The workers party. Plus we’ll keep the hispanics and muslims out. We’ll all come together as One People.
Make America great. We’ll close our borders, unite as One Country.
I will be the bestest President ever. You can rewrite the Consitution. You’ll never need nobody but me. One Leader.
I’ve heard this song before.
BEWARE of racism cloaked in the mantle of populism that presents itself as
“(White) workers rights”.
EDIT TO ADD; This is one of the biggest mistakes that some of the so-called progressives make. They think that the demo that Rump is targeting is all about economic issues. Don’t be fooled, look past the slogan. It’s the racism that he’s pushing to the fore NOT the economic issues.
A party of people that haven’t had a real wage increase in 18 years, that are angry. What I want to do, I think cutting Social Security is a big mistake for the Republican Party.”
David and Charles Koch are in danger of having fatal strokes… from laughing. Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of Sanders supporters are now furiously emailing each other…“See, I told you he wasn’t that bad… he’s on our side! He’s one of us! Hillary’s the real Republican! We can trust Trump!!”
So the Republican party is going to become one big happy “union”? LOL, they sure picked the wrong guy this time…
Power to the proletariat! Down with the bourgeoisie! Oh, wait. Donnie, are you sure?
He knows what he’s doing, as does the campaign team he says is in his demagogic head.
If only Bill Buckley could get a 3 day pass out of Hell for a visit and some cable interviews…
To a certain extent, the Dems have been lucky on this front. They don’t have to work that hard to show that much of Rump’s support (both in his base and on his own campaign) are straight up White supremacists. No way to get around it. This “shtick” won’t fly that far with the general public.
“You’re going to have a worker’s party. A party of people that haven’t had a real wage increase in 18 years, that are angry.
and now he thinks he’s Huey Long…
anyhow
Hardly ever agree with David Frumm, but he may be spot on here.
…populism is not at all the same thing as left-wing mistrust of profit-making. There are overlaps, but the differences are more important.
Populism does not divide the “haves” from the “have-nots” on a dollar basis. It divides the economic “them” from the “economic” us on a tribal and moral basis. In the 1890s, quite a rich man could be accepted as a Populist, even a Populist leader…
Populism did not condemn wealth. It condemned wealth that was earned and spent in ways that violated the moral sense of a particular community: whether railroading in the 1890s or international trade in the 1980s or global finance today. Populism’s wrath was directed not against economic superiors, but against economic aliens.
Which is why populism – both the capital “P” Populism of the 1890s and the lower case “p” populism that has flared at intervals ever since – was and remains compatible with racism and anti-semitism. To the extent that “the left” is defined by its hostility to tribal, ethnic and national distinctions, “populism” can never be a movement of “the left.” Xenophobia is as essential to populism as resentment is to socialism.

yep both A and B sides of the same republicon record
Knowing how utterly important handwritten notes are to this family, I wonder if JEB sends off a little Thank-You note to Poppy every time Trump humiliates him in public?
In the Bloomberg interview, Trump outlined a new vision for the GOP vastly different from the laissez-faire, hawkish, inclusive-to-minorities plan the party set forth after losing the 2012 presidential election. Trump’s Republican Party would restrict free trade, protect Social Security and push the U.S. to turn inwards.
As the billionaire mogul told Bloomberg, his new model for the party came from his own opinions and from chatting with Republican voters on the campaign trail rather than from “deep analysis.”
GOP Voter: “I want a unicorn and way too many lottery tickets.”
Trump: “No problem.”
His signature promise to build a wall along the southern U.S. border, he said, came not as a rejection of the GOP’s autopsy report but from an “instinctive” feeling that something had to be done about immigration.
Its a suggestion now…get it right.
“When I made my [announcement] speech at Trump Tower, the June 16 speech,” he told Bloomberg, “I didn’t know about the Gang of Eight. … I just knew instinctively that our borders are a mess.”
To all those who said that he didn’t know shine from shineola, you win.
He told the Detroit Free Press that companies should compete in low wage states to drive down wages everywhere as his fix for jobs. When did he every voluntarily pay more to his workers, when he wasn’t using illegals and mistreating them?
I can tell,ya Bernie supporters aren’t writein e-mails or sayin that… there not stupidly buyin into that drumpf BS
If your children don’t die in Trump’s wars, Trumpmerica will kill them…
I’ve heard this song before.
“Ein führer Ein volk, Bitches!” as sung by Toby Keith with Insane Clown Posse plus a special appearance by the Motor City Madman Ted Nugent.
While I had a hard time with Bill, when he said drugs should be legalized I have been able to use that “conservative” talking point quite a bit.
And watch that party unity theme that the media has been spinning since Indiana start unraveling…
Trump thinks that winning the nomination means he has an ironclad contract with all republican voters that they have to vote for him, so he can freely go off the reservation and do/say whatever pops into his head without any repercussions.
Comments like this are going to quickly disavow him of those notions.
what he really means is that all the workers are chumps and that they’ll be working for him for chump change…
‘never smarten up a chump’ WC Fields…
