    "The America We Desire"
    - Donald Trump (2000)

    In the year BEFORE 9/11 The Donald writes:

    “I really am convinced we’re in danger of the sort of terrorist attacks that will make the bombing of the Trade Center look like kids playing with firecrackers. No sensible analyst rejects this possibility, and plenty of them, like me, are not wondering if but when it will happen.”
    Then The Donald makes a prediction of how this may unfold, according to his moronic little brain:

    “One day we’re told that a shadowy figure with no fixed address named Osama bin-Laden is public enemy number one, and U.S. jetfighters lay waste to his camp in Afghanistan. He escapes back under some rock, and a few news cycles later it’s on to a new enemy and new crisis.”

    LOL, one wonder's how the utter moron somehow managed to scrape together $8 billion or so....

    The Great thing about electing The Donald, is he's full of shit. Yet, somehow seems to understand the idiocracy the Government Schooling system has devolved the functionally illiterate voting public into. I bet he has a high EQ score.


    -o-

    Trump embodies the American zeitgeist, circa 2015 – its virtues, its vulgarity, its inchoate mixture of common sense and incoherence. You may not like Donald Trump, for any one of a number of reasons, but anti-interventionists have to give him some credit for opening up the presidential debate to a critique of US foreign policy that hasn’t been seen or heard since the Ron Paul campaign.

    Born on third and thought he hit a triple. The guy inherited millions.

    And by the way, there is no apostrophe in the word "wonders".

    Thanks to the financialization of our hyper-regulated money markets, people like Trump will be bailed out anyway. That's the nice thing about owning Tax Chattel. And hey, there's always the Welfare Plantations.

    I do think Trump has an advantage added from his wealth in the idea that cannot be bought (no I haven't researched it much but my opinion should be more just an obvious thought.)

    What he doesn't have, however, is sex appeal. Now if Trudeau was running for president...

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!!!

    Well, well.... Looks like 6th grade reading level Amoorika likes them some 4th grade level demagoguery. Just look at those numbers! Crushing! Looks like all that "Free" 100 billion dollar a year Givernment schooling IS getting one thing right. That much is for sure. No argument there.

    I wonder just who a POTUS The Trump will 'Redistribute for the Good of the Roads' from first? Not the 0.1%, no, they and the Top Banksters will be taken care of - their cull won't roll around for decades. No, I think he'll go for the SlumLords. Yup, a 99% 'tax' on the SlumLords will be fun to watch. You know, for the Good of the Roads. Hey, and I wonder who POTUS The Trump will want to Invade... errrr, I mean Defend and Freedom Fries from next? Think it will be Iran? KSA? Think of all the Jerbs that'll be created 'Defending' the USA from Russia or Europe or China..... And the Gawds only know the American MIC has been waiting to nuke a city for a LOOONG long time. They can't wait to start dropping nukes. Wasting a trillion or so making planes that are useless is fun, but that's peanuts really. No, nuking cities - that's were all the prosperity comes from. And hey, maybe if we're lucky the psychopaths in Giverment will start WWIII. Think how much fun THAT will be! Getting a letter from a sociopath in Givernment telling you where you and/or your children are to line up for 'Duty' defending The Roads. You know, because the Iranians and Chinese and Europeans and Russians - they hate us for our freedom fries.... and stuff.

    Just stop and imagine that for a minute. One day your Givernment is defending you from scary scary Apple Inc or some scary shampoo The Koch Brothers made and then the next day you're sent a letter telling you where you and your family are to line up for duty in anther Phony War some sociopath thought up while drinking an overpriced cappuccino in Washington. How's THAT sound to you? Some incompetent sociopath in Givernment sending your children overseas to 'Defend the Nation' in another made up Phony War? Sound good to you? Maybe an Economist at the Fed told some other idiotic it'd be 'Good for the Economy'. You know, like that Nobel Prize Wienner Krugman suggested. Sound good?

    But hey - FREE University. FREE Roads. FREE Healthcare. FREEEEEEEE and MOOOOARRRRR..... AND you're weak, pathetic, helpless against Apple Inc and The Koch Brothers Shampoooooo.

    You NEED Givernment Nanny State to protect you and give you FREE and MOAR.

