Love is patient,
love is kind.
It does not envy,
it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs
1 Corinthians 13:4-5

The Hill has a piece on Trump's reputed rebuke of neoconservatism. First, let us note his stand on ISIS is NOT non-interventionist.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Trump's willingness to wheel and deal with autocratic regimes is nothing new under the sun. One can argue it's what we did in the Cold War.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
In fact, Trump's unilateralism on trade is not unlike Bush 43's unilateralism on Iraq.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
More notably, Trump is vowing to significantly increase military spending.Given the fact we already spend more than the next 8 combined,why?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016

Trump's most recent flip-flop (on taxes) is justified saying his political positions are merely opening bids in Washington wheeling/dealing— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Silly Trump cultists for believing Trump isn't willing to throw them under the bus in pursuit of his own power and glory!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Trump likes to feed his nationalist cultists gratuitous patriotically correct soundbites, Happy Armed Forces Day. Remember Obama's flag pin?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Obama said that he decided against wearing the flag pin on his lapel because wearing a pin doesn't make one a patriot. Why had he worn it?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
@realDonaldTrump Privatize it! Don't our vets deserve the same private-sector options the rest of us have?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
The arrogant VA Secretary's dismissal of unconscionable wait times. The Procrustean State operates at its convenience:be grateful for crumbs— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Cherokee Lizzie Warren continues to spread her anti-competitive, anti-liberty, class warfare economic illiteracy to the sharing economy.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
The secret of life is #5WordEulogy— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
The VA Secretary's dismissive comparison of VA wait times to Disney is grounds for termination. Children aren't dying to get on rides.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Perhaps the VA Secretary is planning to introduce Disney-like extended hours and/or FASTPASS options if the family stays at a VA sponsor.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
The fact that the overwhelming majority of Native Americans are ambivalent over the Washington Redskins reminds me of trademark kerfuffle.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
David Post of Volokh Conspiracy points out the Obama Administration's unconstitutional cancellation of the Redskins trademark.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
I held my tongue in a Trump tweet reply on the VA secretary. Ah, yes, Trump is going to throw pixie dust and then some magic happens:good VA— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Trump is going to fix the VA? What makes anyone believe that: because Stone Cold Donald Trump said so and that's the bottom line? Get real!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Really, what the hell does Trump know about VA hospitals? Do you think he waited in a VA hospital over his heel spur(s)? Four bankruptcies!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
If Trump can't fix 4 of his bankrupted businesses, why the hell do you think he can fix the VA or any other government dysfunction?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Okay, I'm now officially done with Gary Johnson. If he wins the LP nomination, I'll probably write in a vote. He had a second at-bat on cake— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
It's called the Nazi cake question: does a Jewish baker have a right to refuse to make/sell a cake to a Nazi? Gary Johnson basically says no— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
I understand Gary Johnson's point on public accommodation and the unstated assumption that SCOTUS abandoned defense of economic liberty.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
The basic idea behind public accommodations is that your business is a government-conferred "right": the price: imposed government policies.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
Johnson may be a "realist" on public accommodation policy; we are probably stuck with a SCOTUS which will never restore economic liberty.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
But if you do not accept the fundamental economic right to contract, in spite of Carolene Products and Footnote 4, you should not be LP.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 23, 2016
#BadThingsHappenWhen you vote— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 24, 2016
It seems every day I'm getting flamed by Trump cultists. I know scores of people besides me have used the term 'fascist' to describe Trump.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 24, 2016
I tried explaining the term "economic fascism", and this one particularly dense Trump cultist thought I was making it up. Just Google it.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 24, 2016
FEE has a good post debunking the stereotype of fascist thugs (although the violence at Trump rallies feeds into that). State planning.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 24, 2016
Why the hell is the Trump campaign revisiting Bill Clinton's sexual history? Really, for a guy who has admitted to marital infidelty, Trump?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 24, 2016
I don't think the Bill Clinton angle helps the Trump campaign with independent and moderate voters. But who am I to help the Trump campaign?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) May 24, 2016
