At the declaration by Donald Trump that he is a candidate for the presidential nomination of the Republican Party, media elites of left and right reacted with amusement, anger and disgust.
Though he has been a hugely successful builder-businessman, far more successful than, say, Carly Fiorina, who has been received respectfully, our resident elites resolutely refuse to take Trump seriously.
They should. Not because he will be nominated, but because the Trump constituency will represent a vote of no confidence in the Beltway ruling class of politicians and press.
Votes for Trump will be votes to repudiate that class, whole and entire, and dump it onto the ash heap of history.
Votes for Trump will be votes to reject a regime run by Bushes and Clintons that plunged us into unnecessary wars, cannot secure our borders, and negotiates trade deals that produced the largest trade deficits known to man and gutted a manufacturing base that was once “the great arsenal of democracy” and envy of mankind.
A vote for Trump is a vote to say that both parties have failed America and none of the current crop of candidates offers real hope of a better future.
The first book in Arthur Schlesinger’s trilogy about FDR’s ascent to power was “The Crisis of the Old Order.” That title is relevant to our time. For there is today a crisis of the regime in America — a crisis of confidence, a crisis of competence, a crisis of legitimacy.
People are agitating for the overthrow of the old order and a new deal for America. For there is a palpable sense that the game is rigged against Middle America and for the benefit of insiders who grow rich and fat not by making things or building things, but by manipulating money.
Americans differentiate the wealth of a Henry Ford and a Bill Gates from that of the undeserving rich whose hedge fund fortunes can exceed the GDP of nations.
Trump says America is becoming a “dumping ground” for mass immigration from the failed states of the Third World, that Mexico is not “sending us her best and finest,” that China is stealing American jobs, that invading Iraq was a blunder.
Politically incorrect and socially insensitive certainly, but is he entirely wrong?
Was not the Iraq war a disaster for which our foreign policy priesthood and journalist-acolytes never paid the price that would be exacted in other societies were thousands of soldiers to die and tens of thousands to be wounded and maimed in so predictable a blunder?
Is it not true that among the millions of illegal immigrants who have broken into our country the great majority has illegitimacy rates, delinquency rates, dropout rates, drug use rates, crime rates, and incarceration rates far higher than those of native-born Americans?
Is Trump wrong on this, or simply wrong to bring it up?
Has not mass immigration brought to America old diseases we once stamped out and new diseases we had never heard of?
Do Americans not have the right to decide who shall come to our country, how many, and whence they shall come?
Is there no correlation between a decrepit Maoist China rising to become the greatest manufacturing power Asia has ever seen — and the $3 trillion to $4 trillion in trade deficits we have run with Beijing — and the disappearance of a third of all American manufacturing jobs?
Who negotiated those deals? Who paid a price for the misery they brought to Rust Belt America?
There are precedents in U.S. history for outsiders — Norman Thomas and Henry Wallace on the left, George Wallace and Ross Perot on the right — to enter the presidential lists. And across the pond a similar crisis of the old order is calling forth new people and new parties.
As in America, dominant parties like the Tories and Labour in Britain are losing loyalists to the “a-plague-on-both-your-houses” dissident parties.
Millions in Europe now want out of the EU. Old nations are coming apart. Leftist parties like Syriza in Greece and Podemos in Spain have arisen to defy Brussels and Berlin.
The Scottish National Party is of the left while the Independence Party in the U.K. is of the populist right. In Southeastern Europe, there have arisen parties of the extreme right.
This endless proliferation of parties, like the welcome being given to Trump, testifies to the new reality: Everywhere, including here, old parties are losing the people in whose name they presume to speak.
And the specter of Republicans, who just won an historic victory by promising to do battle against President Obama, colluding with Obama to surrender Congress’ right to amend trade treaties and sign on to a Trans- Pacific Partnership pact that looks like another transfer of jobs and factories to Asia, has re-enforced these sentiments.
If Trump wants to stake his claim as a different kind of Republican, he will go to Washington and pound the Boehner-McConnell Congress until it gives up on Obamatrade and fast track.

We can hope.
I just wish the guy would get rid of that annoying wig he sports on the top of his head.
That is about all his detractors have.
