Conservatives? I’m completely fine with true conservatives. Honest, hard-working people who share a common belief in science, objective reality, statesmanship, and working together to solve a common problem? Yeah, I’m good with them within my Family and circle of friends. No h**e whatsoever. In fact, it’s respect and even some love — I can learn from a reasoned discussion between friends. We don’t have to agree on the severity of every problem, we don’t have to agree about the solutions to those problems. We do have to agree on the rule of law, on our democratic constitutional republic, on the rights of every American regardless of their race, color, g****r, or sexual orientation. And, we do. I socialize with many of these folks on a daily basis.
But, sadly, instead of conservatives, these days we have those who follow a crass/boorish former president. This collective of liars, white nationalists, KKKers, conmen, and shameless sycophants trade off the term conservative as a brand name, not a political or economic philosophy. Many of these are people who can’t tell the t***h to save their lives, can’t even recognize the t***h. They’re apparently in full thrall to a self-aggrandizing conman and serial liar ex-president.
These are the people opposing our democratic constitutional republic. They’re those who stormed the Capitol on J****** 6th, 2021. They’re the ones passing laws to prevent people of color from v****g in red states. They’re the ones passing laws that will make it legal for red state legislatures to entirely toss out the v**e of the people for no valid reason. They’re the people who actually believe the silly fantasy that Donald Trump didn’t lose the 2020 e******n, and lose “bigly”.
There’s no reasoning with them. Like my Dad and many others of that era, who fought totalitarian f*****m overseas, there are those of us who will fight every effort to k**l America and install a dictator here. Revile is a perfect term for how I feel about anyone who’d like to k**l our democratic constitutional republic. Sad is how I feel for those too mentally weak to see through the t***sparent lies of the fool that is our infamous former president..
