Today at the Tea Party Patriots' rally against the Iran nuclear deal, Reason TV caught up with GOP frontrunner Donald Trump:
Nick Gillespie: "Hey Donald, what do you think of libertarianism?"
Donald Trump: "I like it. A lot of good things. I don't want to talk to you now, but a lot of good things, a lot of good points."
Stop. Take a deep breath…Okay, are you sitting down? What you are about to read is real -- far too real.

Since the Galt's Gulch fiasco, I've avoided posting content from Berwick like the plague. Hearing him sell Galt's Gulch like it was some libertarian utopia when it's in socialist-militarist Chile was off-putting initially, but I just figured at the time it was just him being a salesman.

As readers know, I don't get involved in infighting and drama, but this is just getting ridiculous. - Chris, InfoLib

The went on to talk about how they “felt it” about Trump the moment they saw him on TV, and that he is, without a doubt, the only way to “make America great again.” It was somethin
