    When was the last time there was a conservative president in the US who didn’t cause tremendous lasting damage to the country?

      Eisenhower(?) at the very least id say any damage he may have done was at least somewhat offset by good done. But he was still very much part of the new deal era so he is moreso the exception, besides him im pulling blanks both before and after.

      Depends on your definitions. You could even say Lincoln (conservative or not) caused lasting damage through failing to prevent a civil war and then getting assassinated before finishing the affairs

        Every time someone blames Lincoln for the Civil War, James Buchanan edges to completion in heaven

        Without looking up the answer, tell me approximately how long Lincoln was president before the Civil War started.

          Like less than a year? (Looked it up, a month! huh) I’m not seriously accusing Lincoln of anything though, I’m saying that JoeCoT’s question doesn’t have much value.
