Finding Pearls Of Wisdom In The Donald’s Trumperbolic Campaign

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Authored by Ben Tanosborn,

I’ve just received an interesting query from Mingo, a long-standing European journalist friend and expert on all-things-Afghan… someone whose acquaintanceship dates back to the early days of America’s involvement in Afghanistan.  Someone, I might add, who did prove to have in 2004 a clearer vision of what was to happen in that country than most, if not all, military experts, media gurus and politicians in the US.  My writings at that time can attest to that.

Mingo’s question is about the perception, he claims, Europeans have on US’ current state of the 2016 presidential election, and what he’s calling “the phenomenon Trump.”  His incredulity as to the number of possible followers Trump is said to have (if accurately reflected by the polling) seems to match the incredulity by much of America’s media, or of career politicians sucking on Washington’s udder.  “How can ‘that many’ Americans take seriously an arrogant charlatan and be swept away by ridiculous and undisguised hyperbole,” is a question that not just Mingo raises, but one that many have been asking for weeks since Donald Trump decided to enter presidential politics.

But it isn’t catchy phrases seasoned with political hyperbole that have been coming out of Donald Trump’s mouth; it’s not just exaggerations sliding out for emphasis or effect.  The short, catchy statements coming out of the leading Republican candidate are not the expected quantifiable or qualifiable exaggerations we are accustomed to hearing from the current political version of yesteryear’s traveling medicine man.  Hyperbole has been elevated to a new literary status more in line with the stature of its charismatic and billionaire originator: trumperbole.  If Trump’s $3 billion wealth can be subjectively inflated to $10 billion, why not just pump hyperbole and call it trumperbole or, in similar fashion, reclassify trump as an adjective and give it comparative and superlative forms: trumper, trumpest, anyone?  Well, these days in the US, we are seeing our celebrated and self-proclaimed potential savior, Donald Trump, as the non-politician politician proudly donning capitalist airs and shouting the trumpest trumperbole.

Irony of ironies, however, is the amount of truth that can come out of the mouth of this political babe as he tears apart or diminishes the political persona of GOP adversaries.   Not just his party’s peer candidates but other Republican politicians as well who dare stand in the way: Jeb Bush, Lindsey Graham, John McCain, Scott Walker, Marco Rubio, Mike Huckabee, Rick Perry, Rand Paul… all have been cut to sub-Trump size, even ridiculed; while others have not been dignified with a Trump honorable mention, Ted Cruz being the exception with an interesting and secretive question mark.  Be that as it may, the entire group of Republican presidential contenders has been irremediably diminished to a sickly and unworthy flock of possible standard bearers for the GOP.

But the Republicans are experiencing more than just the political castration of top party figures, often comically so by someone who lacks any orthodoxy or practicality which favors tradition and fights radical change.  Out of the mouth of this political babe, there have been two gems of political wisdom which are likely to hurt Republicans far more than Democrats.  Trump’s contention that politicians in Washington are being bought by special interests is no breaking news announcement, but his underlining and writing of this fact in bold letters readily does away with the mockery that ours is a democracy, or that our government is in any way, shape or form a government for the people… only for those who can pay the entry fee.  The other gem has to do with iniquity in taxation, likely to make him few friends in the gallery of speculators in hedge funds.

Donald Trump, I could tell Mingo, is no phenomenon or wonder, only someone money has immunized and given a suit of armor under our capitalist system; a person with true elite-freedom.  Little wonder that few people in the media, or politicians, are willing to alienate him or, much less, tackle him head on when there is the prospect of a litigious wrecking ball waiting in the wings.

It is precisely this view by many that Trump is impervious to any type of fear that makes him an attractive advocate or champion of causes which people would otherwise keep hidden within themselves.  Nativists can now show their passion thanks to Trump’s leadership; and so can racial-mongers; and white nationalist activists; and a few others.  They can all come out of the closet and feel safe.

