Condoleezza Rice: Donald Trump ‘touched the nerve’ of people who felt ‘diminished by elites’

[surada]

hahaha the “elites” like the Clintons and Chucky loved him cause he donated his money to them and got what he wanted

They turned on him when he called them out. Rice is right, Trump connected to the people and called out the “elites” that were getting rich off the taxpayers…like obama, xiden, clintons etc

Trump was getting tax deals from cities and then cheating on his taxes to the Feds.. Bill Clinton was educated and has 30 IQ points on Trump.. Is that what makes him "elite"??????

He used And abused his disgruntled And dismayed followers.....they just don't know if yet, because they are still under his spell....

Trump bragged to his millionaire and billionaire friends after his tax cut mostly for the elite, that he just made them a hell of a lot RICHER.

 

[Leviticus]

Except Trump IS an elite. You think any blue collay Trump voter would be welcome at a Trump hotel?

Sorry, can you show where he’s cheated on his federal taxes? Vance couldn’t find anything, the IRS has never found anything

Yes he was getting breaks from donating to the dems, who made laws favorable to him

like corrupt clinton

Really? Who. Not us.

He made the rich, richer.

When he was campaigning, he said the rich wouldn't even be part of his tax cut plan, he also said he would get rid of the tax loopholes the rich take advantage of....

He lied, and did neither.

No actually he didn’t he cut loopholes in the GOP tax plan…tons of them. Increased the standard deduction.

The dems just gave the rich back a massive loophole

and maybe you were one of the few, but wages increased under trump, for the first time in years…and inflation remained normal….

unlike under xiden…higher taxes, bigger loopholes for the rich, higher inflation, less people working…the dem cult way

It’s funny, the IRS doesn’t seem to think Trump was cheating on his taxes.

Wait and see.

Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. has spent almost three years investigating whether such tag-teaming by Trump and his accountant involved misrepresentations meant to defraud banks, tax authorities and others. On Thursday, in an attempt to resolve these questions, Vance’s office unsealed an indictment of Weisselberg and the Trump Organization on charges of tax fraud.

Now that he’s indicted, will Allen Weisselberg treat his boss as he can expect to be treated in return?

Reaganism is just anther word for "bendover and take it".

The word for you is Retard

 

[Red Storm Rising]

This will upset the Big Goverment neo-cons who have been an insult to Reaganism.

Rice, who is far more intelligent than the average politician by a country mile, has taken a clinical approach to the entire Trump presidency. As have people like myself who try and sift through the chaff which the Establishment promotes to the detriment of their nations interests in many instances.

One has to look around at the reaction by the losing side when Hillary lost "we have to be better, we have to be less about the elites and more about American capitalism and the little person". Saying and doing are entirely different concepts (another reason why Trump has remained popular is that he made promises and kept most of them),

Instead the elites doubled down believing that they could never be wrong. It's a cycle of failure that is going to take the entire West and democracies down. There should be no doubt about American Values and global adherence to it. Yet, from "allies" such as Canada to adversaries, these nations have NOT accepted the U.S principles that forged the world post WWII. Since there aren't consequences (as there used to be), they all continue to do so.

Condoleezza Rice: Donald Trump ‘touched the nerve’ of people who felt ‘diminished by elites’

Condoleezza Rice said Tuesday that former President Donald Trump was able to rise to the presidency without ever holding public office because he was able to speak directly to people who felt “left out by globalization” and “diminished by elites.”

Condoleezza Rice said Tuesday that former President Donald Trump was able to rise to the presidency without ever holding public office because he was able to speak directly to people who felt “left out by globalization” and “diminished by elites.”


Ms. Rice, a professor at Stanford University who served as secretary of state under the George W. Bush administration, said on “The Carlos Watson Show” that she preferred to analyze the previous administration through an academic lens.


“What really struck me, and maybe because I’m a political scientist, is the conditions that produced a populist leader who had never been in government before was something I think that a lot of us had not paid much attention to, frankly,” she said.




“He touched the nerve of people who felt left out by globalization, who felt diminished by elites,” she continued. “He touched the hearts of people by saying, ‘You know, you contribute too, and they’ve forgotten you. They look down on you.’ And that’s something that we need to still pay attention to. So as a political scientist I was more interested in what produced this in our society.”


Host Carlos Watson said he was “surprised” by Ms. Rice sounding like “someone who is supportive” of Mr. Trump when she had previously been critical of him and did not endorse either of his campaigns.

“Some of the Trump policy was better than it sounded,” Ms. Rice explained. “There was an extraordinary ability to get people back to work who had not been working for years if you look at historic low unemployment rates before the pandemic. So, we shouldn’t just kind of try to toss this out because he was an unusual personality.”

“What I want to be is analytical about it,” she added. “I don’t want to be emotional about it.”


Ms. Rice described herself as an “institutionalist” and said Mr. Trump‘s attempts to delegitimize certain institutions, like the November election, was what “worried” her about his presidency. She said the fact that President Biden’s election was still certified the night of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot proved “the system worked.”

Not one Libtard in this forum will read all that because Rice is far too intelligent for these Cretins.
I won't say she is 100% correct in every word of her analysis but it closer than most things I have seen.

You don't see the pattern of Trump being sued by liberals?

 

[lennypartiv]

Rice helped lie us into wars for the benefit of big corporations. Big corporation or big government, the people have been screwed over either way.

Sometimes war is necessary. Unfortunately you liberals don't understand that.
