I’m saying when US conservatives get elected to anything more important than town dog catcher then they get bragging rights to sneer at the ideological purity or otherwise of conservatives elsewhere in the world, who actually manage to get elected into government.
The US is the country that re-elected Barack Obama, you’ll forgive conservatives in the rest of the planet, who actually have right-of-centre governments, if we chuckle a bit at how big-talking American conservatives lecture us on electoral politics.
So you are indeed cheering for statists to get elected. Or even elected dishonestly, since you mentioned Obama getting re-elected twice while the media defend him in spite of strong evidence of election fraud.
There are no conservatives to forgive in “the rest of the planet”. How can one be a conservative who embraces state control of any part of a country’s economy?
You sure you’re on the right forum?
