The fact that you think any of that stuff really means anything coming from politicians makes you the naive one.
So, Trump isn’t a ‘conservative’?
Well, my ‘conservative’ ‘tea party’ governor campaigned for re-election on not raising the gas tax. It didn’t take her a week after winning to be asking the legislature to send her a bill raising the gas tax.
My ‘conservative’ congressional representative is really great at talking like a ‘conservative’, yet somehow, he finds a way to vote for every single globalist, big government, GOPe backed bill that he can find. But don’t worry, because he has a lot of flowery excuses for why.
My ‘conservative’ ‘tea party’ senator met with Democrats and tech CEO billionares on some island off the Georgia coast to conspire with them to stop the frontrunner for the GOP nomination from winning. But that’s okay, right? Because he’s ‘conservative’ and has ‘values like I do’.
So, Trump isn’t a ‘conservative’, eh? So what? Who cares? If the ones who ARE ‘conservative’ are any indication of what happens when we elect ‘conservative’ politicians, I’ll take the guy who isn’t ‘conservative’.
And by the way, when it comes to buying politicians: in modern history, the only choice we’ve ever had in politics is to vote for the one who is selling influence to the donors. In other words, the hooker.
For the first time ever, we have a choice between the hooker and the john. When those are the only choices available, I’ll take the John every time. He’s a guy trying to get his building built in a fascist police state run by hookers.
Conservatism isn’t owned by any one person.
The politicians you are complaining about in your state are clearly not conservatives. I have the same problem with these kinds of RINO liars in my state.
Does that mean that there is no value to conservatism? Of course not.
You make the mistake of believing that because politicians are generally dishonest, that conservative policy is useless. It is not.
Man is dishonest. So, it is quite irrelevant whether their background is as a businessman, or an attorney, or a ditch digger. People are dishonest, such is the nature of man.
So, when it comes to someone wishing to hold elected office, particularly the POTUS, we must throw out the liars, and reward the honest.