I could also tell Mingo something else.  The Republican Party is running the danger, if Donald Trump becomes its nominee, of having its candidate become the counterpart of George McGovern (the liberal candidate) in 1972.  For those then around, we can revisit those numbers and look at the prospect of Trump becoming Republicans’ McGovern.  [McGovern had just 37.5 percent of the popular vote and only carried Massachusetts and the District of Columbia in the Electoral College (520-17).]

No; Trump is no phenomenon, just a figurehead for those with closeted anger trying to resist unstoppable change in the world and resent their loss of power.

"I like what Trump says". "He tells the truth". "He says what we are all thinking".

Of course, he doesn't say anything of substance. Oher than kicking out mexicans and making them pay for a wall, what other plans, policies, and philosphies has this man came up with that people love?

Invadind Syria (without congressional approval) and invading Syri and sending in our oil companies.

Longer waiting periods and banning 'assualt' weapons.

Using government powers to steal people's houses and land.

If this is what y'all like, America (and the world) is in deeper tahn I thought. (and I thought we were screwed already)

“How can ‘that many’ Americans take seriously an arrogant charlatan and be swept away by ridiculous and undisguised hyperbole,”

 

I couldn't have said it better myself. the answer is because most americans are fucking stupid, pretty simple. I really don't even know why i comment on trump threads anymore. Most of you guys have read my diatribes on him before. If you want to support a statist authoritarian who is promising to grow the aspects of govt that ZHers claim to hate the most, I almost hope you get what you wish for, so that when this whole clown show of a country comes unglued, you guys can revel in the fact that you helped make it happen. You will be like all those liberals who were just SURE that obama was going to have the most transparent admin ever, roll back the police state, and end all those middle eastern wars.

 

Heres my prediction if trump is elected- he accomplishes NOTHING meaningful on "getting rid of all the illegals" since it is an ECONOMIC problem that will only be solved by getting rid of the huge incentives people have to sneak up here(which I am all for getting rid of). nor does he "take their oil" in the middle east. But he WILL massively grow the police state trying to chase down illegals, and these thousands of new DHS agents will find PLENTY of ways to infringe on everyone elses liberty as well. While I stated he will fail in his intentions to" take their oil and make them pay for it" he will accomplish starting yet another war that makes us less safe, costs thousands of americans lives, a million or so dead natives in the middle east, and another 2-4 trillion on the national credit card.

 

To paraphrase HLM, I believe all of you deserve to get what you want, and get it good and hard

He doesn't pander to the Hispanics. He makes it clear he intends to clear the country of illegals.

 

He doesn't pander to the blacks. But he does offer them the job support services that have been given to the illegals, and gives them the same hopes he gives everyone else.

 

He doesn't pander to the gay community. He doesn't even touch it, nor seems to consider it an issue that is his to address.

 

Hell, he doesn't pander to special interests at all, as he is only concerned at this time with the major crises that endanger all of us.

 

He sticks up for Christians, is not ashamed to say he is one, but he doesn't pander to the evangelicals by acting as if God 'lights a path for him'. 

 

He doesn't pander to the polls nor even seem to care if what he says may be 'misunderstood'. He says it as he feels it. PC be damned!

Trump, believe it or not (or at least the Trumpening itself) was predicted by the Fourth Turning book / theory.

 

It's called te Regeneracy and it is a resurgence of Nationalism and Civic Pride which grips a nation that has long

despaired of ever finding any real solutions to any of the problems they have faced.

 

Strip away the negative connotations, and with a few caveats - you can figure that this is 1935 and we are Germany

and a really Popular politician has exploded out of nowhere to take center stage. Note I DO NOT consider Trump

anything like Hitler but I think his popularity and willingness to lead are a phenomenon that we have seen many many

times in history before.

 

A People, tired of having shithead weasels for leaders are about to rise up - after all, what do they have to lose ?

 

You're going to be able to vote for Biden or Trump in the Fall of 2016. Is that really a choice ?

