Not a populist. Drumpf is more of a pustule.

Not bad and I understand you need to be restrained where I don’t, but to be more specific:

Saying something racist doesn’t make you populist.

The President had to pull his punches since there were other heads of government standing by him.

Trump is a right wing populist through and through.

Sanders is a left wing populist.

The expression on Prexy’s face in this article was worth 10,000 words. I have been around entertainers most of my life. That look was a nightclub comic’s dream.

The only question I have at this point in time is whether Hair Furor will have a mental breakdown before or after the RNC in Cleveland.

He’s not even as close to being a populist as Huey Long. Drumpf is more of a fascist bully-boy.

Hmmm.

Sounds familiar.

Two jabs in one?

I see @expatgirl beat me to it.

Silly.

Nice hat tip to the Bernie bros by the President also, too.

Saying controversial (read: stupid) things may not make you a populist but it definitely gets you the “What in the hell is wrong with you?!” stare from your opponent (and most everyone else). Interesting choice of pictures. :laughing:

I can’t even imagine a debate at this point.

I don’t want to.

it would’ve been better if Professor Obama had explained the difference in populist and popular to Donnie Dipshit using small words…

Obama nailed it – Trump’s a charlatan, a swindler, a con man. His “Make America Great Again” pseudo-populist drivel is just his latest hustle. Which is plain to see for everyone – everyone except the suckers, the sweet, sweet suckers…
