Probably the most important aspect of the Democratic Socialist Marxists strategy to destroy the constitutional republic was destroying the faith and confidence of the American people in the nation's institutions........they have undoubtedly achieved their goal.



Those who fear the truth seek to destroy the truth tellers.

So you were lying before when you said your father is Jewish?

I’m just making sure everyone who reads this board knows you’re full of shite.

Well, I don't think that's working out for you like you think, little fella.

While Your Humble Pimpness is a widely respected man of letters (as it were) known for tongue-in-cheek insouciance, cutting analytical stylings, prescient observations, boyish handsomeness, astounding wit, deep personal board friendships and magnanimity with the opposition - you are but a surly board footnote that nobody has any opinion about one way or the other.

I’m simply America First. All the other countries trying to mold our policies, including Israel, can get fricked.

That's perfectly sensible and defensible. Maybe even wise.
This is not:

Dude, if you’re Jewish just admit it. We’ll at least understand your biases. That’s literally the only topic you seem to care about Pimpenstein.

When you finally figure out why, you'll be taken seriously.

I am well aware of where National Review Conservatism ran astray. And how it lost it's way in merging with Neoconservatism-Bush/Iraq/Romney/McCain style and how that led to the current Populism. That Populism is largely a cultural movement that has a charismatic leader-but underneath in are all the viewpoints in this thread-Me-you-SCLibertarian-Sizzle-all somehow largely FOR the same things under this completely divergent thing we call modern Conservatism.

I’m just happy to know another MAGA enthusiast such as yourself is able to make the distinction that small “l” libertarians are allies — not enemies — to the MAGA movement. I further believe that what I deem to be “traditional” conservatives such as you, 808, Timeoday, Y.A. Tittle, SouthEasternKaiju, etc… support a vision of government that I could live with — when it comes to the governance of the individual states.

I indeed believe that the only way that Liberty survives in this once great nation will be through subsidiary, nullification and even secession movements in the individual states. Yet until enough true supporters of the principles of limited government come to this inescapable conclusion, I expect the deepening crisis to continue.

The persistent presence of neoconservatism in the GOPe no matter who Americans vote for is the one divide that most undermines the possibility of a unified Right. Trump would do well to remember that neocon fatigue was the reason the MAGA movement emerged as both a viable and disruptive force in American politics.

Yet I do believe that Trump — unlike the neocons — has demonstrated he is willing to accept that we are now living in a multilateral world and that the era of the United States serving as an unquestioned global hegemon are over. I further believe that Trump’s strategic goal to lessen America’s global military footprint to focus primarily on protecting American interests in the Western Hemisphere would certainly align with Trump’s MAGA agenda and would be an agenda I can support.

Now, as I have made abundantly clear on this forum, I am totally opposed to these regime change operations because of the unforeseen blowback that inevitably follows. With that said, I believe the saber-rattling toward Venezuela is to isolate one of Russia’s few trading partners in the Western Hemisphere and thus put pressure on Putin to come to the negotiating table in the Ukrainian stalemate.

Yet fulfillment of Trump’s strategic agenda here necessarily complicates continued justification for the global military footprint of the United States. If Russia and China are verboten from operating in the Western Hemisphere, by what justification does the United have a permanent military presence in the Black Sea, the South China Sea or the Persian Gulf?

So the problem here is there are wholly corrupted and deeply embedded entities in our nation’s IC who will do anything to undermine Trump’s pursuance of such a policy agenda. Trip-wiring a larger war in Eastern Europe or the Middle East is of no concern whatsoever to these depraved interests and indeed is very likely their goal.