    This all got me to thinking about 'compulsory' voting. You know, where the 1 in 5 functional illiterate Government School GRADUATE, ticks the box next to the face they like the best. Maybe we could even insert a few computer generated 'idealized' faces just to see if one wins POTUS based purely on looks. Oh, hey, and I see The Patriot Act hit it's 14th year anniversary this week - Yay Statism!
    Mission Complete, LOL.

    Thank Gawds for the Amoorikan Givernment.

    Too funny.

    Here's an interesting comment I came across (I'm going to presume this is from a 'Conservative') while reading about the GOP 'Debate'.
    Even GOP Conservatives Feel The Burn

    Considering the MSM has decided to wipe the floor with Sanders and tell the functionally illiterate that between baseball games they need to tick the box next to Clinton's face - so, maybe that should be Bernie Sanders new slogan?

    Go full Retard!
    Bern Down The House!

    It kind of has a nice ring to it. Something a functional illiterate could get behind. Instead of Bernie Sanders face, just put a picture of a burning house!

    Well, that was quick.

    The very next day: Our elected CONmander in Chief is sending 18 year old Citizens OF the State to Iraq, to die in 'defence' of the tax farm. Yes, because sending kids (some of whom can probably barely read and write) exactly to the spot where the Russian military is dropping bombs is a smart idea. Well, I suppose it's smart if you were hoping to instigate WWIII. What? two decades of losing in Iraq not good enough anymore?

    Land of the Fleeced
    Home of the Slave

    Here's crazy ole' Racist Ron Paul's take on things (yes, that f*cking Libertarian jackoff hasn't died yet, arsehole - those Libertarians destroyed the economy don't you know? Free-market sociopaths, as if the ability to freely trade with other free people with sound money and law ever did any good).

    We Must Oppose Obama's Escalation in Syria and Iraq!

    I'll be curious to hear what The Donald thinks of all this..... I seem to recall something about molten glass something or other.... couldn't quite catch it over the cheer and bloodlust of the functionally illiterate voting masses.

    Anyway, from that Kook Crazy ol' Racist Paul-Tard:

    It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom at Disney World -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish for lack of vacations in Florida.”
    -- Abraham Lincoln, November (1863), National Cemetery at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania


    December 7th, 1941 -- a date which will live in infamy -- the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan. Long lines in the amusement park exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory, and our interests are in grave danger. With confidence in our airlines, with the unbounding determination of our people to visit Disney World, we will gain the inevitable triumph -- so help us God"
    -- Franklin Delano Roosevelt's, December 8 (1941), Pearl Harbor


    And one of the great goals of this nation's war is to restore public confidence in the airline industry and to tell the traveling public, get on board, do your business around the country, fly and enjoy America's great destination spots. Go down to Disney World in Florida, take your families and enjoy life the way we want it to be enjoyed.”
    -- THE President of the United States of America, George Walker Bush Junior, September 27 (2001), O'Hare International Airport, Chicago, Illinois


    I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.”

    I'll leave it to you to determine which of these were real quotes.

    "The question is should the Fed raise rates? They are not raising them because Obama has asked them not to raise them. In my opinion, he wants to get out of office, because we're in a bubble and when those rates are raised, a lot of bad things are going to happen. In my opinion Janet Yellen is highly political and she's not raising rates for a very specific reason: because Obama told her not to because he wants to be out playing golf in a year from now and he wants to be doing other things and he doesn't want to see a big bubble burst during his administration."

    -- The Donald, Trump Tower, 3 November (2015)


    --o--
    Looks like The Donald wants the Bubble popped good before he takes the reins and leads us into WWIII (why, just think of all the Jerbs!). Or, alternatively, if The Bubble (Oh, I mean "THE" Great Recovery from "THE" Great Recession) doesn't pop on O-blah-blah's watch, The Donald can blame him for it when it does. Oh, but I'm sure some chump with $8 billion or so doesn't know shee-it from shin-o-la.

    Hmmm..... I wonder from whom The Donald will 'redistribute' for the 'Good of the Roads' from first?

    On a side note, I see Democratic Fascist B.Sanders is, unsurprisingly, being left in Hitlary's dust. Damn! We were just "THIS" close to having free healthcare, free food, free roads, free university, free vacations, free free and moar free. If only it weren't for those Kids and their pesty Dog!


