    Yeah, but that means what they’re doing isn’t a dealbreaker for you. So you may not agree with them cutting funds from education, cutting taxes on the wealthy and corporations, voting no on providing free school lunch, or taking away abortion rights, but it doesn’t bother you enough to change your vote.

    So why would they change what they’re doing? It’s clearly working for them in a lot of places.

    Edited to add: Democrats don’t have the votes to pass abortion rights at the federal level.

      I like how you tell me what I am supposed to think and then rattle off a silly argument.

      I have clearly stated I’m not voting for anyone who isn’t pro-choice. So please; tell me how that didn’t change my vote?

        Okay, so it sounds like given the present situation you are abstaining to vote, voting third party, or are voting democrat until republican leaders get their nonsense together. That said, what exactly is it that makes you identify as conservative? Clearly it has to be something outside of present American political theater. Is it one of those ‘fiscal responsibility’ things? It seems like you are fine with social programs.

          It says a lot about you that you think feeding children should be controversial.

          As long as it’s healthy, I see little to argue about. If it’s junk food then I see where anyone should have an issue with it. That’s just sending tax payer money to corporate interest.

          Healthy, local food there isn’t much to debate in my opinion

            Look i realize you’re getting questioned here so you got defensive but I’m literally just asking what your conservative values are. We agree that feeding children is incontroversial but the republican leaders do not seem to agree and you’ve made a few claims as to your positions in the thread that seem to continue tbe trend of misaligning with American conservative leaders. Just tell me what your priorities are generally that don’t align with democrats because so far you sound like a dem. The floor is yours. Make me have more understanding of conservatives values.