 

AND - I will further point out - Trump, the resurgence of the men's rights, GamerGate, the fight back against PC-ism (finally !)

these 'movements' are ALL inter-related and part of the same changes that are part of the Great Pushback.

 

It's long overdue

“the mockery that ours is a democracy” 

News Flash to author…

The US is real democracy in the truest sense of the word..

It’s not supposed to be, but the 17th Amendment converted the republic designed by the founders into a bought and paid for but majority (bought and paid for, too) elected Senate, Executive and consequentially appointed federal court system.

“The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money.”

Yes and that brings me to my point.

What do you call his hyperbole once he gets elected and makes it reality?

When he says he would build a literal wall between us and Mexico I fully believe him and support the decision and execution with the implicit guarantee of guard towers manned with mini guns and rocket launchers. Maybe flame throwers too, in a tunnel which comprises the only viable border crossing perhaps. yes a tunnel lined with natty gas flame throwers; a kiln of sorts. Don't like who is coming through well drop the gates and light the torches then bulldoze the remains back into a ditch or whatever in mexico, problem solved.

Or we could just fucking annex it down to the panama canal finally FFS. We been screwing around down there for over a hundred years already. Seriously, all this military and nothing to show for it. Trump should win one for the home team. I should be able to drive my Tesla from cupertino to panama unmolested. Get on it Don.

Trump is a billionaire,  from a very very privaleged upbringing. 

I seriously doubt he would do anything against his Bretherton billionaire buddies. 

He calls himself the Donald too..Good luck with all that ,  " The Donald" supporters, 

how about "The Terminator", if he drops out?

Nothing but bad and worse choices this time around.

We need someone to make the right decisions for our society in general and forget the special interests that the PC minded have elevated to an imaginary importance.

The fact that you are the 'best looking horse in the glue factory' doesn't mean you deserve my support. Yes, I find donald trump amusing, but no, I don't want him ruling over me and I will actively try to convince others that he is a bad idea. I am done supporting what others deem to be the lesser of two evils. You do that, you are still supporting evil

realmoney2015: I said a very similar thing in another thread here and got severely downvoted.  It's true though, Trump supports govrnment control over every single aspect of our lives and these dumb fucking lemmings support him.  "Damn Mexicans, all their fault, let's build a wal".  wow, bang up idea Donald.  I've got an easier way - abolish every single form of welfare and entitelements, then we'll see how many illegals come here.  Not to mention it'd get rid of a gigantic chunk of government.  Surprised most people here like him cause he sucks Israel's cock, too, and wants the US military to act as a proxy for Israel.  Oh wait, I'm speaking logically, better shut up now before the "took er jobs" retard Trump supporters chime in.

Like all consummate politicians, Trump "promises the Earth" without any of the details. Build the "Wall"? Not so long ago when the US was demanding another "wall" be pulled down, "in the interests of fairness and justice" - short memories much??

Charge Mexico for the wall? You'll be lucky. International Law will stop that little idea in its tracks.

Protectionism?? Others can play that game too; others with the manufacturing capacity the US literally gave away for "Immediate gratification" quick profits.

As for his support of Bibi - he really thinks the man illuminates those behind him. If you suspect the Israeli Security Services have trained your "Police" now, with Trump in charge rest assured that Israel will become THE major training contractor for your new-style "Policing WITHOUT the consent of the People" brand of law enforcement.

Agree.  I like the discussion Trump is bringing and the way he does it without letting the usual PC garbage bother him.   Still the groupie mentallity of people who should look at the whole picture is frightening.

We all want the corruption to be exposed and guilty politicians charged, tried, and jailed but Trump has always been part of their corruption with his money.  He admits that himself.

So many Americans are falling in behind him and are acting just like the Obamabots that elected the worst POTUS in American history. 

Politicians lie. Trump is now a politician too.  Can he be trusted?

