    if it wasn't for Liberal-Progressives, Asians and other non-whites would be banned from immigrating to the USA.

    Conservatives seek to maintain the small white majority that's left in the USA

    Conservatism is an ideology that all Americans must embrace if the nation is to survive. Race is only a factor in the progressive mind.

    Truly, what can/should be applauded (wherever it is indicated), is the decline of right wing extremism. America has seen a plethora of that recently, and we've had about enough of it. And yes, we're already constitutionally sickened, by the same.

    This is the same faulty logic and strategy the Republicans used in 2012. The Republicans will get 30% +\- 5% of the Hispanic vote no matter what. About 60% of the electorate is conservative (in the proper meaning of the term). Establishment Republicans would be far better off paying little attention to Hispanics and Afro-Americans and maybe appealing to their conservative base by not beating the crap out of them.

    Nope. I'm sorry but you are *still* being misled by the polls. The polls are heavily weighted to the leftist coastal elite population centers instead of to middle America where Trump's strength actually is.

    What *TRUMP* is selling is still popular with middle America. The GOP establishment not so much. It's why so many of the GOP establishment will not be running for re-election. Even Rand Paul has shot his wad with Kentucky. He and McConnell will *not* be re-elected.

    The Marxist Democrats are in even *worse* shape because they listen to all the polls that are wrong, just like they did before the election, and listen to all the demographic BS they listened to before the election!

    You just aren't paying attention. Trump won with middle America, the ones that understand in their gut what the FF's understood. The FF's would be aghast at what the Marxist Democrats are pushing today. For instance - the popular vote instead of the EC! The FF's knew what has happened with mob rule all throughout history. So does Trump. But not the Marxist Democrats!

    This demographic shift isn't good for the country. When all the Republicans (the makers) are gone, we'll just have a nation of Democrats (the takers).

    When everyone is on government assistance, who pays for it?

    Those in their 30's today are FAR more conservative than marxist. They have found out about the old adage of heart vs mind.

    Those in college don't vote. And Trump got far more minority votes than the Marxist Democrats expected. The canary in the mine?

    You don't even realize that much of the animus toward Weinstein today from the left is actually anti-Semitism, do you? Harvey was accepted as long as he was rich and in charge. Now? He's just another Jew for Hollywood to hate!

    When the establishment GOP can't replace Obamacare and look like they may not pass tax reform then how can they be called fiscally conservative?

    Asians are the ones that would be allowed in larger numbers. They actually CONTRIBUTE more than they cost Americans!

    I just noticed you changed your post after I quoted you.

    Your original post said this:

    LOL youre not a conservative, you're a Republican - big difference.

    I have it quoted in my response.

    Then for some reason you changed it to this:

    LOL youre not a conservative, you're a party guy - big difference.

    First off, I'm not a "guy". That's why it says "female" in my gender over there <-------------

    Secondly, I'm not a "big party" anything. I'm a Republican. As you said the first time.

    I know you aren't a Republican. None of you Trump devotees are Republicans. Neither is he. Thanks for confirming that you detest the Republican Party and want to see it destroyed. That's why the smart people didn't vote for Trump. We don't share your liberal leanings and desire for Democrats to run the country again. We also don't share your anger and bitterness.

    Ask Donald Trump. He promised it to you. Not me. I don't care if the ACA gets replaced or not. It doesn't bother me that Obama was once President and is black. I leave that to you guys to try to eliminate him from history. And they would have passed tax reform if the "leader" of the party didn't intentionally alienate every Senator who can actually implement tax reform.

    Congratulations on electing someone who wants to screw the real fiscal conservatives of the country. Well done.

    The establishment GOP are *not* the real conservatives of the country! How many years were they in charge of the House and Senate? And did NOTHING!
    They *still* aren't doing anything with a Republican in as President!

    Trump *is* the only one doing anything - and he's doing it with executive orders and regulation reform. And the establishment GOP continue to cut their own throats by opposing Trump. If they aren't careful Ted Cruz *could* be majority leader next year!

    Because Trump has been such a great leader, right?

    What has he done? Besides nominate Gorsuch - who McConnell ensured was voted to the bench?

    Ted Cruz, the "pu$$y" whose father killed JFK?

    You sound like a diehard Trumper. I have no credible data that would indicate whether "Those in their 30's are FAR more" totalitarian, libertarian, or rotarian.

    Old adages aside, the canary croaks when left in an abandoned shaft, and the prospects for mining are bleak (https://www.washingtonpost.com/busi...d727b644a0b_story.html?utm_term=.71b92be6d0cb), whereas Hispanic and Black Christian congregations are thriving.

    It's the Republican Party's fault IMO for being absent an ideology. Saying "no" is not a governing philosophy, and it allowed it to be hijacked by Trump as a consequence. Hopefully, Republican hopefuls plan for a brighter future that includes a mode of governing to fix problems and not allow demagogues in their ranks.

    Marxist Democrats like you *never* listen. That's why Trump is President!

    go here: http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/07/health/millennials-conservative-generations/index.html

    Like most Marxist Democrats you have absolutely no knowledge of economics. The article you reference speaks only to *direct* mining jobs. But any direct mining jobs create more jobs downstream As we export more coal there will be more jobs in the railroad industry, in jobs at the export ports, *and* in the mining industry itself. And that is just *some* of the jobs that will be grown.

    Ask yourself why Trump got so many Hispanic and black votes - especially in those areas where he actually visited black churches. Both Hispanics and blacks are very economic oriented just like the rest of us. As the economy expands *their* boats will be lifted as well. Nothing breeds votes like economic success!

    Wanna know what it doesn't take into account? Americans who emigrated OUT of the country. Which have increased in the recent years. The sheer negativity from one's neighbors and sometimes higher taxes have a lot to do with it.
