Latest comment: 4 years ago by 69.250.215.194 in topic Donald Trump shouldn't be on this graphic
- Donald Trump is not an adequate replacement for Jack Kemp. While Kemp progressed Conservatism in America, Trump represents a distinctly different political movement. Trump may have run on a traditionally Conservative nomination, but only a handful of his policies coincide with conservatism. Hardly two of them are mentioned in the overall article. Trump represents a clear political movement in America, but it is not "conservatism." Rather, if a replacement for Kemp is necessary, a number of other popular conservatives more closely align with American conservatism. They include Cruz, the Bush family, Mitt Romney, chief justice Roberts, and more.
Replace Alto with Tucker Carlson
editI don't think Alto is much of a recognizable conservative figure, he should be replaced by Tucker Carlson or another pundit such as Bill O'Reilly or Glenn Beck. MyPreferredUsernameWasTaken (talk) 17:43, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
- I agree on putting a pundit in. It seems strange to have three recent Supreme Court justices taking up a whole row, and Alito hasn't been anywhere near as influential to conservatism as Thomas and Scalia. — Tartan357 (Talk) 21:23, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
Donald Trump shouldn't be on this graphic
editJack Kemp should be returned to this graphic. Perhaps you could put a Paul Ryan instead. There are many options but Donald Trump does not espouse conservative policy, values or principles. If this was a graphic about the Republican Party, of course, you could put Donald Trump on it. However, Donald Trump has no ties to the conservative movement in a historical or even in a present-day sense. 69.250.215.194 (talk) 23:01, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
