Mr P,

Depends what post Hillary has in store for him. I don't expect it will be VP.

Brasil needs someone like Trump

If Kevin Williamson actually believes that Owsley County is representative of the white working class, he’s foolish. Look up the numbers- it has fewer than 5,000 people living in it and is just about the least affluent county, within the poorest sub-region of the United States.

Don't be disingenuous here -- the problems he describes are endemic to poor white communities big and small. Prescription drug abuse is a massive mainstream phenomenon. So is giving up on job hunting in favor of posting anti-Obama screeds on Facebook to pass the time. The growing and sympathetic media analysis of the pathologies, dashed hopes, and crippling externalities -- forces beyond their control -- faced by poor Trump voters is a perfect example of the double standard faced by blacks and Latinos, whose identical problems are casually written off and attributed to "culture" and the politics of victimization.

Probably.

However, that is a side issue as to whether or not the description in the article is accurate.

Harry Reid :
"Republican leaders created the drought conditions,"
"Trump simply struck the match."


"What thrived in the wasteland Republican leaders created? Resentment, hatred," Reid said.

..

Republicans also have rejected science and other evidence that supported Democratic policies, such as on climate change and gun violence, he said.

"Even basic facts about the state of the economy," he said. "It’s no wonder Americans feel powerless."
Reid added that he believes this all helped to foster the rise of the Tea Party -- a wave he said is driven by "some of the darkest forces in our culture."


Birther Movement

And there have been other byproducts of Senate Republican actions, said Reid, that have helped kick off what he called "the Donald Trump movement."

Those included, he said, pushing the idea that Obama’s presidency was somehow illegitimate, including through the birther movement, which promoted the false story that Obama was born in Kenya.

"And who was the most prominent Republican in the birther movement? Yeah, Donald Trump," said Reid. "The Republican Party has become without question the party of Donald Trump."

"If McConnell and Ryan think that Donald Trump’s racist, xenophobic demagoguery is wrong, they should not support him -- period," Reid said. "If they refuse to revoke their support for Trump, they should both put on ‘Make America Great Again’ hats, and stand behind Trump at his next press conference."

But they haven’t rejected Trump, he said. "This is precisely the type of moral cowardice" that led to Trump’s rise, he added.

I don't see a problem here.

After each True Believer commits suicide, I will posthumously grant them all credit for the solution of many problems.

It's a damn shame that good leadership is in such short supply in this movement. :(

What a great combination of the (life long) pro-abortion and pro-gun crowds. Harmony at last.

Historically when progressives find that their voluntary eugenics programs don't work, they switch to involuntary programs.

No, they eat others. Usually after decades of failure they pretend it never happened. Out of sight out of mind I guess. Lots and lots of examples out there.

If one considers

the Red Guards,

all the true believers executed by Stalin, after summary show trials,

and a bit closer to home, the UK student unions that recently banned such famous leftists as Germaine Greer and Peter Tatchell from speaking on campuses,

as typical conservatives,

then sure.

Just so you guys know, National Review is full bore against Trump.

Nothing has changed. Whites are better off than Hispanics, who are better off than blacks.

Trump's numbers getting better.

If the right of the country gets behind Trump then Hillary is finished. If those currently throwing tantrums sit it out again it probably won't happen.

Trump campaign is not a hostile takeover of the Republican Party.
It is a rebellion of shareholders
who are voting to throw out the corporate officers, board of directors, who ran the company into the ground.


. . Trump’s rivals were hesitant to take him on, seeing the number he did on “little Marco,” “low energy” Jeb, and “Lyin’ Ted.” But the Big Media—the Post, Wall Street Journal, New York Times—have been relentless and ruthless.

Yet Trump’s strength with voters seemed to grow, pari passu, with the savagery of their attacks. As for National Review, The Weekly Standard and the accredited conservative columnists of the big op-ed pages, their hostility to Trump seems to rise, commensurate with Trump’s rising polls.

As the Wizard of Oz was exposed as a little man behind a curtain with a big megaphone, our media establishment is unlikely ever again to be seen as formidable as it once was.

And the GOP? Those Republicans who assert that a Trump nomination would be a moral stain, a scarlet letter, the death of the party, they are most likely describing what a Trump nomination would mean to their own ideologies and interests.

If the Republicans try to pull a fast one, ie: broker convention, Trump should drop the Republican label, run third party and ask Bernie Sanders to be his VP.

boom.
