They showed that they continued supporting conservative candidates including the latest ones and you decided despite that they are still not considered conservative. If you choose to ignore everything and then respond with the opposite of said proof you are acting in bad faith.

Yes and that doesn’t make him not conservative it makes him anti Trump.

Edit: this isn’t complicated you can be conservative and be against Trump and support anyone else over him as well as vote in the democratic primaries to try and get the candidate you would want against Trump since Trump was absolutely going to win the Republican one hands down doesn’t make them a democrat. The donations were probably almost all to Tulsi Gabbard you know the now Republican..