There's a "war on women" and "America is racist", no Republican candidate can fight these demographics, this article itself calls any right wingers or libertarian aligned individuals misogynist, racist, homophobes; so bitch about trump all you want, but he's a fucking gift to your side.

You might as well realise this and get something meaningful done.

Get something meaningful done? Like what?

-Print more money and keep the Federal Reserve going. Yup, we know he would do that. We know he cares about himself above all else. His wealth is in real estate which is propted up due to the feds bubble blowing schemes.

-Ban assualt weapons. Yup, he'll do that as well.

-Steal people's land. Yup he has already tried tht BEFORE getting into office.

-Keep the corporate flow of money gloing through DC. He said that he has bought both 'sides'. He will continue to expand his deep pockets. Even though he is rich, he is greedy and will accept more money at our expense. He also wants to take Syria's oil and give it American oil companies.

-Kill more of youth. He wants to send our troops to war with Syria to get their oil. We all know Trump and his cronies wont be there fighting.

-Create more enemies for America. We wont bring our troops home and won't stop the bombing campaigns which create 100s of 'terrorists' everyday.

-We wont end the drug war. Even though his pet issue is immigration from Mexico, he won't bring up the failed drug war.

So really all we would get accomplished is building a wall. That sounds pretty meaningless. Until we end the Fed, nothing meaningful will get done.

So please do not ask me to protect your interests and then become horribly disappointed by what happens next. I don't give a fuck about Trump.. I care about honesty and transparency of which he is currently shining a bright light. Too many for too long have been intimidated and coerced to accept the politically correct notion of self sacrifice for multiculturalism and "equality" that has drained our life force. We watch and listen to those who are supposed to be representing a conservative perspective continuously defer to this same pressure of "consensus" of the political correct, to the threats of labels like racist and bigot and hater of the poor and environment.

What is called for is people who are willing to put their names and fortunes on the line rather than standing in line to receive their names and fortunes at the cost to American citizens. Regardless of his ideology, Trump is seemingly willing to put his name and future on the line for what he believes. We need more like him. Let's see if any other candidates with a more desirable agenda will do the same.

I'm pretty vocal, too, and will not stand for bullshit anymore.  I've had it.

As far as Trump is concerned, I find it amusing that he's shining a light on the bullshit that is politics.  Beyond that I have no interest in him.  I won't be voting in any national election until this government is destroyed, the MIC is destroyed, and the Police State is destroyed.  Until then it's all a farce.

crap article. there is no such thing as unstoppable change. this anger isn't closeted. its pretty open and apparent

A powerful elitist oligarchy is pulling every last string, bribing every petty official, breaking laws, pushing through unwanted legislation, demanding votes when they think they'll win, ignoring results if they lose, ignoring voters, buying/coercing the courts and politicians........in the name of creating thier vision of utopia. an iron fascist fist in a socialist glove.

 

our rights are being trampled and we're pissed off about it. trump offers at least a modicum of hope for change, and at the very least a big FU to the establishment of both parties who've been charged by the elites with maintaining this fraud democracy.

I can't help but see a parallel between Trump and Teddy Roosevelt in the election of 1912.  In a nutshell, Wilson (Democrat) was in trouble against Taft (GOP), so the banksters got Roosevelt to run third party - which divided the conservative vote. Wilson won - and oversaw the creation of that great cancer, the Federal Reserve.

trump offers at least a modicum of hope for change, and at the very least a big FU to the establishment of both parties who've been charged by the elites with maintaining this fraud democracy.

Once elected, he wouldn't be an outsider anymore. I have yet to see a candidate fail to forget every promise he ever made once elected. In office he has a new constituency - the bureaucracy under his charge. If he goes against them, they'll either kill him or run him out of office as they did to Kennedy and Nixon.

What I am though is someone who recognizes that opening the borders to millions of poor, uneducated workers is a receipe for disaster. We have immigration laws in this country and if we are not going to enforcethem then that should be a policy that is debated in the open. Then he has the balls to imply that questioning the intelligence of this policy of nonenforcement or cheering for a candidate that does question this policy means we are racist. Fuck him. 

