How I Became A Nationalist


Once Upon A Time, Before The Recent Election, I was a 'Progressive'

There's a move underway deep in the recesses of our collective subconscious that has turned the ideologies of the past on their heads and inside out. Whether you're an American or belong to some other nation, there is no longer the usual “left/right” or “conservative/liberal” dynamic at play, though corporate 'mainstream' media is still trying to hide this fact from the remaining pockets of the naive still trusting them to tell the truth. If ONLY they could go back to the Tweedledee versus Tweedledum days, it would make it easier, but that cat has long since left that bag. For most of the Interested Few, that is, though there are still quite a few members of the intelligentsia that have been too insulated and in too deep to their paymasters to even allow themselves to question how separated their views have become from the rhetoric they politically have espoused for years.

It's not so much that my values have changed, it's that the Establishment, through its control of the institutions that run our lives, has changed the language and approach. It is still a question of the powerful maintaining control over the opinions of the masses of the powerless. Since it's come to light in recent times that such powerful people as the Rockefellers have used their 'philanthropy' not necessarily to improve the quality of life for the masses, but to ensure the progressive dumbing-down of them, it's led even traditional, die-hard Republicans to reconsider whether the ultra-rich are worthy of emulation or castigation. Think I'm crazy? Then check out the contents of John D. Rockefeller's “Occasional Letter #1”, often accredited to his employee Rev. Francis Gates (who ran his General Education Board) in 1913 who had this to say about educating Americans:

In our dream we have limitless resources, and the people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding hand.  The present educational conventions fade from our minds; and, unhampered by tradition, we work our own good will upon a grateful and responsive rural folk.  We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of learning or of science.  We are not to raise up among them authors, orators, poets, or men of letters.  We shall not search for embryo great artists, painters, musicians.  Nor will we cherish even the humbler ambition to raise up from among them lawyers, doctors, preachers, statesmen, of whom we now have ample supply."

Yes, some will argue, that may have been said but it was intended for RURAL, as opposed to urban or suburban schools. The context was the “Country School of Tomorrow”, in which the squalid conditions of primarily southern rural schools was decried in favor of improved conditions for which Rockefeller would even pay a million-dollar bonus if the conditions were met (in the South). In fact he went on to give $180 million to his “General Education Board” that Rev. Gates administered, after the US Congress chartered it in January of 1903, but like other philanthropic endeavors by the ultra-rich, there were more nefarious agendas at work behind this largesse. After all, to take the attitude that normally is reserved only for God, or a divine force, is outstandingly arrogant of such powerful men. To think that they should have the right to mold the public in such a manner! Does excessive wealth really and truly confer such rights on the elites? Perhaps this is the reason why we may no longer feel so 'blessed' as a nation.

Nonetheless, it's clear from what is said that Rockefeller and his cohort felt they had not only the right but a moral duty to dumb-down the masses, even as they raised them up in material circumstances so that while they had a minimum to survive, they wouldn't be 'raised up' to be anything more than farmers and ranchers. This attitude became even more pronounced when that same Rockefeller uttered his famous quote “competition is a sin”. Oh really now! I wonder how many contemporary Republicans know that's how John D. Rockefeller really and truly felt? Why, that's a downright socialist idea, isn't it?! The nerve; saying that the very thing that has given “American exceptionalism” its pudding-proof is a “sin”!

Then there's the tale of “Philip Dru, Administrator”, which was written by Colonel House, Pres. Woodrow Wilson's 'handler' who passed orders to him by those elitists that were referred to in his famous quote, the one in which Wilson says “Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.”

Col. House's book about Philip Dru was supposed to be a utopia, a book about which Google has this to say: “First published (anonymously) in 1912, this novel describes for the overthrow of the U.S. government in favor of a socialist regime.”. Bewildering, isn't it? Wasn't this the power-behind-the-throne that had spent years setting the stage for the Federal Reserve, the subtle seizure of the money-making power of the United States by a handful of foreign banking interests, as detailed in “The Creature From Jekyl Island”, the following year – coincidentally the same year as the Rockefeller quote above? And all these things were said and done a year before WWI began? Ultra-rich bankers aren't usually thought of as being socialist who are against competition, are they? What's wrong with this picture?


