Where Have All The Conservatives Gone?

Where have all the young men gone, long time ago?

Where have all the young men gone?

Gone to soldier, every one!

When will they ever learn, when will they ever learn?"

                                       Good Day World!

Where have all the conservatives gone, long time passing?
Where have all the conservatives gone, long time ago?
Where have all the conservatives gone?
Gone to the alt right, every one.

You get the idea.

The Republican party has been ransacked and crushed by Donald Trump and the alt right crowd. It's been a epic smackdown for real conservatives who still aren't quite sure what happened.

Somehow it's become okay for reactionary racial politics and counter-establishment right-wing ideas, fitting snugly into the violent world of white supremacist terrorists. 

As the alt-right has grown in the last several years, so have the conferences and organizations that make up its foundations.

American Renaissance began in 1990 in an attempt to popularize many of the pseudo-scientific racist ideas promoted by a few contremporary rogue scientists.

By now it's obvious to Republicans that their nominee for president is a nut case brought to prominance by the alt-right, whose philosophy fits nicely into Trump's stump speeches.

The real conservatives in the party are panicking. They don't want to vote for Trump, but they sure don't want to vote for Clinton.

Some are turning to Libertarian Gary Johnson. Most are frozen with indecision; "should they vote for someone, or don't bother voting at all?"

Conservatives are deserting the Republican party in droves. Where they're going is anyones guess.
