What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

[Berkut]

Lol nothing to do with Hillary.

Remember - Berkut has telepathic powers and knows what's in your heart better than you do yourself.

You don't need telepathic powers to deduce the obvious.

The "Hillary email crook benghazi" stuff only works if you don't actually think about it, at all.

Spicey has clearly though about it quite a bit, so that fig leaf doesn't cover anything anymore.

So what is left when you take away the leaf? Just the actual core of the alt-right support for Trump.

"Hillary sucks" would be a great reason to vote for Cruz, Kasich, Bush, even Carson.

It cannot be used as a rational reason to cheerlead for Trump. Every possible negative associated with Hillary is rationally and objectively vastly worse for Trump.


The only non-bigoted reason to support Trump over Hillary only works for those who simply have not thought about it very much at all, are just operating on emotion and gut feelings. Which I think got him elected moreso than people like Spicey who have thought about politics quite a bit and decided Trump is the guy who represents their core values.

Both of you deserve your stockings that were hung by the chinney with care to be stuffed with a shitload of aborted fetuses.

I make no bones about this - Spiceys continued support for Trump, knowing that he is a relatively smart, informed guy, says nothing at all positive about him as a person.

He is a supporter of the alt-right candidate for all the worst possible reasons. Best case possible interpretation of his stance on Languish is that he is a alt-right troll in the Martinus vein, likely case is that he actually supports the cause of the very worst of what Trump represents.

There is no space left for him to slink into any kind of respectable position, that ship sailed weeks ago. And he just keeps doubling down on his schtick every time he can.

Gentlemen how can we sit here and bicker amongst ourselves when we should be uniting against the common enemy?

[CountDeMoney]

C'mon, Berkut...this is the guy that still believes in gender-specific roles, hates women and and prefers to see negroes wallow in poverty and prison.
So no, he is not an alt-right troll.  He is Trump's demo, bless his little creepy ass cracker heart.

America! Great! Again!

Trump agrees with Cruz et al on the majority of policy issues. If they are the reason one thinks Hillary sucks, and not some silly conspiracy theory or worries about her character, then that rationale still applies.

You can't fucking win a race to the fascist bottom. So what if the Democrats follow suit and radicalise? You want to see a radicalised formely center-left big party? Look at Corbyn in the UK.

The only way you avoid becoming a fascist isolationist state on the long run, if you keep the modern democratic society on the table as an alternative.

The thing with a democratic system is that it is extremely fragile. The only reason it works is that its actors want it to work. You cannot join in with Republicans in undermining it.

Moral reasons aside, that would be just political suicide: if people lose faith in the democratic institutions, they start looking for a strong guy to end the chaos and they will NOT be looking at the radical left in America.

The big question is, how do you keep a modern democratic society on the table?  So far the way dynamic works is that heads Republicans win and roll democracy back, or tails and Democrats tread water until we go to previous outcome.  Do we just wait for Republican politicians and Republican voters to snap out of authoritarian trance and come to Jesus, and just keep taking the lumps in the meantime?  Maybe that's seriously the least worst option, who knows, but it's a very shitty option in either case.

So what? Install the proletarian dictatorship just to be sure there is no fascist dictatorship in the future?

I suspect the final end game will be a constitutional crisis where they look to solve the problem of a party unwilling to govern.
