Byron York: Small Gov’t Conservatives Can Accept Harvey Aid Without Great Hypocrisy

EXCERPT:

YORK: "Well, there's not a huge amount of hypocrisy, especially if you look at the Houston area. Hillary Clinton beat Donald Trump in Houston by 12 points. That's not really a vote against big government. Houston is also an extremely diverse area, 44 percent Hispanic, 25 percent white, 24 percent black, 6 percent Asian. That’s not really a recipe for hating big government. And also, among philosophical conservatives, small government conservatives, a lot of them have said, along with things like national defense, dealing with natural emergencies is a legitimate function of government so the people who were small government conservatives could probably accept this aid without any great hypocrisy."
