Why Trump will win in 2024.

[Thumpalumpacus]

Keeping the government out of our private lives won't draw the dipshits looking to make government so small it can fit inside a uterus and drown a teenage rape victim in the bathtub.

(I did the whole "libertarian" thing when I realized that the gop had left the place I'm at, until I realized it was a front for legalized racism and a wedge meant to continue gifting the gop with unrepresentative authority.  LOL, I still remember when Hannity was a "libertarian" radio shock jock.)

I too am a recovering libertarian. It sounds nice and well on paper until we actually look at what it entails.

"911, what is your emergency? Do you need police, fire, or ambulance?"
"Fire, the house is burning down, and ambulance, at least one burn victim."
"What's your address?"
"911 Astout Drive. Hurry!"
Fire truck rolls up on the scene. Out jumps the crew chief with a card swiper in hand. "Will this be Mastercard, Visa, AMEX, or Discover? Or do you have a bank card?"
"My wallet's in the house, and so is my wife!"
"Sir, calm down. Can you read and sign this payment agreement?" [Crew chief breaks out phone, swipes a couple of times]
Hurriedly signing the agreement, "Will they be okay?!"
"Sir, the agreement explicitly states that results are not guaranteed."

A month later, the $14000 bill comes in for the cost of operations to extinguish the fire. The wife didn't make it out alive.
