The Trump Administration is attempting, through its "America First" policy, to re-industrialize the US, thus breathing new life into the American proletariat.

In other words, American anti-globalism is domestic class conflict on a global scale, and President Trump is on the right side of history to that extent.


And by re-industrialise you mean go back to building fossil fuel factories? In that sense then he's on the wrong side of history.

Well done h8kurdt, you broke him.

choc e-Claire 10.23.2019 03:42 AM

Eh, because I've got nothing better to do: isn't moving to a post-fossil fuel society the better thing to do anyway? When we do rapidly move to renewable energy, and it turns out that we were wrong on climate change...how is it a bad thing?

choc e-Claire 10.23.2019 04:20 AM

Yeah, carbon capture technology is no doubt cool and helpful and could save us all. But, like - fossil fuel's going to keep adding carbon, and we'd have to keep capturing it.

This will absolutely get us some way back to climate equilibrium. And renewables would keep us there much better than recapturing carbon.

h8kurdt 10.23.2019 04:27 AM

Or you could look to the American cities and cities around the world that are getting most of their energy from renewable sources* and realise that shutting coal factories isn't the equivalent of throwing people out onto the streets. Accept fossil fuels and) is quickly becoming replaced by renewable energy. The people who still cling onto it (I'm including Trump and his lobbyist pals) are looking like relics

Funny how the Republicans favourite Republican Regan had a big hand in helping companies shut factories down and outsource to the very countries Republicans are now riling against.

You think you're championing the working class because you're blinkered by Trump's empty words.

Even if Trump has shown no intention of doing that?

It's about as witty and funny as a SNL sketch. Carry on if it humours you though.

The thought of him as US president is pretty scary. Could it happen?


Just saw this now and it really has come full circle hasn't it..scary times but hopeful for better times ahead.

I'm sorry, but - the US president keeping tabs on his potential (and eventual) successor? The 'traitor' thing would be to ignore it and just mentally check out for the last year of his presidency.

Speaking of...will be mildly interesting/vaguely horrifying to see what Trump does between November 4, 2020 and January 20, 2021.
(Or, [heaven forbid] November 6, 2024 and January 20, 2025.)

choc e-Claire 10.26.2019 04:25 AM

Oh, and (as far as I'm aware) Obama never sent the Secret Service to investigate a rapper - like Trump has done with Eminem, after being alerted by a TMZ employee.

Didn’t Bill Clinton teach us that 20 years ago?

All I’m pointing out is so far there is no evidence that the Trump campaign colluded.

Evidently Congress has information that Russia colluded with someone?? Guess what, they probably did.

The question is, who???

President Obama

Hillary Clinton or her campaign

Anyone else??????

All we know so far is there is not one single shred of evidence linking President Trump or his campaign.

A request is not the same as a subpoena!

What would happen if any of these witnesses destroyed their private cell phone in the same manner as Hillary Clinton?

Is their a Two-Tier Justice System??

Is it possible Robert Mueller wants the private cellphones so evidence can be implanted?

I’m surprised no one here hasn't asked why President Donald Trump hasn’t overturned Executive Order 12333???

Could it be our President will use this Executive Order to??????

Silly Juvenile, I’m not talking to myself......just a reminder of what I was pointing out over a year and a half ago.

My narrative and purpose hasn’t changed!!

Pointing out that Special Counsels are appointed to pursue known crimes and NOT to seek after possible crimes.

Understanding the DOJ was soooooo outside the scope of what they were authorized to investigate.

I knew then the chickens would eventually come home to roost.

In May 2018 I questioned if it was Obama, Hillary or her campaign who colluded with Russia? Not because I have hate towards DEMS, because I could clearly see what they were doing was wrong.

YES - eventually questioning if Obama’s actions were treasonous?

On June 7, 2018 I questioned why President Trump didn’t overturn Executive Order 12333?

“ FISA is a statute, so you’d need congressional action to change those rules, and you have a built-in check there. But 12333 is not constrained by statute; it’s constrained by executive order.”

Personally, I believe President Trump has known for a long time what deceptive extremes were taken to spy on him and his campaign.

No reason to kill the Mueller Report when you know it will prove you didn’t collude with Russia......and you know that the investigation into FISA, Mueller and Executive Order 12333 will reveal that President Obama used his position and influence to help Hillary Clinton win an election by colluding with Russia just so they might stand a chance against an Orange Cheeto who never held a public office.

The cherry on top of this EPIC FAIL will be people going to prison.
