[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]But the modern GOP is SO far out there that we are way past the point of philosophy [/quote]

And, the modern Dems are not?

Medicare for All
Open Borders
Sanctuary cities
Confiscate guns (see Swallwell's latest)
Condemn the police
Smaller defense force
Higher taxes for job making businesses
More welfare--even though it discourages work
etc
[/quote]

Medicare for all is basically what most of the western world does. If sort of works, and much better than our current system
No one supports open borders. No one.
I thought conservatives were for federalism and local rule and not strong central rule vis a vis sanctuary cities. Who pays for the local police to enact federal actions?
No one wants to confiscate guns. We just want sensible laws around preventing the mentally ill from legally purchasing guns, and perhaps some restrictions around assault weapons.
There are some police, just like some businessmen and some presidents, who are bad apple. They should be dealt with. That doesn't mean ALL police, ALL businessment or ALL presidents are bad.
On defense, our military is larger than the next 5 countries combined. It is a boogeyman to continue to spend as much as we do on our military without proper audits and understanding where the money is going.
Who is supporting more welfare? Most politicans follow the lead of what Bill Clinton did. If you are concerned about welfare, then let's look at white collar welfare.
