We Are Libertarians

It is finally over! Donald Trump won the presidency in one of the greatest political comebacks in American history. Why did Trump win, and why did Kamala Harris lose? We look at 2024's fear-based political messaging from both sides and the mental health crisis it caused, the economic frustrations across America, and the disillusionment of younger generations. We also look at the Libertarian Party's fifth-place finish and why, and we touch on the role of local community engagement in political change.

Every election is billed as the most important election of our lifetime. Choosing Kamala Harris or Donald Trump will not end America, but it does present two fundamentally different paths of political ideology for voters. Harry Price, Rhinehold, Brian Wholgemuth, and I discuss the future presidencies of Harris or Trump and what will happen in the days after the election.

We cover a spectrum of issues such as Libertarian Party strategies, global political trends, the encroachment of digital currency control, economic policies, and even the potential societal collapse! That's what happens when we check in with our fin Andy Horning. 

We discuss the necessity for substantial change within American politics, skepticism towards incrementalism and the World Economic Forum's vision for the future, financial challenges to welfare programs, and the power of a passionate minority to instigate political revolution. Andy also talks about his Senate run and the promotion of his book "Relighting the Torch," proposing solutions to these issues.
