Shortly after my 18th birthday and just in time to vote for my hero, Ronald Reagan.

I just can’t believe my party is now putting up idiots like Roy Moore for election. Politics has become a rancid cesspool, man. I see no end to this.

I registered as an Independent when I was 18 because I saw both parties were shite.

Ronaldo was a good president. He also funded murder squads in central and South America

Your hero knowingly financed murder because in between killing innocent people, they killed communists

I changed my affiliation to independent with Trump. I'm done with the GOP.

To add they aren't even pretending to care about common people any more. They are just corporate shills, doing whatever the 1% and big business wants.

Not true.

That said, Roy Moore was indeed a terrible candidate and embodied the characature of conservative as painted by Progs. Luther would have been a Paul Ryan type and would have more deeply engrained the GOPe. Mo Brooks would have been the best answer.

This is by far one of the dumbest talking points you cucks have conceived.

A more apt comparison would be JFK to the modern democrat party. He would be considered far-right by people like you and wouldn't make it past the dim primary.

You are reading too much into my comments. I haven’t voted for a Democrat in any election where I have had a legit GOP option, ever. I was already done with the Dems. But I feel like my own party has now jumped the shark. Tribalism rules, and I am not a tribalist. So I’ll put the energy I used to put into politics into something else. Maybe learning Italian or toning my glutes.

Never too late to make a change. These things happen in cycles. For the moment... Conservative America has embraced the role of villain.

I registered as a Democrat in 2008 when I was on the liberal Obama train. Voted for my first Republican, Our President, in 2016. Became an Independent in 2017. I’d join the Constitution Party if they were a viable third party.

Can you give an example of your idea of a non-villainous conservative?

Ben Shapiro perhaps?

From your perspective yes.

Most of us are still wary of socialism and it's influence on the American left.

Most people also think both social conservatism and y'alls social justice politics are bat shite crazy
