But it`s not me. Personality cults aren`t conservative. Conspiracy theories aren`t conservative. Lying that an election has been stolen, it`s not conservative. Acting like politics is a religion, it isn`t conservative. Let`s be clear about why this is happening. It`s because I still believe, as you used to, that politics isn`t about the weird worship of one dude.
Senator Sasse criticizes the personality cult surrounding politics and emphasizes that true conservatism does not align with conspiracy theories or the worship of individuals.

The United States now regularly sells out our allies under his leadership, the way he treats women and spends like a drunken sailor. He mocks evangelicals behind closed doors, as his family has treated the presidency like a business opportunity. He flirted with white supremacists. I don't think the way he has led through COVID has been reasonable or responsible or right.
The heart of America is not government. The center of America is the neighborhoods where 330 million Americans are raising their kids.
