Centrist here. Voted R at the Federal level my whole life until 2016. I like the conservative ideas of personal freedom, limited government, respect for the constitution, and fiscal responsibility. I also believe that our leaders should honor the offices they hold and be held to a moral standard.
It's very hard to reconcile the Iran War, masked anonymous secret police not caring about the fourth amendment, Trump wanting a coin minted with his face while he's in office, blantant disregard for court rulings, overuse of executive orders in place of actually passing laws, or really much that has gone on on either of his terms with anything resembling either conservative principals or personal ethics. And the party leader is one of the most named people in the Epstein files, clearly trying to cover that up, and being protected by others in his party.
It's not leftist shit. I just want the republican party that actually cared about the working class back. And for any and all child molesters to rot in jail.
