Why Donald Trump’s Continued Political Career is a Waste of Resources for the Conservative Movement

Donald Trump’s continued political career is a waste of resources for the conservative movement, Republican Party, and American Right. This detracts from important causes and issues that matter to ordinary Americans. Political energy, time, and money are finite resources, and there are only so many hours in a day to devote to politics. Polarizing causes and leaders can expand these resources, but only marginally. Donald Trump has wasted vast amounts of energy on personal feuds, scandals, and pointless lies. This has been a distraction from important issues, and has alienated potential voters. Trump’s legal cases are another waste of resources for the Republican Party and conservatives. He will have to spend time and money defending himself, which could have been used for party-building and elections. Trump is also divisive within the Republican Party and conservative movement, causing unnecessary anger and infighting. While it is true that every leader will waste some resources, Trump’s baggage never goes away, and his diehard supporters will always be a distraction. There are far more important issues to focus on than Trump’s personal interests and feuds. The men who signed the Declaration of Independence pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor to the formation of a great nation and the defense of God-given rights. It is time to move on from Trump and focus on the issues that matter to Americans.
