And white working-class Trumpoids

Alex...

Change White to Black and Working-Class to Unemployed.

Clyde ... Alex isn't the author of what you quote. Robert B. Reich is the author.

As usual your eyes fail you and you didn't see the quotation marks.

ROBERT B. REICH is Chancellor’s Professor of Public Policy at the University of California at Berkeley and Senior Fellow at the Blum Center for Developing Economies. He served as Secretary of Labor in the Clinton administration, for which Time Magazine named him one of the ten most effective cabinet secretaries of the twentieth century. He has written fourteen books, including the best sellers “Aftershock, “The Work of Nations," and"Beyond Outrage," and, his most recent, "Saving Capitalism." He is also a founding editor of the American Prospect magazine, chairman of Common Cause, a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and co-creator of the award-winning documentary, INEQUALITY FOR ALL.

Take it up with the author. Your tired attempts to inflame are getting old.

Who Clyde? Nah, I seriously doubt it. I'm pretty sure he just scanned through my post at light speed and got it insanely wrong.

Actually, I doubt there's a single sentence in Reich's article that Clyde fundamentally disagrees with. Besides, what Clyde calls "disgusting capitalists" Reich and I call "pathological narcissists".

Same same but different :)

It's an election year. Ditto heads are incapable of independent thinking, much less critical thinking. All you can hope for is they don't parrot the profanities of the candidate(s). Perhaps ignore until after the first 100 days of whatever scum next occupies the office is over?

I just woke up from a dream I was running against Donald Trump for class president in school. It wasn't really a bad dream, but I really need to stop reading the forums here before going to bed!

Ah the putrid odor of the decaying two party system. Suck it deep into your nose. Revel in the beauty of the system where the first one to the bottom of the outhouse pit wins. Swim deep, swim fast, make lots of noise, and rectal cranial inversion makes the loudest noise. Isn't the us vs. them, that thing that teaches discrimination and hate, grand! Suck another breath deep into the nose.

Just a bit hypocritical, claiming he wants foreign workers deported, and the jobs given to US citizens.
Donald Trump to Foreign Workers for Florida Club: You’re Hired
Donald J. Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach describes itself as “one of the most highly regarded private clubs in the world,” and it is not just the very-well-to-do who want to get in.

Since 2010, nearly 300 United States residents have applied or been referred for jobs as waiters, waitresses, cooks and housekeepers there. But according to federal records, only 17 have been hired.

In all but a handful of cases, Mar-a-Lago sought to fill the jobs with hundreds of foreign guest workers from Romania and other countries.

In his quest for the Republican presidential nomination, Mr. Trump has stoked his crowds by promising to bring back jobs that have been snatched by illegal immigrants or outsourced by corporations, and voters worried about immigration have been his strongest backers.

But he has also pursued more than 500 visas for foreign workers at Mar-a-Lago since 2010, according to the United States Department of Labor, while hundreds of domestic applicants failed to get the same jobs


And next time you buy something from this line of Donald Trump Fashion you will probably find it is made in Mexico or China.

When is he going to bring back jobs to the US.

Probably, Never.

Back to Trump.

Should be a very interesting Republican Debate tonight.

It is reported that Rubio and Cruz will be concentrating their attacks against each other. Trying to become the Standard Bearer against Trump.

If this happens. Can it work?


Well, I recently read a rather interesting analysis of the situation.

https://www.sbstatesman.com/2016/02/23/political-science-professor-forecasts-trump-as-general-election-winner/

This political science professor (Helmut Norpoth) at Stony Brook University in New York predicts that if Trump is the Republican nominee, he has a 97% chance of beating Clinton, and a 99% chance of beating Sanders in the General Election. If either Cruz or Rubio is the Republican nominee, they have a small chance of beating Sanders, but will lose to Clinton.

Very, very interesting...

http://www.cnn.com/election

Looking at the current delegate totals...

Republicans:

Trump (82)
Cruz (17)
Rubio (16)

Looks like Trump has a rather large lead.

Democrats:
Clinton (497)
Sanders (69)

Looks like Clinton has a rather large lead... BUT...

