    I'm not confused.

    The donkephant's polarization of America ( the only way they can survive given their collective record) has made those terms as well as conservative ( of which there can be at least two separate types )meaningless for open discussion. They are simply insults to help the division continue to grow.
    I now look at people on a sort of control scale. The main steam dems and the repubs are both massively controlling. Moreover they want to exert that control unconstitutionally at the federal level vs. the state level where some of their ideas may be constitutional and effective. The founders were not this controlling and neither is the LP. The Greens are not without their points but they should market them at the state level .
    Meanwhile the donkephant stranglehold on our political systems excludes the ideas of other parties from the conversation in many ways.

    There are no issues surrounding Turning Point unless you are opposed to the ideas of promoting fiscal responsibility, free markets and limited government.

    Umm are you claiming that Trump is promoting fiscal responsibility or limited government? Have you seen the spending on his watch?

    I was talking about the organization called Turning Point USA. How did you come up the link to Trump with my comment? That's weird.


    Turning Point is an organization which advocates fiscal responsibility, free markets and limited government.


    I know it's difficult for some to not see Trump behind every tree.

    Today there exactly the same. Have you learned nothing from MSNBC or, for that matter, this form. There is no difference.
    Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation
    Pick your enemies carefully.
