The problem is that you can't pick and choose. If you want limited federal government you have to protest just as loudly against Common Core (federal involvement in education), gun control, environmental action, etc. And the same applies with regards to executive overreach - re: border control and immigration policy.

I think you may be surprised to realize that many conservatives (obviously it depends who we're talking about) will gladly ally with you to prevent both of these, but unfortunately no one on the left was willing to do anything as long as they held the reins of power. I only hope that now that Republicans are in charge, conservatives will not get too giddy with power (and I think there is hope).

Limited government and constitutionalism are the only way to ensure an even balance, and prevent the other 51% (give or take) of the country from forcing their views down your throat.
