He had me at wall.
Free Traitors™ are rejoicing now.
I want somebody who is both WILLING to fight, and ABLE to WIN the fight.
we have to keep the car from falling off the cliff. Calling for a moratorium on Islamic immigration is CONSERVATIVE as hell.
Trying to get homeschooled kiddos in the clutches of the Feds is not: http://www.newswithviews.com/Hoge/anita123.htm
I hate to say it but conservatism does not appear to work for conservatives.Thanks to immigration we are probably close to living in a post conservative world. It looks like it only works for the boys at the chamber of commerce and they are the ones who colluded with the Democrats to put us where we are. Maybe it is time for them to start paying all of those taxes any way.
