    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted AG

    The Right has always welcomed converts. In Trump, I think folks on our side were far too quick to put one in charge without proof of conversion.https://twitter.com/AGHamilton29/status/1162193450558722049 …

    It's also weird that they keep saying stuff like that. Trump was a lifelong Democrat who associated with all of the top Dems. He's changed on some things, but maintained many of the same views. So how does someone square that with all righties have same views as Trump?

        If "the Right" was so quick to change their views to accommodate Trump - did they really have those views to begin with?

        The folks who put Trump in office spend a LOT less time than we do thinking about who's a true conservative. I bet not one in 10,000 Dems could tell you what progressivism is. One in 9,990 R's could tell you what conservatism is.

        You have your number backwards. Progressives know what it is, it’s a matter of to what degree. Conservatives? Can you even in the slightest bit call Trump a conservative? That’s just ridiculous, Obama was 10x the con based on the deficit. Hell all dems are compared to Trump.

        Being open to converts to your shrinking position is not revelatory but indicative of a possible flexible minority seeking acknowledgment. Do you think the left doesn’t welcome converts? If not, what do you think it takes to be one?

        This has got to be one of your even less thought out tweets. Of course your party accepts anyone it can because it’s bleeding. It’s bleeding support like a dying party. It can’t stand on policy that works so it’s turned into a hate fest catering to racists, bigots & billionaires

        Trump never changes. He didn't pull a fast one on you. He just spoke to what was already there. Conservatives decided that was conservatism.