It gets even worse, but first let's revisit the traditional ideological split, when 'progressives' were the American version of European 'socialists', and represented the 'left'. Typically these were the intellectuals, the intelligentsia of academia and publishing, student activists and environmentalists, doctors and others involved in the medical field, lawyers representing the indigent and down-trodden, and govt employees. The 'right' was exemplified by entrepreneurs, businessmen, financiers, the military, fundamentalist clergy, and lawyers employed by business interests. Socialism was the ultimate expression of the 'left', and fascism the ultimate expression of the 'right'. Hippies had long hair and stock-brokers wore button-down collars.

During the 2016 presidential election, these concepts were turned on their heads. The electorate was turned on its head, it's world turned upside down. The dividing line placed both fascists and socialists in the same Establishment camp, which continued to brainwash the 99% of the public they needed to vote for them, and those in the 99% who had 'awoken', who recognized what had happened, backed the brash billionaire who openly challenged the Establishment the way a true punk-rocker would challenge the music 'industry'. In fact, punk-rockers have grandchildren now, who no longer live in a world with a real counter-culture any longer. The traditional political terms stopped working. The supposed 'leftist' candidate, after openly and arrogantly stealing the nomination from the real winner who was a socialist in the classic sense, was considered the most corrupt politician in modern political history, with pay-to-play schemes and a blatant trail of murder indicating this was NOT the most compassionate, tolerant and transparent candidate ever. Quite the opposite, in fact. More so, this supposed 'leftist' candidate seemed to have sold access to the highest bidder, sold national resources to potentially hostile powers, enacted policies abroad that made it unsafe anywhere on Earth for an American to go to without being fearful, whose campaign arrogantly lied about anything and everything it was asked about.

This same candidate had spent years and billions of dollars greasing the skids for the campaign, shoring up support from most of the corruptible party apparatchiks, and blackmailed even more individuals who were in important positions where they could inflict potential damage. The media even became an extension of that candidate's campaign outreach, with reporters cravenly supplicating themselves for approval by submitting articles first, in order to curry favor. Tammany Hall seems almost pure in comparison.

The fact is, ever since the murder of JFK was carried out by forces dead-set against his agenda for liberating the economy from the bankers, the parasites of the privately-owned Federal Reserve, this nation has been on a slippery slope of increasing mediocrity, of dullness, loss of prosperity, a slow strangulation of the lion that once rescued the world from totalitarianism. That's no over-statement. The so-called “G.I. Generation” that had fought and won that war had bequeathed to its children a nation that cherished freedom and democracy and a strong military to defend it as well as a safety net that provided for its widows and orphans, its elderly and disabled, and a basic education for all that would avail themselves of it, and a strong economy that provided jobs for everyone who wanted one.

However, in no time at all it seemed the former foes that had been vanquished in war stood up and shrugged off the rubble and destruction and were soon the industrial envy of all, even Americans. Cheap goods were soon competing with Made in USA, and even making better reputations for themselves than the home-grown counterparts. Within a generation or two, the former colonies of both victors and vanquished supplanted them and what was once the Third World became home to industry, where selfish capital had chased cheap labor to, and the prosperity the G.I. Generation had handed down was fast evaporating in promissory notes called Federal Reserve Notes – Legal Tender for All Debts Public and Private. Fiat currency, backed only by a military-industrial complex that operated as a mercenary force for corporate interests. Jobs became scarce and wealth was hoarded in real-estate, in the piggy-bank of the family home, creating the last great bubble before the new American nationalism burst out in frustration at the lies unceasingly crowding the airwaves.

The public knew that the many years of Tweedledee and Tweedledum had yet to result in a reversal of the slide into oblivion many felt themselves experiencing. With practically no industrial base left, where was the American worker to go? Did the Establishment really expect us to believe that if the multi-national corporations could pack up American factories and reassemble them in Indonesia, or China, or Mexico, and re-sell those products much more cheaply back to Americans, that by some miracle new jobs would materialize in the US to offset the loss of those factory jobs? If the hourly labor rate is based on the lowest common denominator, then exactly where did they expect replacement jobs to come from?

