How Trump Came to Power

[Jason76]

Trump rose up in the Republican party as a reaction to Bush and Cheney, people who could talk respectable and polite, but were sell-outs to corporations in private.

Anyway, despite my high cynicism about Trump, I see where he came from. It's a reaction to internationalism gone bad. A reaction to people being forced to go along with internationalism, whether it's fighting wars overseas or practicing some sort of overboard political correctness.

Note: despite me seeing where Trump came from, I see life history as way too corrupt. The only thing refreshing I see is that, well, at least he isn't hiding things behind "pretty talk".

The people voted him in because he wasn't a career politician. Most politicians speak double speak and Trump just says things as he sees them...out loud. People tend to like that real nature than the fake politicians who try to deceive, and they do it so well.

I'm not sure how aware people were of the situation when W. Bush was in office. They might not have been as deceived as you think. Basically, they believed in supporting Bush. Well, you can see it one way. You can't get something for nothing. How can we have prosperity without cooperation with corporations? Isn't all we deal with, corporations, whether it be McDonalds or Dollar General or whoever?

Yesterday, someone took a shot at, and tried to kill, a convicted felon. Fortunately, the tiny-handed, wotsit-faced, sex-criminal, survived.

This post reflects the demise of society.

Wait. Calling a tiny-handed, wotsit-faced, sex-criminal, who is a convicted felon a 'tiny-handed, wotsit-faced, sex-criminal' reflects the demise of society more than the 40,000 to 43,000 people killed by guns in America last year?

Mate, you are delusional.

They say some shootings are MK Ultra, like that spoof scene on The Naked Gun. Anyone know more about that?

I do know JFK's assassination was a conspiracy because the photo of Oswald holding the weapon was incredibly fake and he had defected to Russia and came back (at the height of the Cold War), no questions asked.
