Trump’s Instincts Are Conservative

Conservatism Works Every Time It’s Tried —
CALLER: … people are jazzed, and they may not have thought Trump was the ticket at first. But he’s the real deal and the conservative message is coming through. I just think, you know, you pegged it years ago, and you’ve said it and you’ve said it and you’ve lamented that we’ve had other Republicans who just never were 100%. Finally, we’ve got somebody who’s got our backs.
RUSH: You’re absolutely right. I remember what I said. Conservatism works every time it’s tried. If we just put somebody up there who’s got the guts to be conservative and not water it down the way the Washington establishment wants it watered down, it’ll work. It works everywhere it’s implemented…. This is what so irritates the Never Trumpers. Trump himself is not a lifelong conservative activist like they are. He’s not been writing research papers, he’s not been studying the intricacies of Edmund Burke, and he couldn’t tell you who Friedrich Hayek is. But his instincts are as conservative when it comes to implementation and design of policy, as any president we’ve had since Ronaldus Magnus. He’s showing that we don’t need all these intellectuals to try to influence members of Congress.
