The ACA has been a major benefit for my family, so you’re barking up the wrong tree with that nonsense, Tex.

No they are definitely NOT conservative. Conservatives believe in traditional values and at least make an attempt to live them. Conservatives believe in small government and protecting our constitutional rights. Conservatives believe in a strong foreign policy, support NATO and work to contain nations like Russia and China.
Trump supporters are populist NOT conservatives.

In that case you should be thanking me, you're welcome for the subsidies and the "free money" that came from our tax dollars, Hoss.

Lol..whatever. You happily sent it to Iraq and Afghanistan. Why don’t you ask THEM to thank you?

Give it to an American, and you sit around preening as if you’re doing someone a favor.

Most likely an anti Trumper. Just the name of McJudas says enough.
Max Boot. And no he’s not an anti Trumper.

Just saying, kind of the pot calling the kettle black calling other political groups "reactionary". And honestly, it steals the left's thunder. If those who oppose the president were a bit more conservative about when they call the president out or display their hate, they might be taken more seriously. But the ultra-reactionary behavior of those on the left has caused most people to shrug off whatever "meltdown" story the left has put forward that day. Hard to take anyone seriously when they go crazy over even the smallest things. Save your outrage for the things that matter, and you will further your cause. Otherwise, most people will simply assume this is the latest left-wing meltdown story and move on.
Read the wiki link. It's a type of political belief, not really "reactionary" in the way you're using it in your post.

There is no way I’d want Obama back, but that doesn’t mean I like Trump. Trump is a huge embarrassment and a terrible president, but he doesn’t, or hasn’t yet, hurt my pocketbook like Obama did. Insurance hikes took 10% (more) of my income under Obama, that’s ridiculous and inexcusable. Trump giving me exemptions for health insurance saved my business, for that alone I am grateful, but leaving me without insurance isn’t positive either, basically they said, Obama screwed up big time for small business owners, but we don’t have an actual solution either. So no I don’t support Trump. Any other Republican would have been better, any of them.

The guy sounds less like a conservative and more like a deep stater.
