Where is the Conservative Outrage?

Europe, excluding the former Soviet Bloc. That better?
You have the mental illness of extreme TDS. You would rather have a freak like Honest Joe, despite how much of a POS he is.
NOPE, I get my news from many sources.
But you said you don't watch TV to get your news. I find it strange how you know everything about Tucker, but nothing about the scandals from your side's media. It's like how you know everything QAnon says, but you don't know the lies your own side has been proven to have said.
How would you know what conservatives believe?
You repeatedly claim I've said hateful things about Tucker Carlson... I don't watch the man, I don't mention him in this forum...
You do!
I know what Conservatives believe because, pre-Trump I was a bona-fide Conservative... I'm the FIRST to admit that, under the influence of Trump, I'm re-considering that label ... I may have to go straight "Libertarian"... but I'm not ready to give up on Republican yet... I'm certain there *will be a Republican Party once Trump kicks it and there is an actual grave for people to piss on...

LOL, you call him a liar. But you don't watch him.
YEP, you get your "news" from the loony left media.
You aren't a libertarian either, as you believe that everyone must do as they are told. No liberty there.

@bi4smooth I would like to ask if you voted for Hillary, because if you did, I'd say you have very poor judgement... And everything you say henceforth is lame. You know she did that Haiti thing right? With 1 billion raised, and kept 90%... You know about that right?

I think we can keep the "conservative" label, but with a lower-case "c" so as not to be muddled in with Trump and his kind. I have many friends in the States who believe in free enterprise, personal responsibility, and government staying within its means. These were pillars of the Republican party until the little Orange Toddler came along.
but I'm not ready to give up on Republican yet... I'm certain there *will be a Republican Party once Trump kicks it
It will take time for things to stabilise. Many people have dropped the Republican label and would be ready to come back post-Trump. As the party shrinks, though, it tends to look rather bad as those remaining are heavily skewed towards the Trump/Q mentality (or lack thereof).
and there is an actual grave for people to piss on...

Be sure to wear sensible shoes, as you'll be waiting in a long queue. I might even see you there.

I don't know squat about Hillary Clinton - the 2016 election was, for me at least, very similar to the 2020 one: more about avoiding the known danger of letting (Hillary in 2016, Trump in 2020) get back into the White House!
I long for the days when I could cast a vote for President FOR a candidate instead of against one!
- John McCain would have been a President to be PROUD OF!
- Mitt Romney would have been a President with MORALS, HONOR AND DIGNITY
Hillary was the candidate to avoid at all costs in 2016, and how ironic that Trump became that same thing just 4 years later!

@eobox91103 The GOP party shrinking? Where you have McAllen TX, 90% hispanic, voting for Trump. Where you have Cubans in Florida voting GOP and Trump. Where you have almost half of Black People voting Trump? It's not shrinking bud. Because after everything that's happened, people will never go back to the Democrat side. There are only Democrats leaving their party. Republicans never go Democrat, except for the RINOs like John McCain and Mitt Romney and Liz Cheney. They were never real Republicans to begin with.

LOL - Ask the Secretaries of State in most every State - people are changing their party affiliation AWAY from our Party.
It does us no good to pretend this isn't happening

@bi4smooth Nonsense.

Both are absolute crap.

Oh, and the reason people are fleeing the Repub party is because of the loser swampies that won't do anything for the people.
People are fleeing the DNC-controlled areas and going to the RNC-controlled areas.
-
@raphjd There are splits in both parties. But Republicans who may be done with their party, are no way in hell going to the Democrat side, ever.
-
It would take something extraordinary for me to ever vote Dem again.
If anyone that our resident fake conservative supports runs for the Repubs, I'll waste my vote and go for some crackpot party.
I refuse to vote for swampies, RINOS, and enemies of the US.
Anyone who isn't America First can fuck off.
Note: Most western countries have the problem of caring about their country last. They don't care about their Vets, while throwing tons of welfare at illegals.
Scotland, for example, officially had 38k homeless (homeless charities highly dispute this figure) that they couldn't find homes for and wouldn't help. Yet, Scotland was able to find 2k homes for refugees they imported from refugee camps and automatically put them on every form of welfare.

@raphjd Oh Raph. I have a secret network of gays for Trump. Lol! Jk. But there were plenty of Lesbians and Gays at Trump's rally. Lots of rainbow flags.
-
I know a lot of LGBTs and other minorities that support Trump.

There were Jews (and gays) who supported the Nazis - that there are some outliers does not prove anything.
But this takes me back you my earlier point - it is clear to me now that you were never a Republican (likely not a Conservative either) -- PRE-Trump.
You're a Trumpite, not a Republican, and not a Conservative... and that's OK, just be who you are and don't claim to be otherwise.
If we accept your definition of a Republican (which I don't, but will for 10 seconds for the sake of argument), then your claim that "To be Republican is to support Trump" would be in stark contrast to me belief that "The Republican is greater than any 1 man, and that it is (ok, was) a party of principle and honor."
It also explains why you insist that I am no longer a Republican... and strictly by your twisted definition, you would be right - I do not "follow" Trump.
-
LOL, from the mouths of liberals.

@bi4smooth Oh Jeez. For starters, Hitler had thousands of Jews in his army and you can find many swastikas on the floors of Jewish Synagogues in Israel, etc. But I am not a Republican myself. Although I have never voted for a Democrat. You don't have to support Trump to be a Republican, that's not what I said. Just stop acting like you are one. It's like a man claiming he's a woman. There are only two chromosome styles, xx and xy. You were born that way. Now you're taking it into politics. It's so absolutely oblivious and outside what matters.

So - you do get it that there is a difference between biological sex and social gender? You could have fooled me.
There were plenty of people misled by the Nazis in the 1930s, and there are plenty of people being misled by Trumpism in the 2020's...
The only requirement to be a Republican is to register to vote as one. Your "altered universe" requirements of supporting Trump is misguided, short-sighted, and anti-American.
-
@bi4smooth You don't have to vote for Trump to be a Republican. 1930s you don't know anything about. You want to play a game. Let's call it: "How close can you get to the definition?"
