    Eisenhower and even Nixon would be called RINOs. The GOP has come a long way. All downhill.

    You claim Nixon was conservative? He was a Keynesian who instituted wage and price controls. When has that been conservatism?

    And we know how much Democrats love Nixon
    "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man."
    — Joe Biden on Obama.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    Can you outline which of Trumps implemented policies you oppose?

    Cessation of DACA?
    Enforcement of immigration laws?
    Judicial appointments?
    Tax cuts?
    Did you want us to stay in Paris Accords?
    Drilling in ANWR?
    Elimination of individual mandate?
    Eliminating regulations?
    Slowing pace of NEW regulations?

    What exactly offends your “classical liberal”, “Reagan conservative” principles?

    Why are you pro-illegal immigration, you shitbag?
    Free speech is cool as long as it jibes with our program.