Exactly. Lies and more lies, and the expectation that the vast majority of Americans would be too stupid, too worried about the daily bread n' circuses, to seriously consider the REAL answers to the situation.

The effective answer is that there is NO SUCH THING AS 'FREE TRADE'. If Americans need a standard of living equivalent to $15 an hour for a minimum living wage, then a system of tariffs – just like was used in prior generations – has to be enacted once again. This is the major tenet of the new American nationalism. It runs counter to the pseudo-socialistic fascism of the mega-multinational corporations owned by the bankster-gangsters of the Federal Reserve's handful of bloodline families. It's just that simple. Those parasites would like to see a sea of humanity that's been rendered into docile, compliant, gender-neutral, non-nuclear-family-raised labor and consumption units. Whether we use the “New World Odor” terminology or its various splinter offspring – such as Agenda 21 – the goal is the same: discourage the kind of critical thinking that results in inventive and novel enterprise, and replace it with the assembly-line mentality required for corporate projects.

The flip side of the labor and production coin is the consumption aspect; the globalism that nationalists decry sees the masses as labor and consumption units, which can be moved around the planet practically at will once dangerous “nationalism” is eradicated and a sense of national identity is replaced with one based on the idea of a world without borders. This world would have one single police force, and to get there, dangerous civil unrest that results from critical thinking about issues also has to be eradicated. They weren't quite there yet when the rebirth of nationalism stirred.

Still, that globalist New World Odor will use corporate-funded astro-turf groups such as BLM and American Burka-Wearing Feminists for Sharia Law to incite petty racism and Identiy Politics in general to divide and conquer the public, all while using stale slogans that were useful 2 generations ago but now have moved to more subtle battlegrounds (except when employed in this manner, where they can be printed on large signs while wearing penises and vaginas as headdresses, showing how naive large brainwashed segments of the population can still be). Labor is to be reduced to dependency on a welfare state that can deploy it to where the multi-national corporations need it most, but is anathema to entreprenurial enterprise. Social fulfillment under globalism comes not from physical interaction and raising a family in a vibrant and public sphere but a private culture riddled and ridden with empty pornographic carrots-on-a-stick that is forced to hide indoors, away from terrorist acts, away from the awkward physical interaction that used to be a hallmark of civilization....whether in the form of dances, church socials, black-tie social events, etc. Yes, there are still ball-games, and concerts, and even movies are still a place to take a first date to, but even those are becoming more rare and astronomically expensive for the average person – who can view it all on a hand-held device in almost-real time.

This wasn't the world bequeathed to us by the G.I. Generation. This is a world slowly constricting real idealism, constricting our best efforts to make society a better place for all, not just a place where the minimum daily requirements for existence are doled out by a fascistic super-state. It is this super-state, run by what's now called the 'deep state', that continues to encourage factories to outsource jobs and prosperity to the poorest countries (to help dissipate the dangerous pride of American 'exceptionalism', the very engine that saved the world 70+ years ago), continues to encourage young people to yearn to become hedge-fund managers and stock-brokers instead of inventors and builders.

The globalism behind this is NOT a natural outgrowth of the will of the People, but a natural outgrowth of the plans of the obscenely-wealthy many years ago that put agendas in place to mold humanity to their liking and the beliefs of that prior age. While it's considered anathema tp even mention them, due primarily to countless years of drenching the subject in heaps and shrieks of 'racism' and worse, the Protocols of the Elders from over a century ago spell out exactly what has been happening under the inexorable 'progress' of globalism in recent years. One doesn't have to attribute it to any race or religion, but the results are evident. Our social development has occurred just as it was spelled out in those pages, whether one rejects them or not.

