"His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

A lie doesn't become the truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good just because it is accepted by a majority.

People lose sight of the way things are and what is what and oversimplify their opinions and in their argument they get glued on getting the win, throw factual information out and hurt their credibility. Truth is righties are gonna call lefties socialists whether they are or not because that is how they appear.

They are basically endorsing the reality, a mixed economy, which most if not all of the world has, is the opportune system
Problem with many conservatives, especially the Trumpkins, is that they actually think we live in a pure capitalist system, which we haven't since the 19th Century if not before then, we have thrived in a mixed economy. It is not a dichotomy of one versus the other
Secondly, conservatives believe competition produces better results, the "invisible hand" will always lead to better ends, which might be true if open markets actually existed, but they don't, the American economy is largely controlled by oligarchs, large business entities that are capable of manipulating markets. Given those interests prime purpose for existing it to make a profit, someone has to exist to manage the abuses that arise and account for those who fall thru the cracks

Competition does produce better results. If it didn’t socialism and Cuban/U.S.S.R. style central government planning would secede but it doesn’t. People in amerca also understand we have a mixed economy. If we had a pure capitalist economy our government wouldn’t have bailed out the big banks (as just one example). Many also understand the government has contributed to making the economy less free.
Can obviously go way deeper into this
