re: What does this board actually want in politics

You pretty much nailed the majority sentiment expressed by this board. There is some variance , no doubt, but overall correct .

It's a group of reactionaries at its core expressing crypto nihilist leanings . Lots of fun to spar with especially when it gets personal. In the end, if you want to take them seriously, they are not sure what they want. They differ to degrees on some subjects but as a whole it's hive minded and so many are united in their support of Trump.....almost as a quasi religious figure while acknowledging his faults and deviations from what they themselves want.

The insecurities of some could be be construed as pathological if it was not so funny and at times pathetic.
