2018 Christmas Gift Ideas for Conservatives

Christmas is right around the corner. If you are looking to liven up the day with some conservatism and capitalism, here are some great gift ideas and stocking stuffers. 

The Capitalist Comeback: The Trump Boom and the Left's Plot to Stop It by Andrew Puzder. Puzder covers the complete history of capitalism in the United States, including the history of the Trump family. This book is a pleasure to read and includes many interesting examples of how liberals have interfered with American capitalism throughout the history of our nation. 

Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt. This book is a must-have for every household. Though written back in the 1940s, it remains a staple of a proper capitalist education. Recommended by the likes of Ayn Rand and Ron Paul, it’s sure to put a smile on the face of a beloved conservative.

MAGA Hat Ornament by Trump Make America Great Again Committee. Make Christmas ever greater with an ornament to commemorate Donald Trump's historic presidency. It's as fancy as the man himself, finished in 24 karat gold.

Why I Stand: From Freedom to the Killing Fields of Socialism by Burgess Owens. Owens is a retired NFL safety who played for the New York Jets and the Oakland Raiders. He writes about the socialist underpinnings of the NFL kneeling movement and other liberal brainwashing schemes. He argues in favor of America, Judeo-Christian values, individualism, and capitalism. 

Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. What should be an American household staple is commonly left off American bookshelves after it is digested in our youth. I recommend filling the void and re-reading the most paramount and influential novel of the last century.

What Justice Demands: America and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict by Elan Journo. Journo dives into the fascinating history and common misconceptions about Israel and the Palestinian movement. He objectively outlines arguments for American interests and concludes that justice demands for us to stand with Israel, the only truly free country in the Middle East. 

NRA Membership by National Rifle Association of America. NRA memberships come with a magazine subscription and a gift of your choice. Current gift options include a duffel bag, an embroidered hat, and a pocket knife. Magazine subscription options: America's 1st Freedom, American Rifleman, American Hunter, and Shooting Illustrated.

Media Madness: Donald Trump, the Press, and the War over the Truth by Howard Kurtz. A fascinating insider perspective of how the media lost their marbles over Donald Trump’s presidential run and subsequent win in the 2016 presidential election. Filled with stories about Trump, Kellyanne Conway, and our *favorite* liberal reporters.

Who Built That: Awe-Inspiring Stories of American Tinkerpreneurs by Michelle Malkin. One of America’s sharpest commentators has written easy-to-read stories about American inventors who have contributed to American capitalism and technological progress. She reminds us of the American ingenuity behind little big things we take for granted: bottle caps and glassware, tissue paper, flashlights, railroad signals, bridge cables, revolutionary plastics, and more.

Russian Matreshka Dolls by Some Random Russians, or maybe Chinese since they are probably made in China. What better way to make your liberal friends even more suspicious of a Russian collusion than to become part of it! Proudly display your Russian ties with some painted wooden stacking dolls. Mine are neatly displayed next to a Donald Trump bobblehead. 

And for those of you looking to cheer up your grumpy liberal neighbors who are afraid to utter the words Merry Christmas, I recommend Edgar Allan Poe: Complete Tales and Poems. Just kidding. They need to start at the beginning, so gift them a Tuttle Twins children's economics book. 

Note: This author does not make any profit from any recommended products. Duty-free recommendations here.

"Mine are neatly displayed next to a Donald Trump bobblehead."

So if I put my Trump bobblehead next to my Einstein bobblehead does the mass local economy accelerate at the speed of light squared?

I respectfully suggest an alternative:

For here we have no continuing city, but we seek one to come.

I’ve never read Ayn Rand and am not interested about it. Many Freepers swear by it though.

Some excellent philosophical prose packaged in turgid ESL Russian.

There is also another great Ayn Rand book which is MUCH shorter but still with an excellent lesson, Anthem.
