There is nothing knee-jerk about my opposition to the President’s abandonment of conservative principles. No one but my children has my automatic, unconditional love and support. My approbation must be earned, and this President has done very little in his second term to earn it. What he’s trying to do now is dangerous and nonsensical, and it is my duty as a citizen to call him on it.
It’s immature to say, “he’s my guy and therefore can do no wrong.” That’s childish hero worship, and conservatives, who are supposed to THINK instead of FEEL, should not engage in it.
