To say that the Democrat Party has evolved is an understatement. The party has been absorbed by socialists that giggle at the idea of the United States being no more.

The change within the party has been so radical that some of their own have left it to join Republicans across the aisle. This should be a good thing, right?

Mesha Mainor from Georgia is among those Democrats who switched to the Republican Party due to her former party’s extreme views.

Recently, Republicans have been put in a position where they can win over the average American because the Republican Party isn’t adamant about “transing” the kids. The Republican Party has quickly become the sanest political party, causing some Democrat lawmakers to make the switch.

Republicans have been in an uphill battle to become relatable and approachable to the average American. The Left has worked hard to tarnish the reputation of Republicans and what the party stands for, and this has caused Republicans to do almost anything to just be liked and included. Republicans and conservatives alike tend to quickly embrace anyone who for a moment endorses a popular conservative talking point.

Although it is important to win over as many to the conservative side as possible, should Republicans accept everyone who claims to now be conservative?

The answer may not be clear to many, but it must be discussed. When it comes to issues that conservatives deeply care about, like abortion, can we count on lawmakers like Mesha Mainor to vote pro-life?

When it comes to the presidency, can we count on Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who seems to hold some conservative views, to protect the life of the unborn? We cannot. LifeNews recently published a quote where Kennedy states, “The only thing I can say to you on that issue is that I’m pro-choice.”

This should come as a surprise to no one, yet some conservatives are open to a Donald Trump-RFK ticket. The moral issue of abortion is a sacred issue to the conservative movement; however, with the wide acceptance of former liberals now turned conservatives, the conservative party may not be unified when it comes to abortion anymore.

It is OK for a voter or a lawmaker to change their political views, and they should be embraced by the party they are now identifying with. This does not mean that the party (conservative party specifically) needs to become loose on its core issues. If the Republican Party can become loose on the moral issue of abortion, the party can become loose on every other issue.

It is not wrong for the Republican Party to be firm on its platform, and it is OK to expect newcomers to agree and support the Republican platform. If the party cannot do that, it will continue to have the problem of lawmakers who are Republicans in name only (RINOs).