There is a hidden immigration agenda that both parties are following and the public isn't being told what that is or why. The last thing we need as a nation is to ignore the consequences of unfettered open borders on our culture, heritage and employment opportunities in the future. Fuck this douche bag.

I just don't like seeing people taken for a ride by this guy, and I don't like seeing how people seem willing to support what is essentially growing the police state to massive new heights just based on one mans unfullfillable promise to rid the nation of the illegals. Because as Ive said before, THE MOST important thing to do to get rid of this problem(don't think for one second Im dismissing the issue, Im not, and I feel just as frustrated as the rest of you) is to tear down the welfare state incentives for people to come here, and if you don't do that, no wall or especially an even bigger, more militarized police state, will solve this. However, the police will exist, and it will NEVER shrink back to its original size, and it WILL find new and improved ways to fuck ALL americans over

Quantum Statistics in Human Behavior

In school, built to serve capital interest payment, the past, you are taught general equations as a means of understanding behavior, which is exactly backwards. You want to begin with understanding and proceed to equations, which are situation specific, complex interaction of symptomatic derivatives.

Separation into identity is a function of relativity, DNA interaction over time generated in the case of life. What your brain sees is the past, and if you make decisions on that basis, you can only travel backwards. You want to project yourself forward, generally in the opposite direction, learning to navigate, employing the gravity with an inverse sail.

Because the pseudo-scientists begin with experimental equations to explain what they see, commonly confirmed with retro-statistics, projected forward (backward), they always end up with a self-fulfilling prophesy, much like Rasputin, who had the ear of Alexandra. What Rasputin did understand is that homeostasis will fix the body itself, if the cause of error is removed, which is artificial anxiety and all of its derivative symptoms interacting.

Breeding for the future is not about finding someone with the best credit score or inert assets and then handing your baby over to the empire for early childhood indoctrination. Replacing a male breadwinner at $100k with single female and single male at $40k each, who then ente4r a civil contract marriage for additional government conferred benefits, on the promise of equality and affirmative action, doesn’t end well. Both parent working part-time running a business has always outperformed every other system.

That Bell Curve is an average of averages, systematically removing the outliers from consideration, acting as a buffer in time, which can only implode with increasing costs. Humana are not costs; they are investments. The majority is always traveling toward the DNA churn pool, because the participants choose to join peer pressure groups as a means of avoiding the need to adapt, collective ignorance insurance, each event horizon with its own arbitrary language.

All the symptoms you see now are the same present in the USSR before it dissolved. Some women may have ‘liberated’ themselves from nature and joined the elite political class, but at the cost of imprisoning their sisters to increasing poverty and income inequality, just as the political males have done. In the ‘it takes a community to raise a child’ crowd, the individual may not be allowed to rise above the community, effectively making children economic slaves to the past, communism, what Russians call thieves in law.

The whole point of the politically correct, peer pressure group is to act as a rear guard, to protect its status, which protects the status of all layers above it, eliminating economic mobility, creating poverty and sentencing those in poverty to prison, beginning with denial of electronic credit in this iteration. Anyone not participating is deemed ‘unequally yoked,’ and must be punished, as an example to others, with system outcomes blamed upon individuals, so the system never changes.

Fortunately, the system works for you, if you let it. The reality of the distribution is that it is falling back in time, loading like a spring with left justification and the forward outliers are balancing to sustain the fulcrum. Whether the distribution moves relatively forward like a worm or bifurcates depends upon how much ‘work’ the majority puts in to do nothing but maintain the status quo, how determined it is to maintain its guiding superstition.

There is an equal charge between ‘protons’ and ‘electrons’ in the atom, separated into identity only by relativity, but they are not equal in number. That’s what those equations tell you. The simplification was adopted to get the simpletons from the atomic level, which they can’t see, to the mechanical level, which they can see. You don’t begin with a microscope or a telescope, or even a supercollider. You begin with understanding. Simple relativity tells you that there are speeds beyond light.

