Conservatives need to regroup

[Mac1958]

Conservatives can't regroup as long as Trump is in the White House.

The Right has completely sold its soul for this guy.

Maybe later.

You can't really use free-markets and capitalism together in the same paragraph or series of paragraphs, Joe, because we don't have that. What we have is central economic planning by a central bank. We have a controlled economy. A belief in deficit financing. Inflationism. All of this has rendered us 22 trillion dollars in debt and devalued our dollar down to about 4 cents. It's Keynesian. It's a socialist monetary policy. It's designed to fail. Nothing about that is free-market. It's so far removed from free-markets that it's laughable to call it that.

The problem you guys have is that people are seeing EXACTLY how Free Markets work... Because they are seeing what a progressively shitty deal Capitalism is...

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

the fact is we are a minority. While Trump is doing more for conservatives than I expected, more people voted against him and his policies and we just got our butts kicked in the house races. Part of that could be trump but I think the bigger problem is we are fighting the culture.

We need to regroup.

We need to stop conceding elections by letting democrats run unopposed or essentially unopposed.

We need to be out there teaching people why conservatism and the Constitution work. We need to teach people how the free market is supposed to work. We are fighting decades of indoctrination against these things.

We need to not just win arguments, we need to persuade people our ideas are better and bring them to our side.

We can’t just right off more than half the country

If you want to try to salvage conservatism start by being consistent.

For example, if you want to advocate for ‘less government’ then do so consistently: don’t just advocate for less government regulation of businesses, advocate also for less government interference in citizens’ private lives; less government means not trying to ‘ban’ abortion, or prohibiting gay Americans from marrying, or denying transgender Americans their right to self-expression.

Indeed, by simply rejecting the entire hateful social right/religious fundamentalist agenda, conservatives would realize a significant increase in new adherents.

He knows that....He just worships at the altar of The State, and adjusts his "reality" to suit.

You got issues.

Conservatives need to stop lying.

Conservatives need to stop with the fear-mongering and demagoguery.

Conservatives need to stop being frightened of change, diversity, and inclusion.

Conservatives need to stop being misogynists, bigots, and racists.

Conservatives need to stop being authoritarian ideologues blindly adhering to their failed, wrong-headed political doctrine and dogma.

Conservatives must stop trying to compel conformity, stop opposing the rights and protected liberties of the American people, and end their unwarranted hostility toward immigrants, gay Americans, transgender Americans, and the privacy rights of women.

Absent these changes conservatives will continue to be an opposed and rejected minority, and appropriately so.

 

[whitehall]

What does "regroup" mean?

 

[Silhouette]

We have allowed the left to grab control of the media, Hollywood, the schools, the universities and most of the churches. It's not enough to grab control of the government, we need to fight them everywhere.

And yet the tranny issue in women’s showers was like a goldmine there for the tapping.

You want to regroup around a middle-galvanizing issue? Start there. Illegal aliens was a foil of stink bait that the GOP catfish swam up to & swallowed without thinking carefully about it being a COMPLEX issue that could swing either way from various middle voters. That ain’t the case with raw dick being flung in their wives & daughters’ faces in the showers as a matter of law re: democrat core platform.

 

[JWBooth]

Trump said it was a “complete victory”?

Was he lying?

He is from NYC and he has taken up politics, of course he is lying.

It's not a Conservative Republican Party right now. It's the Party of Trump. What are you going to do the day he is no longer in office? Trump is NOT a conservative and never has been. And he damned sure isn't a Fiscal Conservative. The Fiscal Conservatives used to be the power behind the Republican party but they are currently wandering in the wilderness for at least the next 40 days and nights with no direction and no party. When Trump is no longer a factor, get ready for a real bloodbath while the Party of Trump is trying to find another Deity to lead them. I look forward to that day. Maybe the old 80s and back Republican Party will be back. But as long as the Party of Trump is in power, there is no Republican Party per se.

Conservatism and the Constitution are antithetical to each other.

There is nothing in the Constitution that gives corporations or the church any authority.

It is Liberals that represent what the Constitution stands for. That is why the people are waking up to that fact. Liberalism comes naturally. Conservatism has to be taught. That’s why it requires a constant bullshit rant in order to work.

There is no teaching someone who is not and does not want to be an American. Sure you can say that in decades we will run this country to shithole status, but such a person does not care.

The only way forward is to build that wall. Conservatives unlike leftists are procreating. Instead of procreating the leftists are importing the 3rd world here, which votes to take the resources of Americans every time.

The only other option is to pick up your rifles. The real reason why leftists are so obsessed about gun control. All the leftist democratic systems are completely dependent on Americans allowing them.

People didn't really vote against his policies; they voted against him, his bizarre personality, and his entourage of billionaires and others of questionable intent (Zinke, Pruitt, etc.), Republicans think they need Trump, but they really don't. He is a bandaid fix that is soon going to become an anchor.

I agree we don’t need him. But he is president and we thus we need to work with him to accomplish good things for this nation

You need to face reality and accept trump is what republicans and conservatives are about. The republican base selected him in the primaries with many other alternatives. He is hugely popular still with conservatives and republicans. Trump is republican values. Trump is the face of the republican party and what they stand for. Trump is the republican leader, and the most loved one since reagan. He is the example republicans aspire to be, and what they are.

 

[JoeB131]

You can't really use free-markets and capitalism together in the same paragraph or series of paragraphs, Joe, because we don't have that. What we have is central economic planning by a central bank.

And we are back into the Lizard People Crazy Town here...

this is why I don't talk to nuts.

Trump tried to make the Tranny issue a big deal... and he still lost the house and a bunch of governorships....

Nobody cares about this issue but the HOmophobic nuts, and they are always going to vote GOP.

Well, I don't know about lizard people, Joe. Sounds scwewy to me.

We do have central economic planning by a central bank, though. And a belief in deficit financing. And inflationism. There's nothing free-market about that at all.

And what has it got us? Hm? What. We're toward the back end of the biggest bubble in the history of the world. We have a currency crisis. That bubble is so inflated, it's leaking all over the place, they have no idea where it's all going, they can't keep patching it, it's too inflated now. We're 22 trillon dollars in debt and our dollar is worth precisely 4 cents.

We're doomed. lol. Keynesianism is just monetary socialism by another name.

 

[Natural Citizen]

Actually, the Keynesian socialists own the monetary policy. They've pretty much won that gig. The dollar can't be devalued much more. Like I said, it's worth precisely 4 cents now. And we're up to our ears in growing debt.

Yep. Nobody (and I mean NOBODY) cares if their wives & daughters are legally forced to share showers & locker rooms with deranged males waving raw dick in front of them. Not one person of the middle bloc cares about that.

Buying that profoundly obtuse lie is what cost the GOP the House. Trumps handlers soft served the tranny issue in favor of going hard on the gray- area (with middle voters, not righty zealots, remember) illegal alien thing.

“Conservatives” need to stop acting like scared Tea Party bitches.
That ship sailed long ago, nobody respects a nutless pussy. It’s time to play smash mouth, partisan politics...PERIOD!
There’s tens of millions of good Americans waiting to mobilize, waiting for the right message and wanting to be lead.
The love wetbacks, free shit Party won’t reach them and they don’t trust the nutless GOP....Trumps message resonates well with these people but they know the GOP will impede Trumps progress. The establishment bitches can’t get out of their own way.

 

[JWBooth]

First things first. Conservatives, let's learn what conservatism is. Because you can't go around teaching conservatism if you don't know what it is. At least not unsupervised.

Nailed it.
