‘Will McCain-Style Conservatism Live On?’
11th May 2018
One of the characteristics of those who write for tReason magazine is that, just as they don’t really recognize who they are politically, they don’t have a clue as to what other people are, either.
Anyone who would characterize McCain as ‘conservative’ is jacked so far to the Left that it isn’t funny. McCain is an old-line nationalist Democrat, like Bloomberg, and the only reason he pretends to be a Republican is because he can’t stomach being in the same party as Nancy Pelosi and ChuckYou Schumer.
Certainly McCain-style ‘whatever’ will live on, as long as there are people who see value in being ‘mavericks’ (i.e. selling out their own nominal side for personal political gain), but that is hardly a good thing.
