Donald Trump and US politics

Conservatives lack empathy and compassion. They also live their lives in fear.

That's a funny interpretation.

Liberals don't trust other people to be compassionate, so they try to force them to do so via force of law. They fear what others might do, so they ban and censure with reckless abandon.

I'm with Scrotie. If you ever out of curiosity do tune in to the self admitted tabloid fake news channel, might as well go straight to the biggest BS host of them all :)
B-but we weren't talking about Chris Cuomo.
When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

Not this guy. This is merely my feel regarding your question.
Spoiler
Although IIRC Downey played Cuomo once in a movie.
Spoiler
Ended up dying to Woody Harrelson. Good times.
Spoiler
Or was it Reza Aslan? I forget.
Spoiler
He sure was interested in natural born cannibals.

All I'm really trying to say is, Google is your friend.

Maybe not James Damore's friend, but yours, certainly.

I shouldn't need to tell you this.

For the sake of intellectual honesty, can we please stop calling them “liberals?”

To be fair Trumpists doesn't seem to be conservatives either.
Trumpsts hold allegiance with whichever side insures the greatest chance of anarchy. (Wherever Trump is at any given time)

I don’t disagree, but I also don’t have nearly as much issue with faux-conservatives as I do faux-liberals.

Edit: I want to amend something—I do not believe Trump represents conservatives (or the whole of conservativism). He is supported by many centrists who feel alienated by the regressive left, as well as those from left-of-center to right-of-center who are sick of the partisan establishment. What he really represents is a big middle finger to American politics.

It is to the right partisan establishment that I direct my comments on faux-conservatives. They, at least, are divided among many lines, represent a diversity of opinions, and contain at least a few conservatives. Their potential for harm is more-so contained than the social justice / communist establishment’s campaign to alienate everybody who doesn’t think along the same racial and socio-economic divide as they do. As the right becomes more unified, I will become more or less concerned about their faux-conservativism depending upon how much influence the religious right accumulates. At present, at least, this isn’t Bush’s republican party.
