Here's an establishment Republican saying what he really thinks of Trump supporters. It's something to pop out like that because the elites are good at hiding it. (From RCP Video: Republican Strategist Rick Wilson: Trump Supporters Are "Childless Single Men Who Masturbate To Anime".)

Who think Donald Trump is the greatest thing, oh, it`s something. But the fact of the matter is, most of them are childless single men who masturbate to anime. They're not real and political players. These are not people who matter in the overall course of humanity.

Well, then.

I'm glad we solved that mystery.

:smile:

Make no mistake about it. This is what many of the elites really think about normal working Americans. Not the part about masturbating to anime. It's that other part.

The part where he says: "These are not people who matter in the overall course of humanity."

I guess we're going to have an election and see just how little they matter in the overall course of humanity.

That is literally one of the most disgusting things I have ever heard from a political observer ,analyst of whatever this character is . The dismissiveness of the voters whom the party is suppose to serve .

Disgusting .

I listened to the speech and read the transcript but no hoopla yet. I did pick out a few paragraphs from the text that stood out for me, scored them to Mexican music, and gave them robot voice. Not as sexy as Robot Emma, but this is politics, not porn.

I took notes on Mr Trump's speech, too, and so may react later once I see what is happening in the Hoopla. The TrumpGasms are just only now subsiding, I imagine. The bottom-feeding media will be on this like bone-worms soon enough.

,

The biggest stick-out of the Trump remarks -- and hers -- were perfunctory exhortations to get out and caucus. Trump spent 23 percent of his time talking about polls, polls, polls. I expect Mrs Palin will knock his numbers up a jot, but the bone-worms will be feeding from here on in. He was claiming to be able to beat the best showing of his polls in Iowa. I'd say keep that talk zipped.

I am on the whole glad Palin came on board so strongly and earnestly. If she is used as a campaign tool, even better for the Circus. In a way, she sounded like she was in charge of part of Trump policy, which is perhaps why he seemed to be swallowing fish bones here and there during her remarks -- especially the parts about good old Rand Paul.

He called Mr Cruz Number Two instead of by name. Polls, polls, pools, Iowa. Still, it was but a variation on his stump remarks in every speech. Today, Palin was the stand-out. Her articulation of a bold Middle East policy was a marvel. Duke it out. Let Allah (and then later Trump) sort it out.

I like Palin a lot , I loved her speech way back when she was on the ticket for VP .

My issue with the " Allah Akbar " quote of hers is ridiculous though .

United States clearly has a role in the ME , they have taken that role , wanted that role , fund that role , go to war for that role . It is a very simplistic view to think that they should just " duke it out " , when the interests of the United States is what Jonathan Pollard named " level playing field " which is the United States MO in the ME .

She obviously knows this , Trump obviously knows this so I will continue to state that regardless who gets to DC , it will be the same tune cause the game will always be the game .

Fantastic article by Ann Coulter on the American character of Donald Trump:

Ann Coulter: Liberal and Conservative Media Unite Against Trump

Also, to balance the criticism against Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh sees what I see. And it ain't the criticisms (not even about her unscripted speech).

What Palin's Trump Speech Says About the State of the Conservative Movement

Sorry, no quotes this time. I'm tired and it's late. However, Ann's article and Rush's transcript are great, so you will do well to read them.

Marc,

Well that's because you're a gentleman of uncommonly elevated discernment and intellect. There's a reason I think so highly of you.

:smile:

But let me go woo-woo a second. Sarah transmits a moral vibration, a resonance of good character.

Not all the good guys have receivers that process this transmission. But for those who do, the message is unmistakable. Oddly enough, the bad guys process this transmission just fine and it scares the crap out of them. Ergo, the dishonest media massacre of Sarah. And the repeated snark in a LOUD VOICE every time she becomes prominent. (Riffing off the bard, "The bad guys protest too much, methinks." :smile: )

With Donald Trump, Sarah is going to reverse this massacre big-time. Trump has no McCain handler like she did to throttle him and undermine him behind the scenes (leaking crap to the media, etc.). And he is going to let Sarah loose on the presidential audience he is building to say whatever her little heart desires.

Over and over.

She's here. She's dear. Get used to it.

This is going to be fun to watch.

On the transmission and reception of good character vibes, I not only get Sarah like this. I get Donald like this, too.

Well, let's face it. Love both gentlemen or not, we are not going to watch the entire two hours on one sandwich and bladder break. It's here forever, for reference.


In the following post, a much smaller tax on your time, a brief anguished blurt from Jeb! With skeddy music. Another half zillion down the tubes.

Now that we have got past Air Quitter, we go back to the pesky question of whether to involve children in parental political shenanigans. In other words, how sleazy can you go?

 

I mentioned Joan Crawford and her tragic attempt to use love and reason to habilitate Trog.  

 

Governor Palin's eldest son Track is a veteran, and so has slid down the greasy runnel into Hoopla. Not big time hoopla, and no chance of knocking Mama Bear off her campaign. We have all read of this kid of situation. Drunk white guy with issues. Fists. Feet. Guns. Cops. Tears.  And Rachel Maddow.

 

This just weird, though.  What schmozzle of issues is already knotted and stinking?

The difference between Democrats//liberals/progressives/socialists/commies/tyrants and Republicans/conservatives/libertarians/freedomlovers/Objectivishistics is that when the political figures of the former make gaffes, or even commit crimes, their side rallies behind them, brushes off the ridicule or accusations as politically motivated nonsense, and moves on, where the latter group caves in at the slightest indication that one of their own might be made fun of by opponents, and they join in on trying to destroy him or her.

