Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

Seriously. Trump deserves more than the -ism suffix. His presence astride the american consciousness is a yooge, bounteous fount of memeing, not some ideology for people to actually consciously consider.

Yes, absolutely, and it's an interesting contrast with Gov. Nikki Haley whose SotU response was largely a rebuke of Trumpism. I'm betting McMaster has his eyes on the big office and thinks this will help define his difference. Ever since the Palin endorsement, we've seen Republican party actors coming over to Trumpism, including Falwell, Jeff Session's aide, Carson's ex-campaign manager, the Iowa State GOP Chair, Chuck Grassley, Bob Dole, etc. Not all of those were tacit endorsements, and some of them are clearly targeted at hurting Cruz more than helping Trump, but they're still important.

Please, Joe. Trumpismo.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

Um, I know "free tv time" and all but doesn't other candidates showing up at a Trump Rally just become them effectively endorsing Trump? Why would they do that? That seems so silly and short sighted.

I mean, I know none of the people at the kiddie table have a chance in hell and kissing up to Trump might just be the next move, but like if you're now just attending the frontrunner's rally then maybe its time to give up the illusion that you're competing with him?

Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

And at the end of fear, oblivion.

Has anyone yet actually found any evidence to support this "Trump beats Hillary" meme because so far Trump has demonstrated he's only effective against people who have no qualifications. He's against two first term senators, a lovely governor with a dead base, Scott Walker-lite, and a fat rear end from Jersey.

Basically Sanders or Hillary would eat him alive in the general.
