As the Trump administration keeps some promises but betrays others, your tactics are confusing fewer and fewer conservatives. I suggest you follow my example and praise Trump when he commits an act of conservatism and oppose him when he reverts to the leftist tendencies of his daughter and son-in-law


This is what I would appreciate more of on FR. That people can praise DT actions when he acts conservatively without being labeled a Trump-bot, but also be able to criticize actions we disagree with when they are not conservative without being labeled a Never Trumper. We need to be thoughtful and evaluate actions, not words, and look at all the actions taken together. I do not appreciate the atmosphere lately that any criticism of Donald Trump immediately means you are a disloyal traitor. We should not be engaging in a cult of personality like the Democrats did for Obama or Hillary.

I've seen plenty of criticism of President Trump here without people calling them NeverTrumpers. Realistically, President Trump isn't going to do everything we like. We can only hope a large majority of what he does is wins for conservatism. So far, so good. Keep in mind though, he has a huge roadblock of the media, the whole government establishment, and their cronies trying to keep him from getting the American people's will done.

What you are seeing playing out on this thread is a bad case of Soreloserman. A certain poster on here just can't get over the fact that his candidate lost and uses any negativity, whether true or not, to use against Trump.

My beef with some posters here is those that take our media's words as gospel. They have the "well they said it or printed it so it must be true" mentality. It doesn't matter that the media has lied over and over again to the American people, they will continue to use the same lying, deceiving, propagandizing, media to make their points. It's crazy how some still do that here.
