That's because I'm tired of entertaining "whataboutism."
You're not stupid. You know what Trump promised, and you know what he's backtracked on. He made a lot of conservative-sounding promises.
I didn't ask a speculative "what about" type question. I simply asked who, in the last 30 years, has governed more conservatively in their first 5 months. By your non-answer, its rather clear that you understand the real answer is "no one". I know what he's promised, but he hasn't backed down on anything...he HAS had to accept that in many cases he can only achieve what congress is willing to pass. A reality every president faces....we all know that a Presidential candidate is promising to fight for the things he campaigns on...and I would hope we all equally understand that he's not elected dictator, but rather, president. As such, he is not empowered to attain everything he wants and is fighting for...he must exist in a Republic and so must compromise to achieve even the partial attainment of these goals.
You seem to think he can step in and achieve every campaign goal and every conservative goal...by fiat. It does not work that way, and that is an impossible standard. Reagan himself could not do so, so its rather unfair to hold that as a measure for Trump. The measuring stick is what he's fighting for, and in every case he's striving to attain the MOST conservative legislation possible...and he is complementing that effort with EO's, rules and in some cases regulations that move forward the conservative cause.
So I'd ask again, who has governed more conservatively in their first 5 months (1989-2017)? I understand you will again evade answering, but please don't pretend that's an unfair or "what about" question...in reality, its a question that measures the current president by previous Republican/Conservative Chief Executives. That's a fair standard...unless you simply think every GOP president is actually a liberal Manchurian candidate.
