Currently the Democratic Party is so corrupt that it's laughable
Actually, none of it is all that funny, I mean categorically such reality doesn't even qualify as a "bad joke", unless maybe we were to say it as "BAD
joke".
However, with the right vision, when properly draped in cynical dark humor, there is a certain entertainment value to the whole charade of mutual
self-deception party people engage in about this sort of stuff, especially in an election year. Well normally anyways, with this new PC crazy stuff
thrown in the mix now it's basically all tiresome.Well it is interesting for sure, but there's little entertainment value left to be found, hardly
even in my own twisted little obscure version of it, from this stuff anymore tho.
It's all so pointless usually. Two Party System is just 2 sides of the same dirty ugly crooked coin, where thanks to them and their collusion US
little people trying to vote third party is an entirely futile affair. But as such I would go down and vote third party just for them out of much
respect, for having the balls to take it on knowing they dont have a snowballs chance in the Sun, and still carrying the torch for some unforeseeable
future.
Although Ron Paul was my guy, and honestly, there really wasn't a lick on him (except
maybe that bizarre newsletter ordeal), but the MSM & the
2 Party System CREAMED him via their diabolical electioneering collusion machination machine.
ALRIGHT, ON TOPIC FINALLY:
So voting against PC (which is only something I came to fully comprehend this summer) is my biggest thing to even bother with any of this election
stuff, and therefore Trump it is.
I honestly didn't follow the debates, speeches, or video news coverage, or anything besides skimming the headlines. Until about 2 months ago I started
taking bigger peeks. I still hadn't seen a speech until his nomination acceptance speech (where he appeared to me a perfectly good candidate). The
past 2 months I have observed plenty a material cutting every which way from all of you here in ATS! PS: I've never even seen his TV show; I haven't
had cable TV in well over 10 years.
>Insert Bluntone22 above critique here:<
SERIOUSLY: From the beginning, I figured Trump was just some celebrity the GOP put up there with those 5 other guys to bury Rand Paul, in the debates
and such, like even worse than when they brought out actor Fred Thompson late in the game in '08 (after many contenders had been dropping out they
needed fresh blood to keep ignoring Ron in the debates etc so here he came). Him being a billionaire reality tv host whatever, he seemed the perfect
elitist caricature for such a task.
I did note these literal riots breaking out and such but had no context to frame what was fueling these FIRES... besides being purely all Trump alone
which seemed entirely bizarre to me)... although I later came to understand that its this SJW stuff really setting that issue ablaze (hence none at
Hillary events). But the point is, the way all the MSM headlines I had been browsing all had me left with no other assumption besides it being "ALL
Trump's" fault (that the masses are so crazy nowadays).
At first I totally figured he was some total shill by default. Later in spring a trusted friend on such matters insisted the MSM + 2 Party System is
in endless smear campaign like they did Ron Paul. To me, that's the big measure of if someone is Establishment, or not. Since then I've seen nothing
but confirmation of this agenda. This guy might actually be the real thing, per se, going by my "how They did Ron Paul metric".
So he's got my vote on that count.
Do I trust him? NO. Am I convinced he isn't a shill? NO. When I'm 'active' around here after if/when he takes office, will I begin critiquing his
actions apart the something the same as I did Bush & Obama? YES! (well unless he manages to prove thru policies he's not just another RHINOSAUR)
From my casual observations about him so far, I have been picking up on there being some realities to a lot of the personal trait flaws the Hillary
people love SCOLDING him over endlessly around here. I see this as a major weakness, although impressive he's gotten so far with it. But my impression
is he's just so used to being The Boss, and there are apparent flaws in his power here now as a result. I think if he had been an active member say
here in ATS for some years, he'd have much better composure, and more well honed talking points and such. If he had been an long time active ATS
member he'd be unstoppable up there, so it's cringing to observe some of this stuff, as he NEEDS to win... both for the sake of pumping the breaks on
this PC stuff that is running wildly absurd and out of control, and because he just might be a real deal non-Establishment dude. He's the only shot at
getting one actually "elected" this time anyhow where expecting the Republicans really do hate him the way it looks then good news because these
dinosaur parties need to get shooken up.
So I say support him, but like I would say about any other DONT worship him (or ANY other human being).
