Ceded the moral side to the liberals? What a frikkin' joke, but that's your opinion, and you're certainly free to express it. Though liberals like you typically think their opinion is the only opinion worthy of consideration by anyone, that doesn't make it so. I think that you're simply a know it all that couldn't find you rear end with both hands. You've been totally brainwashed by the corrupt establishment. You're opinion is still just an opinion, and it's no more right than the opinions of the people you so despise.
You guys recognize that Guiss is no liberal, right? His libertarian credentials have been pretty well established here. Yall know the difference between a liberal and a libertarian, yes?
In any case …

Correction to your statement: it is not "almost always." It is ALWAYS the leftist groups that engage in violence and vandalism.
There was that one individual, that idiot from Ohio, who drove his car into that crowd and killed that young woman last year. I am NOT excusing his stupid actions, but he was provoked and was reacting to being victimized by the violence of that leftist group that day. Still, he's a moron and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
There will be individuals who do stupid, unlawful things, but as organizations it is ALWAYS the leftists who engage in violence, which is planned from the start.
And there's where I think the underlying problem is. Everybody seems to really believe, in their hearts, that they are each being an objective realist.
For the record, while I remain opposed to many of his policy decisions, I dont "hate" the President. God help me if I ever hate anyone.

So you like paying high taxes...you can voluntarily do that and leave the rest of us alone.
You support open borders and MS-13 gangsters...invite some of those "good" MS-13ers to your house. If you are able...i.e. still alive....let us know how that works out.
You like the rest of the world stealing American jobs and taking advantage of us via unfair trade practices.
You support a weak military...sans the proposed space force you say you do support.
You support socialized health care...instead of a market-based system.
You support the "Deep State" whereby politicians, from both major parties, keep DC as their personal piggy bank, at taxpayer expense.
You support the global warming hoax, designed to redistribute wealth and hamstring the US and some other western allies.
And there are more....
I dont "like" it. But I'm willing to pay for the priviledge of living in the most advanced nation in the world.
Generally yes, to a point.You support open borders

On the whole, though, these are all complex issues. Each with its own nuances and gray areas. None of them should be quickly divided into for/against categories. Rather, they each present a continuum of possible positions. False dichotomies, scare tactics, slippery slopes, and ad hominem arguments dont really help anything. (But of course, that's about 98% of the Paw-litics Forum.)
So you are saying you would support a racist Nationalistic President if he were able to privatize state industries, improve economic independence through tariffs on imports, and increase real wages by 10.9%? That would outweigh all the negatives associated with his racist and autocratic tendencies?
