So Trump's Not A "Conservative"? ... So What?

So Trump's Not A "Conservative"? ... So What?


I guess it all depends on what you mean by conservative.

If by conservative you mean someone like Paul Ryan who punks out when our muslim-in-chief says BOO! or Boehner being said mussies' bitch then I guess Trump's not a conservative.

If by conservative you mean it to be in agreement on EVERYTHING you think goes with the "cache' " then I guess Trump's not a conservative.

If by conservative you mean neo-conservative (Liberal-Lite masquerading as conservatism.) then I guess Trump's not a conservative.

If by conservative you mean being one of those "little old ladies of both sexes who want their tomorrows to be like their yesterdays only more so" then I guess Trump's not a conservative.

Rob Knowles has an article on the Constitution dot com blog titled: Trump Has 'Evolved' on These Four Major Issues Since Cruz Dropped Out.

Here are the "Four Major Issues":

"Trump changed his position on raising the minimum wage"

I myself am against the minimum wage on principle. In practice ... Well ... having been on the receiving end of a few asshole employers in my time, I just ... KNOW ... that if the minimum wage was abolished, a LOT of the above would really try to stick it to their workers in one form or another.

Face it. If the bastards had their way, we'd all be housed in tents, put to work at age 3, a bowl of steam for lunch and fed to the rest at age 35.

And don't give me that krap about quitting and working somewhere else. That really "goes" in a recession, doesn't it? If I knew I'd be working somewhere else the next day, I would. Usually circumstances are that you're stuck for the time being. Yeah, I'm looking but don't try "cheering" me up with doctrinaire "libertarian" bullkrap.

"Trump walked back his tax plan"

He was talking about his plan not being ironclad in the face of negotiating with Congress. There will always be give and take in any dealing and not everything will come out exactly as stated originally. What were you thinking people? That Trump is a magic genie who'll SHAZZAM "heaven on earth" into being? Grow up!

"Trump will no longer be self funding"

and

"Trump hired a former Goldman Sachs man to help him funraise"

I'm surprised Mr. Trump has gotten as far as he has on self funding his campaign. Yeah, he's a billionaire but even that has limits. Doesn't bother me in the least he's now looking for outside help. And yes, he's still going to spend some of his own money on his campaign. Not many politicians do that.

Some idiots have told me Mr. Trump has no business being in politics because he's a businessman. To which I reply "Politicians have no business being in business because they're politicians."

When I saw the "headline" about "Four Major Issues" I thought it was about gun control, homeland security, border security, etc. Instead it's about comparatively nothing.

For those "purists" who won't vote for Mr. Trump:

I'm not going to say "A vote for a third party candidate is a vote for Clinton." You've heard that before and in your smug, "principled", pure little hearts you KNOW you're right as right can be for ever and ever amen.

No I won't say that ... rather:

You bitches deserve the bitch ...
