America Today: “Easily Duped and Way Off Course” but Getting There Anyway

Gavin McInnes, the Master, the Scottish-born, ex-Canadian, punk rock maestro, devoutly Catholic family man, the doctor of post-hipster analysis of the American condition, has written an excellent opinion piece in Taki’s Mag about the Trump phenomenon and some of the signs of why it’s a good thing in the crazy, screwed up, cultural hash that America has become.

McInnes’ insight is that you have to look at the “crybaby generation’s” take on things, because they determine the outcome of elections, like it or not. People like the idiots who write for Rolling Stone magazine, for example. “The crybaby generation is driving this boat and they don’t know how to drive. This is what’s so great about Trump. In an era where dupes are easily led, you need a great leader.”

Gavin McInnes

Gavin McInnes


And by “great leader,” McInnes is talking about a leader who doesn’t put up with the whining classes’ bullsh*t. That’s Trump all over. The magic of this is that after years of conservative leaders being too timid to stand up to the spoiled babies on the left, and getting nowhere, Trump is exactly the “strong daddy figure” that the millenials and assorted lefties really want, even if they won’t admit it. Read the article, and you’ll see examples of how the hip, young pundits are writing about Trump with the thinly-disguised admiration of trust-fund brats who are finally ready to go to work for Daddy’s business. McInnes explains this in the politically-incoherent way that only he can:

The Democrats, the mainstream media, neocons, liberals, and college kids are all part of the same hive. They want to fight but they don’t want to win. They’re like that crazy Latina girlfriend in a screaming panic who won’t shut up until you grab her by the wrists and say, “Shut the f*&k up. I got this.” We need to throw her onto the couch, grab a beer, and get back to work. That’s ultimately what she wants too. She just doesn’t realize it yet.

And the best part? “I still believe Trump is a snowplow who is paving the way for Ted Cruz. At the last second, he endorses Cruz and we get all the bravado of the former with the brains of the latter.” I concur. Fingers crossed. Cross-Posted and Bowdlerized from Blog of Monte Cristo.

Trump Toons

My little collection of fave Donald funnies has hit critical mass, so I’m going to dump them on ya today. You’re welcome! 🙂 Stay tuned for extra texty goodness below by Stilton Jarlsberg and Mark Steyn!

2015_09 21 Trump on Obama's faith by Stilton Jarlsberg PN

One of the dumbest political stories to get traction in recent days (and trust us, that’s a pretty high bar to clear) relates to a townhall meeting in which an audience member referred to Barack Hussein Obama as a Muslim and – horror of horrors! – Donald Trump didn’t immediately declare that Barry is actually a Christian and, in all likelihood, the Second Coming.

Granted, Obama is widely known for his declarations that when times get tough he’ll “stand with Islam,” that “the future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam,” that ISIS (“Islamic State”) is not Islamic, and that Christians in flyover country are bitter little people who “cling to guns and religion.”

But he also says that he’s a Christian (albeit one who avoids church like the plague, seems awfully vague on Scripture, and has been instrumental in ramping up government harrassment of Christians) – so where does the truth lie? And why is it Donald Trump’s job to figure out whether to believe Obama’s words or his actions (you can’t do both) and explain it to everyone else?

The always-brilliant Mark Steyn has a lot to say on the subject and you should definitely follow the link to his piece [http://www.steynonline.com/7188/get-lost-you-palace-guard-creep]. Even though we at Hope n’ Change aren’t religious, when Steyn brings down Hell and damnation on the hypocrites pushing this story, he makes us believe.

Preach it, Mr. Stinky Cheese Man!

TRUMP and Obama logo PN

EXCERPTS from Mark Steyn’s awesome screed:

“Why does one Republican candidate’s “scandal” get hung around the neck of every other guy’s? I’ll answer your question to me about Donald Trump’s ‘gaffe’ after you ask Bernie Sanders, Martin O’Malley, Lincoln Chafee and Joe Biden about Hillary Clinton’s server and how she handled Benghazi. Till then, get lost.”

