Unfortunately the answer is Biden.
I’m not a typical conservative though
You should make peace with that, and accept that the real values that represent the end game of conservative politics have finally shown themselves. There is no going back.
I stand by my conservative values. Most of the conservatives that think like me are Democrats now
Correct, which is further dragging the Overton window to the right. Everything conservatism touches is tainted, and ultimately destroyed. It is a self-defeating philosophy.
I’m not going to judge by presidents I haven’t experienced first hand and I’m relatively young, so I’m going to have to go with Bush Jr
You asked me which is my favorite Republican. In my life time there have been two: GWB and DJT. You didn’t say which was my favorite president, just Republican. I chose the better of the two choices, in my opinion. Would you prefer Trump?
Or are you admitting that you asked a bad faith question? Keep in mind you didn’t ask which one I thought was good, just favorite of a subset
You are conflating conservative and Republican.
You can be a conservative without being a Republican. I don’t play party politics. Voting for (R) without looking at actual beliefs and policies is just as stupid as the “vote blue no matter who” policy.
To be completely transparent, I don’t have a favorite. The most sane one was probably Obama.
