A libertarian wants you to know that accumulated losses in a war are "not sensible", as if war were ever sensible

 "Here, let's look at this completely irrational thing and apply some logic to it now that we're down 28 points in the fourth quarter".

Their tidy little world of dollars and cents makes no sense, either.

Imagine Winston Churchill saying this after Dunkirk.

 

 

The last time banks failed and the economy tanked while a Republican was president, "Dunkirk" meant this

Hoover, 1932: 59 electoral votes

Landon, 1936:  8 electoral votes

Willkie, 1940: 82 electoral votes

Dewey, 1944: 99 electoral votes

Dewey, 1948: 189 electoral votes 

McCain, 2008: 173 electoral votes

Romney, 2012: 206 electoral votes

NeverTrump, 2016:

Ben Shapiro, of Michelle Fields infamy, says it may be Dunkirk for conservatives, but not Shanksville

Here at The Daily Wire, where he is much too sanguine about conservative "victories":

"Publius’ oddest argument is that conservatives have been losing, and only losing, for decades. This is historically ignorant."

Actually that's what an earnest young man of 32 would be expected to say, and you have to give him credit for that, even if he is wrong.
