Think for a second about the fucking nonsense he has had to deal with the last 8 years and then imagine he actually went whole hog on liberal policy at any point in his tenure. All out insurrection? Potential race war? Just being a black democrat president alone, gun manufacturing levels doubled during his presidency.

Should of spent less time on the golf course, though with retirement on the horizon, and lucrative Wall Street consultancies to look forward, it could be the difference between Goldman Sachs and Merrill Lynch Bank of America. Get the hours on the green, will make a difference down the road. Wasted opportunity. He should have done much more and not tried to reason with a party that clearly hates him for his colour. Wall Street chose well, they knew he would not rock the boat.

Obama: At least he got to party with Beyonce and Jay-Z in the White House, not bad for a 10 year stint. Not one criminal conviction for Wall Street after the financial crisis they precipitated. Tried fucking consensus politics with an increasingly militant/crazy Republican party, and finally pushed through a healthcare bill that fell way short of what it should have been and is quickly being repealed by the House Republicans. Still, had some great parties with Jay-Z and Beyonce at the White House. And I think his golf handicap has come down. Trump/Carson Presidency for me. Will sort out the big issues we face.

You think Trump will be any different when it comes to Wall Street? He's corporate Americas poster boy.

Amd you criticise Obama for being concensual with the Republicans but support someone whose so far to the right he makes Cameron look like a Liberal?!?! That doesn't make sense to me

Heh.  Ted Cruz is surging in Iowa and is within the margin of error of Trump's numbers, 23 to 25 percent.

The bad news is that Cruz is a politically smarter version of Ben Carson, from whom he has been siphoning support.

A bit OTT from me. But it should have been a lot better. He wasted a great opportunity to bring in progressive policies by trying to be a consensus politician against Tea Party nuts. And yeah fuck celebrity culture. Looking at how the clown race is shaping up, at least they will get another go at it. I don't hold out much hope with Hillary. Prefer to see how long a Trump government will last. Just for the entertainment value alone.

Obviously not. In my defence, it is a criticism made by people paid to comment and report on such things. They hail from America. And tend to be based in Washington.

New York Times slams 'outrageous' Donald Trump for mocking reporter's disability

The New York Times has criticised Donald Trump as “outrageous” after the Republican presidential front-runner mocked one of its reporters and appeared to imitate his disability.
 
In a speech to supporters on Tuesday night, Trump derided Serge Kovaleski – a reporter for the newspaper who has disputed Trump’s claim that “thousands” of Muslims in New Jersey celebrated the 9/11 attacks – while flailing and twisting his arms.

Kovaleski has arthrogryposis, a congenital condition that affects joint movement.

In 2001, he was a journalist at the Washington Post and one of the authors of a report cited by Trump in defence of his 9/11 claim. (The Washington Post has since added a disclaimer to the report, distancing it from the claims.)

The 2001 report said that “law enforcement authorities [in Jersey City] detained and questioned a number of people who were allegedly seen celebrating the attacks and holding tailgate-style parties on rooftops”.

In the wake of Trump’s insistence that “thousands and thousands of people were cheering” as the World Trade Center was destroyed, Kovaleski this week said he did not recall “anyone saying there were thousands, or even hundreds, of people celebrating”.

“We did a lot of shoe leather reporting in and around Jersey City and talked to a lot of residents and officials for the broader story. Much of that has, indeed, faded from memory.

“I do not recall anyone saying there were thousands, or even hundreds, of people celebrating. That was not the case, as best as I can remember,” he told CNN.

On Tuesday evening, at a rally in South Carolina, Trump tore into this account, telling supporters: “Now the poor guy. You ought to see the guy: ‘Err, I don’t know what I said. I don’t remember.’

“He’s going: ‘I don’t remember. Maybe that’s what I said.’”

As he spoke, Trump waved his arms around and held his hand in front of his chest in a claw-like position.

“The sad part about it is, it didn’t in the slightest bit jar or surprise me that Donald Trump would do something this low-rent, given his track record,” Kovaleski told the Washington Post.

A spokesperson for the New York Times told Politico: “We think it’s outrageous that he would ridicule the appearance of one of our reporters.”

Trump has not commented directly on his latest controversy, but on Wednesday sent several tweets attacking the New York Times.

To be fair to Trump, he has the Islamophobic and anti-Latino vote all tied up, so he's just expanding his appeal to the anti-disabilities demographic.

Sure, it's a pretty niche constituency, but you can't overlook any voter in such a tight race.

I believe he's going after the gingers in December.

Rude Pundit on the Planned Parenthood shooting....

Notes on an Act of Domestic Terrorism

When it comes to labeling the mass shooting at a Planned Parenthood in Colorado Springs, Colorado, by the anthropomorphic turd named Robert Dear, it shouldn't matter if said shitpiece is bugfuck insane or not. You can be completely eye-rolling, head-beating, moon-howling crazy and still be a fucking terrorist. You might be That Fucking Crazy Terrorist (as if sanity is something that terrorists generally have), but you're still a fucking terrorist. So let's dispense with all the polite bullshit reserved for white, domestic terrorists, like excusing them from the "terrorist" label for being batshit or whatever.

The only reason to say that the violent assault on a family planning clinic wasn't "terrorism" is for fear of upsetting the yahoos in the so-called "pro-life" movement. Fuck them. Fuck everything about them. Fuck their movement. Fuck their churches. Fuck their leaders. Fuck their followers. Fuck them all. You know why they so broadly need to be fucked? Because they are liars. They are liars to themselves and to others.

