How can one be this delusional? I have the feeling you don't understand what a libertarian is or what the enlightenment was about


Instead of piecing together a well reasoned retort that refutes my arguments, you're calling me "delusional". Please learn how to disagree.

Reading your other comments, I don't think it's possible to convince of what you don't already believe regarding Dear Leader. You live in a different universe, and are a lost cause. Just have to hope there aren't too many like you.


This isn't a forensics class. People are allowed to point out what they think is obvious without having to explain it in detail. And it's rude to insist that they do more than you've done yourself.

The article everyone's commenting on provides numerous examples of things Trump has done, some of which, such as calling for the use of the government against political rivals, are against libertarian ideals. Rather than address any of those directly, you've resorted to handwaving and providing examples of things you personally approve of. That could reasonably be seen as a failure to engage with reality, which would be delusional.

However, I don't know why the specific person you're responding to thinks you're delusional. I am not them.
