'''Conservative Inc.''' (also abbreviated as "Con Inc.") is a pejorative term used to describe the coalition of [[mainstream conservative]]s, [[RINOs]]/[[neoconservative]]s, [[token conservative]]s, [[Establishment]] [[Republicans]], organizations, PACs, etc., who try to claim leadership of the [[conservative]] movement. Members of Conservative Inc. market themselves as authentically conservative to the public (usually during election years), yet are hold widely [[liberal]] positions and agendas, and hinder the agenda of true conservatism. The billionaire, mega-donor financiers of Conservative Inc. (which include the [[Koch Brothers]] and [[George Soros]]) monopolize the movement without disclosing their agenda, which includes [[open borders]] and [[globalism]]. They also consistently fail to defend [[movement conservatives]] in the face of [[left-wing]] attacks.<ref>Kozak, Edmund (May 14, 2019).

Conservative Inc. misleads [[Republican]]s into spending campaign dollars on expensive consultants and television ads, when the money would be better spend on a ground game.  When there are very few undecided voters, as in the [[United States presidential election, 2020]], the ground game and not consultants matter more.

Conservative Inc. is dominated by people who think that conservative politics is a way to make money, rather than a place to volunteer for the betterment of others.  The Conservative Inc. "leaders" are often very hostile towards grassroots activists, particularly if they might upset the flow of money to those profiting from it.

Part of the game plan of Conservative Inc. is to try to marginalize and demonize critics, in an improper attempt to [[monopoly|monopolize]] the right side of the political spectrum.  An example of this a half-century ago was when [[William F. Buckley]] participated in the smear of the [[John Birch Society]] in reaction to the success by the group in pulling conservative supporters away from Buckley.

The [[Fox News Channel]] – a money-making scheme by faux conservatives who pander to elderly [[Republicans]] while profiting from them – is a prime example of Conservative Inc.

Conservative Inc. largely opposed [[President Trump]] during the beginning of his 2016 campaign, but would later embrace him, likely due to the realization of just how big the market is in Trump supporters, and how little money there is in an anti-Trump base amongst the conservative populace, despite still being [[Never Trumper]]s at heart, and oft holding antithetical views to Trump. These are grifters, who use the MAGA movement for their own personal gain, despite doing nothing in return for them, and often secretly holding contempt for them. Two examples of these are Senator [[Lindsey Graham]] and political commentator [[Ben Shapiro]], both of whom were strongly against Trump in 2016, only to later support him and endorse him in 2020.  

Conservative Inc. spokesmen tend to be pro-[[Koch]] agenda and [[anti-Trump]].

The [[Fox News Channel]] – a corporate money-making scheme by faux conservatives who pander to elderly [[Republicans]] while profiting from them – is a prime example of Conservative Inc. Other Con Inc. organizations include [[Turning point usa]], [[PragerU]], and [[The Daily Wire]].

During the three presidential campaigns of [[Pat Buchanan]], Conservative Inc. smeared him and put him down, while propping up their own candidates, such as [[George H. W. Bush]], [[Bob Dole]] and [[George W. Bush]].
