Fine. Let's leave Trump out of it.

Billions in tax cuts for the wealthy (after pointless, lying, reckless brinksmanship over the debt ceiling and spending we "can't afford"). Trillion-dollar wars. Removing access to legal abortion. Terrorizing trans kids and their parents. Outrageously gerrymandering voting districts and other stunts to reduce minority access and influence in government. I could to on and on. These things aren't differences in political opinion; they are calculated actions to make America less free and less equal.

And if you're not pro-Trump, where was the outcry about Jan 6? Bullied and intimidated by Trump and his followers is effectively the same thing as support. You voted Republican, I assume, i.e. for Trump. And your next likely candidate, DeSantis, is hardly a poster child for conservatism.

Now the House has censured Adam Schiff for actually doing his job, while bringing groundless, tit-for-tat articles of impeachment against Biden? You must be so proud.

Please tell us more about the key differences between Trump and "conservatives" or how this feeble-minded tantrum machine played "conservatives" like a fiddle. You can't have it both ways.

Oh, and please, please, please don't bring this autocratic "conservatism" to Spain, which is trying hard to move in a reasonable political direction with multiple parties who must consequently discuss and compromise.
