honest question. I hear the term "Conservative " thrown around this board incessantly , so I thought it would be interesting to hear from "conservatives" on this board how you would personally define it. The term has become somewhat illusive to me in the past 15yrs or so.
To clarify things, a conservative you are not. Not even close. I can easily see you voting for Kamala or Gavin Newsom in 2028. You have made it very clear you despise Republicans.
to clarify, I never said I was a conservative and it is not your place to define me. I'm certainly not a conservative that many nuts on this board purport them to be. You are making some really bad and untrue assumptions which is a big problem on your part. I'm a lifelong republican till Trump. Now Independent/Liberitarian. I have voted Dem. 1 time in my life. So, you need to quit with the judgement of people you know NOTHING about. Get over your nut job self.
Why "until Trump"? He is quite literally doing everything that the Republicans wanted to do during the time you claim to be Republican. He is more Republican than anyone that we have had in many years (sorry George)


The funny thing about JR, before he departed the board for his mourning period prior to the election, he railed on Trump and how he treated people. All the while posting boisterous and inflammatory and accusatory words himself. In other words, he was acting the part he claimed to hate.

Now that the inevitable has happened and Trump has won, seems like JR has been able to work through his angst and push down his TDS a bit (just a bit), as I haven't hated his posts lately. Maybe he hit rock bottom and leveled up and out. We'll see how long it lasts. Welcome back JR.

I think he figured out that I wasn't insulting the new and improved JR 2.0

Glad he's back, even though I disagreed 99% of the time. Don't like anyone here to leave. Takes all types to keep this board interesting.

None of that is historical minutia in this context.

Trump is the best president we've had since Reagan. But that's not saying much because most of them were terrible. I did not see him as a Republican since he wasn't one j til he css as me down the escalator. But he has become one since then and has real accomplishments, some that are better than either Bush.
