Would this new party pull fiscal conservatism out of a hat, or would we still keep defining fiscal conservative as tax cuts above all else?
Is it the nativist/protectionist wing that’s forcing them to act in a way that’s not fiscally conservative? If not, why would the new splinter party act in that manner?
Or do you just mean they’ll say that they’re the party of fiscal responsibility over and over again, and people will inexplicably believe it?
Too late. Did you see all those food-fight-level debates? Do you remember last fall, when for weeks on end, nobody of consequence wanted to be House Speaker?
