The only thing conservative I’ve seen out of this administration is lack of abortion, and removing LGBT rights, everything else is authoritarian which is not conservative.
As a side note conservatives tend to make room for the libertarian right, that room is now gone.
The libertarian party was literally created by billionaires to advocate for their preferred tax policy without leding people who wanted legal weed or gay marriage. It’s a nonsense ideology
Libertarianism has a left to right bent. I know the popular meme is libertarians are just conservatives that want to smoke weed but there really is a libertarian right.
The right has always preferred the rule of the few over the many, ever since the days of colonial America and the Loyalists. First, the rule of the King of England. Then, opposing slaves’ rights. Then, opposing women’s suffrage. It has pretty much always been their opinion that the powerless are powerless because they deserve it.

My gun rights opinions tend to turn off the progressives in my circle, yet I tend to be more left than most of them.
