Donald Trump’s political mandate is historically small

a reply to: underwerks

I just hope he isn't as bad as Reagan.

The bar is set low. He's already worse than Nixon, and he hasn't even been sworn it yet!

Quite the logic conundrum. He's already worse without being sworn in?

Another troll thread?

No, but kind of like a Nazi supporter... Alt-right supporter...

Many scholars think Nazism was a form of far-right politics. Nazism is a form of fascism and uses biological racism and antisemitism. Much of the philosophy of this movement was based on an idea that the "Aryan race", the term they used for what we today call Germanic people, was better than all other races, and had the greatest ability to survive. According to the racist ideas of Nazism, the Germanic peoples were the Herrenvolk (master race). The "inferior" races - the Jews, Roma people, Slavs, and blacks - were classified as Untermenschen (sub-humans).

Alt-right is basically a spin-off.

Let me give u a quick primer on naziism..

Hitler nationalized industry(Krupp steel comes to mind)
Nazis nationalized healthcare
Hitlers restricted/mandated municipal utilities
Nazis sought to control every aspect of life from the car u drove to how much electricity used by citizens

Fascism in Nazi germany manifestly existed as a leftist entity...
If u do not understand this most basic of facts then u are intellectually ill-equipped to debate with me...

Too bad this didn't work for Hillary...because it's REAL

Well said, hopefully we'll see a President actually being held accountable. At the very least.

A reminder that this is NOT the Mud Pit.

Please don't dirty up this forum by treating it as a sty. The T&C is in full effect.

As usual, do not reply to this post.

You seem to have forgotten why people hated Nazis. Here's a hint-- it has nothing to do with the cars they drove nor the healthcare plan.

If your big take away from Schindler's list was "oh man, the horror, they made them all drive the same cars-- and did you see that healthcare?" Then you missed the point.

Factor in the real reason people viewed the Nazi's as so vile and you'll find plain as day all the right wing ideology-- the racism, the aggression, the torture and all manners of evil-- the hate, the xenophobia..

Not sure what you're referring to? Because I said are we looking at the worst president of all time? In case it wasn't apparent, I meant, in the future tense... Are we now looking at who is to become the worst president of all time. If I need to correct that bit to make it clear, I will.

If your predictions now hold as much weight as your pre election predictions then Trump will be the best president EVER!

This is the kind of hate that makes me shake my head. Liberals don't feel this way about conservatives. We'd like them on board with equality... with basic human decency, but we're not enjoying your tears.

Feel free to watch this 5 minute video. However the part I would like you to see is at the 4:20 mark. Enjoy!

LMFAO
She, and her ilk, are the reason Trump is PRESIDENT.

Chicago and Arizona protests are EXACTLY why I VOTED FOR TRUMP I would have abstained from the vote before the idiots started protesting.

Awesome video showing why Trump won.

Thanks Jin

Thank the author. I'm amazed at the content other countries are putting out, namely UK/NZ/Aus . Those guys have an eye for this sort of humor/entertainment/truth.

Yes, however, people like the one in that video are one of the strongest factors.

Funny, the only ideology I see currently pushing eugenics,

Eugenics was a popular theory in the early twentieth century but is no longer taken seriously, primarily because of the horrors of the eugenic efforts of the Nazi regime in Germany.

... Just that he has been elected with a landslide no-one in post-WW has ever had. And he got elected to become candidate with a landslide which goes beyond US history.

So, I'd say Trump has a mandate which has never been stronger than this.

But he has also enemies, Soros, Rotchilds, communists, socialists - bunch of pundits - more than historically ever on US SOIL.

This is a very dramatic situation therefor. We have both ISIS, COMMUNISTS and GLOBALISTS - all together working to top off US from the world chart. It is a situation which in my books is much harder to win than any regular war, WW2 including.

I think this should serve as a reality check not only to Trump, but also to his supporters, that as much as you might like Trump, MOST of the country does not feel the same. The country actually went into mourning after Trump's election. Real mourning. People compared it to how they felt after 9/11. You might laugh at that-- but those are your fellow Americans, your friends, and your family.

Are we looking at the worst President of ALL time? Or... Will Trump somehow win over the people?

If you support him, do you acknowledge this very challenging deficit he has?

If you don't support him, what would it take for you to change your mind?

A reality check? Here is a reality check. A tween is clueless. Do you honestly think that just because someone turned 18 they suddenly become politically aware? The vast majority of those "unhappy voters" that I have seen are kids, who if they still dont live at home..... are at school still under mommies wing.
There opinion means nothing. They have no life experience to speak of.
They have never watched their job get shipped overseas.
They have never seen their property taxes get raised to the point of having to sell their home.
They have sooo much to learn still....... yet they think they have all the answers.
They may be educated but they are not wise.

Your post is sad really. You are advocating that the winner of the election do the bidding of the loser..... because its only fair........ you attempt to paint yourself as an "uninterested 3rd party" is very thinly veiled.

alt-right White Nationalist icon Steve Bannon...... what article did you cut and paste that from?

You, are a sore loser desperately trying not to sound like a sore loser .

a reply to: spiritualzombie

You sound like a mainstream liberal,can't stand to lose so must try to minumize anyones glory,get over it,get a job and quit complaining

911 - sucker punched by foreign extremists
119 - sucker punched by domestic extremists

The greatest generation rid us of a Hitler. Then they had tons of kids. The baby boomers.

Spoiled rotten, self-righteous baby boomers grew up to give us ANOTHER damn Hitler.

Trump ran his campaign using Hitler's playbook. He admires evil leaders. And yet somehow he tricked Christianity, which is not supposed to support evil, into supporting him.

Another shameful mark on Christianity. Or should I say Conspirianity.

As is your intellectual horizon and point of view.

Can you actually talk about *anything* else?

Are you related to the Clinton's or something?

Get over it.

a reply to: Riffrafter

Sorry, man, I'm just a member of the majority sharing a small dose of truth about Trump. You can attack me all you like, it does nothing to improve his numbers, his favorability or appeal.
