It's super-virtuous to be a moderate

Libertarians are political bisexuals
Substitute moderates and it still works

These days, it's mostly about Dirty vs. Clean. I want a clean, streamlined government. I mean, what is Right vs. Left about these issues:
1) Elimination of governmental waste and fraud
2) Having secure borders
3) Having Free & FAIR Trade
4) Having a strong energy program
5) Keeping Biologically-born men out of women's sports
Etc. Etc.
Seems a lot more like common sense than ideology to me, and I think that's why the term "80/20 issue" is being used a lot today. There's nothing inherently "magical" about being known as a moderate. Imo, the key is doing what's right, and being honest and clean.
Maybe we will get there one day.

That’s the media narrative, not real life.

None of this is true.

There isn't. And there isn't room for one right now.
Pick a side or sit and shut it. No offense intended, just a phrase.

Have you heard of Donald Trump?

The democratic norms that have us 30 trillion dollars in debt, while spending billions around the world to prop up socialist, Islamist, hedonist, sodomist, and imperialist ideals?

rejecting institutions,
Institutions such as importing millions of uneducated violent illegals, and bestowing upon them not only thousands of taxpayer dollars, healthcare, education, housing, food and clothing, but also the rights and privileges of actual American citizens?

For free speech? If you are in this country illegally, you are a criminal. If you came here on a visa in order to get an education, fomenting dysfunction and strife is not part of that education.
What’s so hard right about using the Constitution and a little common sense?

You only think Trump is “hard right” since the democrats went off the charts full commie.

“I voted for Trump, but…”
Any vote in this UniParty® charade is a vote for the left or the right wing of the Deep State. The very best outcome we can hope for is some populist pushback against the reigning political establishment in the Potomac Beltway.
Such populism is going to arise from the Bernie Bro left or the MAGA right. Choose accordingly because it is what it is.

wrong
90's democrats were still for open borders and fake free trade and not for cutting corporate and ordinary tax rates. they also were for abortion and gun bans. and were not for conservative scotus judges. trump is opposite all that
nice try tho.

Think back to a happier time, like in 2017 through 2019. No new wars, booming economy, low unemployment, low interest rate loans, then, boom!
We get Biden through fraud, and in four years they have destroyed the US and would keep destroying everything until the society breaks down and they clamp down with the rule of law, or edict, or...force.
I want it to get turned around. Every company that has faced the edge of ruin and come back has had to make tough decisions. That's where we are. Trump is not kicking the can down the road that the uniparty swamp has been all too happy to kick down the road. Well, the day has come. It is sorely needed. There will be sacrifices.
Get some backbone, man.

There is no comparison and the only people who try to make it are weaker leftists who don't admit that is what they are.

Ok dude, right right in this country is not too far right at all.
It's the left that went full retard. They want chicks with dicks, upset when you deport known gang members, to try to transition kids in elementary school.
