The current state of conservatism is bleak. With Donald Trump dragging the GOP into an abyss bearing the lowest approval numbers a president has had in any first year, a series of racist attacks in the name of conservatism, and cable news going the way of MSNBC, there appears to be a political natural disaster ready to take a final blow at the Republicans; and it's Typhoon Trump.
