Is Trump rational? : Comments

By Michael Knox, published 1/5/2018

Importantly, the White working class is also the largest block of Democratic Party voters. Unfortunately, Hillary Clinton only won 28% of White working class votes.

If not Donald Trump then somebody else not contaminated by the quest for personal power and the benefits of office. Donald's win was a manifestation of the revolt against Wall St and business as usual in Washington. The establishment believed they were in charge and pulling all the right strings, greasing all the right palms etc. As an outrageous Trump got almost wall to wall, free airtime. All while the meddling Russians lent a hand? Rational? Well for a six time bankrupt to still be as wealthy as he now is? He has to, at the very least, have a moment or two of extreme clarity and or excellent help? That said he still needs to deliver on the promises he made and not put America back into another war, where he as the incumbent will stay on? Is he rational? Well, he had to be doing a couple of things right to be where he is today? Alan B.

President Trump is a breath of fresh air. In one year he has made his detractors look like a bunch of teenage girls having hissy fits. He has achieved much more in one year than his opponents and opposition achieved in the previous 8 or more years. Hopefully he can keep draining the swamp. We desperately need to drain the abc, academia and other tax payer funded sucking organisations pushing their sick Marxist ideology. Have they managed to jail HIlary yet?

Michael, 100 years ago, those attaining a university degree comprised only about 2-3% of western populations. And these graduates were almost always the cream of the middle and ruling classes. They were the establishment. Today around 10-12% of western populations attain university degrees, too many of which are almost useless Humanities and Artz degrees. Such graduates are no longer the children of the establishment, they are the spoiled, pampered "dregs of the middle class" (as former Labor minister "Nugget" Coombes once described them.)

They are an entirely new class of society. They consider themselves to be oh, so ferking intelligent and morally superior, and they look down their noses at the working and disadvantaged classes, whom they once pretended to be the champions of. They are a class which champions equality, but they really know how to talk down to their working class "deplorable" inferiors. They also sneer at the ruling and business classes (who are usually their despairing parents) and consider themselves morally superior to them.

They are not defined by wealth, because often working class tradespeople can earn considerably more money than they can. They are defined as a class by their attitudes.

Foremost among them is the rejection of nationalism and patriotism, evidenced by their support for anything which promotes a cosmopolitanism and trans national governments. Naturally, they are drawn to socialism for it's supposed internationalism, heedless of the fact that such a system has failed miserably wherever it was tried.

True to their cosmopolitan beliefs, they are the champions of anti racism. The fact that non white immigration into their countries is a form of social suicide is only just beginning to dawn on them. But it doesn't matter what the issue is. Whatever the lower and upper classes want, the socialite socialists will fight for the opposite as an expression of their class identity. If Trump's supporters were for immigration and against racism, they would be against immigration and for racism.

It is difficult to talk sense to them because people who think they were born infallible believe that they can never be wrong.

And one thing that is worse LEGO, most of them seem to end up in the bureaucracy, where some degree, any sort of degree, even from the B & C grade universities, where no one ever fails, has become a necessary qualification.

I don't think that he does. Most of people do not like him because of decisions he made.

Runner, a self claiming believer in God and Jesus, seems to turn a blind eye when a nutter like Trump breaks every rule in the Bible right in front of his very eyes.

Adultery used to be a sin until Trump came along.

Lying used to be a sin until Trump came along.

Bearing false witness used to be a sin until Trump came along.

Even Fox news is turning against him...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fk8Eru10zlc

Now there are allegations that more women may have been paid off by Cohen

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ER3Z1m9zuc

But we may as well laugh at it rather than cry...lol

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMIlPRZDg3w

So Runner should we now just accept that following the rules in the Bible regarding the above matters don't count anymore and no-one following them has your complete approval?

You are a funny, confused little thing...lmao

I suspect strongly Trump would agree that he is an adulterer, liar etc etc. Most his supporters would agree with that.

He is however anti murder of innocent babies, is smart enough and morally couragous enough to support Israel, exposes the total depravity of and hypocriosy of the lefist media, is not to dumb/dishonest to pretend that Islam is the religion of 'peace', he treats the warmist with the contempt due for deceivers and actually puts America first.

Put bluntly, with all his flaws he is a mile ahead of the one who deliberately deleted emails to avoid prison. Yes I would prefer a Ben Carson but heh you can't have everything.

btw has the leftist stopped their hissy fits, violence and tantrums yet?

Runner...Trump changed his mind on terminations to capture the religious single interest people like you!...You have been hoodwinked!

He says "He is pro choice in every respect" early in the video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1n9dYA2SdU

The Bible isn't against killing babies....In fact it is full of it!...Have you ever read it?...lmao

Numbers 5:11 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

Then....Numbers 5:16-22 “‘The priest shall bring her and have her stand before the Lord."

Then he shall take some holy water in a clay jar and put some dust from the tabernacle floor into the water.

After the priest has had the woman stand before the Lord, he shall loosen her hair and place in her hands the reminder-offering, the grain offering for jealousy, while he himself holds the bitter water that brings a curse.

Then the priest shall put the woman under oath and say to her, “If no other man has had sexual relations with you and you have not gone astray and become impure while married to your husband, may this bitter water that brings a curse not harm you.

But if you have gone astray while married to your husband and you have made yourself impure by having sexual relations with a man other than your husband”—

here the priest is to put the woman under this curse—“may the Lord cause you to become a curse among your people when he(God) MAKES YOUR WOMB MISCARRY and your abdomen swell.

May this water that brings a curse enter your body so that your abdomen swells or YOUR WOMB MISCARRIES.”

“‘Then the woman is to say, “Amen. So be it.”

AND

Hosea 13:16 Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up.

OOPS!

Clinton should have been charged but you are too biased to really take seriously.

America has supported Israel since it's inception and Clinton would have continued that.

Back to Bible 101 for you Runner!...lmao

Your suggestion that Trump would probably admit that he is an adulterer is disproven by the Stormy Daniels case. He has denied it since it opened up.

But just to show you how to be balanced and not biased here are a couple of more videos for you to watch. The simple rule of follow the money applies.

Has Trump laundered money through his properties? Definitely watch this one!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrJzf6eUSWA

Allegations that Trump mocks Christians who voted for him...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snKpVv71VS0

Clinton on "Tough on Banks"?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSgNj94L2fc

Trump may have paid off more women...Guilliani doesn't deny it is possible!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ER3Z1m9zuc

Clinton and the Clinton foundation... Definitely watch this one!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApcqXijVzYU

And I bet you are a fan of this guy Runner...lmao

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCDqUr86LfI

There are problems all throughout USA politics ... So try not to be too biased and naive!

See Runner, even you get the opportunity to learn stuff...Try it for a change...lmao

So if all that is happening in the USA - What is happening here?

Keep an open mind now...lmao

anyone working for Hollywood must know their depravity OP2 except maybe for the moralising feminist and homosexuals who lecture to everyone else. They are among the most sickening.

You really are a jumbled mess of a person Runner.

It's the religiously uninformed like yourself that moralise and lecture wrongly.

You claim to follow Jesus and yet spend your life judging everyone else... Remove the forest of logs from your own eye Runner!

Do unto others Runner!

lmao
