This week was a soft civil war between LGBTQ supporting conservatives and their supporters against some social conservatives.This week also exposed how conservatives easily bend to the left on the most important issues and how this movement is being infiltrated by liberals and libertarians.I appreciate having lot of voters from different regions but I don’t appreciate us forgetting our base which is mostly whites and christians.
We don’t need to shift our movement to the left to attract more voters;more voters would come if we actually accomplish the original goals and agenda of MAGA.
If this is a conservative website, im in the wrong place...
Just like this new fancy trend going on.
Oddly enough, many of the “libertarians” I know are actually establishment shills. They claim they want less government and more freedom, yet didn’t support Trump. They hate populism. They refuse to believe that there could even be an iota of fraud. They exist just to play the game and not actually produce results.
Yeah, Democrats would love to have MAGA shrunk to uneducated white males. It never was. Glowie supports Democrats.
Nobody said that but anyway,I prefer quality over quantity.We can’t be a true or powerful movement if the newcomers to the movement try to subvert it.
white religious and (very narrowminded towards others) conservatives...... or do you mean Moral Majority?
That is, and always has been, a fragment of the right side of the American ideological equation- AND conservatives as a whole.
Think of it this way:
What is the threat you feel from a huge swath that have otherwise aligned with you consisting of MOSTLY fiscally conservative and MODERATELY socially liberal Americans of any shade and/or religious view, who put country and citizens, Constitutional rights, personal responsibility, an egalitarian society, and real consequences for your choices legal system as their priority in politics and personal values?
That they are not of the same shade and religious views as your group?
That is a very large percentage of Americans who either are not white, or not into your flavor of religion. Like easily 40% of the Country.
Or is it that somehow having to not be openly demeaning or marginalizing towards the scant few?
Yes, 5% is a generous number for Americans who do not practice straight sexual attraction but quietly like adults of the same sex?.
Do you realize how you sound? What you are saying your views of others are?
And how antithetical to founding American values you really are?
And do not say you are tolerant in any way- suffering others to exist somewhere else in your Country not your shade and theology, but just so long as "they" have no equal ability to live their private life on an equal footing, and FOR SURE are not interested in locking arms with you in agreement against true authoritarian oppressive forces and fighting for the America as it was founded.....
...that is PURITANS, not AMERICAN VALUES.
And there are.good reasons they were not much of the future generations outside their small geophraphic bubble of fanatical judgemental cruelly rejecting of any difference or humanity cult.
It's when Conservatives turn Libertarian that the a Left shows their true Communist Colors.
I've said it too, what are we conserving if we sacrifice our values to the left? It just makes us nothing more than liberals, but 5 years behind, liberals going the speed limit.
