The two appeared together at the Gun Owners of America GOALS 2026 event in Des Moines on August 1-2, a conference centered on Second Amendment issues.

Critics among conservatives accused Flynn of countering Trump and MAGA messaging, with one supporter ending years of backing and labeling him a grifter.

Flynn's son responded with a smile, noting the backlash had made 'Flynn' trend as MAGA critics reacted strongly. Supporters saw it as a routine meeting of gun-rights advocates, while detractors viewed it as a sign of fracturing alliances ahead of midterms.

The only betrayal was Trump to his supporters with more endless ME wars, no mass deportations, no stopping H1Bs and illegal farm workers, no arrests of any of the deep state criminals, stagnant economy with high inflation, no spending cuts to reduce deficit, and he has all but abandoned his trade policies to get better trade deals.

Why does he deserve loyalty? He has done exactly zero in his 2nd term to earn it. We are loyal to an idea, a movement. Not a man.

Pretty strong,D. We all believe Trump only delays the above until he has the power in DC to make it stick, but nowadays who can trust anything.

I remain convinced that such lofty goals cannot be had under the current system. Albeit a System which is being challenged by the Left’s “fundamental change “, via a Democratic unverified vote. The corrupt Judiciary would have to be trashed for any of your reform points to be had.

Just like over in Iran, Trump knows what will be required in blood for real change, here or there, and I don’t think he wants that on his record. Or in his “Book of Life” judgment criteria when facing the Good Lord into the next life. Who amongst us would?

Does MTG think people care what she says lol?

I’m serious. I hope she realizes we sit here and just laugh at her. She doesn’t understand what she’s viewed as and that’s concerning.

Flynn is unelectable, Massie chose his path.

No matter who the face is with an R be side it, there will always be a battle.

GWB I is forever remembered for his reversal on his ‘no new taxes’ pledge. Trump has reversed on almost every single policy.

True on some of it particularly spending cuts and lasting trade deals. He needs Congress for those. But after the Supreme Court ruling on tariffs it’s like he gave up when he still has options to leverage trade.

However Congress gave him funding for ICE. No excuse for low volume deportations, he has the money and the authority. Courts have sided with him. He got weak knees after the bad press in Minnesota.

Iran is also fully on Trump.

Not addressing H1Bs and not reporting illegal ag workers is on Trump. His admin has the authority here.

His DOJ can make arrests of deep state criminals. They choose not to pursue most of it.

I just don’t think Trump has the fight in him that he had in 2016. Maybe it’s old age. But I think Vance or Desantis would fight harder and get things done. Say what you want about about RDS, but he does all of the things in Florida that I want on the national level

Too bad the fatass MTG wasn't included. That would've made it perfect.

Flynn, like Massie, (and Ron) will never be President.

Ever. Why do people insist on this stuff? Just like Massie’s girlfriend Ro will never be President.

The only cult I see are democrats cheering these antisemitic lunatics on; and any meeting with Massie, Joe Kent, Flynns, MTG, Candace, Whose 5th generation warfare has been to make MAGA dead.

Bannon and Poso should come out fully any day. Meg Kelly will straddle the fence awhile.

Ask yourself how making MAGA dead is conducive to anything. Other then severe once covert TDS posers?
