Read WF Buckley. Did he not define Conservatism for the modern era? Or, was a principal thereof?
He espoused all of those. As has the GOP.
Where the GOP IS Conservative, is in rhetoric on Social issues...and it's in rhetoric only.
Free flow of trade, labor, unencumbered operational tactics by business, freedom to fund any candidate for any purpose (crony) and kill any country that doesn't do what we wants according to the whim of the day.
That IS modern Conservatism. Orthodox.
