For those who still think:

1) raimondo is intelligent

2) raimondo is conservative

I rather doubt that there's anybody left on this forum that still believes either of these. Heck, I don't even like it when people call him "libertarian", much less conservative.

Though, as much as it pains me to admit it, the current "concept" of libertarian philosophy as espoused by the national party could be stretched to cover Raimondo.

the current "concept" of libertarian philosophy as espoused by the national party could be stretched to cover Raimondo.

And it's a damned shame.  A party of liberty that included secure borders and national defense could easily fit in the gulf that is opening up as liberals retrogress and the country moves rightward.  Sadly, the Libertarian Party is in the grasp of Birkenstockers.