For example; beginning in the mid-1970s, the white male has been portrayed in popular culture increasingly as doltish, moronic, even powerless....the butt of the joke. The acclaimed reasoning is that it's been done to “undo centuries of white male privilege”. The stark fact is that it does not require building such a stereotype in order to lift up and demonstrate that all races and genders can be equally virtuous and equally sinful, equally laughable and contemptible, or lovable and worthy of emulation. I also have a particular problem as well with attempts to incite “white liberal guilt”, because in my particular religious belief, the slaves of former ages have become the powerful of privileged races of today, and the slave-owners of those former ages have become the under-privileged and impoverished people of color of today. That's how a belief in reincarnation sees a former plantation-owner as a thug in the ghetto, or vice-versa, and you can't treat people today based on racial stereotypes of former generations. To do so is but one more form of selfish “identity politics”, which has polarized the country and put us at each others' throats while doing nothing to encourage a spirit of unity, that we're all Americans and in this thing together – at least to the degree we need to in order to survive. (We're all at different periods in our soul development as well, which is an awareness that should be cultivated by the family as well as the state in order to preclude resentments based on a misplaced sense of entitlement.)

The new American nationalism has gained favor among increasing numbers of the millenial generation, who watched in disbelief as Hillary stole the glass slipper from Bernie and the media acted as if nothing happened. When Bernie didn't even fight back, and the leaked emails pointed to some form of “leverage” she had over him, it further damaged his reputation among voters who had put so much faith into his campaign. I personally was disgusted at how he pointedly avoided answering the pertinent questions about why he didn't even fight back, and when the leaked emails referred to this “leverage”, I wondered then and to this day what form of blackmail she used against him. No matter; however he was compromised, if he's unable to answer why, then he doesn't deserve the allegiance of a single voter as a potential standard-bearer. I mention this because it's a major factor in why I completed the circuit from progressive to nationalist. At least I know that when the standard-bearer of nationalism says something, he not only means it, he won't be doing the usual shoulder-shruggin', hand-wringin' two-step to avoid accountability. I even imagine Truman's old paperweight getting dusted off and returned to the desk in the Oval Office for the next 4 years: “The Buck Stops Here”.

It comes down to this: I'm proud to be an American; I'm not just proud because I think I'm better than another, because if anything, the more we have and the more we know, the more we obligate ourselves to do better for others. However, it's not upon the State to guilt-trip the individual or even the public to open themselves up to be victimized. The US does not grant an entitlement to refugees who want to come to this country to better themselves, particularly if they do so illegally. I see common cause with those who feel the same way, who may be of a different color or race or gender. If they see themselves as Americans first, who understand that wealth by itself does not confer righteousness, or extra-judicial rights, then they are my American brothers and sisters. If they understand that color, or race, or religion, or gender, also does not confer righteousness or extra-judicial rights, no matter the history, then they too are my fellow American brothers and sisters. If they understand that membership in a secret society is anathema, and that it too does not confer righteousness or extra-judicial rights, then they too are my fellow Americans. If they believe that wealth and prosperity earned in this country (I'm speaking here mostly about capital and capital formation) should remain in this country, then they too are American nationalists. If they believe in lawful immigration, not illegal immigration, then they too are American nationalists. And if you believe that excessive wealth, especially that produced in this country and outsourced from it, or membership in secret societies, or polarizing religious, ethnic, and gender identities have had an adverse affect on American society, then the probability is high that you, too, are an American nationalist.

The conflict isn't between 'progressives' and 'conservatives', it's between nationalists and globalists. Globalism began in earnest when the robber-barons that conquered their competition before the turn of the last century turned their backs on the system that had given them their wealth, and instead poured their (often ill-gotten) gains into foundations, trusts, and endowments whose purpose was to remake the world into a place that preserved their hegemony over their fellow man. Not only was this wealth used to reinforce their position economically and socially, it was then used to remake and mold the world around them into one that reflected their beliefs. Those beliefs seem rooted in the applied sciences that has little room for spiritual matters, aside from using religious institutions as control mechanisms for the larger population. While the Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution and Bill of Rights for a nation in which everyone has potential, and mankind is innately good but becomes corrupted by the greed of his fellow man and the oppression of financial institutions, the Usurpers acted to deny those that came after them the same benefits, and have slowly worked to co-opt the entrepreneurial spirit. Or, at minimum, they've acted to prevent the masses from enjoying too much liberation.

