What’s new is the division over whether or not you stick to your principles as an isolationist conservative, or your loyalty to an inconstant Trump. It’s an internal problem with MAGA.
The neocons never stopped being neocons. They just LARP'd to be part of the cool kids club after 2016 because they're groupies at heart.

Y'all have endorsements from Bolton, Pence, Graham and Haley. Y'all aren’t RINOS, you’re neocons.
And you have the endorsement of the people who literally rape their own children to virtue signal. Congrats?

you think making America greater means voting for the status quo
Yea not at all. I disagree with Trump on plenty but unlike you, and your idol Massie, I am not constantly trying to be a contrarian. Even the other great Libertarian hero Ron Paul doesn't go against the grain as often as Massie so why is Massie doing it? Is he truly principled, or does he just like being a contrarian?

Yep, literally the worst people in the world are supporting this Iran action.

Clearly it's a big issue for many
Like me with spending/ the deficit.
If Trump is a big spending neocon doing globalist things, them how is he not a RINO as well?

And this here is the real root of it. Libertarians are angry to find out they are not in fact republicans
Libertarians, are not conservative in ideology. There is overlap (fiscal austerity), but there is fundamental disagreement on the role of the state in conservative and libertarian beliefs. It’s why libertarians are known as classic liberalism

This is true. There are many in both parties too.

Some of them are new to the Necon game and only because they can never criticize Trump
I am as much of a supporter Tof rump as many, but you have to take a step back and call out the mistakes from time to time
FWIW, I am still processing the bombing and if it is a smart "peace through strength" action or not. Time will tell on that but every president this century has kicked the Iran can down the road.

Bunk, you've fought a good fight on here, and you know your history, and your insight is beautiful
God bless you
I hope you're staying here to keep fighting these fricking douchebags
(and yes, I'm the guy who uses the F word while also quoting scripture)

Massie is nothing more than an attention whore. He is what he is a do nothing libertarian. Nobody outside of his district voted for him yet he thinks he runs the house. 
Posted on 6/23/25 at 8:12 am to prouddawg
Well . . . in this case, they are all on the side of right. Trump said no nukes for Iran, and he meant it. What part of that is hard to understand?
Posted on 6/23/25 at 8:13 am to HVAU
using the word "isolationist" means you don't know what you're talking about
most people on here using that term only learned the term two months ago

How Iran and Israel respond is going to be crucial
People are saying for instance that they do not support boots on the ground. I guarantee you there are responses by Iran or its proxies that would make them go back on this red line and justify boots on the ground
From a very big conceptual point of view the discussion is about the temporal status of the bombings. I see it as the beginning of something new and they see it as the end of a long-term saga

You do realize that one of the main reasons many Trump supporters are Trump supporters is that we rejected Haley, Graham, Jeb(!), Pence, Bolton Foreign Policy - precisely bc it prioritized other countries over our own. These assholes basically became Democrats who bombed shite.
This desire for endless warmongering swallowed whole EVERY ISSUE. It’s all they’re fricking worried about.
I’m a hard NO about returning to the GOP of old.

Yep. I took a step back and the position is still correct, still justified and still exactly the position that Trump has taken all along.
