One month into their marriage, conservatives still loving President Trump
NATIONAL HARBOR, United States — U.S. President Donald Trump will arrive as the conquering hero in a roomful of conservatives Friday, as he celebrates sky-high approval ratings among the right wing after his first month in office.
It seemed far from assured last year.
Trump, who once proposed single-payer health care, supported abortion, and who still threatens businesses that export jobs, took veiled shots during his presidential bid at rigid conservatism.
”This is called the Republican party, not the conservative party,” Trump said. Last year, his appearance at the conservative movement’s premiere annual event was controversial enough that Trump cancelled it.
