Nothing says "conservative" quite like destroying the thing you were supposed to conserve.
Someone promised them that they could preserve their perceived power. And return the world to a time that never existed. If you understand that conservatives have no ideology Beyond coveting power and wealth and purely reactionary behaviors. This is all very logical and understandable unfortunately.
What book was it???.... "The Party seeks power entirely for it's own sake. We're not interested in the good of others"
something, something, boot, face.
You forgot the end of the quote:
"we are interested solely in power."
Honestly most would be doing good to read a comic book. Though it might be an outlet that's a modern day Der Stürmer published by today's Julius Streicher
The only thing they want to conserve is their foot on our neck.
Only confused or disingenuous conservatives claim to want to conserve the government. That’s why you have conservative puppet masters encouraging celebrating Constitution Day; it helps their useful idiot non-fascists sell the ruse.
Actual conservatives, the ones in power, see the government either as an impediment to their agenda or a tool they can misuse to implement said agenda.
They're called conservative but they're actually regressive.
They want to conserve hierarchies, but only certain ones, and will work to create them if they do not already exist.
And the AP's reference to them as "Conservative" in the headline doesn't help. They should know better.
Yeah it should say Republican
Well tbf, democracy is sometimes inconvenient.
