Donald J. Trump: President of the USA Part III Covfefe

The alternative to top down orders is actually teaching people that they need to support their local economy.

Sure, but how do you circumvent the globalist propaganda in the process? Cuz your efforts will be in vain if you can't outcompete it.

Ja, don't know. I like to believe(probably incorrectly) that the average person is smart enough to do what's in their community's and in their own best interest without the need for top down orders.

The market does not equal the economy.

 

[theratman]

The market does not equal the economy.

It doesn't, but it does affect it to a degree.

 

[cerebus]

The market does not equal the economy.

Who said it did? But a market crash would affect the economy. Do you think Trump has the right to unilaterally order US companies to not do business with China?

I had Andy Ngo association with Patriot Prayer confused with Proud Boys.

A thread detailing clear implicit links.

He is a provocateur masquerading as a journalist.

Note how he happily stands with guys holding bricks, which were later thrown at the premises, but somehow melts when he sees a milkshake.

A case of accuse the other side of that, which you are guilty of, perhaps?

So then just like all the other activists posing as journalists in the MSM then.

What's the problem Buka, you said you only care about violence... Andy isn't being violent, is he?

 

[Gnarls]

It doesn't, but it does affect it to a degree.

I'd argue it's the other way around.

Who said it did? But a market crash would affect the economy. Do you think Trump has the right to unilaterally order US companies to not do business with China?

The post you quoted and then your juxtaposition with the Dow.

 

[cerebus]

I had Andy Ngo association with Patriot Prayer confused with Proud Boys.

He's also the guy that was trolling Ilhan Omar stalking her with his mic shoved into her face accusing her of marrying her brother. He's basically a tool of the far right, like Milo.

Democrat party leaders


The last two years have been hard on America-hating Democrats.
Open borders, lawlessness and socialism are not big selling points for the liberal party.
There are less Democrats today than when Donald Trump was elected US President on November 8, 2016.

According to Gallup.
On November 9-14 2016 30% of Americans considered themselves Democrat.


Today, August 24, 2019 only 27% of Americans consider themselves a Democrat.

All of that craziness and violence is not expanding their party.

Joe Walsh, a former Illinois congressman, says he’ll challenge President Donald Trump for the Republican nomination in 2020. The tea party favorite argues that Trump is unfit for the White House.

Walsh announced his candidacy during an interview on ABC’s “This Week’” on Sunday. Also in the race is Bill Weld, a former Massachusetts governor.

Walsh won a House seat from suburban Chicago in the 2010 tea party wave, but lost reelection in 2012 and has since hosted a radio talk show.

He has a history of inflammatory statements regarding Muslims and others, and said just before the 2016 election that if Trump lost, “I’m grabbing my musket.” Walsh has since soured on Trump.

You know, just as the Repubs of yesteryear are not the Repubs of today, the same is true of the Dems. You might wanna take that into account.

Sure. But it shows what a farce conservatism as a movement is, and has been for a very long time.

You mean like Tulsi Gabbard? Pretty sure I even said somewhere that atm I'd vote for her over Trump. I expect my views to remain that way for so long as Tulsi doesn't pussify and become a DNC toady as Bernie Sanders did.

Indeed, a search for me talking about Gabbard isn't hard to do:

Donald J. Trump: President of the USA Part III Covfefe

You lack a ridiculous amount of self awareness. The entire Democrat party and other leftists believe that it is capitalism and free markets that is holding back people. :ROFL: That's right. Not holding them back, oppressing them. And more than that, this oppression need not even be...

Donald J. Trump: President of the USA Part III Covfefe

By success, you mean conviction? Yeah, the Senate won’t convict... But that’s not the point. When Nancy presses the button, House Judiciary get to hold live, televised hearings. They also get grand jury documents without WH interference... they’ll draft the articles of impeachment and a...

mybroadband.co.za

Gabbard's fine, as is Yang. But they're not going anywhere in this race.

Why don't you spend any time discussing actual policy issues and ways of moving them forward, though? Including the things that Gabbard are putting forward as part of her campaign? It's really weird that as someone who claims to be a 'lefty' and supports someone like Gabbard, you spend so little time discussing the ways that the Trump admin are harming the things you supposedly view as goals?

I'd call myself a lefty, not a leftist. I certainly don't actively try to be on the left rather than the right, and I'm not deranged enough to think that authority can be abolished entirely and that any acknowledgement of this turns one into an incoherent authoritarian.

So you're tilting at windmills and fighting right wing culture wars in pursuit of... what exactly, as a 'lefty'? Which policy goals do you think are advanced this way?

Right, because you're not going to claim that antifa's motivations are grounded in real world concerns and suffering that require attention and human activity, even if their proposed strategy is arse backwards?

Some of it is, some of it isn't.

And that's exactly the same argument that will be used to normalise paedophilia.

Yeah, totally. Just like marriage equality led to people marrying dogs.

Because marriage as a social institution has to be respected if it is to be effective. It no longer is, btw, the value of the institution has become deleterious in the eyes of many men. See the recent thread for what this looks like in action. You can't have the norm without the discrimination, but you are blind to the value of discrimination in this regard.

So conservatives in practice have discriminated against people, for example by denying marriage to a whole class of people, instead of assuring equal rights for all... in an effort to 'respect' marriage?

Not to mention the discrimination went (and still goes) way beyond marriage.

Good little mini-thread about why Walsh has potential to do some damage, even though he has no chance in hell.

