Yeah... I don't see that ever happening. Ever. Fear will always get people votes.

It started out promising some advice and an invitation.
What it delivered was criticism, condescension, hyperbole and name-calling.
THIS WILL NOT HELP.

He seems to confuse conservative with Republican.

Treating "conservatives" as a uniform, singular movement with common goals is both incorrect and unhelpful.

This isn't an open letter to Conservatives, it's a round-up of batshitcrazy things said and done, mostly by Republican politicians, talk radio blowhards, Fox News, with a few choice highlights from conservative protesters and the really scary Texas Board of Education.
