I support a STRONG Military and a National Policy of Targeted and Disproportionate Retaliation.
Not because I want war, but to deter war, and where there is war, to decisively and quickly win that war, and to deter future provocations to war, so as to avoid future wars...

I'm pro-life, but I don't want to eliminate planned parenthood, I want to take there clientele, I want to build the black community, hispanic community, poor white community up, so we have so much value in our babies that it chokes them off from their clientele.

As I have said many of people are not conservative, at least not constitutionally. The test of a constitutional conservative is sticking to principles even when it's inconvenient relative to your personal views socially/culturally.

You can advocate for and protect the constitution and republican form of government or you can legislate your personal brand of lazy morality, not both. Those seeking to force cultural morality on others are no better than despots.

The origin of the republican party was a conglomerate of ideals both social and cultural, different ethnic backgrounds and genders, but with a unified ideal of governance.

Conservatism isn't sexy, it doesn't put on a red laced outfit and call you big daddy. Conservatism is a new pair of Tims and a Rapter to get to work, it requires effort and engagement in our communities to evangelize cultural Conservatism with our actions not legislation.

Government systems and agencies are not conservative and are inherently liberal/statist/marxist/progressive. Our answers for everything is community engagement, charity, personal responsibility, economic opportunity, educational opportunity, Capitalism, private market solutions.

You cannot say progressivism is destructive without presenting an alternative solution based on a better promise/ideology.
When discussing the ideas, you have to present a BETTER idea that produces BETTER results.

Any talking point that doesn't foster understanding or varnish a deeper examination is counterproductive. Imagine if the Lakers only wanted to Dunk on the Celtics but the Celtics played a dynamic game and ran up the score, afterward the Lakers say at least we aren't them.

Because these "REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS" understand money, I break it down to sales.
1. Don't insult your client
2. Your product/service are solutions
3. You are the salesman and are selling yourself as well.
4. The party is the brand

Many people think because government destroyed their communities, then government should fix them. That grants too much power to an inherently statist system, which promises to make government larger for the sake of “helping the people.”

The systemic racism exists from the perspective of the person living the the boot of systemic Marxism on their throat. While race is not explicitly mentioned anymore, these systems were created under democrat FDR and still exist today because we didn't remove them, we just left.

A person with no love for the community cannot deliver tough love. The entirety of the republican party is in the role of the absent father, the dems are an abusive mother and if the father was there to protect his child, they'd not be being abused. We must show love first.

Focus on solutions, focus on real people on the ground rather than the narrative of media pundits and Hollywood.

The media defined black culture to you as the top 1% and bottom 1% which is at best a gross mischaracterization and at worst a purposeful attack on a community based on race. The conversation is ALWAYS on BOTH sides had from this perspective. All your talking points illustrate it

We as conservatives fall into arguments that play out in media even when they don't apply to our personal experience or local environment. This is why people increasingly focus on federal government elections and solutions which always fail because all politics are local.
