LK: when the fuck are you going to stop lying to yourself and pull your head out of that Birch society version of Mr Roger's neighborhood that you seem to think is the actual world?

Trump's speech threatens Wall Street with "America first".

I do not believe it's possible achieve it, but the idea of battling globalization and wage losses is resonating on both sides. Wall Street shrieks in horror of this madman running around with mad ideas. The working people think someone actually cares to change the system... for them. Or he is an outsider / hated enough to disrupt the system. Either way he's seen as what they want, or a warning for future negotiations.

Progressives could give Wall Street a Trump President and then threaten more "Republican" damage unless concessions are made. "Trump or us... no more Clinton types, your choice." Is a fairly convincing / threatening argument, yes?

Smack the system and see what you get from it.

How is Trump planning on doing anything he claims? Besides platitudes, what plan has he given or what has he done in his life, has he done in this campaign, which makes you think he will fight for anyone besides himself?

This same kind of "non thinking" and platitudes is how we got George Bush, the Iraq War and the biggest recession since the Great Depression. And a lot of Republicans conveniently forget they voted for Bush 2x when a lot of people had their hair on fire at the notion of him being president. Who turned out to be right?

At a point your brains have to engage and realize this isn't a reality TV episode like it was in 2000.

more lefty fear mongering.

The most liberal republican to be running for president in recent times, is in your eyes the most scary.

ah yes, more of the proto-human binary thinking from the most uneducated member of ATP&N: michal1980.

An individual so thoroughly vested in teamsports politics that it is impossible to see beyond D or R or L or C in terms of determining whom one must absolutely support.

For you, it seems that liberals must support Donald because he is a liberal, yes? Well, he has a liberal history for sure. But he is also a fascist and a demagogue. He is an uneducated narcissist that has unashamedly displayed complete and utter contempt for the US constitution, whom supports war crimes across the board, engages in fairy tale fantasies as a proxy for real policy, and has convinced you that a perfectly awesome country is actually a shithole of a country that needs to be restored to a time when, well, it actually was quite a bit shittier in order to make it unshitty--but you seem that should be OK for liberals, because that is what you think of liberals?

That is interesting. This means that you either support such sub-human filth because it reflects the type of people you like in your traditional R or C leadership roles, or it is simply that you are such a profoundly uninteresting person, unwilling to read or be challenged in any way, that the only thing you need to see is R or C, and he's got your vote.

This would be a fascinating turn of events, michal1980, except that it is so boringly predictable because you are such a uniquely stupid person when it comes to politics.
