Great post...
Wake up libertarians and realize that Trumpism is the New Reagan Conservatism....it was never about libertarianism. Libertarians shit themselves when pointing out that Reagan said the heart of his own philosophy, and the heart of conservatism, is libertarianism. But they will never show the truth that Reagan’s actual record in office must be contrasted with his rhetoric. Libertarians simply don’t like that record, as federal spending, government employment, regulations, and the deficit, all increased dramatically during the 1980s. After mentioning Reagan’s quote on libertarianism....do libertarians ever point out Reagan’s actions in office contradicted all aspects of libertarianism? Hell, NO! Libertarians won’t...but I damned sure will.
(D)onald Trump got elected with 4 words: YOU'D BE IN JAIL He lied. To make things worse - He's a draft dodging PUSSY with a Napoleon complex who won't be the one shedding blood to prop his little man self-esteem up as Putin continues to hand (D)onny Bone Spur his disinformed, head stuffed, Bolshe-Zionist appeasing arse.

You just don't understand sophisticated people skills and dynamics of political words. That's not OUR fault you are failing to understand the Big Picture, the powerful forces involved, or..."get it". To make things worse - He's a draft dodging PUSSY with a Napoleon complex who won't be the one shedding blood to prop his little man self-esteem up as Putin continues to hand (D)onny Bone Spur his disinformed, head stuffed, Bolshe-Zionist appeasing arse. So you... a) Oppose Israel and "Joos"...and support the Muzzie fake "Palestinian" state. GOTCHA. b) Oppose the Trumpian agenda of MAGA c) LOVE and suppose the Deep State fascism and Gestapo tactics d) Believe AND promote the MSM fake narrative that Trump somehow was subservient to Putin (which obviously puts YOU in the propaganda-sock puppet pocket of the Left and Hitlery AND Statists.) e) Avoiding the draft for the Globalist/Military-Industrial Complex fake war that was never intended to win WAS A SMART MOVE. f) Trump won. IS President of the USA. The guy took on the Elites of both Parties, the Deep State, and the Clinton/0bama Machine. And YOU think he's a "p*ssy"?? Bwaahaa!! On what planet again? Never mind.
He lied. "It ain't over till it's over." And don’t try to argue with that. American baseball legend Yogi Berra first uttered the phrase about baseball's 1973 National League pennant race. His team was a long way behind when he said it and they did eventually rally to win the division title. There is something about the never-say-die, no-matter-the- odds-we-can-do-this spirit of "It ain't over..." that finds a place to inspire, time and time again. It tells people to wait, don't make a judgement yet, because the end is still coming. As to your first point about saying “Donald Trump got elected with 4 words: YOU'D BE IN JAIL”....that’s wrong. I can give you 24 reasons why Donald Trump won and that’s not one of them. Here, let me give you those 24 different reasons -- some way more realistic than others -- for Trump's win: 2. Because of social media, generally - The medium made the man -- much as radio won the presidency for Franklin Roosevelt and television boosted John Kennedy, social media allowed Trump and his allies to drive the narrative. 3. Because of low voter turnout - For a variety of reasons, from an enthusiasm gap to voter suppression, turnout in 2016 was lower across the board, but especially among Democrats. And it cost Clinton the election. 4. Because celebrity outlasts substance - Trump's name ID, celebrity and media- savvy overmatched Clinton's policy acumen and data-driven turnout operation. 5. Because of white women - They were just as "racist" as their white male counterparts, with whom they identify more than women from minority groups. 6. Because of white male resentment - Forget economic anxiety -- exit polls show people making the least money voted for Clinton -- and focus on identity. The best evidence lies in Trump and his supporters' calls to "take our country back." 7. Because of Russia after all? - The Russian deputy foreign minister, Sergei Ryabkov, said in an interview with state media that, contrary to Trump's denials, "quite a few" people from his "entourage" have "been staying in touch with Russian representatives." 8. Because the left and coastal elites shamed Trump supporters - The left has pressed on with an "ideology of shame" directed at the right, most notably now Trump supporters. In short: "The racism, sexism and xenophobia used by Mr. Trump to advance his candidacy does not reveal an inherent malice in the majority of Americans." 