First of all, Jacob needs another microphone. Or a producer who makes sure his talk sounds right.

It's so low I need to download the video and use vlc's preamp magic and a headset to listen. and yet I'm missing most of what he says. It's a pity.

But I know how to do that. And I'm somewhat interested in what he says, because I like the guy. But I doubt anyone could find 100 people who would do that.

I just don't think they do funding right. In order to get people's money you have to throw a big populist show. Yet, that only works with econ innumerate muggles. Not many of those in this bizarre space of libertarian politics.

Look. Let's just follow H.L.Mencken adage: Every election is an advance auction sale of stolen goods.

Therefore, just tell your targets that they will get twice or thrice compensation once Hornberger becomes the POTUS. Why not? It's not immoral to do reparations to libertarians. Maybe it is immoral to make an impossible promise, but if you frame it as raffle and you make it funny, even libertarians would donate.

But, alas, Jacob Hornberger is too uptight for that.

After listening. The problem is that it's too incredible. Many libertarians know there was no covid disease, much less a virus. These people are too underinformed to do any good in as a candidate because of their ignorance of the scam that is western medicine in general, germ theory in particular, and the myriad of scams of the State based on that. Even the people who are minarchists are aware of the scam. At least some of them are.

The system must be destroyed, attacked at the roots, and the criminals must pay back. There is no way for Hornberger, who is totally and willfully ignorant of all this, to be elected for anything. I think people don't give him money because the correctly conclude that it's not worth it. Principles are good, but being misinformed about the THEME OF OUR TIME is a finisher of any campaign.
