    Translation: If you're a conservative who opposes Trump, yet you still favor lower taxes, the presumption of innocence, defending the right to life, etc., you are just as bad as the Alt-Right (and will be treated as such).https://twitter.com/JessicaAbrams3/status/1044788700884885504 …

    These days if you call yourself "center right", meaning you don't have a huge issue with separating families, giving major tax giveaways to the super rich and all the rest, then you may as well be alt-right. We lost those people a long time ago.

        If you oppose Trump, but support his tax cuts, his family separation policy, his Supreme Court nominees, etc., etc. are you really opposing Trump?

        I’m not sure I know of an anti trump republicans that favor family separation. Otherwise Jeb bush or Rubio would have given us tax cuts and judges. These aren’t trumpian original ideas.

        Don't forget #AlwaysTrumpers think #NeverTrumpers aren't true conservatives. Seems like being center is a open-for-attack kind of place these days.

        This is the problem Matt. If you’re a moderate Republican you’re going to stick with the “team” you agree with 90% of the time not the “team” which compares you to Nazis. This all in or nothing at all mentality is so distritive to the Republic.

        I would like to know the meaning of center right. I am fiscally conservative (which republicans abandon every time we have a republican POTUS) and socially liberal. There are things I would think a center right person would have liked about Obama, yet I haven't found it.

        Your exercise today on Twitter is curious. Would this be the same as me getting shamed as a “libtard” by most conservative people I know, despite being a pretty fiscally conservative guy? Am I to publish these missives online? If so, why? To pout? To prove we’re divided? 🤔🤔🤔

        Division isn't necessarily bad. Civil society is strengthened through policy disagreement and good faith debate. But saying you're to assume the bad faith of everyone who fails to identify with your political bloc is the opposite of that.

        How does one oppose Trump without actually opposing much of what he standards for?

        I am a conservative who opposes Trump. Please feel free to ask me my views on any of the topics named in both tweets. I’m not a GOP operative and I have never hosted a fundraiser. In interest of full disclosure, I did once buy 12 tomato stakes so I could put up Rubio 2016 signs.
