I do know the answer, my question was rhetorical. Conservatives have bent the knee before Trump, and essentially anointed him as an autocrat. In doing so, virtually all conservatives have abandoned most of the principles of "movement conservatism". Small, local government, judicial restraint, fiscal conservatism, self responsibility and self reliance, checks-and-balances between branches of government have all been at best abandoned, but mostly reversed. Previous to Trump, we were all (including especially the press) told to treat these as almost sacred principles to conservatives, things they could not possibly cut deals on or minimize or compromise. Demanding that conservative's beliefs be treated as sacred has been revealed as a rhetorical device, given the rapidity of a complete reversal. The conclusion forced upon us all is that previous to Trump, conservatives were lying about how important those principles were to them. The very tenuous hold is apparent, revealing the hypocritical nature of the "moral high ground" that conservatives demanded for themselves.
It's really quite disappointing.
