WHAT 'conservative values' would those be?

RL — 9/6/2018 10:09:36 PM (archived)

Seriously... what values does Trump stand for other than his personal self-preservation and enrichment... NAME ONE!

You are less than 10 years older than I am- yet you presume to lecture about how things have changed since WWII?

Trump has betrayed every damn thing conservatives publicly claimed to believe in, and you all went along with it because you thought you had a chance to stick it to the liberals...

You have no values- you threw those out the window long ago- and filled that void within yourselves with bigotry and fear... blaming muslims, blaming immigrants, blaming homosexuals for the hardships you repeatedly inflicted on yourselves by electing conservatives... Conservatives that convinced you that if we only funneled more money to the corporate interests they would make your lives better...

You have no values, and now that you voted for Trump, you cannot even PRETEND that you do... the charade you comforted yourself with is over- you exposed yourself, and are upset that no one likes what they see.

You said:

"Ripping” children from their mothers arms was a long overdue deterrent.

THOSE are the 'values' you speak of? Your values and value are worthless.