“And frankly, whatever the President’s personal faith, there is no dispute that his leadership of the western world has been an utter catastrophe for Christians around the planet. Some of the oldest Christian communities on earth have been entirely extinguished on Obama’s watch: in Mosul, Iraq, which was an American protectorate on the day he took office, not a single Christian remains. Every single one of them is dead or fled. So, instead of jumping through your preposterous hoops and speaking up for the most powerful man in the world, I would rather speak up for the powerless – for the Nigerian schoolgirls, for the Yazidi, for the Copts in Egypt, and for all the other beleaguered Christian communities in the world this feckless president has set alight and watched burn.”

A VIDEO REVIEW OF LAST NIGHT’S CIRCUS

Full confession: I was up late trying to watch the canine and equine performance and didn’t quite make it. There’s so much to cover I’m going to break it into two parts. Most of you have seen some or all of the debate, others may have a life and actually missed it. This is the entire nearly three hour show for the truly masochistic and a lot of short segments with highlights broken down into very short soundbites. If you only have a short time to browse I urge you to watch the exchange between The Donald and Carly Fiorina, who was absolutely amazing. Her comment on Iran and Planned Parenthood was the absolute best.

This is the NY Slimes idea of highlights of the food fight

This got the highst meter rating:
She butchers him like a trussed-up cow

THIS IS IT!!!!

RAND PAUL AND ONE OF THE AMNESTY TWINS, JEB OR MARCO, I DON’T RECALL WHICH, WERE DISCUSSING DRUG TREATMENT. CARLY SHUT THE WHOLE TOPIC DOWN WHEN SHE REVEALED SOMETHING I NEVER KNEW

THIS BROUGHT THE HOUSE DOWN…DON’T MESS WITH W!!!

Bush: 40 years ago I smoked marijuana, I admit it…

THIS WAS OUTSTANDING FROM CHRISTIE

Chris Christie talks about defunding Planned Parenthood

Fiorina: I wouldn’t change the 10 or 20 dollar bill

Sen. Cruz: Planned Parenthood a ‘criminal enterprise…

Trump, Bush square off over casinos in Florida

Walker to Trump: ‘We don’t need an apprentice in the White House

Bush: Trump should apologize to my wife

Gov. Mike Huckabee compares Donald Trump to Mr. T

Donald Trump: ‘Rand Paul should not be on this stage…’

YOU WERE WORKING, I WAS WATCHING

There was a massive rally in DC today to stop the Iran Deal. Noted conservatives Mark Levin, Ted Cruz, Phil Robertson, Sarah Palin, and The Donald, whose party is unclear. There were thousands of pissed-off patriots in attendance, although the news outlets will put it at “hundreds” or a “sizable’ crowd. In the end, it will make little difference since we are largely ignored by the DC gasbags who want our money and votes but not our voices. They’d just as soon we sat down and shut up. Not gonna happen.

I have posted the videos so you can view the ones you want.
No additional charge

THIS IS THE ENTIRE RALLY… IT RUNS 4 HOURS

TRUMP DEFEATS RAMOS ON A TKO

To be clear, I trust Donald Trump about as far as I can pick him up and throw him. Still,you have to enjoy the way he stands up to the media thugs that always seem to intimidate faux conservatives into aplogizing if they have the temerity to speak truth to power; e.g. Trent Lott’s comments at Strom Thurmond’s birthday party and Romney stating that 47% of welfare leeches vote democrat. They were forced to apologize ad nauseum, much to the sadistic delight of the leftards.

Trump doesn’t play their game. That’s a very large part of his appeal…. finally somebody who won’t kiss the media’s collective asses. There was a minor skirmish at the presser following the rally in Dubuque, Iowa yesterday. Unlike the phony “Sister Souljah” setup orchestrated for Bent Penis to look tough, the animosity between Trump and the Cockroach appears genuine.

Ann Coulter introduced him at the rally:

THE DONALD’S FULL SPEECH

‘Go back to Univision’: Trump loses it as he goes head to-head over immigration with Spanish-language anchor Jorge Ramos and has him escorted out of Iowa press conference
Univision’s Jorge Ramos spoke out of turn at conference in Dubuque, Iowa
Trump told journalist: ‘Sit down, you weren’t called… Go back to Univision’
Security escorted Ramos from the room but he was allowed to return
Trump took his questions about immigration policy and anchor babies
Univision didn’t show Miss USA pageant after comments about Mexicans
Trump previously banned Univision staff from Trump National Doral Miami
Said ‘anyone who wants strong borders’ should boycott network in protest
Previously published note showing personal phone number of Ramos

THIS IS HOW YOU HANDLE LIBERAL ASSCLOWNS

DIANNY NAILED THE SIMILARITY TO ANOTHER LIBERAL PUDDLE OF OBNOXIOUS BILE:

The Medea Benjamin of Television

Posted on August 26, 2015 by Dianny

Proving he is about as much a “journalist” as Code Pink, Latino Television personality Jorge Ramos crashed Donald Trump’s Iowa press conference yesterday and shouted questions at him as Trump attempted to call on reporters.

