    Where are all the Trumpertarians?

    I just noticed something. The loud non stop posting Trumpertarians seemed to have disappeared all at once. Where did they all go? What will we do when all the posters with credibility stop posting here???

    It happens every election cycle. If Mitt Rommey won the election last time, there would have been Romneytarians. Don't worry, in a year or so, they will come back to their senses and start advocating for liberty again. This includes all the morons like the Rockwell crowd and the Molyneux's of the world.

    These folks have absolutely zero desire for liberty for the masses. Their concerns center around a popularity contest for their cult of personality. THAT's what they're celebrating.

    Yup, these people will now turn into apologists after he starts betraying them and they will remind us the next 4 -8 yrs that he stopped a bigger catastrophe in Clinton even as his presidency has an uncanny resemblance to the last liar in Chief.

    Can't believe I forget to mention has they would incessantly remind us that his election is going to reduce political correctness. Just like the kids who get participation trophies, they won definitely won something.

    Good question. They're probably f'n embarrassed - I know I would be. I've seen many of them openly celebrating the trump victory, and now they must be seeing the unintended consequences of their actions

    I wouldnt want to stick around to defend trump either. About all these folks can say is "at least its not hillary". Great... with such huge fkups on both sides, might as well make a republican own the failure.

    To be fair though, the guy hasn't even started. Maybe a white orb of light from the sky will strike him and he'll come around (not likely). Still, I'm convinced that if the electorate will put a man like trump in the whitehouse, absolutely anything is possible.

    Name calling is such a good way to promote discussion. /snark

    I'm not really sure what you expect people to say. Inauguration Day is Jan 20th. Trump and his transition team seem really busy. Some announcements seem pretty good. Others not so much.

    Wishful thinking... My guess is that they're just awaiting their excuses from the Ministry of Truth. Once they get their lines to repeat, they'll be back in full force. Until the next appointment.

    lol.. I guess Rand gets his excuses from the ministry of truth as well??

    lol...


    You guys have to be joking.. I mean, besides Preibus, who as far as I can tell will be ordering hotel rooms for everyone, his picks have been millions of times better than who we would have seen come in from a Hillary administration.

    That's always the argument, isn't it?

    Yet every 4 years, government continues to expand and liberty continues to shrink.

    I thought you were awake enough already to understand this?

    Liberty is not binary, it operates on a continuum.

    I would bet that liberty, on the whole, will grow during a Trump admin. I have my issues with Trump and he is far from perfect, Rand or Ron of course would be much better in regards to fighting consistently for liberty. But liberty will most certainly be at much more sustainable levels than we would have seen from a Hillary admin. And the economy will end up being a lot better off as well. We may have a crash, we may see bad times, but that is because of what has happened previously and we will all be much better off on the whole with a Trump admin.

    I actually was very hesitant about even wanting to see a Romney administration, but I knew Obama would carry us much further in the opposite direction as well. I didn't see the liberty continuum as improving or being much better either way we went. This Trump phenomenon has nothing to do with two establishment puppets dueling it out, Trump may not be totally anti-establishment but on the whole he is anti-establishment and he has shown it through his cabinet picks. I expect some establishment people will be in his cabinet for strategic purposes, and I will very likely be unhappy with some of his picks.. like if he picks that Munchkin dude, which he hasn't yet, but so far, so good.
