Trump's ineptitude and inarticulateness, his very ridiculousness, is what protects him, if he had the eloquence of Hitler or the intelligence of Mao, this demagogue would long ago have been removed. His default purpose now is to crash and burn, and make the populace never vote for a populist, of either wing, again.

He's a puppet the same as the others before him. I like how you slipped the Nazi/Commie proganda in.

Most in here bitch about governments in power without realizing it is the intent of it all.
1 MedicaidforMarx 2017-08-18
Why are you equivocating nazis and commies?
1 campus_dweller 2017-08-18
Right, like how Hitler was removed.
1 macronius 2017-08-18
Hitler committed suicide after years of war and millions upon millions of deaths, ergo absolutely not the same thing. Removing would have avoided the afore.
1 campus_dweller 2017-08-18
That's my point.
1 BubbhaDunkh 2017-08-18
Hitler didn't commit suicide though.

That's an arguable detail.
1 BubbhaDunkh 2017-08-18
Indeed. With this new evidence it is more probable that he did not commit suicide. Are you claiming the documents are a fake? Prove to me that they are and we can settle this.

Yes, yes the inarticulate man won the presidency. Intelligence of Mao? At least 45 million people were worked, starved or beaten to death in China.
This is stupid
1 macronius 2017-08-18
Mao won the revolution my friend, that takes unrivaled intelligence.

Book your ticket to your champions homeland
1 Chuck_Rogers 2017-08-18
Saying someone is intelligent isn't saying you approve of them.
How do you not get this?
1 WTCMolybdenum4753 2017-08-18
Just like your post it's stupid
1 macronius 2017-08-18
Mao was quite admired by Kissinger for his political brilliance.

This won't go over well, I predict

Kind of a weird way to put it. But sure.
He was promoted by the corporate democrats as a 'pied piper' opponent to Clinton the war hawk. Someone she could easily beat, without actually campaigning on progressive issues.
Then wikileaks happened, and Clinton became even less popular than she was. Now we have clown face Trump.
1 Ahem_Sure 2017-08-18
He isn't a fascist. How could you be so aware, but still buy that line of bullshit.
He is just his own brand of conservativw that really doesnt resemble fascism that much. A few things, but not much.
1 sweetholymosiah 2017-08-18
One reason Trump is a fascist is that he appointed a bunch of Wall St. Bankers and global capitalist CEOs to government. Since fascism is a unity of government and corporate power, at the expense of civil society, Trump is the closest realization to fascism I think America has seen in a President.
1 Ahem_Sure 2017-08-18
That wouldn't make him a fascist though. Could just be something to watch. Sometimes you hire people with the knowledge of how things work.
I don't like it, but I am just saying it isn't proof positive.

"Would long ago have been removed."
Right, as in like sometime over the past 8 months? Wtf
1 macronius 2017-08-18
No, as in before the end of the election.
1 broreemmeanasstaday 2017-08-18
So you mean he wouldn't have been elected if he were more articulate rather than he would have been impeached and removed from office had he been more articulate?
1 macronius 2017-08-18
Hint, I'm using the word "removed" as a euphemism.
1 broreemmeanasstaday 2017-08-18
Thanks for the hint, boss. But "removed" sounds a bit more harsh than just saying, he would have lost.
eu·phe·mism
ˈyo͞ofəˌmizəm/
noun
a mild or indirect word or expression substituted for one considered to be too harsh or blunt when referring to something unpleasant or embarrassing.
"“downsizing” as a euphemism for cuts"
synonyms:polite term, indirect term, circumlocution, substitute, alternative, understatement, genteelism
Appreciating the irony, here.
1 macronius 2017-08-18
No "removed" doesn't sound as harsh as something more permanent, think Bobbie Kennedy.
1 macronius 2017-08-18
“[Trump is but] a symptom of our disease”
1 klemonstrate 2017-08-18
No. You need to learn to constitution.
1 macronius 2017-08-18
What does that mean?
1 Ahem_Sure 2017-08-18
I don't really think so. Half of the arguments against him are regarding how inarticulate he is.
He would be less interesting to the media if he was less brutish, therefore less stories, therefore less anger.
1 macronius 2017-08-18
The media piled on Bernie Sanders more than they did on Trump precisely because Sanders was more articulate, intelligent, and full of conviction, Trump was always the lesser menace to them in their defense of Clinton.
