Are you a trump supporter? Or a “conservative R” of the old school branch?

If you are the former, why?

If the latter, how do you see the party purging this new harmful wing?

Why do you think we care? Are we supposed to be impressed?

I did not vote for Trump in 2020 (first time I was old enough to vote in a presidential election) in either the primary or the general. However, I would say that I lean somewhat more his way than the way of old-school Rs.

There are some specific policies that I think need to be implemented. Regarding college, I think Parent Plus Loans, in particular, need to stop being given out completely, and Graduate Plus Loans need to have hard caps on how much can be given out. I think that for future students, student loan interest rates for federal loans should be increased.

I support American Exceptionalism. I want this country to prioritize increasing the birthrate, and to phase out DACA. Drastically increase marriage rates and decrease fatherlessness, which is the cause of so many of the issues we face today.

How are you going to convince your party to give tax incentives to married couples and parents rather than "job creators" and the idle rich?

1-I’m from a former industrial town in the Northeast. I go to college in DC.
2-Roman Catholic
3-Low 100,000s HHI
4-Some people would probably call him “controlling,” but I think he is better described as being a strong captain of the household

I saw a lot of youthful naïveté in the op’s wishlist. Increase fatherhood? Yeah, dude. Good luck with that on a national level. Sht in one hand and wish in another and see which one fills up first.

I believe that welfare and abortion contribute to fatherlessness.

Why is your party tolerating that lying, poor quality, con artist George Santos. The voters and donors want their votes and money back please.

Sorry I meant “increase marriage rates” and “decrease fatherlessnessl”. You spout platitudes about that, but really that’s a social issue and social mores are changing rapidly. I think op is approaching this discussion from a religious angle and, there too, social are changing. Read some pew studies on religiousity and church attendance declines and you tell us how that will bode for marriage rates and basically a return to traditional
1950’s types of values.

I’m not. I think abortion is a cop out for fathers to not have to take care of their kid. They pressure women to get abortions. As for welfare, it should not be a better option than being a married couple.

It will bode well because the only people having kids in large numbers are the religious.
