Patriot american Ron Paul Does not trust Trump.

let me guess you’re a libertarian who thinks you’re better than liberals and conservatives on the virtue of your being libertarian? Libertarians are paranoid delusions whom are the last people to realize their ideas are shit, and they’re not so virtuous because they’re libertarians.

I'm a libertarian. And I'll put my ideas up against yours on this board any day of the week. Any day. Hopefully in front of all of your friends. That's my preference anyway. Heck, I'd enjoy nothing more than for you to show us all how smart you are.


I often think in & agree w/libertarian terms , yet bow to the security of collectivism

maybe i'm just another scared rabbit.....

You can actually have both.

A true libertarian has nothing against collectivism. It is the essential premise on which this nation was founded on.

It is FORCED collectivism (by the STATE, that is what we are discussing here) that is the problem. VOLUNTARY collectivism is strong, and very effective, this needs no forcing. Let individuals and collectives compete in the market WITHOUT the interference of the STATE.

Never get caught up in the Democrats and Republicans false dilemma that we cannot have both.
 
A libertarian’s answer for everything is less government and more freedom. Ron Paul wasn’t right about much if anything. There were only degrees to which I every agreed with him, when I did. To me he’s as bad as Bernie Sanders.
My take there is....I have equal respect for both of them for being honest and sticking to their guns even though it ruffled feathers in their own parties.
I can’t even say I respect them for being principled. Bernie Sanders became a millionaire after his run for President and defended it by evoking capitalism. Ron Paul was the king of pork barrel spending. Bernie Sanders doesn’t have plausible ideas, and neither did Ron Paul. If either of those guys had gotten their way the country and the world would go to shit. They were successful in spreading ideologies that are incompatible with real life.

Out of curiosity what plausible ideas has Trump personally implemented by his own accord, except maybe the wall ?

number one, don’t assume Im the biggest Trump supporter, I’m not. I’d take him over the democrat field, but that’s the lesser of 2 evils strategy. Trump has implemented certain things, he hasn’t gotten that much done in comparison to others because he and congress haven’t been able able to work together, but they’re about to do something big now. Let’s see if it works. I can’t imagine if someone like Ron Paul was president at this time. Bernie would cripple us too.

the last thing I’ll say about this is they are both two sides of the same coin pitching their respective utopian fantasy

Well when it comes down to it, the president is our closest thing to being the public's representative, however, even Obama was smart enough to quote Frederick Douglas' famous saying about power.
It was his way of saying, look guys," I had no idea what I was getting into here. "

Trump can work for us as a populist president (he's already left of the Democrats on almost everything ) and actually keep us all happy, if we all get his back. Can't do it divided in half the way they keep us...Don't forget the GOP will likely keep the Senate but could flip the House also, so who knows how things will fall in place then if Trump's reelected of course.

Confidence and trust are the same right? If someone doesnt want you to feel confidence all they need to do is kick out the trust. Weaken you right up.
