Frankly, I am so tired of hearing the word “conservative.” As of late it has been so misused to cover up all sorts of betrayal, collusion, selfishness, underhandedness and a plethora of other ill begotten excuses for cowardice one could ever imagine.

Frankly if I have to align myself with Romney, or Cruz, or McCain or any of the other petty self-absorbed politicians to be a ‘conservative’, then I don’t want any part of that damned moniker.

I don’t have a problem telling the truth about her. She is a blonde Amanda Carpenter. I bet they are bff’s....

IMO, 99% of her yapping while on FNC is spent slinging crap/lies about Trump.

Donald Trump is incorrect on bathroom gender invasion policies

I'm quite sure Trumps position on that is that the states, not the Federal Government, should decide.

Please correct me if I'm wrong on that.


Trump supports it, which means that he might leave it that way. Obama is currently forcing it with executive orders. I agree that Trump will probably reverse it along with other unconstitutional orders. My main point was that no politician (even conservative) agrees with all the issues conservatives support and to point out that Trump supports overturning the Johnson Amendment which is more conservative than any politician has been so far.

You got me, though bathroom invasion not the best example.

Still there might be a federal issue with people objecting to a State imposing their bathroom will on the people.

Katie, there are plenty of conservatives in this country at the grassroots level. They’ve been there all this time.

Sure, people can argue about how conservative politically active people are and which ones are real conservatives and which ones aren't.

The bigger problem is that the country as a whole isn't as conservative as it once was. Contrary to what Ted Cruz and a lot of other people thought, being the most conservative -- however you want to define that -- doesn't win elections nowadays.

". . . as we thought. . . ." ????

Who are those individuals or groups who make up the elite "we"??

Are they the same ones who have encouraged and allowed the actions/inactions of Republican legislators who, under the banner of something they, themselves, called "conservatism" brought about such resentment from "We, the People" that a political unknown named Donald Trump attracted the largest Republican primary vote in history?

If Katie's "we" is made up of that population, that is one thing; what she needs to consider, however, is that there may exist a much larger "conservative" population out here who are more in line with Russell Kirk's idea of "the conservative mind," not with those individuals and groups with whom she associates herself today.

You are exactly right about MOST pundits. And add to that MOST “conservative” politicians. They talk a good game, but after election go back to serving their real masters, their ultra-rich sugar daddies. It looks like many republicans have become wise to that game and that explains why Trump won the nomination.

See #47

See what in #47, or do your words on their face simply have no value in repeating them?

"There aren't as many conservatives in the country as we thought there were,"

And none of them attended that rally.

>Carly Fiorina

Carly is not and has never been a conservative. She ran as a liberal in CA, then as a conservative in the presidential primaries. She’s a rat.

I’ve adopted the term Conservative Nationalist. They’re quickly turning the word conservative into a whore house.

That is his position.

In terms of the Bible the push towards globalism has its roots in Genesis 11. God responded with the destruction of Babel and the confusion of different languages. Some believe Nimrod was a foreshadowing of AntiChrist.

Katie Pavlich is young and extremely naive when it comes to judging character, or anything else for that matter.
