How long will it be before a conservative is concerned with being called a hypocrite?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Right wing postmodernists never will. They're in the same scope with Nazi's and the PNF. They're not to be negotiated with because they're incapable of reason. They're to be defeated.
Unfortunately, we would love to be civilized with these people, but their way of operation requires being dragged down to their level to solve. Their only goal is overwhelming power, so our goal should just enough overwhelming power to stop them.
The modern world desperately needs government designed to deal with people operating in bad faith and being able to more easily prosecute people for bad faith politicking. We shouldn't have to sink to their level, systems should be in place to prevent this kind of horseshit getting traction to begin with, "free speech" be damned. It shouldn't be free speech to be lying, duplicitous, have an ulterior motive, gaslighting, or speaking publicly about perceived enemies with dangerous hyperbole.
I just don't want to be playing the stupid mind games with these people because it never stops. I don't want to be having to get down and dirty because they can't be negotiated with. If they can't be negotiated with, they shouldn't have a seat at the democratic table to begin with, because they obviously don't like the concept of democracy. Which of course they will accuse us of hating democracy from taking their abusive use of it away, but fuck them, they're using it abusively and controllingly, not because they want to make a better world.
When it materially affects their life in an unavoidable and painful way
Themselves, and themselves alone. Seeing other suffer certainly won't work until it hurts them personally, enough.
Summarized quite clearly with their own motto: This is the Find Out part!
Did he also vote not on the official election day? Because that's also bad, apparently.
