What does republican and democrat even mean anymore? Republican used to be tied to the idea of conserving.
Nobody has conserved immigration in a very long time. Trump has brought it back into the conversation. Obama's deportations were catch and release at the border aka padded #s.
Foreign war is an establishment position that spans right and left.
Social justice and spending issues are two places where they split. Republicans have been completely and utterly ineffective at both. There's slightly less spending under republicans but over the long haul the deficit and debt are just an ever growing balloon. Republicans have conserved no social issues over the past 30 years.
Can anyone name some things republicans have conserved over the past 30 years? What does it really mean to be a republican?