It's the subject of a book, as it always is, but the long and the short of it is that the Progressive movement, the original progressives of the early 20th century, were against monopollies and corruption. That was the original impetus behind the movement. What we witnessed in the recent election cycle was a mockery of a supposedly 'progressive' candidate facing off against a nationalist who believes in 'putting America first'. It's not as if nationalism is a bad thing, it's the fact that in using the terminology, the true agenda of globalism is revealed by the reaction of the anti-nationalist Establishment. In fact, the 'nationalist' is more of a 'progressive' than the 'globalist' these days, and what's left of the so-called 'left' has merged with the 'right'.

Election 2016 - Right VS Wrong, not Right VS Left

The Existential Threat Posed By Hillary Rodham Clinton

As the reality of President-Elect Donald Trump sinks in, with the violent temper tantrums by the Soros-funded gangs still sputtering off in the distance, it may seem to many of us that “happy days are here again”, and indeed they are, but America narrowly dodged an existential threat. Few of Hillary Clinton's supporters took the time to actually read the Wikileaks' “Podesta Emails”, but if they had, they would know by now that they were supporting a satanic demon-worshipping witch, yes an actual witch, and her inner-most circle of staff of a similar bent. No, this wasn't something to be casually scoffed at as so much “new-age curiosity”, but was rooted in the most depraved pedophilia that included child sacrifice as well as rape and all manner of perversity.

The Popular American Nationalist

Donald Trump is not, and never was, a traditional Republican. It's for that reason that he was resisted by the Establishment, both the GOP Establishment as well as the Democratic Establishment and practically the entire mainstream corporate media Establishment. The Bush family moved their allegiances to Hillary, and this was barely mentioned in footnotes here and there whereas had this happened before, it would have alienated a substantial chunk of the Democratic base. When that happened, it should have dawned on most voters with half a brain that the real lines of conflict were NOT between the values of a leftist party that normally champions diversity, justice for the disenfranchised, care for the least fortunate, concern for the ecology of the environment, etc, and the values of a right-wing party that normally champions individual ambition, security, business, fewer taxes and regulations, etc. Instead, the electorate was faced with a candidate who was probably the most untrustworthy in modern memory and slowly being exposed as a morally-hollow poster child for corruption, who based her policy positions on whatever her focus groups told her......entrenched in the Establishment and set against an opponent who had been an avowed enemy of globalization for decades, who had never held elected office or who had been an officer in the military yet who seemed to have his finger on the exact pulse of the electorate.  This businessman went on to clean the clocks of well-established rivals who had been governors and senators; his claim to fame was building skyscrapers, resorts, casinos, and who had starred in his own reality TV show.  Shades of Ronald Reagan, made to order for the Orwellian Double-Speak world of the second decade of the 21st century.  The 'Giant Cheet-O', or 'Yuge Yam' as some detractors called him, seemed perfectly scripted, as he already owned an aircraft -- "Hair Force One" -- that could be compared to Air Force One, a matching helicopter that could be compared to Marine One, who filled his rallies with rock n' roll from the 60s, 70s, and 80s that reflected the mood of the audience, and his speeches left little room for the stale politics of your grandfather's GOP. His demeanor was determined, a bit rough around the edges with surly tinges of bellicosity, but his genuine concern for the country and his innate honesty was communicated nonetheless.

Globalization, Globalism, & Evil Globalists

The new political conflict is between the populist form of 'Americanism' vs 'globalism' that is the invention of the 1% of the elite that has controlled both the movement of political forces and their definitions, through their ownership and control of the mass media they use to mold public opinion and passions. The public made their choice known, and the scale of the tsunami would have been much greater except for the fact so much of the smug 'intelligentsia' in the urbs and sub-urbs had been so inundated by an onslaught of anti-Trump propaganda. There were teams of reporters and researchers digging frantically for novel bombshells that would somehow expose the anti-globalist Trump as even more of an ogre than they thought they had painted him as. And, they actually were arrogant enough to think they had succeeded.

