    Wanted to thank each and every one of you for allowing me into your community. This seems to be the kind of place I've been looking for. I'm a conservative but not a blind one. I try to be rational. I have no issue calling out my own if they deserve it and often do. Likewise, I don't mindlessly attack Democrats just for the sake of attacking. I listen. Believe it or not both sides have great ideas. As far as Trump goes I do not like the man whatsoever. Also not a fan of DeSantis. So far I'm liking Scott and Haley for the Republican nomination but not sure if either has a shot.

    As far as I go, I like music (classic rock, jazz, blues, classical), sports (Gators, Bucs, Lightning, Magic), reading, outdoors (hiking, camping, etc.), and other stuff. I'm currently enjoying my 3rd year of retirement after 27 years in my beloved Marine Corps. I have to admit while retirement is nice I do miss being in the military. It was extremely stressful but there was a certain love and passion attached to it. Anyways, it's a pleasure to meet you all and looking forward to being an active member of your community.
     
    Ex navy here, and yes I know what you mean about missing military life. Been out since 1982 and I can say that it was some of the best times in my life. I started out as a conservative but soon I found out that that side of the fence was not as open to helping people as I hoped. I like the Democrat more about social issues and they’re open to more freedoms to allow people to make their own choices. You can correct me if I’m wrong, but I feel the Republicans are all about greed and big business and yet they want government to stay out of their big business, someone Has to keep an eye on them, because as they say, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Touching on your point on the Republican nominee Nikki Haley would’ve been someone of interest. She does have some interesting viewpoints, but unfortunately, at this point in time the orange demon has the republican party by the short and Curly‘s. And until that changes and they get rid of him we’re gonna have more of the same , which is a shame.
