## Resource

I’m tired of the conservative movement’s double game. I’ve had enough of Con Inc.’s white-pilling and distractions while refusing to confront the problem with Trump and Republicans so that we can finally build a real movement to actually redress their own supposed grievances. Republicans often celebrate headline-grabbing moments while overlooking policy decisions that move the country in the opposite direction from what was promised on the campaign trail. Con Inc. focus on symbolic battles while failing to hold Republican leadership accountable on issues ranging from vaccines and immigration to spending, technology policy, federal power, and state politics. Focusing on a dozen issues, I demonstrate why we need to finally come clean about Trump’s true motivations and outcomes so that we can rebuild. We must shift our attention away from personality politics and toward state legislatures, primary elections, and issue-based activism. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
