A note to so-called "conservatives": if you do not wholeheartedly approve of everything

Trump has ever done or may do in the future, you are not a Republican; you are a "RINO".

Donald Trump purchased the GOP several years ago. Their "platform"--- what they stand for and hope to achieve--- is simply whatever Trump says it is at the moment. He may change it tomorrow or 5 minutes from now or within the same sentence in which it is announced so, if you really want to be a Republican, listen carefully and constantly to anything he says. If it seems ridiculous, the problem is with you so just nod and smile. NEVER question his pronouncements.

If you are not willing to commit to Trumpism, I really don't know what you are going to call yourself, since "Republican" no longer really fits, "conservative" has become synonymous with "cruel, unprincipled and greedy" and I doubt you'll voluntarily adopt "RINO".

Here's an idea: if you really, sincerely, genuinely care about your fellow men and women and you think that "Golden Rule" thing is a pretty decent idea, you could wade past all the bullshit about us you've had shoveled at you for all those years and join the party that does more for you and yours: join the "DEMOCRATIC" Party! ( NOT the "Democrat" Party. )

You can help us "Make Government Decent Again".
