As a side note, one only has to look at all the threads being posted here to see who is being given the most scrutiny and being tossed to the wolves ..........It ain’t Hillary......
You are right about there being a lot of criticism of conservative “leadership” on FR.
However, in light of the GOP’s complete betrayal of conservative principles, refusal to fight insane domestic and foreign policies, instead actually capitulate and collaborate to further Obola’s USA trainwreck, I think conservatives are completely justified holding RINOs feet to the fire.
Jeb, Christie, Rubio, Paul, Rand are compromised and would likely take the country in the direction that Obola and the left want.
Moderate Republicans have a very poor record of opposing this president, and as a result, I don’t trust them.
Ammnesty for Illegals instead tough border enforcment, along with immediate attention to deficit spending / monetary policies, are among my most important litmus tests.
Few candidates can be relied on to tow the line.
