Deceptive tactics

It is about time that the public learned the truth about a phrase that is very often used by today’s “conservatives.” That phrase is “limited-government conservative.” To me, those are the three most frightening words in the English language. You might have noticed recently that some conservatives feel very badly because, as they have said, President Donald Trump is not a “limited-government conservative” (as they are). That happens to be true. That phrase is actually a buzzword and codeword that really means that the person does not believe that the federal government should spend one cent on social programs that are intended to help people. Their ultimate goal is to one day see that all of them are abolished/eliminated from existence especially Social Security, which they hate the most. Now, they do realize that most Americans do not agree with them (as well as some of their fellow conservatives) so they use what are called “stealth” (deceptive) tactics, which include not telling the American people what they really believe and want. They know this.
