Of course I wouldn't.
Why would I want that?
Checks and balances are a thing of the past, friend, thanks to unopposed and undefended from, invading migrant hordes.Or would you prefer to maintain some checks and balances?
The future is unchecked and unbalanced uni-party Bolshevism, California on a nationwide scale, driven by foreign born migrant voters and in toto domestic ethnic voting blocs.
$#@! it all, might as well get what I can, while the getting's good.

There is a time for peace and a time for war.
There is also a time for checks and balances and a time for decisive leadership.
I believe that we have always had too many checks and balances and that they enabled what I call the corruption ratchet but we do want some when we get back to where we need to go.

"[D]ecisive leadership"? Right. Nothing promotes true freedom like an authoritarian strong man of the type often favored by banana republics around the globe.
"[T]oo many checks and balances"? Clearly the state has not been given free enough rein over the last 2+ centuries to insure the maintainance and expansion of real liberty.

In the past there would have been so many people ruthlessly excoriating such authoritarian tripe that the poster would hesitate to even show his face around here again without a serious adjustment in attitude and beliefs. Now? I'm guessing it will pass with little comment. The poster is tipping his hand, once again, for all to see.

"You cannot deduct reputation from the same post twice."
I should be glad you're not hiding your fascism, but it's sad that this place is a fertile ground for you freaks.
Reputation beyond fuсking repute. Maybe we who believe in limited government are the ones who don't belong here; either way, the minarchist, anarchists, and classical liberals left here have obviously less and less in common with the Trumparchists.

Decisive leadership will be required to restore the republic.
It took Andy Jackson to kill the National Bank and it will take that kind of decisive leader to kill the Fed or bring the troops home or any of the other things we need done.
It's not the checks on government power vs. the citizens that are the problem, it's the internal checks and balances that allow corruption but prevent reform while allowing all involved to avoid responsibility.

Hmmm....so Republicans sought to impeach Truman, Clinton and Obama. Basically every democratic president since FDR with the exception of Jimmy Carter. But they tried to impeach Carter's U.N. Ambassador Andrew Young because he *gasp* was sympathetic to the Palestinians. There have been more attempts to impeach Republican presidents....because there have been more Republican presidents.

Got neg repped at this post:
Kind of hard to answer, since I've been fairly consistent over the years: I have always been in favor of tariffs, of an "America First" policy in all things fedgov, and limited immigration.What has happened to you man?
I was, before fully getting behind Ron Paul, politically, for over twelve years now, a Pat Buchanan type of guy.
So I don't think any positions or opinions I post are radically different than what I have been saying for thirty years or more now.
I will admit my focus on what issues I find to be of primary importance has changed quite a bit over the last few years, as it has become quite clear that another front in the war on me has opened.
My response to Zip is slightly specious and tongue-in-cheek.
But I am not kidding about this:
I mean that in all sincerity, and I will do whatever little bit is in my power to make sure that my children do not lose their legacy.The future is unchecked and unbalanced uni-party Bolshevism, California on a nationwide scale, driven by foreign born migrant voters and in toto domestic ethnic voting blocs.

At some point you have to admit that the enemy has thrown the rulebook out the window and that we are in a kind of war.
If you keep following the rulebook down to the fine print you will be destroyed.
If you win well enough to force the other side to play by the rules again you can go back to playing by them too. (but you may want to adjust them since they got you to the point the enemy could ignore them)

I didn't neg you for supporting tariffs and a secure border. Reasonable people support tariffs; reasonable people support border security. I negged you for the unreasonable things you don't seem to have been consistent about.
That's not what 2012 AF sounded like

Remember when we said, "Nothing can save the country but the principles that built it"? Now we seem to leave off after, "Nothing can save the country."
Is that a reason to forget the principles that built it? If we do, I shudder to think what sort of ugly monster rises from the ashes.

Well, there's quite a club that seems to be growing around that concept. We'll need a name for that political philosophy, though.
You can say that it was tongue-in-cheek, but it fits in so well with what you've been saying of late that I tend to think that it was more serious than sarcastic.
I realize that Nixon chose Ford because the one thing Ford excelled at was keeping his nose clean. And he wasn't in the office long enough to do much of anything, or have any long processes played out against him.
Besides, I remember the American public making it quite clear that pardoning Nixon was unpardonable. That's why Reagan came closer than anyone else ever to beating a sitting GOP president in the primaries. If Republicans were a little less concerned with being authority-worshipping good little team players, and a little more concerned with having a lick if sense, they'd have nominated Reagan in 1976.
But it's still quite ironic the only GOP president the Democrats made no effort to remove was the only one who was never democratically elected.
The "I like tyranny as long as I like the tyrant" movement.
Charismacism?