The Medea Benjamin of television was promptly escorted from the room for refusing to wait until Trump called on him.

Let’s face it, Jorge Ramos isn’t a journalist. He’s an activist and protester.

When Ramos sneaked back into the press conference, Trump finally let him ask a question and attempted to answer. But Ramos, like Code Pink, believes that you don’t ask questions and wait for answers. Instead, you just keep talking over the person you’ve just asked a question to.

Because Ramos isn’t a “journalist.” He isn’t a “reporter.” He is an open borders activist with a TV show.

He is the Leading member of Code Red-White-and-Green.

I NEVER REALIZED

Iowa is the state right next to mine. It is about 60 miles west of where I live. I’ve had occasion to visit it numerous times. I realized it was a pretty large tract of land. I never imagined it would be big enough to hold the massive egos of Killary and The Donald at the same time! They both visited the state fair on Saturday.

The Butcher of Benghazi spent 1 1/2 hours pretending to be a champion of “the little people” before she jetted off to Martha’s Vineyard to join Bent Penis and the current House Negroes. She eschewed the press shouting questions, preferring to spout her lies then walk away.

Americans don’t care about my emails – they never ask me about them, claims Clinton as she descends on the Iowa State Fair
‘We’ll see how this all plays out, but it’s not anything that people talk to me about around the country,’ she said
Clinton dropped into the Iowa State Fair for an hour and a half; she treated herself to a pork chop on a stick and a lemonade before leaving
She held a press conference and mingled with fair-goers as a barnyard worth of press chased her around

Clinton said she believes attendees of her events are interested in learning about what she would do to boost the economy, lower the cost of college and student debt, ensure workplace equality for women, as well as persons with disabilities ‘and so much more.’

‘And that’s what I talk about on the campaign trail,’ she said.

I HATE HAVING TO DO THIS CRAP!

SHE LOOKS LIKE THE SOULLESS MACHINE SHE IS…CHECK OUT THE STEPFORD EYES

Obama and the Clintons: Top Dems mingle on Martha’s Vineyard
I’M STILL THE MAN

Occasional golf partners, Obama and Clinton had crossed paths the day before as both played separately on another golf course on the Vineyard. Rounding out their foursome on the waterside course Saturday were former Ambassador Ron Kirk and civil rights figure Vernon Jordan. Both Clintons were on the guest list for Jordan’s 80th birthday party on Saturday night, along with the president, first lady Michelle Obama and daughters Sasha and Malia

Donald Trump breaks the rules at the Iowa State Fair
There are a few golden rules when it comes to campaigning in Iowa: never arrive by helicopter, leave your entourage at home and don’t skip the Des Moines Register soapbox, even if you have to brave hecklers.

But the normal rules of politics don’t apply to Donald Trump, who broke all of them during his visit to the Iowa State Fair on Saturday.

Trump made a grand entrance by touching down in a $7 million helicopter. He was thronged by supporters as he walked the fairgrounds and eschewed the soapbox — where Iowans are encouraged to shout questions to candidates — in favor of often random interactions with voters.

The day provided the latest illustration of how Trump, the GOP presidential frontrunner, is upending the race by ignoring conventional wisdom and running his campaign exactly how he wants to. The strategy stood in sharp contrast to Hillary Clinton, who lost the caucuses here in 2008 after she also broke some of this state’s cherished rules.

She took fewer risks on Saturday….
IT’S ALL JUST A BIG JOKE WHEN YOU KNOW NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO YOU

YOU CAN’T SAY THE DONALD DOESN’T KNOW HOW TO ATTRACT ATTENTION

THE BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM IS TRUMP OWNS HIS STUFF. IT’S NOT COURTESY OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OR SOME FOREIGN TINPOT.

Bloomberg Politics’ Mark Halperin and ABC’s Martha Raddatz were invited along for the ride. When asked if the helicopter fanfare was a bit too much, Trump said, “It’s me, I am who I am.”

