LOL, what a fitting outcome. The racist and Nat-C wing of the conservatives getting blown up by the cartoon economics wing of the conservatives...

Oh no how unfortunate.

Libertarian sounds like freedom maker. In reality is freedom taker.

man, i hate the fact that libertarian-ism got coopted by the right.

Oh, now we love third parties huh? The GOP is an existential threat so tbh whatever takes them out is a good thing, but long term stuff like this makes democracy look stupid and that's not good for a healthy and stable democracy, so we really need to make ranked choice a thing everywhere.

But it won't stop people from repeating "Democrats fall in love, Republicans fall in line" over and over.

An unpopular war with Iran and Trump’s expansion of executive power — two issues that grate on an anti-establishment slice of the American right — could fuel the Libertarian Party’s message of nonintervention and limited centralized authority. . .

“Some libertarians supported him thinking he was an anti-war candidate. And that’s where he’s lost them,” Brown said. “But my view and a lot of libertarians’ view is that separation of powers is very important. This president has seized way too much power in this imperial presidency.”

I've been saying for years that if Democrats actually want to appeal to "moderate Republicans" they should forget about the neocon wing and focus on the libertarian wing. They should be criticizing the Iran War more strongly (instead of just criticizing how it's been conducted) and should call for things like repealing the Patriot Act (especially with Trump holding the executive and benefitting from expanded powers). But somehow it's always the authoritarian weirdos like Zionists and transphobes who they try to appease instead.

Personally, I think they should focus on mobilizing the base instead of trying to appeal to the right. But if you are gonna appeal to the right, you should be appealing to people who have some disagreements with the GOP and sometimes break with it instead of the people who are getting exactly what they want from it.

They could, but they will vote fash because they are a fash movement.

Ohh no!!! Any ways... Republican policies suck unless you're Filthy Rich, Closeted-Self hating persons of the LGBTQ+ community, or a moron. Check your bank account for the 1st. The last 2 are self identifying

Well, they're not entirely worthless after all.

The right's greatest trick has always been to disguise the fact that they are conservatives.

Conservatives loooove capitalism, why do you think that is? What do they even teach you in school down there?

They spent too much time drilling anti-communist propaganda into your brains and not enough time educating "y'all" on what communism and the left actually is.
