Donald Trump

[john3333]

Don't forget that while all of us were paying taxes, Donald Trump, one of the richest people on the planet, hasn't payed any taxes in years. Meanwhile, Clinton would've made the economy work for everybody not just those at the top AND made the minimum wage a living wage.

In case you hadn't noticed, the totalitarian, nation-destroying EU is breaking up. Brexit and Trump wouldn't have happened without the freedom- and alternative-giving power of social media. That America is a paragon of freedom is a myth. Much remains to be done to free us from the cruel iron fist of corporate and international finance rule.

The EU is very much like the Hotel California; it's not so easy to leave. They will soon have another Brexit vote, and another, until the people come up with the right answer. The EU has a long history of doing just that, but even if Britain does manage to leave, the EU is not going anywhere.

I didn't say America is a paragon of freedom but that it was the last bastion of freedom, big difference. Despite the growing police state, the US is still much freer than any other country in the world with respect to individual rights; the kind that matters most to me and most Americans.

I think you probably would agree with that given your other posts, but to some of the other self-hating Americans, fresh out of our neo-marxist indoctrination centers, I want to add that "capitalism is not crapitalism" but socialism is s***.

American rights are the rights of a free man; Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Religion, the Right to Bear Arms, and the implied right to be left alone. All of these are far stronger in the US than in most any other country in the world. Socialist nanny states promote the freedoms of a slave; the right to food, the right to medicine, right to housing, etc. These are the same rights given to farm animals. We support the freedom of opportunity and the freedom of expression. Socialist countries support the freedom from want and the freedom from being offended.

I won’t bother to get into the hereditary class structure in socialist Europe, where proper breeding and school ties are much more important to break into the higher levels of the society than here in America.

Good analogy. Also explains why mass slaughter is never far away.

Here is a good compilation of Andrew Breitbart explaining cultural Marxism:

lol, though it is a bit f'upped I am laughing about genocide

I never really watched Breitbart before. Interesting and entertaining guy. Sad he passed.

As long as people debate jobs as the main issue, politics will continue in its irrelevancy.

I can pass legislation that bans all backhoes. That'll create a lot of jobs, as thousands excavate the new mall site with metal spoons.

Well said.

Let's find somebody with Trump's persona with Ron Paul's mind. Anybody you can think of?

Ben Shapiro

Ben Shapiro

Has quite a resume. Would be interested in tuning on to what he's been saying and writing.

 

[dbh25]

Of course I am. This site should help you out: Democrats and Republicans Switched Platforms - Fact or Myth?
This is just one of the many tricks of Republicans.

How did you find out about Thomas DeMichele (http://factmyth.com/author/tomd/) and why do you take as fact, statements like:
"Was Lincoln a Democrat or Republican? He was a Republican by name, but today we would consider him a socially left-leaning Democrat."

But he lacks one quality: the appearance of being dumb enough to be fodder for ridicule on late night TV. Donald has a quirky way of talking, and people can poke fun at him, but that makes him closer to people like "he's one of us." GW Bush can't pronounce "nuclear" correctly, Bill Clinton can't keep his pants on, but Barack is different. He appears smart, but he's black and he can't build mojo by acting as stupidly as the white presidents.

Shapiro is Jewish, but Bernie Sanders has somewhat broken that ceiling, and Bernie is a human Big Bird. What quirk does Shapiro have to make him electable?

Yes he was only 43. He appears to have been the target of a lot of leftist hate and lawsuits which may have taken their toll.

Milo Yiannopoulos seems to laugh more, and maybe the Brits aren't as savage. Paul Joseph Watson has his editing powers and like-minded colleagues. Bernie Chapin is resigned to be a man who goes his own way, and Rocking Mr E has his supporters, but all these people are saints for freedom and Western values, who take the slings and arrows for us!

They have helped to pave the way for Brexit and Trump and hopefully more to come in Italy, France, Netherlands etc.

The problem IMHO is that the pendulum always swings too far. You can get screwed from both sides of the aisle.

@Queequeg My thoughts exactly. Skip to the 2 hour mark and listen.

This is what every dem or republican needs to hear. This talk blew my mind. I don't know if I have ever heard someone speak with such wisdom about why things are happening the way they are.

This is what got me interested in him, and couldn't stop watching once I started, haha. He is smart, sharp and knows his stuff. There are so many dumb people in media, it's incredibly refreshing.


He's great because he calls out both dem's and republicans.

You think Ben Shapiro is refreshing?

I guess that makes Milo Yiannopoulos a groundbreaking hero.

Maybe the attraction to "trigger warnings" denotes a lack of metabolic energy, and thus virtually no stress tolerance to divergent opinion.

Wow. That was intense. I agree, this would be good for both sides to watch. Obviously at this point in time I think the left may need it a bit more. During W's presidency you could have said the same about the right.

I was flipping through the comment section and liked this one in particular regarding the Canadian law on enforced pronoun use: "the pronouns i recognize are "he," "she," and "dipshit" and i'll choose the one you most resemble"

Why did I get the sense that this was closer to The Blair Witch Project than The Hunt For Bigfoot?