Factor out the 'superdelegates' (superdelegates are party bosses, elites, and insiders that are delegates to the national convention by virtue of their position, and not from any particular candidate winning a primary or caucus, and are NOT pledged to vote for any one candidate) and what do things look like??

Clinton (52)
Sanders (51)

A MUCH tighter race...


Also, since 'age' has now been injected around here...

I have one observation.

Back in the 1980 campaign, there was a Republican candidate that wound up winning not only the Republican nomination but also the General election...

A man name of Reagan...

Both major parties and the news media too made an issue of his age... 'too old??'

Turns out they were correct. Reagan's staff spent the last 2 years of his presidency covering up and explaining away a lengthening string of... well... 'Senior moments'.

Reagan was 69 years old when he was inaugurated.

Let us look at the Republican frontrunner and the 2 Democrat candidates.

On Inauguration Day:

Clinton would be 69... same age as Reagan.
Trump would be 70... a year older than Reagan.
and Sanders would be 75... 6 years older than Reagan.

Do we REALLY need to run the risk of another President going... uhh... there really isn't a way to put it nicely, but you know what I mean... while in office with their finger on 'The Button'??

Reminds me of a scene in the music video 'Land of Confusion' by Genesis...

Reagan is in bed and desires a drink of water. Instead of pushing the 'Nurse' button, he pushes the 'Nuke' button...

As the nuclear explosions are going off, Reagan exclaims 'Thats one hell of a nurse!'...

It is refreshing to see that you most of you could not conceive of a position of the true left, you being so right of center. So with a warning -- remove the keyboard and place a bucket there before continuing -- an injection of an idea that is truly on the left is needed in the hope that some will see how far to the right of center they call extreme left.

http://www.lawyerherald.com/articles/35846/20160225/swedish-liberal-party-youth-wing-proposes-necrophilia-incest-legalization.htm
The youth wing of the Swedish Liberal Party has voted on the legalization of necrophilia and incest claiming that such practices should not be outlawed simply by the basing on the fact that it is viewed as disgusting by the society.
...
Liberal Youth Leader Cecilia Johnsson stated that they view such move to legalizing necrophilia and incest as a progressive step for the country. "We are a youth organization and one of our task is to think one step further", Johnsson said as reported by Info Wars. "I understand that it can be seen as unusual and disgusting but legislation can not be based on it being disgusting", she added.

The Youth Leader also added that they do not agree with morality laws claiming that it does not protecting anyone. Per Mail Online, The Swedish Liberal Party Youth Wing asserted that siblings should be allowed to have sex granting that it is consensual and both are over the age of 15.

They also stated that having sex with the dead should be legalized if a written consent was secured from the person before death. The party's youth wing argued that an individual should be allowed to decide how their bodies will be treated even after death whether it is for science or for their loved ones.


Wasn't that a good experience, you got rid of some raw bile that hadn't had a chance to ferment? :)

It appears that bigoted attacks against Whites, Asians, Men, Old Age are acceptable.

While bigoted attacks against Blacks and Women are considered 'Offensive' and is censored.

What exactly is the difference regarding the 'Offensiveness' to the individual disgustedly attacked for their Racial (White/Asian), Gender (Male), Age (Old)?

I thought you were a history teacher, was the history of oppression not part of the course you taught? If it was, did it provide any insight into what the difference might be between the offensiveness of various, seemingly equivalent, statements?
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that ...

Be warned that this man Donald Trump now wears the number "666" the Jesuit priest has now named him . Apon the realize of the 3rd secret of Fatima that has now been realised by the same Jesuit priest you have been warned , there is still time to stop the "The End of Days "

Wake "UP"

The Gun Laws of your Country will enable the Antichrist to wage war on the world .

The Attitude of this law will also make it easy for him to do this .


Would Jesus approve off the people that live by

"God"
"Country"
"Weapons"

This is the thing only the Antichrist would promote , "A man that says these things is not a christen" you have now been named and carry the number "666"

I warned you all well before this man put his hand up that this election is the one that starts the "End of Days" or stops it .

How foolish are you !!, are you like the Germans in the 1930's that Voted Hitler into power ???
