The problem is, conservatism hasn’t been marketed effectively.

Why do Trumpers assume that because you have reservations about Trump you support the GOPe or open borders?Maybe it’s his past and current statements that worry us

Open borders you mean

Fox News

Hannity

Mark Levin

Rush Limbaugh

the rest of the frauds who lied to the GOP voter who thought there people backed the middle class not throwing them under the Bus.

Also conservatism isn’t about one way trade deals and unfettered illegal immigration.

The problem is, conservatism hasn’t been marketed effectively.

That same argument is used to tout Marxism.

No, the real problem is the term "conservatism" has been hijacked by the neo-cons in the party to be whatever the hell they say it means. Today that term means supporting trade deals that transfer wealth, jobs, investment and technology to other nations.

It means invading other nations and endless trillion dollar occupations. It means letting Wall Street and the Banks run wild to do whatever they want even if it means multi-trillion dollar bail outs. It means letting insurance companies write our health care legislation.

Bottom line: conservatism is following the Constitution and protecting the rights and interests of the American People; not being a lobbyist for big business or the highest bidder.
