I mean I have been saying for 25 years that most US conservatives fundamentally do not believe in democracy. I know because I was raised as one.

So have others said this, such as arch neocon David Frum:

Maybe you do not care much about the future of the Republican Party. You should. Conservatives will always be with us. If conservatives become convinced that they can not win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. The will reject democracy.
