Colbert takes the gloves off on Trump

[The Conservative]

The genius of Colbert is to make his viewers feel like they are edgy and independent challengers of power, when in reality they are simply repeating the same MSM bien pensant wisdom as everyone else. In this regard, John Oliver is a worthy heir. Colbert is not a journalist and is not funny enough to be a comedian. He is a liberal courtier in the same way that Sean Hannity is a conservative one. Please do not try to dignify him past that.

If that's humor, he needs a new career.

Well, not AIDS, perhaps herpies...

Carter was dead man walking, the moment the Malaise Speech went over the air, Reagan had been looking for his opening, but when Carter blew his brains out, it was a sure bet, Reagan didn't have the balls to take on LBJ, Reagan could have run in 64', but he passed on that, both Nixon and Reagan let Extremism in the Defense of Liberty be the patsy there, and just bided their time, run into the teeth of Great Society with JFK as the martyr, no thanks, then LBJ went Malaise Speech on steroids, "I will not seek nor except your condemnation over my Vietnam debacle", and then Nixon and Reagan went head to head, Nixon won by a cunt hair, Reagan wasn't going to primary him in 72', Nixon was incandescantly popular, but then came Watergate, so Reagan had to just hang back there, because guarunteed it was going to be a Democrat winning that round, then, came Malaise Speech, and finally Reagan was ready to pounce.


People who are going to run for President to win, they're calculating, they're trying to run on time and on target, if/when the DZ is a wave off, wrong time wrong target, they just keep their powder dry.

Reagan did not bide his time after watergate. He took Ford all the wau to a brokered convention. Reagan was one of those with both exceptional skill and no time to lose cause age. As Sun Tzu said he was on desperate ground. That is who we are going to get in 2020, people's whosr time is now or never. Anyone who plays the SJW game "time is on a spectrum" is done. Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, maybe Clinton, and maybe Biden. This is the last round of WH bingo at the DNC old folks home.

Good grief, everyone on this thread thinks it's politics as normal. We all remember that a Socialist almost became the Democratic nominee, and Trump is our President, right?

The economy is going into a recession, probably a severe one, this Summer/Fall, the Federal government is losing the ability to function, and we are a 9/11-Reich stag Fire from full on police state.

If I was handicapping the next elections, I would beyond the conventional.

As long as we can the transgender bathroom thing sorted out and those people can piss and shit with dignity, none of that other stuff you mentioned matters.

OK, fair enough, Reagan had to go for it, but I think it actually worked out better for him for Ford to have taken the hit, the Democrats were going to win that one, Carter took Texas, he took Florida, he took Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York, popular vote was close, but on the electoral, he crushed it, it was better for people to get a taste of a what a nutjob Carter actually was first, then it became the exact moment for Reagan to pounce, after four years of New Age Kooky Carter trying to govern like Fidel Castro, the country was perfectly primed for a throwback to the Good ol' Days.

The Gipper got a big boost, from a massive Carter backlash.

Ok chicken little, SJW. "Like literally Hitler won, you guys." I didnt any of those people would win but your party has no goddamned bench they are going to have to pull someone out their ass. Now they might, but they kinda did that with Obama, they blew their special meter and haven't been mounting any kind of offense to build it back up.

Oh please, Carter was a bigger socialist than Bernie Sanders, the amount of Leftist kookery that the people were willing to consider back in 1976, is far beyond anything Sanders proposed, heck, Nixon was practically a Sanders, Sanders is just slightly Left of Richard Single Payer Public Healthcare Nixon, and as for Trump, he's basically the Gipper all over again, the only difference is, the Gipper harkened back to the Good ol' Days of the 1950's, whereas Trump is invoking the Good ol' Days of the Gipper, in the 1980's.

Basically, you're just living in a post Ronald Reagan/Newt Gingrich America, in the 1970's, America was a kooky basket case, the seventies, maaaan, it was crayzee, maaaan.

People think of the Sixties as being the hippie dippie decade, but that shit didn't actually start until the end of 68', most of the Sixties was actually high and tight like the Marine Corps, the Seventies, maaan, that was the real hippie dippie decade.
