I’m new to Lemmy, and trying to get a gauge on the community. Unfortunately, it seems that it’s just gonna be another heavily left wing website, but hoping that the smaller pockets of users will be reasonable.

What are the issues that the Conservative community here cars about most?

    I agree, I’m an accountant now, and very fiscally conservative.

    In my lifetime the most fiscally conservative president we’ve had is clinton. Bush and Obama spent trillions on a useless war in the middle east. Trump spent absurd amounts as well, and it’s arguable how much was necessary due to covid restrictions.

    But the one thing I absolutely value is less military intervention. Trump, whether it’s due to him or not, didn’t get us involved in anymore military conflicts.

      Trump managed to bankrupt several casinos that he owned. He couldn’t manage a dollar if someone rolled it up and pointed him to a line of coke.

        He also ran 100 successful companies, is one of the most famous men in the world and was synonymous with the ‘New york big shot’ culture that we valued highly for 30 years.

        Whether you like it or not, he’s had much much much much more financial and social success in his life than you could ever imagine for yours.

          Oh yes, you can rest assured I strive to emulate the trump. You’ve never actually seen what he did to NY and NJ during the late 80s and 90s right? He doesn’t know how to run a business, much less a country.
