‘It’s never been a better time to date as a conservative’: Meet the NYC singles looking for the ‘right’ stuff — and to Make America Hot Again

The hottest pickup line in singles bars today? “Hi, I’m MAGA.”
No longer is it a liability to be an out-of-the-closet Republican — it’s actually a calling card, young singles told The Post.
Comely conservatives are simply looking for a mate to MAGA with — and they’re breaking through in big, blue cities, at right-wing ragers, on targeted dating apps and at Trump rallies.
“It’s never been a better time to date as a conservative,” crowed CJ Pearson, co-chair of the GOP Youth Advisory Council, who punched back against a January New York magazine piece smearing his diverse DC inauguration party as all-white.
“Being conservative right now is the coolest it’s ever been,” added the single DC-based political advisor, who boasted that women want to be with a guy who’s a “provider and who they feel safe around.”
Good luck finding that in a guy “with pronouns in his bio,” he added.
It was a flashback to NYC in the 1990s.
The killing of Iran’s tyrannical Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on Saturday in an unprecedented joint military attack by the US and Israel called Operation Epic Fury set off widespread celebrations from Iranians around the world — as President Trump said it would give them their “greatest chance” to “take back the country.” Meanwhile, in Iran, a lack of internet has made it impossible for Iranians to easily communicate daily conditions. Over a period of three days, with limited VPN connection, an eyewitness currently in Tehran — who, for her safety, is concealing her identity — shared her account of life under a country in the midst of battle with The Post’s Natasha Pearlman.
After exactly 120 years, the curtain has fallen on the Theater District institution Barbetta, with the iconic Italian restaurant having served its final course Friday night.
