Hey folks!  New to these boards.  Got tired of listening to all the C%$p on Facebook from the libs.  Wanted to find a space I could express my true conservative feelings without a bunch of crap.  Glad to find this space.  I'm a southerner, retired military (Navy), and seriously right wing.  Me and Attila the Hun would've gotten along great.  Well, according to all the libs I talk to anyways.  Economically I'm pretty libertarian.  Small government, states rights to control their own economy, not too much (if any) interference from the feds.  Don't care for racists - of whatever stripe.  Wouldn't call myself a white nationalist, but would call myself a US nationalist.  (as if there's something wrong with that!)  As for LGBTQ issues, I really don't care what you do in the privacy of your bedroom.  Not any of my business.  But I liked the old days in the military of don't ask don't tell and think it should be applied to the rest of the society - including straight folks.  The entire world should be in the closet when it comes to your sexual preferences.  I really don't want to know.  TMI, dude! 

Big Trump supporter here.  He's frickin' great!  I laugh every time he does something off the wall.  Just blows away the swamp.  About time.  He really energized me.  I was too apathetic before, but I always voted.  Full confession - about 20+ years ago, I voted for a dem (not Clinton, local race).  Please forgive me.  It was a case of youthful indiscretion.

I was up in DC vacationing recently (my brother lives up there) and went to see the White House.  Sure enough a big protest was going on.  Headed up by Rosie O'Donnell herself.  It put me a little over the edge.  I just said I don't want to talk to these folks anymore.  I'm sick of their constant whining.  "oooh, I'm a victim."  You're a daggum millionaire who's never had to work hard your whole life.  And you're ugly too.  That's what finally prompted me to find a decent online space where I can just vent without having to listen to their stuff.  Hoping this place is it.

What else?  Married for 25 years plus.  Kids out of the home.  Still working for now for a small government contractor, but may completely retire soon.  I mean why work?  I got military pension, savings, and soon enough SS.  (provided that last isn't taken away).

Anything else you want to know, let me know.

Welcome Slider. You'll find you fit Right in, most of us are old farts that vote, We're TEA, and like you, not racist in any way, but to define us, I prefer a term I coined: "Culturalist", I prefer the culture that made this country the greatest in history, anything less is just leftist division.
Again, welcome.

Welcome. If you say you are what you are you will fit right in. We are conservative and reject anything that approaches racism. Looking forward to your thoughts. We are from all over and, like you, I am a southerner.

Is that what leftists call us? It's only conspiracy, when you can't prove it.
We prove it everyday, that Marxists want to destroy free mkt Capitalism.

Well, I am technically not a newbie.  I registered here about 5-6 years ago, and posted a tiny bit, but had some personal catastrophes that took my attention from politics, and I never made it back, until now.
I am known as Tiny1.  One of the First TRUE Trump Supporters.  I am in my Sixties, and remember every POTUS since Kennedy.  Was a Republican for years, but Changed to Independent Conservative during the GHW Bush Administration.  I still have never voted for a Democrud.  I was forced out of a couple of Right Minded Forums, for not being a Cruz Bot.  You would have thought I was being attacked by Democraps.  Then, once I was vindicated by Trump as he showed everyone he was a Great President and really knew how to get things done, I was already dealing with my wife's loss of a Kidney, ands my TIA mini strokes, caused because I gained back most of the over 100 lbs I had lost.  Since then, concentrating on my health, has been a full time affair.
I left another forum because the Admin was protecting Leftists Internationale.  She claimed I was insinuating "sinister" motives to her actions, and I disagreed and told her I was implying NOTHING.  I was stating implicitly that I believed she was favoring foreign posters and protecting them to expand the forum.    Since I told her it is her right to run her board, it was my right, to move my feet.  So, I did.
Gonna Try to revive myself, here, if y'all don't mind.  Getting to be 'lection time again, and I need to get my political itch scratched.

Damn tiny, it's been years. I remember you from LNF before it became a leftist troll site. Welcome back, and yes, Trump is kicking ass! :thumbsup:

Great to hear from you, Solar.  Hope everything with you, is Stellar.
I always knew he'd succeed, but even I had NO IDEA he could accomplish so much, with so little and with the Dems and NT's nippin' at his heals like a Jack Russell Terrier.  Just Imagine if he had support of Congress.   :thumbsup:
Maybe it will happen this time, and we can get 4 years of Growth and Sanity, and then pray that Pence gets two terms.
Thanx for the warm welcome, Solar.  Good to be back.

