Check again, conservatives are no longer fiscally conservative and have not been for several decades. That facade has entirely fallen away to reveal the real:
fundamentalist christians
racists
filthy rich people who want tax cuts for the rich (do not confuse this with being fiscally conservative)
That is exactly what fiscally conservative means. That’s 100% what I expect when a politician has conservative economic views. Conservatives value keeping the status quo, and the status quo is capitalism, with the rich getting richer.

They are fiscally conservative… but only for any government programs that aren’t tax cuts for the rich.
What do you think fiscally conservative means?
it should result in reducing the deficit - which republicans don’t and democrats do.
all the GOP does is cut the taxes of rich and raise the taxes of the middle class, while running up the deficit overall.

Your meds, take them
Being conservative ≠ liking the GOP
Being conservative = tangentially supporting GOP policies
Not every GOP policy is bad. Do you think stuff like freedom of speech is a bad thing?