That proton is in a gravity sink, with a relatively long cycle and slow polling time. When it ‘looks’ or ‘feels,’ the electron is there. It pings and gets a ping mirrored back, but the electron location is a probability field. And, as we have demonstrated repeatedly, it only takes 10% of your time, outlier strength on the trailing side, S Cat, to convince the empire that you are there, and you can begin from anywhere in the distribution, because there is always a slot to fill, vacated by another.

There is only lack of opportunity in the communist regime. Look elsewhere, to develop your instincts. There are still great universities out there, if that’s what you want to do. I’m at one right now. Visit campuses and find a fit for you, distance from the black hole of gossip, in and out to measure gravity, and set your distance. Just because others choose stupid doesn’t mean that you have to give up on a great opportunity.

There is a season for all things. If you don’t like a challenge, collect a derivative check from government and complain about government, like the majority. You are only going to be paid to say that communism is democracy, which is why parents do not measure in money, but rather in NPV of DNA, and why the critters are so determined to learn the ‘secrets’ of DNA.

You don’t go to university, or a job, to get a piece of paper saying that you are an expert at regurgitating nonsense. You go to learn what is relative to you, to extend your limitations, and who knows, you may actually meet someone with similar and complimentary interests, maybe even a janitor. The politicians don’t give a rat’s behind about women’s health issues, but get paid to say so.

It just so happens that I have four daughters, and I threw them all into the pool at birth, much to the shock and consternation of the Kravitz ladies.

Trump stepped on a stage in front of hordes of cheering spectators and a sea of cell phones, launching into a description of Clinton's "big problems" and a reminder of the ongoing email scandal, saying, "You know when you look at what she's done and how she's done it and the servers and Huma - how about Huma?" he boomed. "So, Huma now is one of the people that it all sort of came through… Who is Huma married to? One of the great sleazebags of our time, Anthony Weiner. Did you know that?"

"So Huma is getting classified secrets. She's married to Anthony Weiner, who's a perv. No he is."

He continued his personal attacks on the couple by using hand motions and subtly referencing Weiner's sexting affair - the scandal that forced the former congressman to resign in 2011 and that sidelined his 2013 New York City mayor bid.

"If you think that Huma isn't telling Anthony, who she's probably desperately in love with, in all fairness to Anthony. Cause why else would she marry this guy? Can you believe it? Can't see straight."

"I knew before they caught him with the bing bing bing," Trump continued. "Right? And he was a bad guy then, it turned out that he was a really bad guy."

If Donald Trump did not exist, it would have been necessary to create him. As a matter of fact, he is a creation of this particular moment in time. The same can be said of Barack Obama. These two very different men share a common characteristic: neither of them would have been able to get anywhere near presidential politics in an earlier era. But the rapid decline of American society and cultural values have altered the requirements for the people's political representatives, who must now represent their fears, doubts and fetishes with increasing devotion or risk irrelevance.

If we wish for a better class of leader, we had better get to work on a better class of citizens.

Upgrade your internet service or change your meds man. Your double/triple posts are getting annoying. You left America because you could not make more than minimum wage here. I am happy you found success overseas. Enjoy your garden and paradise of a country before the neo nazis overrun you.

Hyperbole and pulling single facts out of your ass bare any coherent picture doesn't make an argument.

Tell us what school system is better than home schooling, if you want to go to extremes.
Enlighten us why you don't have a house built to the higher standard you prefer, in any location you choose.

A massive healthcare bill was passed and nobody who supported/voted for it could give you specifics about it. However, somehow Trump is required to give you complete specifics on every policy idea 5 months before the earliest primary. Now that's funny.

Don't forget the nihilist set that says voting doesn't matter, but then they expend energy to denounce a specific candidate.  FUDpuppies.

