It's not that I support Trump in his behaviour in any way, shape or form, Cosby.
I just recognize that he does have the grand ability to gather masses around his ideas.
And that's critical for a populist.
But he's not the source of the problem, but the natural consequence of our culture. Sensationalism and controversy is rewarded, being an asshole for its own shake is endearing to enough of the populace, and our checks and balances have no teeth at all.
Yeah, I agree.
There's an entire establishment that allowed Trump to "become".
Starting from the generally corrupted GOP, moving through the Electoral College and ending up with the two-party system in the US.
double edge of an otherwise efficient system that any idiot can function in. That's why people love coming to live it in america, everything makes sense.
Vlad, that phenom wasn't reallly trump alone remember
you had bannon and all those guys in there doing so much of that strategy early on. they are all gone now so trumps' true colors are coming out more
watching that bannon piece it's clear to see he had a real handle on so many moving parts of not just the campaign, but the white house situation in general, until one-by-one those first-in guys were departing(or getting fired)
It was pretty much Bannon and Manafort doing campaign strategy while Trump played golf.
he was around, miller, sessions
bannon was on a talk show yesterday, going to listen to that, he said some interestin gthings i saw quoted in rolling stone
fucking bannon called goldman and wall street the IR arm of the CCP, ouch
Trump was a great president
Ameliorated the economy. Record high employment rates. Yummy
Better than Obama
I think he gets an automatic F for Iran deal situation
No president since I've been alive has been good on the economy, they've all done their best to delay the inevitable and make the necessary pain worse. We are going to see that here recently as the numbers are already getting ugly in manufacturing, etc
Trump is hoping Fed will inflate and buy him time to at least win the election, we might get one rate cut, we'll see if they give us 2 before the election
Powell pushing back, surprising amount of back bone there. Trump also gets automatic F on the tariffs
Bannon was wrong there, he didn't anticipate(though it was obvious to some of us) us producers being replaced by Brazil, Russia, etc
Companies kramer talked about today in his 'the trade war didn't hurt' are big military contractors, so they are insulated
Regardless of any of that nonsense, still better than Obama
sadly, not even close
trump is to obama what clinton was to trump. bar already so low and still cant
Oh, no, @Sh0t, I agree. I am aware of the work his campaign team did for him.
My idea is that it takes a certain type of talent if you will to convey the ideas Trump has in the past.
I am far from believing that he's an absolute moron aside from memeing.
In my view, you need to have the right personality traits, the right behaviour, the right way of talking to your base, the right everything in order to get your message across.
Even his way of handling Twitter suggests that he has a very solid understanding on how to deal with the masses and the media.
Of course, his fans exaggerate that ability to ungodly levels, but yeah.
He's the right kind of guy for the job the entire GOP are aiming to do.
I don't think he's a moron at all
Yeah, definitely.
His awful decision-making is mostly based on lack of understanding and knowledge
rather than pure stupidity.
He shows signs of real mental decline too
