"We Need to Stop Calling Ourselves Conservatives"

We don't need to run from our principles and have rebranding campaigns every 10 years like liberal progressives.

The thing conservatives failed in is ceding cultural control over education and the media.

Then why not have a strip show at the library? That's just "entertainment", which is what you've claimed is all the drag shows are about.

The republic has failed so it doesn’t really matter what we do!

"Others" like RogerTheShredder?

Because it was Roger who first brought Trump into the discussion.

If we want to turn the tide against radical left culture, we should be less concerned with what we call ourselves and more concerned with who we elect. On the one hand Trump has some culpability with how quickly the culture has "evolved" over the last decade. And on the other you have a very popular governor who has stood up to the cultural Marxists at every turn and has mostly been successful at it. Who is better equipped for this fight? Pretty obvious

Don't forget about all of the handout seeking millennials that vote lefty.



As a millennial to define capitalism and socialism, be prepared to laugh your arse off.

Unfortunately, half of Millennials surveyed could not identify which definition referred to capitalism or socialism or they assigned the socialist definition to capitalism and the capitalist definition to socialism. For Democrats, A is capitalism and B is socialism.

The principled conservative position, ladies and gentlemen. Exhibit A of why conservatives are losers.

The fact that you had that photo of yourself from junior year says a lot.

If you want a photo of me in the wild I’ll post the one of me and your mother.

Interesting, already using Progressive tactics.

The low IQ populists can't understand why they hate the other side, but they're two sides of the same coin.

Your idol was a phony. Do better.

There's nothing conservative about pretending that we can't use moral norms to draw lines.

Opt out.

We're headed for failure. All you're doing is prolonging the pain. Start separating yourselves now.

Not really. Lemon v Kurtzman would apply in that scenario.

No, the "principled CONSTITUTIONALIST" position, sir.

The Constitution trumps political/partisan ideology.

If you feel otherwise, you are a big part of the problem with this country today.
