Kristol is a RINO, not a conservative.

I disagree. He is a Republican. Only to the MSM does R = conservative. The Republican party, in an effort to gain votes, opened up their sandbox to let conservatives play there. Now conservatives have decided there is too much cat poop in the sandbox. Enter Trump. He is NOT a conservative, but he's a damned sight better than Republicans.

Kristol's a Republican, but he's left leaning in tons of ways like the Bush family. Thus the RINO rating from me. Pence is a Republican, but he's mostly a Reagan conservative. Our party is divided into multiple camps, but these are the two main ones.

Trump is not a Reagan conservative in the classic sense, he's neither ideological, nor is he an intellectual style explainer of conservatism. Trump is difficult to categorize, but he leans towards Reagan policy wise in every single way but trade, and he's really not that far from him in that regard. He's the most conservative candidate we've had since Reagan.

The Bush family drove the party left, drove them to become the party of accommodating the evil of the left. They were the original RINO's, unfortunately they are the norm for the party leaders at this time.
