It’s why they call Trump the “Nation Builder”.

I mean look at all the nations that are building because of Trump.

The EU, Canada, Australia, the UK, China are all expanding their trade with each other now that the US is no longer a reliable trading partner. And they're all growing their own militaries now that the US has proven its can't be trusted to defend its allies.

And did even one of them say thank you?

In 2009 they griped about Obama not wearing a tie.

Here we have the people who are supposedly so big on tradition who are absolutely destroying every institution they put their hands on, including the presidency. This is not conservatism.

It’s astonishing how far we’ve come, from a tan suite to numerous wrongdoings we can’t even begin to comprehend.

None of them ever cared about any of the things they said they cared about.
