Scheming to pack the Supreme Court.

Voting to override the electoral college.

Voting to leave Trump off the ballot.

Fighting to have illegals counted in congressional representation.

Bitching about republican gerrymandering, while doing some gerrymandering of their own.

These folks are intent on dominating conservative voices however necessary.

Half of the voters are in favor of these tactics.

What will we do about it?

you forgot to mention silencing free speech on twitter facebook and other media outlets

they have also taken over fox news as well since murdock kids are card carrying members of the cult of soros. that network is only a shadow of its former self and they are about to complete transforming it into CNN as soon as they can get rid of tucker and hannity

everything you said is stupid and wrong but this is just blatant lying. no one is voting to leave trump off any ballot. every presidential candidate has voluntarily shown their taxes since the 70s. it wasn't a law, it was simply decorum, a show of good faith because there's a lot of mutual trust involved here, you're asking us to trust you. we are not your subordinates.

trump decided he's above that sort of thing. and ok. sure. he has that right, the states cant force him to be open and honest.

they can make the rules for their elections however.

he pushed, they pushed back, and he has no one to blame but himself.

I had heard 2 years ago that his tax returns were under an audit. If this is true, I can understand why he wouldn't release them. I would treat it the same as not able to discuss details about an ongoing investigation.

This is the Paris Accord (that I'm sure you probably supported) in a nutshell.

"You don't have to abide by, it's not a law, but if you don't we'll be upset so do it anyway"

They literally made a rule based on a courtesy that excludes him from the ballot of an entire state. Washington had 1.2 million people (38%) vote for Trump. This is nothing more than overt voter disenfranchisement

If I may step in for MrCarton:

We will lose in the long run, as conservatism has in this country (and others) for the past several hundred years. Conservatives, generally, are reasonable people who want to maintain a semblance of stability and order, whereas leftists (at least the ones who influence the leftist narrative) inevitably try to prove who is more pure in their leftism, which only leads to more and more extreme versions of leftist thought.

You cannot reason with these people in the generally accepted American, republican manner. They will use entryism, infiltration of important institutions, and moral shaming to ensure their victory. Conservatism, in the American sense, has no proper defense mechanisms against this kind of action.

I like the President, inasmuch I can like a President, but he is not going to stop what I am talking about. He can delay it, sort of, but that's about it.

I piss everyone off anyway.

There is a small but growing contingent of PBers that are getting it, before long there will be a noticeable swing in sentiment here.

Yep.

Conservatism doesn't really stand for anything, either. Conservatives are generally the liberals of 20 years ago. It's actually pathetic how fast conservatism succumbs to the left. Today, conservatives are primarily concerned with proving they aren't racist, and making sure gays and other pet identities of the left know they are safe in the arms of daddy conservatism.

30 years ago, conservatives were riled up about abhorrent social behaviors destroying their communities, today, they are riled up at the idea that someone thinks they don't want dildo wearing gay pride marchers and trannies reading books to their kids.

Conservatism 2019: you'd better like gay people or we wil bomb you for Israel!
