Conservatives have something going for them, consistency. We have certain principles, live by them and believe in them. No politician or employer can take them away or give them to us. Even if you voted for Donald Trump, you want him to do conservative things. Even populists nationalists are applauding Trump for his conservative moves. Also, Sen Ted Cruz calls in to discuss Neil Gorsuch, Betsy DeVos, and the confirmation hearings. Cruz said although the Democrats may delay the confirmation of President Trump’s Cabinet nominees and his pick for the Supreme Court, ultimately they are going to lose. The Senate is going to be the battleground for fighting these confirmation fights. The Democrats right now are in a state of denial, and a state of rage. They cannot believe this election result and they’re angry at the American people. After that, if the Trump Administration is going to compare itself to Reagan then two things it will not do are pursue massive tariffs or infrastructure spending. Trump met with Harley Davidson executives on Thursday and gave a very thin explanation of what Reagan did for Harley in the 1980’s. Reagan said yes we need temporary tariffs and free trade but rejected the Steve Bannon and Wilbur Ross view of protectionism and trade. Reagan did not believe in tariffs and that is why he brought up Smoot Hawley during a speech on free trade. Trump and his senior advisor should at least get their facts straight. Finally, China and communism are on the move and Trump is duking it out with Australia. Australia has always been a close ally of ours. Our allies were looking forward to a new president – this is ridiculous.
