Donald Trump talks about his dick at start of Detroit Republican debate.

THE AGONY OF LIBERALISM
The serious threat for liberal Western societies is from within and without. Liberalism may be feeble as a battle cry, but nothing is more important for human dignity and decency.

Hi Ashlyn, this article supports liberalism and accuses Trump of authoritarianism and "anti-rational bigotry". That's not a ringing endorsement. Are you sure you meant to post it? It strikes a pessimistic tone but only because it argues that liberalism is flagging and more authoritarian styles of leadership are on the ascent.

300: Make America Great Again



Donald Trump continues his victorious path through the US presidential election 2016. After forcefully succeeding president Obama he faces the globalists and their puppets. But with only 300 Spartan warriors, can he beat George Soros himself? Will he Make America Great Again?

I opened the link and it says uploaded by "aryan wisdom".
No surprise there.

Trump supporters are exactly the losers Trump keeps talking about. They aren’t losers really. Most of them have families who love them and most of them are middle class. But they perceive themselves as waning. Although loved and reasonably comfortable, they are coming to realize that not all of their life projects are going to pan out. Their work is ordinary, if not mediocre. They failed to rock the world. In fact they perceive the world as having left them behind; and they’re resentful. They think all the opportunities they screwed-up or are screwing-up are going to others who don’t deserve them. The Others. Reverse discrimination has become their mantra. They need a wall to hold back the non-existent flood of job-usurpers. They are the aggrieved, the newly oppressed, the whiners. It’s perhaps ironic that they should rally behind a self-alleged winner who’s claim to celebrity is the line, “You’re fired.”

Trump offers no realistic solutions. He has no handle on truth or reason. If he's caught in a lie he'll double down on it, ride the media wave it generates and when it dies down he'll say something else stupid, or wrong, or outrageous, or all three. Yet it doesn’t matter. The people behind him don't care for reason, wouldn't know the truth if it bit them in the ass and they no longer believe there are any solutions that will work for them. The only thing left to them is their resentment and their anger; and no one is going to take that away from them. They love anyone who can sustain that resentment within them; anyone who can help them maintain that anger. That’s what Trump rallies are all about. That’s what his candidacy is about. That’s why his campaign is so successful. He maintains their anger and resentment with outrageous insults, falsehoods and lies.

What’s amazing to me about Trump is the simplicity of his language. He talks to his supporters as if they were children as he plays to their fears. To those of us on the outside it seems as if he’s just telling them a scary bedtime story: There’s a nasty nasty woman just outside your door named Hillary. (The children’s ears prick up) She’s not a good person. (The children frown). Bad. Very very bad. (Their eyes go wide) She’s coming after your guns. (Some of the children cry) She’s going to tax you. (Boo). Hey, this is a good looking crowd. (Yeah, clap-clap) You know that Hillary is ugly? I’m sorry but it’s true. So true. Ugly (laughter and applause).

This is what passes for a campaign of substance among right-wing Americans today, at least among those who are falling in line behind this orange demagogue - which is going to be pretty much the whole Republican establishment.

I cannot believe how vacant and stupid this man is. An article where Trump claims we have more oil than opec, more natural gas than Russia, Iran, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia combined, that he's going to revive the coal industry, and prevent the EPA from controlling our lives because markets are a beautiful thing.....

Edit: For those who are not going to read it (understandable..we can't read every link), he also said he would withdraw us from the Paris climate accord because he does not want to give foreign bureaucrats power over how we use our land. A quoted energy consultant says that the signing of the accord really encouraged 185 other countries to cut emissions in ways we were already doing...of course, what he did not say is that if Trump limits the functions of the epa, perhaps we will not continue on that path and withdrawing from the accord would allow us to increase emissions.

I wonder if the United States is regressive enough to actually vote Trump into the White House??

Electoral demographics say there simply aren't enough angry White men to elect Trump to the presidency, which is why personally I believe the Trump candidacy is a media driven phenomenon.

I sense a HUGE blowout happening in November.

Who had bigger rallies in 2008 than John McCain with Sarah Palin by his side??
Didn't count for a thing once the votes were counted in the general election.

I think it's a definite possibility. Angry white men are an important part of the constituency, but also the worshipers of celebrity, the stupid and the Hillary haters (or the Socialist haters - if the dems nominate Bernie). The Republican party elite are mostly going to fall in line. They have to. Their jobs and the party are at stake. I hope you're right and there's a blowout in November in favor of Hillary. But we can't let our guard down.

I cannot believe how vacant and stupid this man is.

The man is compartmentalized. He's shrewed when it comes to branding and marketing and he's an absolute genius at knowing how to reneging on contracts and get away with it. But he's stupid at pretty much everything else, although neither he nor his acolytes know it. I don't think Trump is as stupid or as hate filled as his followers. The man needs attention. He's a black-hole, a bottomless pit. You can throw as much adoration and attention into it as you please and it will always be empty. He is willing to exploit, defile, manipulate, hurt and do anything for more and more attention. http://nyti.ms/1WmxlV0

It's going to come down to who gets out the vote. You simply cannot ignore the high disapproval ratings. Trump's is much higher but he has a core of supporters that are obviously passionate...whereas all the passion on the left is voting for Sanders. We don't know how many Sanders supporters will pull the lever for Hillary when she gets the nomination. There may in fact be Sanders supporters who will vote Trump just on spite.
A lot of regular establishment voters may just say "fuck it" and stay home.

As for your last sentence - McCain had some big rallies...but all the passion in the country was obviously for Obama. No one really was excited about McCain...he get's angry but most of the time he just looked tired...people only got a little worked up for his campaign when Palin entered the picture late in the game. She was hot but bubble headed, and it was an obvious, desperate Hail Mary pass thrown with a very weak arm.

I registered to vote for the very first time in my life, and I am voting for Trump. He is a fellow NY'er and I love chaos.
