Makes me rabidly furious. “Rules for thee, but not for me.”

The laws and rules are now selectively enforced only against those that don't submit to the head of enforcement. The head of enforcement may ignore the laws however they wish...

Four legs good. Two legs better.

They're conservatives. That's the core premise of the ideology. For each "thing", prevent any progress that helps anyone other than the conservatives. If previous progress has made things worse for conservatives, revert that progress.

No, that’s stupid. You’re replying to someone who would consider themselves fairly conservative. And in my mind conservatives follow and respect the rules and traditions. This is not following or respecting anything.

Though I will say, it’s been very clear to me since Trump ran in 2016 that he is not actually a “conservative” and that the GOP has been crumbling into degeneracy under him

Trump is a businessman, at best, and a snake oil salesman or cult leader more accurately. He talks and people follow.

He's definitely not a 'conservative'.

  > GOP has been crumbling into degeneracy under him
