THE ERA OF TRUMP

but will threaten multinational corporations with extreme anti-capitalist measures

Why do you keep repeating this nonsense over and over, are you trying to out yourself as a concern troll? Obvious concern troll is obvious after all.

If you'd rather I take it to a different thread, I'm fine with that. I'm not on team Trump, so I cannot be a concern troll.

If there's a better way for me to describe anti-globalization policies and regulations, let me know. I don't see how anti-globalization is not anti-capitalism in today's economy. I understand there's a lot of the economy that isn't multi-national, so the 2 are not equivalent.

First, don't expect to talk honestly about Trump right now, when the Beliebers are taking their victory piss.

Second, anti-globalization could certainly be considered 'anti-corporatism', but not 'anti-capitalist'. Corporations are not an integral part of Capitalism.

Third, Trump has no definitive policy whatsoever, on anything. That's how he got elected. He basically blathered talking points all over the map, without specifics, making himself a human Rorschach test for pissed-off Americans. That's how he has upper- lower- and middle-class people supporting him during a class war. He's a walking political 'bubble' waiting to pop, and won't be in office for long. Just watch the fallout, and hope that the damage isn't lasting.

Now, see, Grumpy is not a concern troll, because Grumpy is openly contemptous of Trump and making no bones about it, he does not attempt to present himself as being anything other than fiercly partisan against Trump, which is not disingenous, whether your agree with him or not.

The Democrats are in disarray so say hello to 8 years of Trump Grump. A short stay in office is unlikely and wishful thinking on your part.

I agree on the strategy, the culture war isn't one sided, and "family values" isn't going to cut it anymore, that strategy lost.

Orly? I actually think the culture war was very effective at bringing the liberals to heel and forcing them to jettison their left wing in the process, the Left in America has been virtually wiped off the map by the culture wars.

Obama was the left side of the culture war defeating the 2008 Fox News "War on Christmas" family values strategy.

Trump is on the right side of the culture war defeating 2016 post-modernist SJW critical theory identity politics.

Nobody was pretending that Trump was the Christian family values candidate, he was the anti-PC candidate.

The stuff coming out today in some media outlets is utterly ridiculous.

Vox's annotated transcript of the inauguration speech is... well see for yourself.

In response to Trump's comment that people in Detroit and Nebraska look up to the same night sky:

This is meant as a unifying rhetorical flourish, so Trump can be granted a bit of poetic license — but light pollution means the skies over the Nebraskan plains and urban centers like Detroit actually look very different.

Rethinking the words, "forgotten man."

That catchphrase is part of current populism and protectionism that makes me feel a little better... a bigger part of a repudiation of the New Deal. It's borrowed directly from Amity Shlaes; I remember hearing someone in the campaign acknowledge that.

Drain the fucking swamp. I'm on the front lines for that.

First learn, then teach.

Nice

As soon as A observes something which seems to him wrong, from which X is suffering, A talks it over with B, and A and B then propose to get a law passed to remedy the evil and help X. Their law always proposes to determine what C shall do for X, or, in better case, what A, B, and C shall do for X... What I want to do is to look up C. I want to show you what manner of man he is. I call him the Forgotten Man. perhaps the appellation is not strictly correct. he is the man who never is thought of.... I call him the forgotten man... He works, he votes, generally he prays—but he always pays...

He's still going to Gitmo, though.

I thought you were going to drive him to Canada and then we were going to look the other way and call it an accident when you dropped the AGM-114 on his car from the MQ-9? Is that not on anymore?
