Re: An authentic conservative view

The more I think about Nooner's piece the less I like it.

 

Seems more than anything a sort of salve by the GOP establishment to sugarcoat the Trump phenomenon, how it is about the resentment against the elite, economic inequality, yada yada.

 

As compared to caling it what it is, more than anything- a white supremacist candidacy ala' Wallace or Thurmond albeit in a Brooks Bros. suit.

 

El Donaldo sensed, with his lupine cunning, that he'd gained more public esteem by publicly calling out the Kenyan Muslim Socialist usurper than he had for any of his other publicity stunts, by far.

 

He saw his opportunity and he ran with it.

Re: An authentic conservative view

No, and that's kind of my point, she certainly isn't offering any solutions.

And in Canada a class revolt got Toronto Rob Ford.

 

Sometimes democracy does not work well.

Re: An authentic conservative view

Likewise for the fair State of Minnesota with Jess Ventura.

 

Who, unlike Rob, was far from a catastrophe but it has to be judged as less than a successful experiment.

 

As I recall that came about as both parties nominated uninspiring scions of the political establishment.

In today's world, "authentic conservative" is an oxymoron heavy on the "moron"!
