Current Affairs Donald Trump POS: Judgement cometh and that right soon

[mezzrow]

conservative = "pizza" sounds dangerously foreign. replace the tomatoes with high-fructose corn syrup and call it "freedom flatbread," and maybe we can talk.

; )

I'm an artisanal conservative. We're finding only the purest heirloom ingredients for our pizza. Farm to table, fresh, handmade, and fiercely local.

Here's Ethel, our own Golden Guernsey. They do well in hotter climes, you know. Boss handmade mozzarella - talk about full fat... Oh my.

Of course her favorite footballer is Matt leTissier.

It's just amazing. They cant watch them selves into the mirror and reflect. Sad really. They should just accept it - the greatest loss and screw up in political history - and let the wound heal.

Finners just want to say again that your work in here is just incredible. I don't even agree with most of it but you've unmasked some real evil in the dark hearts of one or two.

It certainly wasn't pineapple. The mushrooms were boss, though.

It is the magnitude of it that should be celebrated.

I think it's more the fact that he isn't a politician and has never held any political office. He's completely raw and will say and do things that will no doubt surprise or upset people, he will make mistakes, but he will probably be an improvement on the eight years of sound bites with little action that you've just had..............

What??
Granted, you don't live here but to say we have had little action is madness.
We've had higher job growth than the other 7 members of the G8 combined.
I'm sick of sensible, educated people arguing to give Trump a chance.
He could hold a presser butt naked with nipple tassels on and they'd be all 'give him a chance, lets see how his first 100 days go, it's a fresh new approach'.
You've asked to be vaulted @mezzrow, you got it.

Should he do so, be assured I will vault this and give you all the credit. Trump may do it himself. He's certainly capable of it.

One point.

Conservatives tend to prefer the term buck naked. Regardless, I will grant that in matters of taste there can be no disputes.

I thought I read somewhere that the vast majority of US job growth came from Texas.....with very little growth in Democratic states........I may be wrong though......

Edit......I think I was wrong.....

buck, got it.
The vaulting was on the more general side. Like if he makes total [Poor language removed] of the country.

I wonder if we can all even agree on what constitutes a total [Poor language removed] of the country anymore. One man's total [Poor language removed] of the country is another man's life calling.

...it was the Soviet Union, in its day, that was the master of this game. They made dezinformatsiya (disinformation) a central weapon of their war against “the main adversary”, the U.S. They conducted memetic subversion against the U.S. on many levels at a scale that is only now becoming clear as historians burrow through their archives and ex-KGB officers sell their memoirs.

The Soviets had an entire “active measures” department devoted to churning out anti-American dezinformatsiya. A classic example is the rumor that AIDS was the result of research aimed at building a ‘race bomb’ that would selectively kill black people.

On a different level, in the 1930s members of CPUSA (the Communist Party of the USA) got instructions from Moscow to promote non-representational art so that the US’s public spaces would become arid and ugly.

Americans hearing that last one tend to laugh. But the Soviets, following the lead of Marxist theoreticians like Antonio Gramsci, took very seriously the idea that by blighting the U.S.’s intellectual and esthetic life, they could sap Americans’ will to resist Communist ideology and an eventual Communist takeover. The explicit goal was to erode the confidence of America’s ruling class and create an ideological vacuum to be filled by Marxism-Leninism.

Accordingly, the Soviet espionage apparat actually ran two different kinds of network: one of spies, and one of agents of influence. The agents of influence had the minor function of recruiting spies (as, for example, when Kim Philby was brought in by one of his tutors at Cambridge), but their major function was to spread dezinformatsiya, to launch memetic weapons that would damage and weaken the West.

Gramscian damage

Is this looking back or looking forward? How does this differ from current Russian behavior? How would you expect people raised on Marxist-Leninist thought to behave, after all?

I grant the Russians credit for being much better at advancing their agenda than the Western media/academia/government troika is at responding to it. So then, who does what to whom?

I read an article in Forbes not too long ago that showed expected job growth to be highest in mostly Western states.

Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Colorado, Arizona, Utah, and Idaho. With Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina being the others in the top ten outside of the West/Mountain West.

Sucks for all those folks in the rust belt who believed that manufacturing jobs would magically return.

ha, not going to read all of that! but I take your point.
