Its odd really when I think about because as I came of age in the early 2000s and started listening to politics more and thinking about real issues, Pat Buchanan would be on MSBC and other talking shows and most the time seemed to be almost a laughing stock or even scorned and "out of touch". Now I beat he'd have been a nice alternative to Trump. I would have voted for him in 2016 or 2012. Its a shame really.

Liberals said the same thing about Ronald Reagan, and Trump is not even extreme, Barry Goldwater made Donald Trump look like Bernie Sanders.

Millennials were raised in a fluffy bubble of Boomer liberal pampering, so they have no perspective on American history before Bill Clinton, who knew?

"ZOMG it's literally Hitler!"?

That's nothing new, as you move beyond your first time round in this cycle, you'll come to see that liberals say that every time they lose the election.

Goldwater was Hitler, Nixon was Hitler, Reagan was Hitler, Bush was Hitler. . . notice a pattern here?

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

Something to ponder when you look at Team Mueller and his Russian-tied group of bought lawyers.

Buchanan is far to the right of Trump, from Pat's point of view, Trump is a New York Liberal Democrat.

What is Trump's "extreme" platform?

Protectionism? Restricting Immigration to Support Labour? Seeking Detente with Russia?

These are liberal Democrat policies, Trump has simply stolen their thunder, and now they have been reduced to nothing more than race hustling and pandering to socialism, which is why they ain't going anywhere right now.

Hey I bite. I believe I said something similar around these parts.
