Agreed, I like watching Krystal. I've seen Tulsi on fox news a lot lately too, CNN would never have her, so much for impartial media. I feel like Krystal is prety fair and calls out the dnc for what it is, a bunch of identity politics lovers who claim to be "smarter" and "more educated" than the "stupid hick republicans", who time and time again prove they are in many ways, worse. 

Do you watch Rising?

It's my daily must watch show.... I admit I am lucky that I work IT so i can see it when it first comes out everyday. 

 

I admit it's kind of weird how much Progressives and Conservatives have so much in common

Just being around people often makes you realize that though. The media and politicians are what primarily works on driving wedges between people and exploiting those to distract from their wrongdoings.

Ahh, you went Johnson too? 

 

Regarding the parties of Presidential candidates, I've voted for Independent/Green (1x), Libertarian (2x),  Democrat (2x).

 

Funny enough, 2012 would've been the first general I'd have voted for a Republican but Ron Paul didn't have a running mate, which isn't something a serious candidate would do, so I went with my second choice in Johnson (who had, if I remember correctly, just bailed on the GOP). I never trusted Romney, nor McCain (even tried to like Obama in 2008 but he was a fraud, especially re:surveillance/spying), and everyone here already knows what I think about GWB, and (as someone that's part of a military family including my own dad) I can't even express my true thoughts about him within the constraints of the forum rules so won't bother. Funny enough, I've met some of these people (at an old job of mine we'd regularly have celebrities/musicians/singers and politicians over for speeches or performances), even the traitor McCain, and they're nice in person, but complete piles of garbage in the political world. While to some degree we all have a public and private persona, they're usually not much different.. for these people, however, it is. 

 

That being said, even though I've always been an independent (non party affiliated, or in California was called Decline to State, not the "independent party").. full disclosure, I was far more left leaning than now, notwithstanding the overton window shifting left. However, even at that stage, I still didn't like illegal immigration (never did), so the first time I ever voted for a Republican at any level was when Gray Davis moved to issue licenses to illegals, so I voted for his recall and for Arnold. In my amazing 20/20 hindsight, I could've picked a better candidate.

I will never vote Libertarian again. They have gone off the scales nuts. Open borders.also in 2016 Johnson fell all over himself bashing Trump and prasing hillary

Krystal is the best.

Open borders are a key part of the libertarian ideology. I disagree with libertarian ideology on almost everything BTW.

While I disagreed with Libertarians on a few key issues like borders and their methodology of trade (free trade by itself is useless when getting into awful deals that hurt the US in the long run), they weren't so bad leading up to 2016, but caught the TDS bug.

That's one of the big sticking points with me on why I won't turn to the Libertarian party. I believe that as much as we don't like borders and border control they are necessity in this world. What I find really funny is that many of the people that think this way have never even left this country.
