But surely not a...Trump is a mixed-bag, to be sure. But surely not as bad as all who came before him. With Trump there's at least something in the bag. With his predecessors post-Eisenhower, nothing but corruption and lies serving upper-crust interests. <br /><br />(Well, I mean, if you were to dig through history you might be able to find some things they did that were on a level of competence. But that would be the equivalent of searching through a garbage dumpster for a meal. Not the way you want to have to do it. Not something you would call democracy.) <br /><br />The problem is Big City Liberals are really cliquish. Real Mean Girls. Used to getting their way by baffling and bullying people with bullshit. That process may work with whatever kind of cult of crazy you have going. <br /><br />But you can't bully people when they vote. Because when they get to their place of privacy and cast their vote, that's when they give you a big giant GFY! if all you're giving them is bullshit.<br /><br />That's what's going to happen in the upcoming midterm elections. And it won't be bribe-taking lawyer-politicians who take the blame for the walloping. The Fake Media will scapegoat "Bernie Bros" to kill off their movement.<br /><br />Bigotry is not enough. Hatred is not enough. Polarized thinking is not enough – especially in a three-corned contest. Then it's deadly. Sometimes you need rational thinking in place of triggered emotions, especially in times when "Animal Farmers" are pressing so many buttons. <br /><br />BTW, Doug Ford is a neocon globalist, who, unlike Trump, did not win a democratic election (let alone a trifecta.) He's a member of your "Resistance" against Trump. The neocon-neolib-neoprog axis of nihilism. <br /><br />Of course, the neocons and neolibs understand they are on the same side serving the same master. Neoprogs are just sheep being led to the slaughter. (On the other side, they come out neoliberals! Welcome to your Carlsberg years! Welcome to the Machine.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-41429359124629548892018-06-09T06:30:28.207-07:002018-06-09T06:30:28.207-07:00.. 5:43 PM - anonymous - Salutes Trump
Laughable ..... 5:43 PM - anonymous - Salutes Trump<br /><br />Laughable - Trump is a posturing fraud, misogynist, serial liar and his associates in the GOP are getting their pockets lined just as Trump is.. along with how many golf outings.. Nothing he has said or whined about has a glimmer of truth.. but that's 'getting the ball rolling? Electoral gerrymandering, stripping black American of their vote.. The Trump & GOP are a squirming pus sack of faux Evangelistics. I think they all think they 'can take it with them' including the country clubs & memberships & Lear jets. Sure, Bannon was & is 'sweetheart' as is Hannity - not ! Red pill, blue pill.. ah balony.. One of the great horseshit salad comments I have ever seen.. no lettuce or tomato. That someone dragged from the rabbit hole but behind the looking glass.. Maybe I misssed that it may pure satire.. or does its 'author' think nobody can follow the threads of actual reality, ethics and values via multiple sources.. other than Fox TV (dazed & comfused & viciously partisan - cashing in on nonsense)the salamanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06853337802990122289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-35998293480678525132018-06-09T01:35:48.805-07:002018-06-09T01:35:48.805-07:00America WAS the aggressor. Before Trump!
GWB, BH...America WAS the aggressor. Before Trump! <br /><br />GWB, BHO and HRC spread war, chaos and terrorism across the Middle East sending a flood of refugees into Europe. Less than 2 years in, Trump is mopping up the war against ISIS. Seems all he had to do was stop arming terrorists and slaughtering civilians.<br /><br />Trump also appears to be ending the wars across the Americas. First came the "war on socialism" with the American-backed coup in Chile in 1973. That brought CIA death squads and torture-chamber laboratories. By the end of the 1980s, super-gangs had spread from US inner-city ghettos to across the Americas. Then came the wars on crime and drugs. (Law Enforcement gotta eat.) This produced the "era of mass incarceration" (fueled by private-prison-sweatshop profits – no less racist and rotten than slavery) and a of flood of refugees into the US.<br /><br />Trump wants to bring $15/hr wages to Mexican autoworkers and (I would imagine) stop decades of Deep State corruption in the region – as well as the flood of refugees (being brutalized by savage gangs and drug cartels.) <br /><br />He also says he plans on freeing People of Color who had their lives stolen from "three strikes" legislation – brought to America by the Clintons (who called Black youth "super predators" to build support for an inner-city po-lice crack-down.)<br /><br />I would say the people who unconditionally HATE Donald J. Trump are looking more and more unreasonable. If they have any causes of worth, they are not doing them any favors.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-63601597463701687592018-06-08T18:34:33.798-07:002018-06-08T18:34:33.798-07:00Trailblazer asked, "When will we accept that ...Trailblazer asked, "When will we accept that on many occasions the aggressor is the USA?"<br /><br />That is increasingly the elephant in the room.

Trump is putting an end to the failed "neoliberal" era of free-trade globalization that has brought Western civilization to the brink of collapse.<br /><br />Let's impeach him! Presidents aren't supposed to do things! They're just supposed to flap their gums and tell us oligarchs control the world and you'll just have to suck it up.<br /><br />One doesn't have to agree with everything Trump does. That's what democratic government is all about. One administration accomplishes some things, makes some mistakes. The pendulum swings and the next government builds on the positive accomplishments and corrects course where errors were made.<br /><br />Trump is getting the ball rolling – BIG TIME – after 55 years of nothing. The first accomplished leader since the days of great leaders like Eisenhower, Lester Pearson and Tommy Douglas. <br /><br />If you are opposed to everything Trump is doing, you are in support of everything that has gone on over the past decades: since Reagan, since Nixon, since JFK killed the New Deal on an economic-to-social-progressive pivot. <br /><br />You are on the side of corrupt corporations, upper-crust moochers raping and pillaging the globe and their lapdog Liars in Public Places. They are the ones telling you to act hysterical. They are the ones spiking the prolefeed with crystal meth.<br /><br />(The Red Pill is way tastier than the Blue Pill or the Black Pill. You don't have to be chained to the walls of the Cave. Just walk right on out into the open green fields, fresh air and that endless horizon.