The Discrediting of Corporate Broadcast & Print Media

Imagine! This corporate media had become a public-relations conglomerate of Hillary lackeys, as Wikileaks amply demonstrated in daily leaks, and were so out of touch with the average American they had no clue whatsoever that all they did – through their constant lies and genuflection – was alienate their viewers even further (if Alex Jones and InfoWars is correct, they – CNN, MSNBC, and even Fox to some degree, lost over 90% of their audience this year, including this writer). I couldn't stand to listen to the voice of Hillary once it became clear her team was stealing state after state for her away from Sanders, who was the overwhelming choice of the majority of Democrats. The voice of a thief, an evil thief who was actually an impostor both as thinking of herself as the actual choice of most of the rank-and-file of Democrats, and for her corruption in having a “public position” for the voters to hear, and a “private position” for the bankers and elitists whose bidding she was sure to do. And even when she wasn't speaking, having to hear the pundits on CNN and MSNBC speak constantly of her and her qualifications, coupled with negative coverage of Trump, was simply too much for my brain to have to bear, even as part of the background noise. The only time I see what goes on the CNN and MSNBC sets is when I watch clips filtered through the new “alt.media”, who help break down what the hidden agenda might be in that particular instance. These days we get our CNN through people like Gary Franchi and MLordAndGod, AmTV, H.A. Goodman and of course Alex Jones.

The history of this election will be replete with daily bombshells from Wikileaks, and it could be said that Wikileaks and the InfoWars operation run by Alex Jones fueled the Trump movement and was there to welcome the average TV viewer tired of hearing the outright lies by the corporate media. This took place not only on laptop and desktop screens, but the new Roku, Chromecast, and “smart” TVs that allow viewers to 'cut the cord' to their cable boxes, many of which lie disused and gathering dust as the audience has migrated to YouTube and various other platforms they can access on their smartphones, which are in large part replacing computers (excepting those who consider themselves creative, who need the larger capabilities a laptop or desktop offers).

Almost all of the alt.media that appear on YouTube autoplay queues have begun to adhere to the concept of 'globalization' as Public Enemy #1, whether alt.right or alt.left. The product of the annual Bilderberg meetings, G20 and G8 summits and other institutional efforts, globalization has come to represent the loss of jobs and even civil liberties in the US, and the Republican candidate limited himself almost exclusively to attacking the Democratic candidate on many of the same issues her Democratic challenger had attacked her on – issues involved with the concentration of wealth, the power of that wealth on the political process, and how certain wealthy individuals, such as George Soros, were pushing an agenda of open borders, unrestricted refugee flows, and the now-dead trade deal TPP and its Atlantic forerunner TTIP.

The antidote to this globalization process first came to widespread attention with the victory of the Brexit movement (Britain Exit – exit from the European Union) which totally confounded the corporate media. The leader of that movement, Nigel Farage, went on to advise Trump and that effort laid the groundwork for the populist movement that Trump rode to sweep 16 competitors into the dustbin with little effort. Those competitors seemed to have completely missed the message of Brexit, missed the effect of the alt.media and its centerpiece, Alex Jones' InfoWars, missed the growing awareness of the corruption at the heart of the DNC and the Clinton campaign, missed the growing disgust of “identity politics” that sparked a backlash in the wake of the Ferguson riots when it became apparent that the central figure whose shooting caused the rioting turned out to be a petty thief.

It may yet turn out that George Soros paid Michael Brown or otherwise caused him to be enticed into flouting the rule of law to openly steal a box of cigars from a convenience store, to openly walk down the middle of the street instead of using the sidewalk, and to threaten the police officer that confronted him about it with violence. Darren Wilson, the cop who shot him, went on to be exonerated and became a poster-child for “Blue Lives Matter”, the backlash to the “Black Lives Matter” (Soros-funded, along with the violence staged at a Chicago Trump rally) and ITS poster-child Michael Brown.

