    Do Trump Supporters Care if he lies to them?

    I thought we were having a conversation in this thread. Am I mistaken? I don't really care though - it's your ideology that's dying, not mine - but there's no need to be so coarse. Ignore the evidence, statistics, and so on that concretely demonstrate the death of, well, America as we know and...

    Do Trump Supporters Care if he lies to them?

    The result is far more severe than one mere underclass developing which perpetually demands welfare. What should concern you as a conservative is how the demographic transition will affect the popularity of what we'll term "conservative ideals": limited government, cool references to Jefferson...

    Which Candidate will be Least Divisive?

    The current climate in American politics is one of bitterness, and the divisiveness of the leading candidates reflects that. Jeb! would probably be less divisive than the other GOP contenders since he, well, stands for less. Jim Webb would probably be the only Democratic candidate with a chance...

    Do Trump Supporters Care if he lies to them?

    Please tell me why a future "minority-majority" America will vote in a candidate supporting Jeffersonian limited government and Anglo-Saxon model (freshwater) economics, when minorities today already strongly side against a GOP running on a heavily watered down and phony version of those ideals?

    Do Trump Supporters Care if he lies to them?

    American "conservatism" will be "done" in the near future unless illegal immigration is curtailed and reversed. Statist or no statist, Trump wants to halt and reverse something that will actually result in statism - swathes of Latin Americans entering the country who will vote for whichever...

    The One Trait Trump Supporters Have

    I'm young, white, educated, wealthy, and not a "social conservative", and I'm a Trump supporter. :shrug: Trump's opponents' inability to understand his broad-appeal will only cost them.

    Hello from Mid-Atlantic U.S.

    I suppose it was a warning of sorts. I can't claim to be either hardworking or useful (yet). My parents are well off and I had a perfect SAT. Things fell into place. I don't want to go into politics. Princeton's definitely entangled in the ivory-tower, Washington-Soviet complex that's often...

    Is the GOP Commiting Political Suicide?[W:11]

    What positions should the GOP take to court minority votes? Any specific policies? I'm genuinely curious to hear your thoughts.

    What Are You Reading Right Now?

    I'm reading Ideas Have Consequences by Richard Weaver, a brilliant mind largely forgotten, or so it seems.

    Palin endorses Trump

    The recent comments on her Facebook page are unanimously critical of her endorsement. Time will tell whether this impacts Trump's campaign in any way, but it's clear that Palin's endorsement will cost her.

    Trump: Apple should build 'their damn things' in US

    Since when does Trump support "free trade"? He's positioned himself as a supporter of 'fair trade' and a critic of many of the landmark 'free trade' deals because they harm American industry.

    Palin endorses Trump

    Cruz's trump card against Trump is that the business executive isn't a "true" conservative, that he embodies "New York values" and the blind pursuit of money, etcetera. Cruz certainly can't claim to be any more "electable", or less polarizing, than Trump. Without the confident and undivided...

    Is Hollywood/Academy Awards Racist?

    There are many Awards Galas all over the world dedicated to acknowledging the best in film. Curiously, hardly any acknowledged black stars in film last year. It's far more likely that there simply wasn't strong enough performances by black stars to warrant inclusion at these Awards ceremonies...

    Palin endorses Trump

    I'm assuming this is positive for Trump, at least for the primaries. Many conservatives and long-time GOP voters have questioned Trump's conservative credentials - the backing of a key Tea Party leader should quell those concerns. Although, this will undoubtedly be used against Trump if he...
