They were never conservative, Delingpole

James Delingpole is a delightful British columnist most noted for his skepticism about the quack climate change theory. He supports President Trump and is dismayed by those who still oppose our president.

Delingpole wrote, "Trump Derangement Syndrome has caused some conservatives – not all of us, thankfully – to lose sight of why it is that we fight.

"We fight because we’re right. And yes – as Trump is one of the few conservative presidents to get – it really is that simple."

It is even simpler.

They are not conservative.

They never were.

Well, I admit, I never was whatever Trump supposedly is.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

Anyone insisting that the neo-conmen gang of Podhoretz, Goldberg
and Kristol, were/are principled conservatives, has his head so far up
his rectum, that the pulley system used to lift ski gondolas to the top
of the Swiss Alps, would be necessary to extricate it.

That crowd always seemed more interested in keeping a respectable profile with their Georgetown neighbors than actually getting down and dirty to change the direction of the country. Just because CNN or MSNBC tells us they are Conservative as they introduce them on their programs doesn't mean it's so.