Right on cue: Hillary Clinton blames the vast right wing conspiracy for her email woes

I'm having some fun elsewhere (on Facebook). The discussion is about Trump's protectionism. Here are some things I wrote.

Why the repeat? What the hell. I love me. :smile:

First this:

I don't think protectionism is the end goal for Trump. I think it is a step along the way to dismantling all the busybody regulations and getting to a free market. It's an emergency measure, not an ideology. I might be wrong (I hope I'm not), but that's the way I see it based on how Trump does business all over the world.

For example, I agree that a company should use cheaper labor if it can, but I don't agree that there is free-market virtue in using the closest thing to slave labor that exists from another country just so we can get lower prices in this one. Just because we outsource evil, that doesn't mean the evil is gone. That is a contradiction with the free market--we use the government force of another country on innocents far away to gain market advantages. That, I submit, is not laissez-faire capitalism. We are outsourcing slavery and calling it something else and it is killing the internal job market. What worker can compete with the wages of slaves?

That is one of the things that is part of the emergency right now. And it is one of the reasons the protectionism doesn't bother me so much. But I do have my eye on it. I don't like protectionism as an ideology and will oppose it once the dust settles.


Then this. btw - You can read about the Davos thing here: The Specter of Donald Trump Is Haunting Davos.

Trump's protectionism is a slap in the face of the global elites who are trying to wreck America with a slew of cancerous laws and policies to redistribute America while they each get a cut.

I just read that the elites at Davos are very worried about Trump. Good. I'm sick and tired of the American market being obligated to play by one set of rules while these elites keep rigging the game with their own form of protectionist laws and policies. What do they want to protect? Why their crony money and power backed up by law. How's that for protectionism?

Trump has said clearly that he is a free market person. But he also knows if you are going to go to a gunfight, you better take the biggest baddest gun you've got. After the smoke dissipates and the bad guys are either dead or stop shooting, you take your gun home and put it back in the box. Then get on with your life in peace. I see Trump's protectionism as one of those big bad guns right now.

So this is a character thing. You either believe Trump's character is that, or you believe he is a cunning power-monger wanting to take over the world and crush whoever, or you believe you can win a gunfight with a syllogism, one Trump doesn't have.

To me, Trump is a good guy who knows how to shoot. If, after the gunfight, he starts acting like a bad guy, I will turn on him. But, frankly, I don't expect that to happen. Instead, I expect to be really really busy with my own productive pursuits because he cleaned the place up so I don't have to worry about bad guys constantly trying to take over what I build.


Finally I wrote a parable. To understand it correctly, you have to include slave labor, government subsidies from foreign governments, special tariff laws and so on as cargo. The ship is obviously America. And I don't need to say who the moron captain or Renegade John are.

The SS Goodwill, a cargo ship, was captained by a moron who ran it into a shoal. The reason he got careless was he and his cronies were running stolen goods on the side. They needed to avoid detection.

Now they were stuck. But even with the tide coming in, the ship was too heavy to break free. And it looked like the people coming to get the stolen goods alerted some pirates that there were easy pickings. Now pirates were on the way.

The captain told the crew and passengers not to worry. Everything was going well. All we need to do is love on another. The reaction was swift. They revolted. They wanted a new captain fast.

Up stepped Renegade John. "We have to jettison some of this cargo!" he cried. "Those pirates will kill us if we just sit and wait! Follow me and let's get this thing done!"

There were protests, but enough people supported him to make him captain. He organized them quickly and competently and they got the cargo overboard. The ship lightened and broke free. It went off just in the nick of time to avoid the pirates.

But during all this, there was strong resistance. The people who owned the cargo were not happy. "You, Renegade John, now have an enemy for life!" they cried. "And so do your followers. You idiots! You are immoral, stupid, and no friend to private property!"

:smile:

So I repeat my posts because I may moonlight, but my heart is here at OL.

:smile:

So now the "Vatican" equivalent of conservative thought, the National Review, is ferociously attacking Trump.

http://www.nationalreview.com/

I remember how they also attacked another innovator and outside the "mainstream" individual.

You know, the one whose name rhymes with "mine" and dared to write that big, "you can not be serious" book.

Joe:

Yes, "...to the ovens go!"

Amazing. Some of the quotes in the magazine were subtly hinting at the "Hitler" theme. One used "triumph" at the beginning of the sentence and "his will" at the end of the sentence, So they got their coding all set up.

Triumph of the Will (German: Triumph des Willens) is a 1935 German propaganda film directed, produced, edited, and co-written by Leni Riefenstahl. It chronicles the 1934 Nazi Party Congress in Nuremberg, which was attended by more than 700,000 Nazi supporters.[1] The film contains excerpts from speeches given by Nazi leaders at the Congress, including Adolf Hitler, Rudolf Hess, and Julius Streicher, interspersed with footage of massed Sturmabteilung and Schutzstaffel troops and public reaction. Hitler commissioned the film and served as an unofficial executive producer; his name appears in the opening titles. The film's overriding theme is the return of Germany as a great power, with Hitler as the leader who will bring glory to the nation. Because the film was made after the 1934 Night of the Long Knives (on June 30) many prominent Sturmabteilung (SA) members are absent—they were murdered in that Party purge, organized and orchestrated by Hitler to replace the SA with the Schutzstaffeln (SS) as his main paramilitary force.