NAW. I despise his background wherein he has gone through bankruptcy more than once playing the role of a BIG_TYME front man. He isn't populist; he has no principles other than money and he has made the American taxpayer pay for his bankruptcies by court appeals about his own dereliction. Now, he brings his BS artist recommended VP into the fray: Oral fatass,another queen of crap. He claims: Donald Trump (R) told Morning Joe that his favorite president of the last four is Bill Clinton, Politico reports. Sorry pal, but you really don' understand politicks in Americka.
Now you answer that question. Which one was your favorite of the last four? Why are you afraid to answer?
Nothing to fear at all, pebbles. Trump is another political disaster akin to your personal past voting record of McCain and Romney. Complete failure, pal.
Not a toupee! Donald Trump gets windblown in Scotland... and his hair stays ON - See Pictures.
Trump is going to suck all the oxygen out of everyone else's campaign. It's going to be fun to watch. Here are my 3 candidates Trump, Paul, Cruz. I'm leaning Trump right now. The more they attack him the more firm I will become. He is Red White and Blue.
How do you reconcile your opinion with Trump's view on true patriots that now live in Russia? Trump pleads a death sentence for US patriots.
Thanks for that link, tater.
I can't agree with him on everything. That wont happen so I'm not worried about it.
Examiner: Writes People.com: “The real-estate mogul, 69, took questions about his famed golden coif from one woman who said she had done his makeup before. And he even invited another woman up on stage to touch his hair – to make sure it's real.” Fox anchor Greta Van Susteren was covering the campaign stop and wrote: “This is an extraordinarily different kind of campaign. This is the first hair touching I've heard of in a presidential campaign.” The always outspoken Trump couldn’t resist plugging his own hair – no pun intended. “I really am very smart and I'm very good at business and I can make this country so rich,” Trump said. “Maybe people don't like my style. Maybe they don't like my hair, which is real, by the way.” . . . But The Hair has center stage thus far. Trump even poked fun at fellow Republican and Florida senator Marco Rubio, who is also running for his party’s nomination. “I think he's a highly overrated person,” Trump quipped. “And by the way, I have better hair than he does. Believe me. It is my hair.” Just wait until he goes after Scott Walker's bald spot. I recall he was on Greta's show when he threatened to run in 2012 and he had her tugging away at his hair, prompting speculation that it was superglued to his skull. : )
Pretty hard to argue with that. Is there no correlation between a decrepit Maoist China rising to become the greatest manufacturing power Asia has ever seen — and the $3 trillion to $4 trillion in trade deficits we have run with Beijing — and the disappearance of a third of all American manufacturing jobs? Absolutely! Who negotiated those deals? Bush and Clinton,and then Bush again. Who paid a price for the misery they brought to Rust Belt America? The middle-class. The wealthy just got wealthier from stock deals and increased profits due to corporations not having to spend the money to meet US environmental and labor laws. And it has to be said that most of those rich are trust-fund Dims.

Except for adding it's always his investors that lose money and never him,that about sums it up. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
ROFLMAO! He cares about NYC because that's where his money is housed,but that's about it. His only loyalty is to himself and his family. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
At least Stone can get behind someone that will definitely be a vast improvement over O'bunghole or that cunt, KILLary. You don't have the balls to voice support for anyone... just espouse doing nothing and allowing SHITlary to have 8 easy years. I'll assume SHITLARY is your choice.
Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves. What is equally true is that every community gets the kind of law enforcement it insists on. Robert Kennedy
You'll vote for someone worse than Obongo or Hillary... a BUSH, Lindsey Graham, Ruby Giulani's date - The Donald, Marco Rubio, or whomever your NWO masters tell you to. You progressive neocons libtards are always looking for a more efficient way to destroy America. Typical New York Rockefeller Republicans, queer liberals pretending to be "severely conservative". Hondo back out from under the bridge. Who would believe anything a 50 cent beggar would say. I remember you were trying to convince us that baby killer Gary Johnson was the answer. Go sleep it off.
You sure are a silly one. Remember when you were telling everyone to vote for Gary Johnson. Who supports federal law to make us accept fag pretend marriage. Someone who told us to vote for Gary Johnson isn't credible.
