Back when I was still watching Fox News on occasion, I caught some of Greg Gutfeld's show and he said he would have a very difficult time watching politics ever again after President Trump is no longer President. I thought about it and realized I felt the same way. Can anyone watch any of these boring stuffed shirts drone on in one of their endless, generic speeches? Can anyone actually sit through another press conference with pre-packaged questions and answers? Can anyone trust any of these pieces of shit to actually stand for what's right and for justice, the law or the Consitution or will we just assume they're all lying?
I could go on, but it's a great point. One of the greatest legacies President Trump has left and can only be equaled by other "Trumpian" candidates is that he has castrated the theater of politics. These people pine to be celebrities and now nobody will watch them for a second. They're never getting that back. Oh, we'll pay attention to what they're doing, but they'll now be relegated to boring names on boring "pieces of paper."
That’s a good point. DC is Hollywood for ugly people and they couldn’t stand Trump was the Hollywood Star who came to DC. Something is very nostalgic about him when the world and everything else was less bothersome.
Very true. I dare any of you to actually try to sit through an entire speech of merkel or macron or newsom or any of the career politicians the bluecheckmarks salivate over. It's agonizing.
Meaningless scripted nonsense, which everybody from the politicans to the audience to the media knows is nothing but hollow lies. It's a farce and a complete waste of time.
Nobody would ever stand in line for days to attend a speech by any of these degenerates. Meanwhile Trump rallies are standing room only.
In part I think this is true because he is a builder of real estate, and not a lawyer or finical derivatives person. He cares about being able to build real value in our country, not selling it to china. He has worked close to actual blue collar works for decades, again unlike lawyers or finical derivatives pushers. He actual understands and cares about the "average" worker, in part because his billions are built by them.
Good gracious, he did SO MANY things I never thought a president could do or would do. All the while they were fighting him and screaming Russia, we'd quietly hear about an initiative to merge two departments for better efficiency, moving offices that were too expensive, taking on freaking human traffickers, unheard of peace treaties, fighting for american jobs, etc.
"So what do we have to lose by fighting back? Only our Washington Generals jerseys—and paychecks. But those are going away anyway. Among the many things the “Right” still doesn’t understand is that the Left has concluded that this particular show need no longer go on. They don’t think they need a foil anymore and would rather dispense with the whole bother of staging these phony contests in which each side ostensibly has a shot."
Exactly what's happening now. Conservative, Inc. is losing it's usefulness even as a Controlled Opposition to the Neoliberal-SJW combine.
I like your analogy, except that the GOP was never really flying the plane. It's just been smashing through the trees at the end of the runway while they frantically postured and wrote stern letters. That was until Trump took office. Everything else, I agree with you on. lol
The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can ‘throw the rascals out’ at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy
I'll probably vote for a Republican, but I'll do what I always have done in the past. Never vote to re-elect anyone. Reagan and Trump were the only exceptions I ever made to that rule.
Did you not notice that I said I made 2 exceptions? None other (who were on my ballots) in the last 45 years that I've been voting have been worthy of re-electing in my opinion.
If trump ran as a Democrat in 2024 and the democrats allow that to happen.you still would you trust him? I wouldn’t. Even if he’s positions didn’t chance the fact that slime balls accepted into their private group him shows me all I need to know.
Trump was allowed to run as a republican because no one thought he would win. Then he got traction. Then the republicans became never trumpers. And weren’t worried because they all knew the game was rigged and trump wouldn’t upset the apple cart. Then he won. And the republicans fought him tooth and nail. Remember when we had both houses and the president for two years and couldn’t fund a wall? You judge a man by the company he keeps. Trump running as a Republican in 2016 and 2020 was fine we didn’t know who they were. But we do now. Don’t fall for it again or you get what you deserve. Also not that voting much matters anymore but if trump runs as a republic in 2024 he will absolutely NOT have my vote.
How long are the common plebs of the left going to stand for this? It's an elite class oppressing everyone else to further enrich and empower themselves. Regardless of the lies told to antifa and BLM there is no way their common members support an elite class oppressing everyone not in their secret club. And leftists are generally a lot poorer than we are, they don't have much to lose before they live in complete squalor and are homeless with nothing left to lose if they fight back.
Do you think it's likely that they will rise against their snake tongued lying masters or are too controlled as is?
I don't know, but I do know that people on this site have a decent awareness of the big picture, or at least I thought I did. This article was illuminating. I always though the globalists were organized but I didn't take into account that we're decades-deep into this CCP partnership.
The vast majority of people who watch the MSM and never stumble on here or similar pro-Trump sites have NO IDEA. They don't even have a ten thousand foot view. They are completely in the dark.
Yes, that's very likely. That will give the occupying government an excuse to crack down on them, because once a communist revolution is complete, you have to get rid of the revolutionaries.
This will also allow the occupying government to claim they are the "good guys," finally solving both the trade federation and the Jedi rebellion I mean the constant leftist chaos and the "Trump problem" all at once.
Republicans and Democrats are on the same team. Democrats are on defense letting other countries score on us. Republicans are on offense and they refuse to move the ball.
The GOP's betrayal of Trump should not surprise anyone.
They tried to fuck him out of the nomination just like Ron Paul.
They do not represent us, they do not care about us. They are the enemy every bit as much as the Democrats are.
Despite being a billionaire, Trump was the most down-to-earth and realist president we've had in decades.
He earned his money the old-fashioned way. He didnt inherit it like the Kennedys or make it on Wall Street. He identifies with Main Street
To be strictly accurate - Trump did inherit a business from his dad.
But there is absolutely nothing wrong with that - and he did quite well with the business, that is a fact.
By inheritance?
and didn't the kennedy fortune come mainly from selling alcohol during prohibition?
He got a small loan of a million dollars from his father, totally sounds like Main Street to me. Still better than career politicians though

It's because these were things no president before has wanted to do.
Exactly.

This is the article, when I read it during the last election, is what turned me from "Trump will do I guess" into a die hard supporter.
Wow, brilliant piece. Thanks Dankster.

The real fight is TRUMP and his R grassroots support (95%)
Dems + GOPe + deep state + Time Magazine cabal
Never vote republican again. Regardless of what they say.
They'll create a crisis in 2022 and 2024 to get people to vote Republican so they can keep the uniparty and the false sense of hope alive
100+ million people don't believe any of their bullshit anymore and never will again.
People will return to what they're familiar with.
Now you and me and people on here.
But time passes, and people get complacent.
I hate it, but it's true.
yep they think they got us
I'll probably vote for a Republican, but I'll do what I always have done in the past. Never vote to re-elect anyone. Reagan and Trump were the only exceptions I ever made to that rule.
So you won't even vote to re-elect the good ones? What sort of logic is that?
Did you not notice that I said I made 2 exceptions? None other (who were on my ballots) in the last 45 years that I've been voting have been worthy of re-electing in my opinion.
The logic is that power corrupts.
Name a congressman besides Ron Paul who held office for more than a decade and continued to stand tall for the constitution.
I'll wait...
This is idiotic logic. Why don't you just vote for the best person REGARDLESS of their party?
Why did you vote Trump? He's a Republican after all. He's also spending hundreds of millions in the midterms.
If trump ran as a Democrat in 2024 and the democrats allow that to happen.you still would you trust him? I wouldn’t. Even if he’s positions didn’t chance the fact that slime balls accepted into their private group him shows me all I need to know.

This was posted yesterday but I'm sharing it here as it really explains the build-up to the last few years. It goes waaay back:
