How about Steve Schmidt?
Definitely not a Conservative, considering he is a Schwartzenegger and McCain guy. That big-government/globalist wing of the party is one of the issues that caused me to stop affiliating as Republican. So, to answer your question, not a fan.
So your definition of a Conservative now is what "someone who doesnt bad mouth the President"?
I would expect a Conservative to get behind the Party representative, even if he/she doesn't completely agree with him.

Yikes. Blind faith and devotion devoid of thought is not what I look for in a politician.

So, if the DNC were to nominate Burnie, you would vote for him just because?

That is two completely different topics. I'd say "nice try" but it wasn't.

Remember when we had a president like this, who some here went nuts over because he wore mom jeans?
Here he was after Sandy Hook.

Well...guess what? I'm a conservative and I want to kick him in his frontbutt.

I would argue that there's a difference between being frustrated with the representative and actively seeking to undermine him.

Fine.

But at this very moment, HE'S undermining everything conservatives believe, including (and most especially) his own agenda.

At this point, does he even have an agenda? The CDC fiasco would indicate that he's so completely lost that his only agenda is flailing on TV.

Are Republicans talking about trying to get him to resign yet?

His agenda is to stay in power as long as possible.

What if that representative is actively undermining conservative principles in this country? Still support him just because (R) or ......?

That's the problem. there is no option B. Political distancing to go along with the social distancing is all there is.

His agenda is to stay in power as long as possible.
His agenda is same as it ever was, to see his own face and hear his own voice on TV as much as possible.

To bask in the self assuring glow of his cult rallies.

To reduce otherwise formerly self respecting "conservatives" to self loathing bootlicking sycophants.

The agenda is currently bigly successful!
