What's also funny is what is considered conservative today wasn't consider conservative 30 years ago. Not that either of them are right. Just that a conservative from 30 years ago would not agree with a conservative of today. They would consider what Trump did blastphamous to the extreme.

@DeWayfarer Anything Reagan - the great GOP god - ever said would outrage today's conservatives. They've strayed so far from their own platform they no longer even recognize it.

@Graylight you need to take a look at your own party... they used to be for the little guy, the worker. they also used to be anti-socialist. not any more.

@boudinMan this is one thing that McCarthyism has shown to be consistent throughout the Republican parties history.

And that's the false accusation that the democratic party has ties to the communism/socialism.

That's about the only thing that has remained the same in the Republican party.

Please read up on Joseph McCarthy and McCarthyism and the thousands that they falsely accused before you say that.
