Even though, I'm much more than certain that he voted for Trumpty.

The word conservative means nothing anymore anyway. Look at all the teabaggers who voted to add trillions in debt.

They are trying to change this country and have already changed it in a very bad way with radical actions and ideas. The Democrats are trying to keep (conserve) the positive things that we have: social security, Medicaid, health care, programs for the poor and disabled, conserve the environment and wildlife. The Republicans have gone off the rails - way to the right and the Democratic Party is more to the center- left. Many of us here think THEY are too conservative and centrist.

You could, I guarantee, check the DU archives, and find me referring to them as the radical right, all the way back to 2001!
Conservative is far too benign.