THE TRUMPETEER GAZETTE

Well, that’s what the Donald fan club has taken to calling itself. Relax, there’s so much Trump stuff I’m doing two separate posts. As you can well imagine, Trump was all over the talking heads shows yesterday. They love him. They can make fun of him while he’s beating up on other republicans so they don’t need to do it.
I for one took issue with the verbal attacks launched by the Fox inquisitors. I always thought debates were questions posed to some or all of the participants, not singling out one candidate for examination. I wish Trump would have said: Megyn, I’ll be happy to come on your show to answer personal questions, but a debate should be an open forum. Of course, he didn’t, because he craves the attention.
It’s looking more and more to me that The Donald is a plant to create chaos and fully intends to go third party if he doesn’t get the nomination, which I don’t see happening. Hopefully he implodes and people see him for the charlatan he is. In an interview he made the comment ‘she had blood coming out of her eyes, she had blood coming out of wherever.’ Of course, people took that as a woman’s monthly cycle. He came back with: if you think that, you have a dirty mind, or something along those lines.
Hopefully the feeding frenzy will subside but given Trump’s reputation for showmanship I don’t see that happening.

John McCain: The pampered son and grandson of four-star Navy admirals

Trump McCain

Donald Trump may be a clown, but I am inclined to think he has a point about John McCain. McCain has campaigned on his “war hero” military record for his entire political career, but the facts about his time in the Navy suggest he has more in common with Ted Kennedy than he ever did with any genuine war hero.

When he was graduated from the Naval Academy in 1958, McCain’s class rank was 894 … out of 899. Five from the BOTTOM. In less than three years, he was written up more than two dozen times on charges of drunk-and-disorderly, fraternization, disobeying orders, and insubordination. Yet, somehow … let me think why … he was stationed at a Navy champagne unit and promoted ahead of all but two of his 898 other classmates.

During his training years, he managed to crash three U.S. Navy jets out of sheer incompetence. In today’s military, one such lapse would end a pilot’s career. Standards may have been a bit looser in the 1960s, but it beggars belief that McCain kept flying after THREE crashes for any reason other than family connections.

McCain claimed in his autobiography that the first crash was due to engine failure. But the Naval Aviation Safety Center found no evidence of engine failure. Their conclusion was that he had used “a power setting too low to maintain level flight in a turn.” In other words, the plane crashed because of pilot error. Yet they let him continue flying.

His second crash happened while he was clowning around, flew too low and took out some power lines, causing a blackout. Again, his own fault … yet he was not grounded. In fact, he was allowed to fly solo in a Navy training jet to see the Army-Navy football game in Philadelphia; on the way home, he crashed for the third time.

Shortly thereafter, he was promoted to squadron commander of the air field named after his own grandfather!

In 1967, he was shot down during his 23rd mission over North Vietnam and spent the rest of the war as a POW. For his approximately 20 hours worth of missions over enemy territory, he was awarded 28 medals. Twenty-eight!

Methinks The Donald is right. John McCain is about as much of a military hero as Ted Kennedy was a champion of women.

Josh Earnest: Republicans are RAAAACIST, y’all.

July 9, 2015: WH Press Secretary Josh Earnest began today’s presser with a sweeping denunciation of Republicans as RAAAAAAACISTS. Just listen to the first minute of this and keep in mind this is the WHITE HOUSE.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/photos-and-video/video/2015/07/09/press-briefing

FACT CHECK:

2015_07 08 SC flag

Donald Trump is the individual Earnest cites as the “leading presidential candidate” (huh?) who is a known race-baiter. I googled “Donald Trump race baiter” and got a bunch of hits, all in left-wing rags like HuffPo. The actual quotes that are slammed as “racist” appear to be terrible, horrible, no-good statements of facts about black crime rates and the like. OMG … those RAAAACIST facts! And those RAAACISTS who say them out loud!

Rep. Steve Scalise is the individual Earnest quotes as having said he was “like David Duke without the baggage.” By this, he meant that he supported the same policy ideas as David Duke, but that he didn’t have the same negative feelings about minorities as the former Ku Klux Klan leader. But Josh … really! Don’t let a little thing like CONTEXT get in the way of your slandering the entire GOP … cuz, you know, TOLERANCE.
