    One notices that these fanatical wealth loathing leftists NEVER acknowledge that their leadership are all obscenely wealthy individuals whom -- in most cases -- inherited it or stole it after becoming upper level politicians.

    Denial of facts clearly in evidence?
    The American economy is in better shape than at any time in my life, and I'm old. stocks, jobs, business and industry, unemployment, taxes, all those things have gone from miserable to record great highs in two years. Now if there are people so small, so short sighted and vindictive over the loss of Hillary and cronies that they wish to deny that... THEY have a problem. Not my problem, not Trumps problem. Apparently..... your problem. It's like the guy who decides he would be the worlds greatest quick draw expert, and shoots himself in the foot. Every time- and never understand what happened. He can always blame Trump, can't he?

    Where is the government that promised the free lunch to everyone? Tain't fair!!!!

    So, because of the twisted action of ONE white person, you believe that ALL whites want to slaughter all jews?

    By that logic, the Dallas Politce officer assassination proves that ALL Blacks want to kill all police officers...

    I don't buy either concept.

    Wackos are gunna Wack-out, and the rest of U.S. keep on doing the right things.

    The Far-Left wants U.S. to believe everyone in America has to be of one extreme or the other, yet the vast majority of U.S. remain in the reasonable center.

    Just imagine a country where we could have all of this prosperity WITHOUT a RACIST, MISOGYNIST, P-GRABBING IMBECILE (like Trump) constantly spewing his LYING MORONIC Brain Diarrhea on Twitter?

    If you are expecting net GAINS for Republicans this election, I promise you that will not happen. You win some and lose some but the overall results will be net loss of governors and congressmen and control of state legislatures. The only place there could very well be a net gain is in the Senate.

    Unless you have a net gain of seats, I would not call that a red wave.

    You might want to rethink that a bit. Trump has called 20 US National Guard to duty stations as of Nov 1 and just a few weeks ago you received the first Presidential alert on your phone.

    My prediction is a red wave is going to take over the election, you are going to see Antifa thugs out in force only to be put down harshly by the Guard.

    O dear ... your lack of knowledge is breathtaking!
    Just because they had the term "socialist" in their name, were they leftist for you? Seriously? OMG ... with you you have to start from the beginning ...

    You also have to wonder how a party that claims to look out for the little guy has so many extremely rich people supporting it.

    You are correct, the people in those red areas do matter. And they don't want to be ruled by left wing urban Democrats.

    I'm surprised that in a liberal city like that, you'd have a right of center local news team. For the most part the local news near me is rather neutral. I refuse to watch any national news, my blood pressure can't handle it. ;-)

    Dems have to have a "blue wave" just to even things up after losing well over 1000+ seats across the board at local, state, and federal levels of power SINCE 2010. Pay attention.

    Anything less is a loss for dems. It's time dems FIRED their leadership, finally.

    That's because unlike with the Right; leftist-funding hyper wealthy are all cream of the crop altruists who would NEVER crassly pay in to -- say -- a Hillary's campaign fund in the expectation that she will thereafter play when they come sidling up to her and mutter, "You owe me some special considerations." That just NEVER happens on the Left; just ask any leftist.

    Actually that's your lack of comprehension and the limitation that you have with your so called knowledge.

    Especially if you can only come up with the term Socialist and base your comprehension just on that alone.


    LMAO you have to start from the beginning you say. No that is where you need to start. So you can gain the knowledge you never had.

    Who calls Nazi to be lefties is not a person who can be taken really serious!
    But obviously you intend to discredit the political left by placing it in the same corner with the National Socialists. As it looks like, your posts are coming from the far right if I take the constant "evil lefties" from you as a benchmark. And with this behavior, you are trying to give yourself and your extreme right-wing, political view a clean slate, if you push the Nazis into the opposing, means left-wing camp.

    F A C T ....

    The basis of the Nazi world view is the unequal value of the people, which then led to the racial delusion of the Nazi regime. This is the exact opposite of the left equality ideal in humans.
    In the case of the Nazis, the carriers were not the working class, as on the left-wing, but the so-called people, which the National Socialists in turn defined from a racist point of view. Who was not allowed to belong according to the Nazi definition, does not even enjoy the same rights as those who belong to it ... yes, they even become lawless and finally victims!

    Many....from Scholars, uhm that would be educated people with their degrees and expertise in study of the authoritarians.

    This is a fact!

    Hitler preached class warfare, agitating the working class to resist “exploitation” by capitalists , particularly Jewish capitalists, of course. Their programs called for the nationalization of education, health care, transportation, and other major industries. They instituted and vigorously enforced a strict gun control regimen. They encouraged pornography, illegitimacy, and abortion, and they denounced Christians as right-wing fanatics....snip~




    The authoritarian state is only concerned with political power and as long as that is not contested, it gives society a certain degree of liberty. Not much tho and not with free speech.

    Authoritarian: favoring or enforcing strict obedience to authority, especially that of the government, at the expense of personal freedom. left-wing: the liberal, socialist, or radical section of a political party or system.

    Even so, Nazi's considered themselves socialists, and reading some of the policies behind the NSDAP, it's a fitting label.




    The first obligation of every citizen must be to productively work mentally or physically. The activity of individuals is not to counteract the interests of the universality, but must have its result within the framework of the whole for the benefit of all." "We demand a division of profits of all heavy industries." "We demand an expansion on a large scale of old age welfare" and others.

    It’s not a scare tactic, because Mcconnell has talked about cutting it substantially. If we are worried about scare tactics, we should be abhorring the scare tactic Trump is using now with the caravan. That is immoral.

    No one, except dishonest Democrats and their dishonest allies, is talking about cutting Social Security payments to those already receiving them.

    That old "Republicans want to kill grandma and starve the children" schtick is immoral.

    It is sad that Democrats have only lies to run on.

    So, the disconnect seems to be that you don't understand that at the time, the 1930s, radical left wing socialist all adhered to the principles of Eugenics. Because that was the rational "scientific" explanation of human existence at the time that literally everyone from Hitler to Franklin D Roosevelt believed in. So, to varying degrees of adoption, those principles were used both in your country to justify the Hollocaust and in this country to continue to segregate the AAs. This was all done in concert as an effort to prove the usefulness of Eugenics, which folks in your country obviously took to an extreme not seen elsewhere.

    But to say that your brand of socialism wasn't "socialism" is just a purposeful rebranding that your country's education folks have tried to whitewash you with. You need socialists to be acceptable in your modern polity there. They reflect the very real appetite of those from the former soviet era East and the radical socialists from the West who pretend that nationalized industry and output are the only true methods to make everyone, except for the elite's lives, in your country suck. Germany doesn't have a history of liberal culture. You've bounce around from one foreign dictator to another for centuries. You've been abused by the Church, the Romans, the French, the Hapsburgs, etc. And for the duration of your subjugation, you've never inculcated a practice of liberalism, of personal rights, or freedoms. And since you haven't, Germans as a nation still haven't fully internalized their own national liberalism. Which is why folks there were so great a consumer of classic Marxism. The "egalitarian" uniformity model of everyone has to suffer the same amount.

    Tell me, it's been a few years since I live there, do most of you still feel the same? Is that why you don't object to the matriarchy that is ms Merkel?

    So what? I was not talking about a "blue wave". I was saying there will be no "red wave". And today there was NEITHER red nor blue wave! I hate the wave analogy now!
