1. What a wonderful list of "conservative" values
"Make Nation Safe for hate crimes." Why couldn't I think of something like that. Surely, "conservatives can use the right column for campaign slogans and posters. Their hearts would definitely be in the endeavor.

I do have one (at least one) question for "conservatives." If you all build that wall who is gonna pick the lettuce for your hamburgers? Serious question. I'm waiting for an answer.
