Maybe conservatism needs to make a comeback for 2028
Platform:
Reduce debt and spending
Smaller government
Close borders and deport illegals
Property rights
Family values
Free market capitalism
National defense

Could've had this in 2024 but since DeSantis is an Israel cuck that would get us in another war in the middle east, we got trump instead.
Oh, and something about his shoes. We can't have a good conservative because he doesn't wear the right type of shoes that the gheys wanted him to wear.

Great ideas which congressional republicans could never get behind.

Yeah, good thing we chose the guy who actually got us into another war and has done a shite job with the economy, as opposed to the guy who has a proven record of fiscal competence and doesn’t show any evidence of being willing to get us into a long-term war.
Great job, primary voters!

We won’t. We will get another wave of useless neocon Bushies.

DeSantis dropped out before any primary election was held.

Desantis is pro Israel.
Maybe you retards should make up your mind. You hate Trump because he's pro Israel, but think we should have voted for another pro Israel Republican.

Out of everything you listed only two really conservative talking points historically

Reminds me of the chapters I read this morning in the book on the evolution of politics. He's talking about man's move from wild hunter/gatherer to cooperative settlement with some form of govt. Let's call them 'tribes.' Before 1000 A.D. there were over 250 Tribes in Europe. By 1200 they had become 30 nations. What made them nations?
1. One dominant ethnicity.
2. One language.
3. Rulers respected private property of citizens.
Some nations moved away from these 3 and fell to others who took over.

This might be more accurate: Great job, Republican voters who responded to primary polls and Republican caucus goers in Iowa.

OP throws out seven things conservatives could rally around in 2028, and in the very first fricking reply you’ve got us right back in the 2024 primary arguing about DeSantis’s shoes.
Meanwhile the Left is rallying behind card carrying members of the DSA, just soo as long as it isn’t a Republican in office. JFC

Trump has been a disaster for Republicans who care about the long term and traditional conservatism…

There is NO viable political party willing to deal with the debt.
They don't even talk about it. They act as if it will go away if they ignore it.

Agreed
And we do have a bit of a circular logic problem. Much our GDP is fueled by deficit spending. If you drastically cut the deficit, which we need to do, then you also cut your GDP. Which is why trying to grow your way out of this is such a difficult proposition.

Desantis is pro Israel to the extent necessary to prevent you retards from reeing about Qatar and calling him an antisemite.
He’s been pretty harsh recently about their influence over Iran.

It has the appearance of that plane crash in Florida.
It started spiraling down and got into an unrecoverable situation until it hit the ground and exploded into a million pieces.
Last transmission: "holy frick, we're out of time"

That’s all I’ve been asking for and I had someone call me a leftist as I voiced my disappointment with how things have gone this year with Trump.
People can be reflexive clowns when their dogma is challenged.
I’ll take conservatism all day long. The problem is that we’ve strayed away from it for decades now and it has allowed the party to shift ever more leftward. I don’t know if we can ever recover the ground we’ve lost but we can’t keep doing what has been done. The straying from what you listed gave populism chance to take hold due to frustration.
Posters here blame conservatives but they’re mistaken. Conservatives don’t stray. We’re steadfast in our beliefs. Becoming a big tent party is great from a numbers perspective.. it isn’t so great when your policies and values change. Trump went with a super big tent, and that makes sense numerically. But millions of voters that he attracted were not conservatives and that provided cover for him as long as things were going well. When things didn’t those voters dropped him and went back to the other side. That’s why the blowout happened.