Only a libtard would like O'bunghole and SHITary enough to think they are better choices than anyone. I bet you even like the commie bastard, Bernie Sanders, better. Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves. What is equally true is that every community gets the kind of law enforcement it insists on. Robert Kennedy
You sure are a silly one. Johnson didn't force you to vote for that queer liberal Mitt. You came up with that on your own. At least I don't vote for the queer ones, like you do. At least I don't vote for the queer ones, like you do. Your candidate Gary Johnson wanted to make it a federal law. The courts forced it on Mitt. So you are more pro fag then Mitt. You decided that all on your own. You preached it until we wanted to puke. Mitt was my last reluctant choice. Johnson was your hero.
Bernie Sanders Tells Latinos He Backs Immigration Reform at NALEOhttp://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/bernie-sanders-tells-latinos-he- bacsk-immigration-reform-naleo-n378691 It is hard to argue with. But leftists like you argue against it by supporting a commie like Bernie.
Leftists like you will support whatever globalist runs with a R behind his name,and pretend you have done something to be proud of. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
I've documented a few of your leftist views. Can you tell me what views I support are leftists. Tell me what globalists that I support also. I won't sit on the sidelines while your leftist friends vote for Hillary, as you sat on the sidelines and didn't give a shit that Obama got re elected. Bernie and Obama agree on a lot of stuff. You and Obama agree on a lot of stuff. That is because you are leftists. I don't think I agree with Obama on anything. So go ahead and tell me which of my views are leftist. By the way Rules for Leftards #33). Knowingly tell a lie and try to pass off that lie as the truth.... www.libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=27927
And that's why a certain few don't bitch about O'bunghole and SHITlary... because they agree more with the (D) platform ideals than they do the conservative platform ideals. That's a fact. Pro queer Pro drugs Anti cop That's ALL (D) party staples. Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves. What is equally true is that every community gets the kind of law enforcement it insists on. Robert Kennedy
Christianity is a leftist political organization,and you are a devout cult member. You are opposed to people being able to live free and want to use the power of the state to force others to live according to your brainwashed viewpoints. The whole idea of freedom horrifies you. In YOUR opinion people should be free to do only the things you approve of them doing,and you want to use the power of the state to punish those who stray. You have no power,but if you did you would be another Hitler,Mao,or Stalin. Tell me what globalists that I support also. Any that has a R behind his or her name. You may deny it,but you WILL vote for whoever the alleged Republican candidate ends up being. Even if it's JEB. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
BullBush! Anybody that isn't anti-cop has never had any dealings with cops from the other side of the badge. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
BTW,that alone is proof of your ignorance. Being if favor of people living their own lives to suit themselves instead of having their lives dictated to them by a tyrannical government and/or superstitious religious beliefs is the direct opposite of leftism. YOU are the leftist,not me. Christ was the original communist. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Stick to the term"anti-cop" in the context that I was talking about. The (D) party has a long rich history of being pro criminal and anti cop... just watch the news coverage of Ferguson, Baltimore... and many more by any news source besides Fox... libtards have always held a special place in their hearts on their platform for pro drugs, queers and anti LE. IOW's ... I'm talking about PLATFORMS... not individuals. Platforms don't have "bad dealings with cops". It's a libtard staple. Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves. What is equally true is that every community gets the kind of law enforcement it insists on. Robert Kennedy
I'm starting to think you are to dumb to post here.
Stone - Is there a way for you to calm down? Pete is not an issue and you are taking his comments in a personal way. Meanwhile, you are escalating invective remarcks.
I just did. When I changed Petes status.
Why did you do that?
Because Pete is to stupid. Anyone that thinks Christ was a communist is a moron. Communism is a godless belief system. Anyone who thinks Bernie Sanders is to the right of anyhone is a moron. Anyone who supports faggots being forced on us is mentally ill. Anyone for abortion is a murderer at heart or stupid.
Communism is an economic system, Stone. The idea was to eliminate the bourgeoisie by complete destruction of their power and influence to make way for a more uniform economic distribution system for the masses. The way both Engels & Marx discussed the implementation of the economic theory was to violently overthrow any existing or established institutions, government, educational and religious institutions included. But, Pete makes a point as Christ attempted to equalize the masses, too. It could be said that Jesus was a Communist and in fact has been argued for about 150 years.
Hey, stupid... it's TOO, when used like that!

Some candidates kiss babies. Donald Trump lets gals touch his hair. The 69-year-old Trump – with a bankroll of billions – formally tossed his hat (but not hairpiece) into the ring as a wildcard candidate for the Republican nomination. The hair is the real deal, and the Republican’s supporters can vouch for it.
