Trump is not a traditional conservative. He's not even a conservative. He may be starting what is the end of the GOP. A fractured party without an identity. Yes they currently have control of congress, but how long can it last when your party no longer has an identity, and women, Hispanics, and African Americans now see the party for what it really is? Those 3 groups are the majority now. He has pulled the curtain back and really damaged the brand among these demographics. More so than before. And I thank him for that.
