I think Jack's got Trump adequately pegged.

This he said to me

You'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved
In return"

wack Trump ....now that's funny
Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started.
They could still get him out of office.
But instead, they want mass death.

Cape Breton is losing their population so here's an alternative..........

"It all started as a joke. Canadian radio host Rob Calabrese, who lives and works on Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia, threw a website together: cbiftrumpwins.com, which stands for “Cape Breton If Donald Trump Wins.”

On it he said: “Hi Americans! Donald Trump may become the president of your country. If that happens, and you decide to get the hell out of there, might I suggest moving to Cape Breton Island?”

So many people responded that he changed the website to include links about immigration, housing and schools.

The elite may whack him. He doesn't play ball. He reminds me of the film director in the movie "Wag the Dog". He had a huge ego and look what they did to him.

Seriously, he'll only have as much power as the real PTB let him have. He probably hasn't had his "Bill Hicks moment" yet, but if they can't fake election results enough for him to lose, and they don't whack him, he will have that moment.

I'm kind of surprised people here still think that the Prez really has that much power. Trump could really be a grain of sand in the machine. At least for a while.


Thanks Nordic, for the reminder of the film. I think 'Wag the Dog' should be used as a media tool for teaching High School Civics :wink (is Civics still taught?). I usually think of the current president as The Ventriloquists' articulate (Obama) or inarticulate (George W) puppet/dummy. Since this election offers even more than the usual mishmash of mixed metaphors, I'll add that Trump strikes me as both the Carnival Barker and The Carnival--he's not so much producer Stanley Motts as The 'Pageant' Motts creates in 'Wag the Dog'. imo.

I may need to re-register to vote this year.

Right on.

What does Trump's version of the Saal-Schutz or the Sturmabteilung look like at this stage? All-volunteer Montana militia or Academi mercenaries? Is it predicated only by a threat or could it happen without being noticed?

I never knew that about Juan Cole before. I must have missed all that.

It's amazing. This shitshow klown car spectacle gets better and better each day. The mighty elephant has distemper and it is glorious.

Rubio then fluffs his lines at a live event - critiquing Trump's tweet spelling, but fucks it up.

And he's the "establishment" candidate? Meanwhile, Christie backs Trump this morning. The tide has turned and the party are going to wait until Tuesday's results to be sure, but I can see them negotiating terms with Trump after next week. The mother fucker is going to be president and they don't want to be left out in the cold

I'm usually the Eeyore who feels all glum and shit about politics, but I'm enjoying the ever loving hell out of Trump. I no longer care on whit about who becomes the preznit of this toilet bowl that's brimful of turds.

The fact that the republican party is going kerblooie over Trump is wonderful. I loved watching Jeb get his ass handed to him at the debates. Trump has managed to mention several elephants in the room, including the tremendous fucking U.S. citizens are taking from the insurance and pharmaceutical industries. He also came right out and called Bush the Stupider and his gang of criminals liars in the run up to Iraq.

If the election were held today, I'd vote for Bernie because he seems to come as close to someone I could actually support as I've seen in decades. But Trump's antics are hilarious, as are the goobers sitting in the audience who support his filthy rich ass.

Trump and Christie both have criminal trials coming up in the next few months....Trump is already the defendant and Christie will be after his aids trial start ...I hope Trump picks Christie for VP

The best Trump video EVER.

https://www.facebook.com/GenTradition/v ... 786415338/

I can't embed it. If anyone knows how, feel free.

I have no idea what this is, or where it is from, which makes it all the more amazing.

It's clearly not trump himself. What is more telling is that the audience seems to think he is.

I just wish that the zillions of people who are losing their collective shit over Trump would get equally upset over our actual leaders -- you know, the ones who yield real and military power and are using it daily -- who are, in fact, fascistically waging permanent war, slaughtering people all around the globe, supporting monsters, subverting our basic rights, incarcerating record number of citizens, poisoning our air and water and farmland, poisoning our food with chemicals from poison makers and making it illegal to let us know which foods are poison, have destroyed the free press and are desperately trying to start WW3 with the greatest nuclear power in the world -- I mean the list goes on and on and for some reason hardly ANYBODY protests about this stuff but OMG some reality star blowhard comes along with ZERO actual power and he's the next fucking Adolf Hitler.


+1 to the above quote.

Imperialist fascist or populist? Go with whatever flavor makes your ego feel better. Holy crap, so many get their silk panties in a bunch when a narcissist (what elected politician is NOT a narcissist?) like a Trump speaks his mind because he is a so called "conservative" or member of the far right. Makes me feel good and I can sleep comfortably at night knowing that it's far more human when an imperialist far left politician is responsible for the deaths of innocents. Just nice know know that the far left guy (they are always guys, Hillary included) is more in touch with the feelings of those who get murdered by a drone or hit squad.

Christie seems to be trying to build a bridge he's already burned down; he's aiming for VP for sure. I doubt they assassinate Trump - he will simply remain in the dark while those who do manage power do their dark deeds.