Indeed. The lame Sream media cannot even get a straighjt answer from Lois Lerner (IRS) and from Hillary and her private, bathroom closeted server. But Trump is supposed to show then granular blueprints.

Oh yeh wasn't Bill Clinton accused of 8 different rapes..beginning at Oxford Univ? Yet Trump calling Rosie O'Donnell a "dog" is a disqualifier?

Another fucking Trump Dumper.... they can get lost. These pricks don't understand that we like Trump because we're tired of elitist assholes, like this author, trying to tell us which of their losers we should vote for.

 

We'll damn well choose who we want to choose and we can't possibly do a worse job that the effete status quo-ers. If they do not understand the problem, and the attraction of what Trump is doing, then they are the problem. Certainly the last thing we need is observation and advice from country-less Europeans who no longer have any sovereignty because the elites have already convinced them to vote it all away.

(And howsabout the MSM Obamaberbole? -- "He was Godlike, looking down on us from the stage."   Or, the MSM Clintonberbole for Hillary -- " Is she the most qualified candidate for president, ever? She can make that argument!")

Done with Ruling Class politicians of both corrupt Parties. This little Republic will not survive if there's not an upheaval in the GOP; the Democrats, I fear, are lost forever.

I see Trump as a spark in dry tinder. As a marginalized TEA Party 'Hobbit', I'm throwing everything I can at the Establishment GOP. And I truly  hope Trump sets them ablaze.

All necklacing-like.

"You have not been treated fairly," Trump told the gathering Saturday. "You know, people talk about the tea party, and you talk about marginalized? At least I have a microphone where I can fight back. You people don't. The tea party people are incredible people. These are people who work hard and love the country and they get beat up all the time by the media."

At first, I thought Trump might be different but with a little more knowledge, I see he's the same as the others. He just has a bigger mouth.

Not very observant are you.

Irrespective of whether you agree with anything he says, he keeps saying things that offend the political and media establishment which no one else does.

Even more important, when they shriek their outrage he does not back down but goes further on the attack.  Name one other person on the US federal political scene who has done that in the last 2 decades.

Thanks Tylers for publishing this.  I asked myself "What do the European journalists who hate America think about Donald Trump?", and lo and behold, there it is in black and white.  They hate him, they actually hate him and think he's an artifact of jingoistic red-neck ignorant American yokels.  Who would have thought that would be the opinion of European anti-American journalists?  But Ben, you didn't have to go to someone named "Mingo" who knows all things Afghan to find out what Europeans think of American politics.  You could have asked John Kerry and he would have told you.  John Kerry would have told you "European journalists named Minog who are all things Afghan love me, John Kerry".  And Ben, the european well-loved John Kerry didn't do as bad as McGovern, but he still lost handily to George Bush.  Just goes to show you what journalists named Mingo who are all things afghan actually know about American politics.

I have no idea why those Americans who respond to polls like Donald trump 25% vs. 15% or 10% or 5% for the other guys ... and neither do you, obviously.  Ben Tanosborn wants to throw all people who express an opinion on Donald Trump into the same basket and that can't help but look stupid, as stupid as the rest of the press doing it looks.  Trump says some funny things, some cutting things, some obtuse things, and some stupid things ... but he has yet to win an election.  Ben's got him wiped out 49-1 in a general election by an unnamed (and hopefully criminally prosecuted) Demcratic contender before one vote has even been cast, and that's the most ignorant piece of journalism that you're likely to come across for a while.  The Tylers didn't post this piece because they agree with it, it's just another example of how the MSM reacts to things they hate: attribute ignorant thoughts to an unnamed person named Mingo and then make references to Armagedon.

Too simple.  He is no figurehead of anything for me.  I hate the political establishment, Trump is my way of saying that.  Both parties are corrupt to the core, rotton ,evil, hang them all from lampposts.  Scum, evil thieves.  A Kleptocracy.  Responsibile for so much of the suffering in the world, Progressives of the Left and the Right, the same lying shits.

