 No problem. I appreciate your reply. I’m just a 60 y.o. pizza guy (not techie at all) that cares deeply about freedom. I worried as shit about the future of my children and grandchildren.  Therefore I just want to take every chance I can to get this country right before it’s too late.
I and do believe Trump - Along with Elon, RFK, Vivek, Vance, Gabbard - make a formidable team. (Obviously I’ve been disappointed before by politicians, so who knows??)
And to be honest, after the covid hysteria and tyranny I am beyond disgusted.  And it’s what drove me to bitcoin. 
Bitcoin though - Does give me great hope, as does Nostr.
Lastly - I live in Michigan - our democratic far leftist tyrannical zealot Governor locked michigan down like a bitch.  Luckily we live 20
Minutes from Indiana - and were down there all
The time and I drove to Florida 5x’s because I refuse to wear their slave mask to Fly.
Republican ran states - as bad as they initially were - were far far better and much, much more free than democrat ran ones. 
Presidents have coattails, bring Tons of appointments, etc.
Therefore, I’m taking my best shot. Take care.
I wish you well. 
 I am afraid that four years of good governance cannot cannot put a lid on leviathan.  But I also have hope.

That which divides us is belief and by extension our actions, one man cannot and should not judge another without at least a modicum of compassion.

That which unites us is more powerful than our action noble, efficate or hopeless.  Bitcoin is a unifier that reaches over all the castles and moats of human perception eventually crumbling it all down to dust.

Leaving us all equally exposed and vulnerable, staring at each other over ankle deep rubble only to realise, we are brothers who just want to protect and care for our wives and children.

That is a powerful magic.  A miracle older than byzantine math problems.  An algorythm with potential to solve envy, hate and organised violence.

So forgive the philisophic anarchists for thinking low of what we believe to be antiquated ways of giving away sovereignity gained through abstinance.

Trump will do good and everyone will be starry eyed, for a spell.  Then he will fuck things up so bad you will wish you had nothing to do with the whole shitshow.  And by you I mean every one who voted, not you as in you personally.

Bitcoin is the collossus, the great pyramid, the lighthouse, the great library of Alexandria.
A wonder making the attempts of man to "fix" things seem paltry and negligible in comparison. 
 Nostr is a product of bitcoin, without bitcoin there would be no nostr.
