A “conservative” is defined as “a person who is averse to change and holds to traditional values and attitudes, typically in relation to politics.”
Conservatism is dead. “Traditional values” are no longer honored. There is little to conserve any more. It’s now between nationalists and globalists.
A nationalist is somebody who values the safety and well-being of people of his own nation over outsiders. A globalist is somebody who thinks it’s immoral to favor your own people over the “poor and oppressed” of the world.
I am a nationalist. I care about my own family and future descendants the most. I care about the people who share an affinity for classic Western culture and classic Western values; who believe in working for a living and making their own way. Regarding people who might wish to enslave me and my posterity for their benefit, I swear my hostility to them.
Reagan and Goldwater were also nationalists. What passes as “Conservatism” today is actually a corruption introduced by 30 years of Bush family domination of the GOP. Trump is actually a turn back towards Goldwater-Reagan style conservatism and away from Bush-ism.
