by "Trump Republicans" he means "Trumptard."
That's just the socially acceptable version.
I'd vote for Amash. He understands the office of the president -- to faithfully execute the laws (not make up his own shit).
But just the other day you HondoBros said he was far right. Now you’d vote for a classical liberal?
Making I’m making progress here.
I'd vote for any sane person for president over Trump, but Amash is classical conservative (a real, not faux one like the Trumpublicans)
"Classical Conservative" is an oxymoron. Amash is a "classical liberal".
Technically, both conservatives and liberals are 'classic liberals' in the sense they both derive from the thinking of John Locke.
Then it turns into a split like the Catholics and the Protestants. Both Christians, but divergent in their practice.
Not really. Modern day conservatives have deviate quite a bit for classical liberals. Particularly when it comes to religion.
Conservatives today are even miles apart from those is the 60s and 70s. But to be fair, a democrat “progressive” in 1960 wouldn’t get elected mayor running as a democratic today’s.