    Poor America, we can never have nice things.....

    The Donald's is smarter and more educated than his comments alone would lead one to believe. He knows full well that he he's lying. He's saying what he needs to say to get right wing nut votes.

    Donald THE Progressive -vs- Milton Friedman the Classical Liberal



    Donald Trump seems to be at least as much the Democratic Communist as is B Sanders.


    See: Sony says Brazil's $1,850 PlayStation 4 price "is not good for the PlayStation brand
    See: Nintendo Will No Longer Sell Consoles or Games in Brazil

    Progressive Communists see an electronics industry and Magic Think it can be transplanted from China to the USSA. That isn't possible. There wouldn't BE an iPhone if B Sanders had his way. We wouldn't HAVE the internet we have today. Just as we wouldn't have thriving Gaming Industry if it were up to the Progressive Socialists of Brazil. If it were up to Brazilians, there wouldn't BE a PlayStation. Sure, a very very very SMALL number of Brazilian Laborer's have Jerbs. Big to do. It comes at a cost to the entire Gaming Industry in Brazil. All poor Brazilians have to pay the price for this idiotic Democratic so-called "Socialism" monetary policy. If Gaming were up to Brazilians, there wouldn't even be those very small number of Jerbs, because Sony would go bust. Worse still, you can be KILLED by the State for buying and selling a f*cking gaming consul! Imaging resisting arrest, refusing to give up your property and refusing to be put in a State-run rape cage. You would be shot, probably until dead.

    THIS is what Bernie is selling you. Magic Thinking. This is the "Democratic" Socialism Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump want to bring us. The Progressive Paradise where everything costs 5 times more than you will ever afford.

    As for The Donald, he's simply a Demagogue. Demagoguery sells well to functionally illiterate Debt Salves. Expect even worse in the decades to come. Culminating in the economic reality to accompany it.

    Y'know, a major part of the standard media campaign operation currently being promulgated by the rightwing-military-corporate-authoritarian political faction in the US is a continual and persistent and well-financed campaign to present Trump and Sanders as somehow equivalent or similar in their approach and appeal.

    Which would not be the first time the resident "libertarian" has posted direct propaganda feed from the most authoritarian faction in US politics.

    I've listened to B. Sanders for years. Long before he decided to run for POTUS. He is certainly a "Democratic" Socialist. Which is to say, a National Fascist. Which is why he's always talking about 'bringing the Jerbs back to America'. That's Nationalism. Not humanism - it's Nationalism. Sure, it's not Jews he's blaming - instead it's Asians. Yes, never mind all those damn yellow slanty-eyed people or their livelihood (whom would have starved to death if Sanders' had his way in the 70s). Never mind them, they're 'Slaves' working in 'Slave Factories' - and WE want those Slave factories here in the USA! Oh, and never mind it's FREE Americans freely choosing to buy those electronics made in Japan, HongKong, China and Taiwan. No, never mind that - we need a tariff so we can have 'fair' trade. Because me buying a 70" LG TV made in Korea for $800 isn't 'fair'. It would be 'fair' if I paid $8000 and bought it made in a factory in the USA...

    Sander's has been pitching this bullshit since back in the 1970s only then it was Japan, Taiwan and HongKong. Now it's China. If it were up to Sanders, there wouldn't be an electronic industry, because only the rich could afford the electronics. Much like the $1850 PS4 made in Brazil.

    Take a look at the state of robotics. ALL that money is going to replace workers that otherwise could have low-skilled jobs. Why? Because people like Sanders want to push the price of labor-hours up and then whine when companies don't want to buy as much of it. People like Sanders like the Magic Central Planners at the FRBN, but then seem confused when 2% destroys the lives of the working poor. Does he blame himself? No! He blames Chinese for making things too cheaply. How f*cking asinine is that?! If it weren't for the Chinese the poor in America would be MUCH POORER.


    As for Trump AND Sanders being two peas in a pod, if you have an argument that Trump is not as much a Progressive Socialist as Sanders, present it.
    Because as I listen to Trump, he sounds like Bernie. Probably for the exact same reasons, minus the Magic Thinking. Although, Trump may or may not believe his own tripe.
