Pretty much the past two years I've seen LP emails talking about things like inclusiveness etc....
Mises people are different that LP. Austrian economic theorists are very close to who I am, and Mises is very close to being an Austrian.
Hopefully, the Constitution.
Most of the emails I've gotten from them are promoting how "diverse" they are.
Puke.
I was on the phone earlier with Adam Kokesh about the directions the party is taking and neither of us know.
Typical experience the past year:
Them: "So-and-so was healthy and under 40 and just died"
Me: "Ummmmm, was he vaxxed?"
Them: "Of course, he loved people and believed in silence. Why do you ask?"
Me: "ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz"
Hello fellow traveler.
I have no disagreement.
You're assuming Libertarians would have voted for Trump if we only had 2 choices.
I don't think that's the case.
Start at the 1 hour 27 minute mark and spread this around:
I understand. I used to think the same thing.
Then I started reading the Founding documents and came to a bit of a different understanding of what Federalism means.
The Federal Government cannot and should not even attempt any gun legislation. That's what the 2A says. We're in agreement on that part.
State's can do a bit, but I'd argue that most of their gun restrictions run counter to their own State Constitutions, and I'd challenge those all day long.
With clean voter rolls, which AZ doesn't have yet, and fair elections, which AZ is better at now than in 2020, Masters would likely win.
Do your job well. Godspeed.
Hope you're right. The lying polls suggest he's losing, so it'll be close. I haven't heard People's Pundit weigh in on this race lately, and that's the best barometer.
It does appear that AZ elections should be cleaner this time around, but I'm not holding my breath.
He's an imperfect candidate, perhaps because he's new at this, but I want him to win.
Perhaps, but I'm still historically correct.
The establishment GOP certainly isn't going to do it.
I consider myself a Constitutionalist.....something about halfway between MAGA and a Libertarian. The similarities are more important than the differences.
Fair enough.
I left the party because the LP sucks, not because I don't like and agree with the people on many issues.
Nope, I'd be voting Masters if I lived in AZ.
I just want him to be a better candidate so he has a better chance of winning.
Only if you assume they are draining Republican votes. I'm not sure that's the case.
Trump didn't lose the 2020 election, but there's plenty of people out there who recognize that the Republican Party sucks almost as bad as the Democrat Party.
You can't assume Libertarians would have voted for Trump just because they were given a binary choice.
Doomsday Clock: 11:59:45
That's how I've coached the candidates I'm working with.
(Check out Tyler Geffeney, running for Congress in Chula Vista.....he's become a good friend and he listens.)
Libertarians are usually wrong on immigration. I disagreed with them when I was a registered Libertarian.
It's just common sense that you have to have limits.
What is he afraid of?"
The media and the "centrist" voter.
He hasn't learned from Trump.
Most Libertarians are wrong about borders. Some don't even want borders, but those are the anarcho-capitalists and they are fringe even in the LP.
Is it that difficult to say:
There were enough unprecedented irregularities that I think it's fair to question the legitimacy in some States. Enough Americans are questioning this that it makes sense to at least take a look and see what happened, but all we are getting is accusations of being an "election denier" instead of looking into the irregularities".
Or even:
"I don't know if the election was fair. We weren't allowed to look"
Smile.
