The flat earthers will have a field day with this one.

Don't a lot of people in his state just check a box that votes for all of the candidates in their party?

I know you are a trader, do you understand the concept of longterm vs short term gains? Who cares what the budget is this year if the result is that we arrest all of the deep state pedophiles and put them in prison? If you don't arrest and put the deep state pedophiles in prison, then they are just going to win the next election and work to make our government more communist. This is what I'm talking about with preferences. Anarchists should prefer arresting all of the deep state pedophiles to some imaginary option that doesn't exist, like lowering the deficit while the deep state pedophiles are still in power. Once they are out of power, then let's talk about how to fix this mess they created. Until then, focus primarily on removing them from power.

It is legal and proper to use a $1 billion loan guarantee from the United States government to fire a prosecutor who is investigating your son's company for corruption?? Your son who received over $3 million in payments from them to be on their board as a legal adviser?? Are you seriously that fucking insane? Really? Try explaining this to somebody who doesn't know anything about it, and record yourself, then listen back and listen to how insane you sound saying that shit. Seriously. Uh, ya, if there was a quid pro quo it would have been ok because Trump was investigating corruption, he was doing his job as President. This investigation is EXACTLY what he should have done as President. No question he did exactly what was right from a moral standpoint and a political standpoint.

Yep, that's what all these folks with TDS are going to have to learn the hard way.

Are you another autocratic, dictatorial anarchist? You think that even though I think anarchy is optimal, I cannot have a preference to live under a government with a 2% tax, compared to living under a government with a 90% tax?

I'm tired of these autocratic, dictatorial anarchists who say that other people aren't allowed to prefer a 10% income tax to a 90% income tax and still call themselves anarchists. I think anarchy is the only truly moral system of government. I also think that a 90% income tax is more immoral than a 10% income tax, therefore I prefer a 10% income tax to a 90% income tax even though it is still sub-optimal. I prefer weed being legal to weed being illegal, even if other drugs are still illegal (they should all be legal). The more the government lets us keep our money, the more freedoms we enjoy, the better. That is my opinion.

Yes, I am. An anarchist is allowed to have preferences outside of anarchy. An anarchist is ALLOWED to prefer minarchy to communism. I would argue that all anarchists should prefer minarchy to communism, but I will leave it up to the individual anarchists.. which is part of what makes me more of an anarchist than you. You apparently think all anarchists should be the same and think the same or they aren't anarchists. That is ludicrous.

Unrelated, but shows credibility: Probably funny and good for those with leftist media aggrevated TDS:

If you are insist on being indoctrinated by leftists, at least listen to Jimmy Dore..

Uh, no that's a horrible argument. The guy who was negotiating with Ukraine asked what the President wanted, he said he didn't want anything, there was no quid pro quo. The other guy and some other people imagined it was there, but it never existed, and there is no proof it exists. In fact there is proof it didn't exist because what allegedly was wanted, the quid, was never delivered, but the aid, the quo was delivered. Trump blew a .00 BAC from the beginning, to the end. You also apparently didn't read the rest of my post, I highly recommend going back and reviewing it. I said even if he did do what the Democrats accuse him of, if there was a quid pro quo, there is NOTHING wrong with that, at all, and I explain why. You are just proving more and more how badly TDS affects the ability to think clearly.

Fortunately we won't need complicated mathematical proofs for long, because when the arrests start happening there won't be any more talk of Q. It will all be about how Trump is a madman and an authoritarian for putting all of his political opponents in prison. Fortunately it will come out that most of the people he is imprisoning are Satanic pedophiles. But the media cabal will not report it, they will continue to say it is a conspiracy theory. There will be trolls here, repeating those lies. I can tell you who they are and it hasn't even happened yet.

Wow, you have really been propagandized hard by the left on this issue. I'm an anarchist too, but I can see the deep state, which wants power more than anybody.. is the enemy to Trump, and Trump is trying to ruin their whole parade like a bull in a china shop. First rule of anarchy club. Don't stop the bull in the china shop, when the china shop is the government. Second of all.. YES.. The President SHOULD have asked the Ukraine to investigate corruption that occurred in Ukraine. 100% without question. The President has authority to do so under this treaty signed by Bill Clinton: It doesn't matter if the person in question is a political candidate, in fact, it is even MORE important to investigate some Joe running for President than it is to investigate some average Joe... why the hell are you just running with these talking points without thinking them through?? Especially considering Joe Biden hasn't won yet. They haven't had the primaries yet. This is the time to vet Joe Biden, before he is the Democrat candidate.

What a bunch of horse shit, you are buying it are you presence? Have you seen this video? This is what triggered Trump to investigate Biden.. Biden admits on video to getting a Ukrainian prosecutor fired by threatening to withhold a $1 billion loan. Turns out the prosecutor was investigating his son Hunter Biden's natural gas company Burisma for corruption. Hunter received over $3 million in payments from Burisma.

Trump doesn't want the public to know what he is doing militarily. He talks about bringing troops home but sends more. He ordered the military to stop reporting casualty figures including for civilians in war zones. He turned the drone program over to the CIA so they would not have to report what they do or to ask for permission to attack a given target. Not surprisingly, drone attacks surged. We will be out of Afghanistan "soon". We will be out of Syria in 30 days (that was a year ago).

Noting that about a quarter of net farm income was from government subsidies.

This was announced in October. Nothing new. https://finabel.org/defender-europe-20-an-exercise-in-interoperability/ Military exercises in Europe happen regularly.

Even allowing for the costs a president has, another important factor is that the trips were to his own properties- where the government including security detail paid for space and food and entertainment at Trump businesses which netted him profits. He has traveled considerably more than any other president despite claiming that he would never have time to even leave the White House or to play golf because he would be too busy working for the American People. He criticized Obama for how often he played golf. 139027652873953281

Let's look from the time he was first elected to Congress in 1976. In November of that year (when the election would have taken place) gold was $600 an ounce. As of this moment, it is worth just under $1500 an ounce- a 40% gain in 43 years. There weren't any mining stock indexes back then so I can't really trace how well those have done since then. Gold price link: https://www.macrotrends.net/1333/historical-gold-prices-100-year-chart What about stocks? Let's us a broad index- the S&P 500. In November, 1976, it was 100. Today, it is 3,133- an increase of 3,100%. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/%5EGSPC?p=%5EGSPC Metals don't pay any dividends which could be re-invested like stocks do so the return on stocks would be even higher if those were included.

Every little bit helps. I'm always glad to see some concrete solutions on RPF. I'd like to see more. If it weren't for people pushing back, then things would be a lot worse. That old saying is really true: The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

What about Rick Moranis??!

Talking shit on Rand, eh?? Well that's exactly WHY Trump said 10 to 15 times. He exaggerates, but he always exaggerates in the correct direction. It gets the fake news talking about what Trump wants to talk about, even if it is them attempting to correct him on something. I guess they haven't figured that out yet.

Another one that could be really good.. Bill and Ted: Face the Music

Liberty comes from within. Consider it a kickstart. Those who dismiss it most likely will never know it.