Sure. But it shows what a farce conservatism as a movement is, and has been for a very long time.

Trump's only doing good things in that regard.

Gabbard's fine, as is Yang. But they're not going anywhere in this race.

Which is more than enough reason for me to treat the Dems with contempt and scorn.

Why don't you spend any time discussing actual policy issues and ways of moving them forward, though?

Pretty sure I do when they actually crop up. But unfortunately, most of the policy proposals on the left have been downright retarded.

Including the things that Gabbard are putting forward as part of her campaign?

No, I'm not going to be baited into virtue signalling as you deem appropriate.

It's really weird that as someone who claims to be a 'lefty' and supports someone like Gabbard, you spend so little time discussing the ways that the Trump admin are harming the things you supposedly view as goals?

Just because immortality is your goal, that's no reason to swallow mercury. What Trump is harming is more the plan to swallow mercury than the project for immortality. Making sure globalism dies a horrible death takes priority with respect to ensuring personal freedom for humanity.

So you're tilting at windmills and fighting right wing culture wars in pursuit of... what exactly, as a 'lefty'? Which policy goals do you think are advanced this way?

The ones that prevent the West slipping into the same kinds of societal standards that turned the Soviet Union into Hell on Earth.

Some of it is, some of it isn't.

Just like the Proud Boys, then.

Yeah, totally. Just like marriage equality led to people marrying dogs.

MAP activism is already a fact. All the arguments that apply to homosexuality as a sexual orientation apply to MAPs, and the sole defence against normalising it, that the minor is too young to give informed consent has been obliterated by the advent of transtrending and giving minors life-altering hormone blockers and the like.

So conservatives in practice have discriminated against people, for example by denying marriage to a whole class of people, instead of assuring equal rights for all... in an effort to 'respect' marriage?

An effort to respect Marriage as an institution that forms monogamous pair-bonds between males and females such that giving birth outside of those circumstances qualifies legally as an "illegitimate" birth, thus setting up a whole social system that makes marriage a meaningful social arrangement.

Do I agree with the idea of making sex acts outside of marriage illegal? No. But nevertheless marriage is the single most effective institution against combatting poverty ever to be invented. And now that sex outside of marriage is the norm, men are increasingly becoming unwilling to commit to long term relationships and the basic outcome is single-motherhood along with all the negative consequences entailed there-in.

Not to mention the discrimination went (and still goes) way beyond marriage.

Now you're shifting the goalposts. The point is you cannot create a social institution without enforcing that institution so that people respect it, and manifesting a norm necessarily entails an act of discrimination which cannot be avoided. The very act of telling good apart from bad is discrimination.

The radicals on the left expect that discrimination can be done away with entirely, but that's tantamount to claiming that anything goes, and nobody but the anarchists want to inhabit a society without any standards at all. So instead what we're dealing with is a cost/benefit calculation.

Good little mini-thread about why Walsh has potential to do some damage, even though he has no chance in hell.

In terms of damage, Walsh ain't doing jack. Here's why:

I disagree, but okay. Give me some policy proposals that you think are good ideas.

No, I'm not going to be baited into virtue signalling as you deem appropriate.

How is asking you what you think of policy issues and goals baiting you into virtue signalling?

The ones that prevent the West slipping into the same kinds of societal standards that turned the Soviet Union into Hell on Earth.

Truly, it would be terrible if the US were to degenerate into a hellscape like Australia, New Zealand, or Denmark.

MAP activism is already a fact. All the arguments that apply to homosexuality as a sexual orientation apply to MAPs, and the sole defence against normalising it, that the minor is too young to give informed consent has been obliterated by the advent of transtrending and giving minors life-altering hormone blockers and the like.

Nope, and the slippery slope fallacy about what marriage equality would lead to remains just as false as it always has.

An effort to respect Marriage as an institution that forms monogamous pair-bonds between males and females such that giving birth outside of those circumstances qualifies legally as an "illegitimate" birth, thus setting up a whole social system that makes marriage a meaningful social arrangement.

Do I agree with the idea of making sex acts outside of marriage illegal? No.

So how would you enforce it?

And either way, this is still absurd logical and moral reasoning. Discriminate against rafts of people on all sorts of issues (including issues unrelated to marriage) because you're trying to keep marriage an exclusive club.

But nevertheless marriage is the single most effective institution against combatting poverty ever to be invented.

Do you have a citation for that? Welfare institutions actually do pretty well. Better than anything else tried.

Although empowering women generally goes hand in hand with that.

And now that sex outside of marriage is the norm, men are increasingly becoming unwilling to commit to long term relationships and the basic outcome is single-motherhood along with all the negative consequences entailed there-in.

Single motherhood is at the lowest point in 50 years. Sex outside marriage has always been the norm.

And if you want to limit unwanted pregnancies, provide better access to education, healthcare, birth control, and legal abortion. All things conservatives oppose or stymie.

Now you're shifting the goalposts.

Nope. You shifted the goalposts by trying to ring-fence the discussion to marriage equality for some reason.

Trump suggested dropping nuclear bombs into hurricanes to stop them from hitting the U.S.

"People were astonished. After the meeting ended, we thought, 'What the f---? What do we do with this?'"

Of course.

 

[greg0205]

Went to my local for a pint yesterday. Drunk at the end of the bar was going on and on about dropping nukes on hurricanes to stop them making landfall...

Oh, no, wait...

That was POTUS.
