True & true.
Wrong. They want a rapid change back to the constitution. Agreeably, the democrat progressives have increasing changed the face of this nation into something horrible. How the moderate democrats allowed these people to take over their party is shameful, to say the least.
But with that said, there just aren't enough actual conservatives in DC to even start trying to get the GOP back on track. The elected republicans we have now, are probably 99% party loyalist. The party leaders are owned by lobbyist and people way more rich and powerful that any of our presidents combined. Those people don't care about the party. They care about the party following orders. And so if you're someone like Justin Amash, and only vote with the party 75% of the time, you get thrown under the bus. You get kicked off committees. He even got ran out of the Liberty Caucus. And he started the Liberty Caucus. Remember them? They're the ones who filibustered the FISA bill. They stopped Trump. (Obama care on steroids).
Maybe calling the GOP "progressives" was a little harsh. Honestly, they're no where near as bad as the democrats progressives. But none the less, the GOP of today isn't fiscal conservatives. They're not even Constitutional Conservatives.
Thank you. I'll check that out.
The LP's platform is utopian-istic. Anarcistic? Not really. It just brings us back to fiscal conservatism. Or at least the last one I read did(a few years ago).
Fiscal conservatism isn't allowed in the GOP. Especially when the GOP has the majority and the POTUS. It's none existent. It's pretty sad when republican voters complain about the current debt, and blame it solely on the democrats or Biden, without acknowledging the fact that the entire debt wasn't created after Biden took office. All that debt that accumulated during every GOP president and every GOP majority in the house, helped to build that debt. Trump was a huge spender. But getting his worshippers to admit it is impossible. Getting them to admit that the current inflation hike has a lot to do with Trump & Pelosi's spending is just as impossible.
Spending and debt is a big part of the LP's platform. It's also part of the RNC's platform. Only the Republicans don't adhere to their own platform when they're in power.
Why? IMO it's because they, like the democrats, are owned and not allowed to be fiscal conservatives. Which is why I support voting out all incumbents, from both parties for at least the next 3 elections.
Republicans and democrats have ruled over this country for 153 years now. And all they've done is get us into wars with countries that posed no threat to us, they've created a $30 trillion debt to the Federal Reserve (with interest), they've created a monetary system where $10hr is a poverty wage. And soon, $15hr will be a poverty wage. And in the mean time, made it almost impossible for American manufacturers to compete on a global scale because of the high wages and over inflated USD value.
And until the LP's start getting elected, or people stop supporting people like Trump in favor of fiscal and constitutional conservatives, nothing is going to change.
