I mean, how would he know in a lot of these cases? More vetting and "extreme" background checks of their conservative virtues? The first cut is the deepest, apparently. There must simply be "no quarter" after your first fuck-up and exposure as a RINO. We must be vigilant and vocal to drive them out.
I guess I'm what you'd call an "extreme conservative." I want to end the Federal Reserve, I'm pro-life, I think only first-marriage grandparents should vote (long story) and I think at this point monarchies have a better track record than republics.
But what sucks is I thought we could trust appointments like Kavanaugh and ACB because they were "originalists" or whatever.
Wrong. Fight fire with fire.
The left has no issue with appointing activists. We are never, ever going to beat them unless we respond with our own activists. It is utterly naive to appoint centrists/moderates etc. in response to activists. If we keep doing this, we will go nobly to our graves.
how would he know
To answer your question...it's not hard to find extreme conservatives. But so far Trump has mostly left them on the sidelines. It turns out that was a mistake
Exactly, being staunchly anti-government needs to be a requirement on our side. Some basic form of government is a necessary evil. But increasing the scope of government is unnecessary. I only trust a politician who hates the job but loves his country more.