When the Matrix is under stress, take some time to look for the glitches that ensue, which are the only real clue we the sheep will get as to what is really going on. Spoiler alert - we may be seeing some *actual* resistance to the rapid move to the distopian future which Adelson, Koch, Murdoch, Hollywood, Wall Street, Zuckerberg, Gates, the Rothschild run EU, and the evil Royal Family and the rest of the scum have in mind for us.

If you do some thinking about it, once you become a billionaire, money ceases to have the same significance that it does to the rest of us. Having "only" 10 billion dollars, as opposed to "only" 35 billion dollars is a parsing of the word "infinity". If you lose 1 billion, but still have 9 billion, or 34 billion, it is still infinity. Think of this as "FUCK YOU MONEY" writ large.

The coin of the realm for billionaires is, of course, power (and to keep the power/$$$ you already have).. If you have enough billions (and aren't stupid), then you become almost unassailable and can resist the worst that those presently in power can throw at you as they attempt to take away your power/biillions.

The panic stricken attacks against Trump show that PARTS of the powers that be are (perhaps correctly, perhaps not, perhaps its all deception) fearful that Trump will, for example upset their scam and tear them away from their 102yr ponzi of sucking the US dry via the FED. If it were not so, they WOULD ALLOW HIM TO WIN and then subvert him.

HAVE NO DOUBT that Trump has other billionaires on his side - I cannot believe he is doing this without genuine allies. Some allies no doubt are covering both sides, but the bottom line is that Trump & allies genuinely have the economic horsepower to pull this off (assuming he has the good sense to avoid nailguns and refrains from balancing head first from open 50story windows).

He is SO visible that the NWO risks giving the game away if they get more overt in neutralizing Trump. I hope for the Donalds sake he has a *really* good security unit. Would probably not be a good move if it were Israeli based.

Is Trump a false flag, with a self-destruct button ready to be triggered just before the election to give Hillary the win?

This is quite possible - but consider this - if Trump is a false candidate, a maskirovka against the American people, the NWO has seen  a major weapon which has been a mainstay in their attempt to take over the US greatly damaged -  "political correctness". He has thrown PC back in their faces, and has become even more powerful, much to their surprise. PC will certainly never be the same. Even the child Ted Cruz seems to have grown a pair to speak against the unspeakable.

All that work promoting gay marriage, and now promoting auto-castration ala Bruce Jenner (no doubt NWO poster creature for anyone what might oppose them), is tettering thanks to Trump.

Be joyful that in a battle between giants, us mice just may be able to scamper to safety...

I just watched Donald's rally and press conference from last night and all I can say is "WOW".

This guy is a phenomenon. Calling out CNN, the Hedge Fund managers and laying Huma to waste. Unbelievable and refreshing. I think this guy is going to be prez.

Which leads me to my next question. Is this guy the antichrist?

Calling out hedge fund managers that are paid voluntarily, whose compensation is nearly entirely dependent on their performance with clients' money?  Oh right right, they need to pay a "fair share" is the class warfare shit Trump or Elizabeth Warren?  Hey, btw, did Trump call out Israel?  Nope, he loves them, can't wait to send US troops to Syria for Bibi.  Did Trump speak out against entitlements?  Where's his truth speaking on the welfare state?  Oh right, nevermind, just insulting hedge fund managers and Mexicans.  Wow, what a man of substance.

Trump is no outlier, the Republicans thought they had a businessman for president when W took office. W appointed O'Neal and Snow, and he ran a corporate presidency (even if he was also a statist and an FDR overreacher) so now were back to this, Trump the businessman. business is good america, wall street under Bush and Clinton is anti-business. business is something middle america understands, these are people who went from being employees to being contractors, who had to buy their own healthcare, buy their own 401K. obama has been death to business, (unless youre big enough to kick back campaign contributions) it took him six years to out bernanke and bernanke is an antibusiness as it gets. Trump may not fit the image but he fits the bill