Now, here's something really politically incorrect to say, not fake political incorrectness, like Ben Carson talks about: If you knew that, in a house down the street, someone was murdering babies, you'd fucking do whatever it took to stop them. You'd get in there and take those babies away so they're not murdered. This is the biggest goddamn lie in the anti-choice rhetoric. Most of the anti-choicers know good and goddamn well that abortion and infanticide are two very different things because if they honestly believed that an abortion is the same as taking an infant out of a stroller and killing it, then they are fucking monsters to allow it to continue. So either they are cowards or they are liars and, except for a few of the craziest motherfuckers in the movement, they know in their heart of hearts that abortion is not murder. You know why they know it's not murder? Because they can't bust down a door and rescue a baby because that baby isn't a baby. It's a fetus attached to a woman who doesn't want you to fucking rescue her.

That's the great cosmic joke of nearly the entire anti-abortion belief system. You know that it's mostly just manipulative fuckers at organizations like the Family Research Council and politicians like, well, everyone in the GOP. And they're trying to squeeze money out of the yokels and, because in many cases their church is involved, the yokel parishioners, like yokels and rubes throughout history, will try to please their shepherds. The sheep might not wanna go into the goddamn pen, but they will because they are fucking sheep. The anti-choice movement is a scam, and the attacks, verbal and physical, on women's health centers and family planning clinics, are the pinnacle of a great con.

And that brings us to Robert Dear, another gun-toting, redneck shitheel who succeeded in murdering a devoted Christian police officer, an Iraq War vet, and a stay-at-home mom, an iconic triumvirate of conservative values. Between them, Garrett Swasey, Ke'Arre Stewart, and Jennifer Markovsky were parents to six children. And, while it matters not one whit if any of them or all of them were there for abortions, even by the low bar of stopping the selling of "baby parts," as Dear told cops he was attempting to do, this domestic terrorist was an utter failure, like he was at life.

But fuck Dear. Instead, look at the bullshit being spouted by the supposed leaders of the Republican Party, the same cocksuckers who lied about Planned Parenthood "selling" fetus parts in order to, in many cases, help medical science advance. The sentient syphilis virus known as Carly Fiorina said, "Any protesters should always be peaceful. Whether it's Black Lives Matter or pro-life protesters." Except the turd wasn't protesting. He was shooting a fucking automatic weapon. Where did that happen in any Black Lives Matter marches? She continued by attacking Planned Parenthood for daring to suggest that hateful things said by people like Fiorina might have inspired the shooter: "This is so typical of the left to immediately begin demonizing a messenger because they don't agree with the message." Fiorina was the worst of a terrible bunch, which included Ted "We don't why he did it, but he might be transgender" Cruz, Donald "People hate Planned Parenthood" Trump, and Mike "This is terrorism against the pro-life movement" Huckabee. None of them mourned the dead without adding some self-serving fuckery about how they're not involved.

But they will continue to say, over and over, that babies are being mutilated so cruel butchers can profit off their organs. They will dare to accuse the doctors and nurses of savagery. They will promote false videos as reality. The anti-choice movement's leaders, religious and political, will continue to wink to each other as they repeatedly tell their followers that they must do something to stop Planned Parenthood.

They will inspire more terrorism by more Robert Dears, just as they had inspired the killers and arsonists and bombers before him. Truly, they are the same as any ISIS propagandist. And they will wash their hands of the blood that is spilled by people who can quote their foul words back to them.

“(Trump's) so classic that I’m archiving video clips of him to use in workshops because there’s no better example of his characteristics,” said clinical psychologist George Simon, who conducts lectures and seminars on manipulative behavior. “Otherwise, I would have had to hire actors and write vignettes. He’s like a dream come true.”

...

(Developmental psychologist Howard Gardner, a professor at Harvard Graduate School of Education) said, “For me, the compelling question is the psychological state of his supporters. They are unable or unwilling to make a connection between the challenges faced by any president and the knowledge and behavior of Donald Trump. In a democracy, that is disastrous.”

Not the least bit surprised. All the media need to do is remember what he says. Soon he will contradict himself. It shouldn't be too difficult to make his image fall like a house of cards. Not with all the attention he gets. If I was a journalist, I'd consider it a noble thing to make him fall.

Trump's lead up to 20% ... Wtf?


http://edition.cnn.com/2015/12/04/politics/donald-trump-poll-cnn-orc-national/index.html

Nate Silver was explaining the methodology of that poll was poor. The first five questions they asked were on immigration, which is basically Trump's entire platform, then on GOP presidential preference.  The last time they polled like that Trump's support was similar.

A lead, not necessarily a big one. Basically a 9% bump due to polling questions.

Classy. Yyuuuuge.

It looks like Trump 'wrote' a book called 'Nippled America' too

I hate to break it to you but Trump is way beyond contradicting himself. He doesn't give a fuck about consistency or truth. At all.

True. The media should be able to connect the dots and so should the people. I expect someone to be able to reveal what he really is like.

Trump is thriving (at least in these polls) off the excessive media coverage he's being given, regardless of the fact a lot of it is negative. He's probably received more than the other runners put together.

It was edited. There is some video of it out there and he gets a few claps. Still pathetic and desperate.

Yes. I think that's true. He'll function like "1984". He feeds off new stories, the story of the day or the minute. In "1984" the old messages are destroyed, and the only truth is the last one. That's Trump. So in 'this moment', when questioned, he'll look strong. But he's also the Emperor without clothes. It's 'just' a matter of revealing the true picture of him. The media will be extremely incompetent if he gets the Republican vote.
