It’s not an either/or. He’s both.
She added that she would not classify Trump as a fascist, as her definition of a fascist is “somebody who uses violence to achieve what he wants.”
Uh…Um…gimme a minute…
Donald Trump? Popular? Who does this wanker think he is?
She’s not wrong, but she IS understating!
Very weak tea, fit for British consumption. Trump is the antithesis of everything democratic. Perhaps the British will recognize this as a parody of typical British understatement.
My belief is Trump is using violence by not condemning white supremacists.
He is keeping them in his back pocket if real Americans turn against him,he will release the brown shirts.
Already known by most of the world… this does not change anything with his base except possibly give them one more reason to support him. After all he ( and they by extension) are being demonized by “the elite.”
her definition of a fascist is “somebody who uses violence to achieve what he wants.”
Trump doesn’t use violence because he gets other people to use violence on his behalf. “Will no one rid me of these meddlesome reporters?”
.“I don’t think President @realDonaldTrump is a fascist,” says @madeleine, “I do think he’s the most undemocratic president in modern American history.”
Yes, especially true if you define "modern American History" as commencing in 1789.
She fled a fascist regime in Czechoslovakia so she knows.
Pretty sure he’s referring to the interviewer. Note the “he”.
He’s also the most incompetent president in modern American history. Whiny is convinced everyone wants to sell to America so bad that they will put up with any tariff he cares to slap on things.
Mnuchin was absolutely flabbergasted when other counties started putting tariffs on things like Jack Daniels, ketchup and lawn mowers. All stuff made in the states he won. This is the Secretary of the Treasury.
Meanwhile, China’s buy 800 million pounds of soybeans from Brazil instead of US, Harley-Davidson’s opening a plant in Europe, Carrier is moving jobs to Mexico after taking his bribe to stay abd GM is taking about laying off lots of people if his steel tariff thing holds All courtesy of the Whiny Dealmaker.
Those three tariffs alone will ruin the summertime weekends of millions of proles.
Twitter is all over what she said in this interview. It’s ugly.
If there’s a tariff on potato salad I’m gonna lose all hope.
Not really a response to what I said.
Since when did the definition of a fascist necessarily include the use of violence?
Who does this wanker think he is?
Well, since she fled Czechoslovakia, my guess would be THIS guy:
If kidnapping thousands of children isn’t violent, I don’t know what is.
