Watching news reports of how unhinged Donald Trump is raises some interesting questions. The most obvious is if trump is so unhinged then how on Earth did he manage to capture the Republican Party and wind up as a candidate that has an absolute shot at getting into the White House? The answer to that question is that Trumpās unhinging is a fictional creation of a media joined at the hip to the powerbase of his opposition. The opposition hasnāt gone as far as showing him pulling the wings off flies or setting cats on fire yet but they have produced ads depicting disabled children watching Trump supposedly poking fun at the disabled. Itās quite remarkable how far Trumpās opposition will go to keep him out and it reveals a growing desperation that he might go all the way.
He on the GOP nomination due to 2 things. The large amount of contestants and the fact that he had a different message: humor.
Imagine you have a store that sells ice cream. In the store is 3 flavors. Chocolate, Vanilla and Tutty Fruity. Of the 6 flavors, you have two tubs of chocolate, six tubs of vanilla, and one small tub of Tutty Fruity. This pretty much represents the GOP field. Where there were differences between most contestants, there were three or four candidates with similar pitch/platforms. Santorum and Huckabee (and Jindal to an extent) were the same. So when voters decided on Chocolateā¦those three divided up the vote among themselves. Then you had the 50 shades of Vanilla between Bush, Rubio, Kasich, Walker, Perry, etcā¦. Pretty much all preaching the same message of hate and divisiveness. When voters decided on Vanilla, some went for this tub, some went for that tub, some went for the tub over there.
The Tutty Fruity candidates (the outsiders) were Carson, Carly, and Trump. Trump set himself apart (either purposely or not) by being funny. Giving out his opponentās cell numbers, giving kids rides on his helicopter, etc⦠So when voters came for Tutty Fruity, you saw a very high percentage of them for Carly at one point, for Carson at one point, and, in the end, for Trump. Basically, he was able to stand out because there were so much competition for those who liked vanilla and Politics being politics, you end up not liking the dog going after the same bone more than the dog who isnāt in the fight with you.
And then there was the campaigning. He made fun of Carlyās appearance. He insinuated that Carson had the mentality of a child molester. This, after they began taking votes away from him.
As for being unhinged, the evidence of his not understanding the Presidency is deep. I wonāt rehash it here. Essentially, he is running because he thinks it would be cool to be President and could care less about solving any problem facing the nation. Which is why youāll find most voters pulling a lever for someone else in about a month.
Trump is above all other things a change agent and that makes him a bona fide threat to the entrenched machine that is heavily invested in the status quo. That status quo includes a large swath of the Republican Party consisting of career politicians who long ago caved to the globalist agenda that has eroded and attenuated the American middle class. This is why Trump pulled the sword out of the stone. The people woke up one day and realized that they had been abandoned by a leadership walking so far in front that they lost sight of those walking behind them.
Average Americans have seen their livelihoods and neighborhoods stuck in a time warp that is beginning to resemble the 1960ās with a stark difference-thereās no way to work your way out of it this time because all the best job-producing manufacturing industry is relocating in foreign territory. Company-paid pensions and health benefits, once a birthright of average Americans, are disappearing faster than phone booths and company loyalty or seniority have about as much value as confederate money. When Trump talks about making America great again he means he wants to bring these things back. You see heās not part of the cabal thatās been working to destroy the middle class and thatās what really makes him dangerous to those who have āplannedā the unfortunate path weāve been on.
Jobs are not coming back. Labor moves to where labor is cheaper. That isnāt here. And no, tariffs on goods that are imported wonāt coax anyone to open factories here. They will simply ramp up their sales overseas (which is what they are doing already) and raise prices here. America is a saturated market. Emerging economies will be place you want to have a presence.
Now, what neither party will tell you (probably because they are not focused on it more than some sinister plot to keep you in the dark) is that automation has made the 40 hour work week a thing of the past. There are fewer and fewer jobs that require someone to spend 40 hours of labor to complete in five working days. Weāre likely the last generation to have the corporate mindset of a 40 hour work week. While this is good for businessāitās terrible for the workers.
The Democratic Party cannot run on its record of achievements because that record shows only failure. So the strategy is to incite fear of any change in the game by labeling Trump as unhinged, crazy- a loose cannon. Itās all theyāve got. They smear Americans who question the direction weāve been going in with the epithet of āa basket of deplorablesā. People should take note of this because this is a real eye opener as to how this cabal regards citizens who step out of line and donāt go with the plan.
Democrats are fine with their accomplishments. But while we are at it..why donāt you list the long string of Republican Accomplishments focusing on the last 8 yearsā¦.
We should be asking important questions such as: why are gas prices and interest rates so low? Is it a controlling ploy to keep the status quo in Washington? Has the economic collapse of 2008 been resolved or are we living in a bubble as Trump states; a bubble that will burst with sharply rising gas prices and skyrocketing interest rates as soon as the election is over? People are a lot more likely to sue for change if they have to choose between gas for their car and food for their table. Are fuel prices and interest rates being artificially manipulated to keep Democrats in control? We must answer this for ourselves. Another question we may ask: Have the Internal Revenue Service, the Department of Justice and The Federal Bureau of Investigation been politicized, corrupted and compromised to maintain the status quo in this election?
And now you see why Trump and his supporters are seen as unhinged. Everything is a conspiracy. From the dates of the debates to the moderators, to the press, to the FBI, to the DoJ, to Hollywood, to the election in general.
Instead the media has been leading the cerebrally challenged down the rabbit hole of all the dangers of the unhinged lunatic that might actually change the game to regain the greatness that has been stolen as we slept and trusted a leadership that has betrayed us. No one is asking any real questions and they should be because this may be the last chance.
zzzzzzz.
Yeah, whatever. Iām always tickled that some think the way to get money out of politics is to elect one of the monied interest who regularly āgame the systemā.