9. Because rural Midwesterners don't get out of the house enough - It's not just that elites are abandoning or ignoring Middle America -- the "rural midwest" is doing the same, becoming more isolated and resistant to the diversity (of identity and thought) on the coasts. 10. Because the Democratic Party establishment didn't push Bernie Sanders - By raising up Clinton over Sanders, the Democratic Party establishment (and its voters?) showed they favored the company and support of comfortable professionals over those beset by economic injustice. 11. Because Reagan Democrats surged in Michigan and Midwest - The so-called "Reagan Democrats" -- white, working class voters who tend to lean Democrat but bend right for special candidates like Ronald Reagan and, now, Trump -- are the story of this election. 12. Not because of millennials - But do blame the media for focusing too much on them and not enough on the older white males who were the great, underreported story of 2016. 13. Because of Gary Johnson and Jill Stein - Clinton lost for lots of reasons, most notably the millions of voters who turned out for Johnson and Stein, thus denying the Democratic support she might have received in narrowly lost states like Pennsylvania. 14. Because political correctness set off a nasty backlash - Trump's promise to "destroy" political correctness, which has run rampant on college campuses and other more liberal enclaves, won him the culture war and, thus, the presidency. 15. Because he simply listened to the American people - The political class (on the coasts) did not listen to or care enough for Middle America. Trump did. So he won. 16. Because college educated Americans are out of touch - Trump spoke to working- class voters, here mostly defined as those without college degrees, about the things they cared about: religion, liberty, marriage, sexuality, abortion and gun rights. And because "professorial sorts" who have spent time at universities drift into an "insular political culture," their candidate was doomed to lose. 17. Because Americans are biased -- but not against any race, ethnicity or gender - The election was, simply, a referendum on the ruling class in Washington, D.C. None of the other issues, be they cultural or racial, came close to mattering as much. 18. Because voters believed the system was corrupt - Voters believed their political apparatus was corrupt and Trump was the only one who reliably affirmed that belief and promised to fix it. 19. Because he remembered 'forgotten men, women' of America - While Hillary Clinton held campaign rallies with Beyoncé and Jay-Z, Trump was out talking about the "forgotten" working class, which in turn exacted a "revenge" on the political elite by voting for him. 20. Because Democrats focused more on turning out supporters than growing the base - The party and the left "have given up/abandoned/lost touch with the working class" -- as evidenced by their lame effort to persuade people outside their base. By focusing on them, Democrats ceded all else. 21. Because the Democratic National Committee selected the less competitive candidate - The party tipped the scales for Clinton, thus "defeating the purpose of running a primary" and in turn denying Sanders, a better candidate, the chance to win. 22. Not because of racism - Never mind the backlash to the country's first African- American president, this wasn't about race in the slightest. If race were an issue, then Obama wouldn't have won two terms and many of the states Trump himself prevailed in on Tuesday. 23. Because of Comey - The FBI director's decision to revive the Clinton email circus with a letter to Congress two weeks before Election Day killed the Democrat's momentum and derailed her plans to finish the campaign with a more uplifting message. It also distracted from things like Trump's comments in the "Access Hollywood" tape. 24. Not because of Comey - Clinton lost because exit polls showed more than half of voters believed she was "corrupt." And that was her own fault, not Comey's.

[Ronald Reagan] One of the GREATEST modern US Presidents speaks out about being a libertarian.
Seeking the presidency as a Republican meant in the past falling on your knnes and making burn offerings at the alter of Ronald Reaga. But Donald Trump proved that in no longer needed and definitely didn’t work in 2016.

(D)onald Trump got elected with 4 words: YOU'D BE IN JAIL.
Last point first....”He lied”, 1. He won because of Facebook and its inability or unwillingness to crack down on fake news - The social network and others like it became a clearinghouse for fake news. Not simple partisan spin, but outright lies peddled as objective truth by shady actors both inside the US and abroad.
