Conservatism has failed people for over ten years. Conservatism needs to be retooled so that it produces something here. Right now conservatism is an untested academic exercise.

It's a repudiation of politicians like Rubio and Cruz will say and do whatever it takes for forward THEIR objectives whether it benefits the American people or not.

Today's blather about KKK support shows that both Cruz and Rubio are awful human beings.

It’s not a repudiation of conservatism; it’s a repudiation of the GOPe.

They’re the ones who repudiated conservatism.

Otherwise, why did the GOPe-controlled House give The Won everything he wanted in the most recent budget?

I don’t recall Trump ever claiming to be a conservative. On the other, there’s a flim-flam man claiming to be “the only Constitutional Conservative” in the race. If he were that knowledgable, he would know Canadians are ineligible.

It is a repudiation of the conservatism of McCain, ¡Yeb!, Graham, Flake, Rubio, and all the rest of the flunkies of The Cheap Labor Express.

None of the other candidates spoke of deporting illegal aliens and left that ground open for Trump.

More than likely, it is a repudiation of both of the ruling parties. Trump just happens to be the recipient of the good will. The Republicans have power in both houses, but they bend to the will of Obama when it comes to the budget. Nineteen trillion and counting. I am hoping Paul Ryan has the guts to take a stand on the next budget, but we will see.

The problem is, conservatism hasn’t been marketed effectively.

The phony globalist career “Conservatives” (NR, Red State, etc.) have given “Conservative” a bad name. To them being “Conservative” means not caring if Boeing makes their planes in China or American workers are forced to work two part time jobs for half the money they used to make, as long as the transnational corporations’ bottom line is fat. Conservatism without nationalism is a fraud.

Correction, it’s a repudiation of conservatism as defined by what the illusionists have been pouring into the snake oil bottles for years and years.

No, Trump’s platform is Conservative. Folks just did their best to deny it.

Almost but, how many times do you have to be sold out to phonies posing as Conservatives before you get totally mad and find a different way? We the People.

No it isn’t. It is a repudiation of neocons. Well deserved and long overdue.

How can you elect a conservative, I mean a REAL conservative in a country that has had a progressive education system for how long now?

It took them a 100 years to get this country on the edge, how is it going to turn on a dime....it's not.

The road back is going to be just as long as the road to get here was.

Barring any major upheavals or disasters.

Trump or Cruz will be able to take the first steps, Trump is the apparent winner at this time.

It is what it is.

Maybe not repudiation of conservatism per se, but the reality of pragmatism. If the ultimate pinnacle of true Conservatism can’t win, then perhaps an alternative is a more realistic solution to saving the country from the likes of Hillary and Sanders. IMOHO

It is no such thing. It is a repudiation of the tactics of conservatives.

I’m sick of this argument. What republican EVER was a pure conservative?

“It is also a repudiation of conservatism.”

I can’t imagine why anyone would want to repudiate “conservatism”.

After all, so many of us still remember how the heroic conservatives in Congress stood up to Obama and stopped his agenda dead in its tracks by passing a budget that eviscerated his illegal immigration policies, eliminated the energy-destroying EPA, eliminated the Marxist propaganda Education Department, eliminated the job-destroying Labor Department, eliminated the racist Civil Rights Commission, defunded the FCC until they give back control of the Internet to private industry, defunded Obamacare, defunded the Planned Parenthood slaughter, defunded enforcement of 99% of Obama”s regulations and Executive Orders. It was a great day for America when that happened, when conservatives stopped Obama’s agenda cold.

Given all of these amazing accomplishments by conservatives, it’s no wonder that the only thing that Freepers and rank-and-file Republicans everywhere care about is getting some more of them elected so that they can continue applying their conservative principles to such good effect.

It is also a repudiation of conservatism.

As you define it...Conservatives don't support unfair trade agreements such as TPP and NAFTA and the New World Order...Conservatives do not support amnesty...Conservatives do not support H1B visas for foreigners when we have so many Americans out of work...