I never was a Trump supporter. I was fed up with the GOP RINO forcing leftists on us, so I backed Cruz. Long story short, I'm glad Cruz didn't 'win, only a man of Trump's caliber could do what he has done, and there is no other like him, God broke the mold, sadly.

Oh, we won't hold that against you. :laugh:
I was completely frustrated with the Pubbies, too.  And,  I hate the Dems.  So, I initially took to Trump, because he was neither.
Upon doing my Due Diligence, I began to find out things, no one else was talking about.  Like how Trump sent his own 727 to bring a 3 year old Jewish boy to New York for a much needed surgery.  The Airlines wouldn't help, because the boy required O2, Suction and Adrenalin to make the flight.  The plane would require an upfit.  The Airlines refused the upfit.
Trump was notified and had his own plane equipped and brought the boy STAT.  I liked the way he performed on 9/11. And when I read about how he took on the City Council of Palm Beach to force them to allow him to enroll Blacks and Jews into his Country Club, I was Sold.
I knew the Lobbyists couldn't buy him.
I knew he owed Washington Insiders, nothing.
And I knew he was a decent man, who loved his Family and his Country.  Unafraid to speak of God and Christ, the deal was sealed.
My dear Sweet Loving Wife, had NEVER voted.  Being a California Girl, it was never stressed in her family.(Ms. Tiny's Mom was a Hillarite.)  She MADE me take her to register and prodded me to take her to vote.   I have never seen her more proud than when she was wearing her Make America Great Again pin.
Oh Well, I wax nostalgic.  Going home, now.  Se ya' tomorrow.

How's it going everyone? New to these boards and looking for a place to talk conservative politics. I'm a 29 year old Floridian and Christian. Most of my political views are libertarian, as I'm for small government and personal liberty, though not as socially liberal as most libertarians. I'm a strong 2a supporter viewing gun control laws as unconstitutional, I'm pro-life, pro-cannabis legalization, for criminal justice reform (decriminalizing drug use/harsher sentencing for selling/trafficking etc), I'm ok with same sex marriage, as I feel what goes on in anyone's bedroom or who you decide to marry isn't government's business. However, I'm a strong believer that there are only 2 genders and disagree with gender identity being given the place it is being given. Anyone is free to identify as whatever they want to identify as, but the government should not consider you the gender you identify as, nor should it force others, to include employers and other citizens to treat you as such. I'm also a strong 4a supporter and believe the government has been given far too much power in the name of terrorism. I'm a free market capitalist, believing the government should have little to no involvement in the free market. I support auditing the federal reserve and eliminating unnecessary federal agencies. As far as foreign policy, I believe wars should only be fought in defense of our country, however, I have no problems with special operations units training and advising foreign militaries/militias in the fight against terrorism. I would favor cuts to defense spending, so long as we could maintain the world's best trained and technologically advanced military. I agree with increasing border security (a.k.a building the wall), deporting illegal immigrants (though I favor paths to citizenship for those that have been here more than 10 years, have created a family, and pay taxes/can prove they have been working). Though I may not agree with him on everything, I am a strong Trump supporter and believe he is the president America needed after Obama. I believe he has done an admirable job and has been the best president in my lifetime. I'd like to see him give Rand Paul a spot on his cabinet if re-elected in 2020 and believe somebody like Rand Paul should be the future of the Republican Party.

I look forward to discussions on here and learning more, as mainstream media becomes increasingly unreliable. If you have any questions, ask away.

Any other libertarian leaning Republicans on here?

Welcome to the forum Repub. Though, I imagine your opinions may shift in time, considering we're a hardcore Conservative site. Libertarianism is a young party movement to mist of us here since we were around to watch it mature and morph leftward.
Stick around, you'll see what I mean. Again, welcome aboard. :thumbup:

29 year old, you have time to become a full Conservative yet.  Most of us were Conservative before you were born.  So we know what small government should be like.  Along with our 1 and 2 amendment rights, most of us feel out rights come from God that why we have the 1 and 2 amendments.

It will be fun seeing you change on most things if you stick around.
