Boy where to start with this meandering bog of simplistic platitudes. First of there are alt-right and old school conservatives and never the twain shall meet. That is what is tearing apart the Republican party as we speak. Just this week several of the main conservative core have decided to not run again for their posts due to the rancor within the party, and the refusal to bow to white supremacists and Nazism. The problem is everything Trump is trying to do now is actually trampling on the Constitution. The most important point is that there are several different degrees of liberals and conservatives, as well as varying degrees of socialism. I'm sure the survivors of Harvey and Irma are quite glad we have that "socialist" money to help out in times of crisis. There is only so much "trickle down" can do in these cases. Liberals do not want "the government to control every aspect of our lives." They are just savvy enough to know that private industry will not cover even their own taxes