How "Identity Politics" Helped Fuel "Demexit" (The Exit of Democrats from the Party)

People, it turns out, are largely sick of “identity politics”. The “Black Lives Matter” movement only serves to further polarize society along racial lines. Of COURSE black lives matter. Who are you gonna inform that doesn't know this? The racist cops? Soros wants black people to buy into this polarization, to riot against “whitey”, so that he can call upon the national guard to protect his resources, his real-estate, his vast holdings. And as far as black shootings go, the fact is that more whites get shot and killed by cops than blacks, and more blacks get killed by the hands of other blacks than by whites or especially white cops.

It seems people prefer being thought of as Americans first - LEGAL Americans at that, and not illegal hispanics or middle-eastern refugees that have little interest in learning English or becoming Americans but who want to maintain their national identity while availing themselves of illegal jobs that continue to put downward pressure on legal jobs and law-abiding American citizens.  As (black or brown or white or yellow) Americans, people can point to globalist corporations outsourcing their jobs or foreigners sweeping over hole-riddled borders as the 'enemy' and not someone who's skin is a different color or who's taste in music is different.  

George Soros - Public Enemy Number One

At this very moment Soros has classified ads up advertising $35.00 per hour now (up from $15 and then $18) to protest Trump at various Trump properties. Seems he was paying people $1,500 plus medical and a cellphone to protest Trump rallies, carrying Bernie Sanders signs.....the better to pit one opponent against another. Where is the FBI on this?! Is InfoWars and the alt.media the only source of facts pertaining to the true origin of the violence Democrats supposedly fear in a Trump presidency? Do we need to have James O'Keiffe and Project Veritas go into every scheming back room where corrupt Democrats are working overtime to divide and conquer, to pit the races against each other?

Sadly, many small-skulled dimbulbs nationwide bought into the public-relations firms' campaign to attribute the popularity of Trump's campaign to “white supremacy”, but this is largely borne out by the fact many of them openly admit they prefer to let these PR firms (a/k/a CNN, MSNBC, Washington Post, New York Times, etc) do their thinking for them. Unbelievable, but true! I actually read a Facebook post by someone supposedly smart enough to rub their own brain cells together, smart enough to know better, who openly admitted to this and defended the practice! No WONDER we're tyrannized by the stupidity of sheeple! Thanks to Wikileaks and the alt.media, there's no excuse any more. The facts are in plain sight, including the most damaging news that only emerged in the last days of the campaign: senior campaign staff, and allegedly the candidate herself, are involved in child pedophilia and have participated in satanic rituals designed to call upon the forces of demons from another dimension to assist in sating their lust for power.

Does the Left even have a future?

The Left, or what's left of it, can be encapsulated by the policy prescriptions of Bernie Sanders, who had the Democratic nomination stolen from him (but mysteriously did not fight back, supposedly because the minions of Hillary had some type of 'leverage' over him as attested to in Wikileaks). That message was very similar to the one espoused by Trump, (which is one reason many Bernie supporters got on the TrumpTrain enthusiastically) but unfortunately was silenced and placated by hollow promises (the hollowness spelled out again in Wikileaks) made by Hillary's staff as they held out olive branches to the platform committee. That 'platform committee' is where all good candidates' ideals are put out to pasture as a consolation prize; designed never to reach fruition but maybe convince dim bulbs – like Michael Moore turned out to be – that the winning candidate was actually interested in incorporating their ideas into their policy planning. Hah! Maybe one day, once the genuine progressives and humble Democrats are able to go into the Democratic National Committee and scrub out the stench of the Clintons and their smug, warmongering neo-con allies, there will be a true competitor for national leadership, but until then, the American party of Donald Trump will lead both the free world and the “land of the free and the home of the brave”, and the People shall rejoice as common sense – from both the right and left wings of the poltical arena – returns to Washington DC after an absence of decades, to “drain the swamp” and rebuild the nation.

For a time.  There's still a poleshift a' comin', and a lot of work to do to prepare for it. Meanwhile, ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do to help Make America Great Again.
