Do conservatives believe in anything?

[BidenPresident]

American conservatism exists, if I could put it in my own words, to clean up the messes created by the country’s dominant class of liberal elites. The Reagan Revolution wasn’t a proper “revolution” at all but a series of conservative repairs, chief among them reforming a crippling tax code and revivifying the American economy. The great triumph of neoconservatism in the 1970s and ’80s was not the formulation of some original philosophy but the demonstration that liberal policies had ruined our cities.

So, no.

[BidenPresident]

The post-World War II conservative coalition’s stress on the free market and individual liberty made sense during the Cold War, when Soviet totalitarianism threatened the West and tempted its intellectuals to embrace Marxian centralization, but what’s needed now is cultural and economic solidarity. This critique, popular among some self-described “national conservatives,” overestimates the good and underestimates the harm government planning can bring about. Still, it isn’t an unreasonable argument. R.R. Reno’s “Return of the Strong Gods” (2019) is an eloquent expression of it.

So, no.

we believe in a plain text reading of the constitution and bill of rights, the primacy of the individual, and a healthy suspicion of the corrupting influence of power and centralization.

I would add we are also opposed to critical theory, and post modernist dumbassery.

all of that shit is for retards.

What is a "plain text reading of the constitution?"

Repubs want the followers to leave no wealthy person unblown. The reds are happy to provide. They see foes in every direction but the real one. Our wealth is going straight up to the foreign bank accounts of the super-wealthy. The Repubs on this board just love that and fight for it. Money =power. Yes, Repubs give those one-percenters all you have. They deserve it. You are correct, you should have nothing. no money, no power, no regulations. nothing.

yes. the foreign banks accounts of the super wealthy, that's due to globalism which you seem to unconditionally support like a typical neocon moron.

Then why have a Supreme Court if the meaning of the Const. is obvious and self evident?
