Subject: THE NEW YORKER ON TRUMP
WHEN AN ULTRA, ULTRA LIBERAL MAGAZINE SUCH AS THE NEW YORKER.....WRITES AN ARTICLE SUCH AS THIS (on Friday, September 30, 2016 10:57 PM)... YOU REALIZE AMERICA IS FINALLY WAKING UP TO THE CORRUPTION, INCOMPETENCE, AND IGNORANCE OF WASHINGTON...
This is absolutely brilliant. A surprising article from the New Yorker Magazine. This magazine has always been a left wing apologizer so this article is even more amazing. Don’t pass it up.
The author is the political correspondent for Bloomberg and wrote extensively about Obama even before he was nominated.
_____________________________________________________________
"Who is Donald Trump?" The better question may be, "What is Donald Trump?"
The answer? A giant middle finger from average Americans to the political and media establishment.
Some Trump supporters are like the 60s white girls who dated black guys just to annoy their parents. But most Trump supporters have simply had it with the Demo-socialists and the "Republicans In Name Only." They knew there wasn't a dime's worth of difference between Hillary Rodham and Jeb Bush, and only a few cents worth between Rodham and the other GOP candidates.
Ben Carson was not an "establishment" candidate, but the Clinton machine would pulverize Carson; and the somewhat rebellious Ted Cruz would (justifiably so) have been tied up with natural born citizen lawsuits (as might Marco Rubio). The Trump supporters figure they may as well have some fun tossing Molotov cocktails at Wall Street and Georgetown while they watch the nation collapse. Besides - lightning might strike, Trump might get elected, and he might actually fix a few things. Stranger things have happened (the nation elected an [Islamo]-Marxist in 2008 and Bruce Jenner now wears designer dresses). Millions of conservatives are justifiably furious. They gave the Republicans control of the House in 2010 and control of the Senate in 2014, and have seen them govern no differently than Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Yet those same voters are supposed to trust the GOP in 2016? Why?
Trump did not come from out of nowhere. His candidacy was created by the last six years of Republican failures.
No reasonable person can believe that any of the establishment candidates [dems or reps] would have slashed federal spending, rein in the Federal Reserve, cut burdensome business regulations, reform the tax code, or eliminate useless federal departments (the Departments of Education, Housing and Urban Development, Energy, etc.). Even Ronald Reagan was unable to eliminate the Department of Education. (Of course, getting shot at tends to make a person less of a risk-taker.) No reasonable person can believe that any of the nation's major problems will be solved by Rodham as she is simply the third verse of Obama’s waning swan song.
Many Americans, and especially Trump supporters, have had it with:
-Anyone named Bush
-Anyone named Clinton
-Anyone who's held political office
-Political correctness
-Illegal immigration
-Massive unemployment
-Our out of control federal spending
-Our National Debt that exceeds our GDP (Can you say Greece?)
-Phony "official" unemployment and inflation figures
-Welfare waste and fraud
-Money being spent on Illegal immigrants
-People faking disabilities to go on the dole
-VA waiting lists
-TSA airport groping
-ObamaCare
-The Federal Reserve's money-printing schemes
-Wall Street crooks like Jon Corzine
-Michelle Obama's vacations
-Michelle Obama's food police
-Barack Obama's golf
-Barack Obama's arrogant and condescending lectures
-Barack Obama's criticism/hatred of America
-Valerie Jarrett
-“Holiday trees"
-Hollywood hypocrites
-Cop killers while Black Lives Matter
-Gun confiscation threats
-Stagnant wages
-Boys in girls' bathrooms
-Whiny, spoiled college students who can't even place the Civil War in the correct century
... and that's just the short list.
Trump supporters believe that no Democrat wants to address these issues, and that few Republicans have the courage to address these issues. They know that Trump is their way of saying, "Screw you, Hillary Rodham and all the Do Nothing Republicans!" The more the talking head political pundits insult the Trump supporters, the more supporters he gains. (The only pundits who seem to understand what is going on are Democrats Doug Schoen and Pat Caddell and Republican John LeBoutillier.)
But America does not need a tune-up at the same old garage. It needs a new engine installed by experts - and Hillary Rodham is not a mechanic; she merely manages a garage her philandering husband abandoned. Trump is also not a mechanic, but he knows where to find the best ones to work in his garage. He won't hire his brother-in-law or someone to whom he owes a favor; he will hire someone who lives and breathes car.
"How dare they revolt!" the "elites" are bellowing. Well, the citizens are daring to revolt, and the RINOs had better get used to it. "But Trump will hand the election to Clinton!" That is what the Karl Rove-types want people to believe, just as the leftist media eagerly shoved "Maverick" McCain down GOP throats in 2008 - knowing he would lose to Obama. But even if Trump loses and Rodham wins, she would be nothing more than a caretaker, not working to restore America’s greatness but merely presiding over the collapse of a massively in-debt nation. A nation can perhaps survive open borders; a nation can perhaps survive a generous welfare system. But no nation can survive both - and there is little evidence that Hillary Rodham understands that. The United States cannot forever continue on the path it is on. At some point it will be destroyed by its debt.
Yes, Trump speaks like a bull wandering through a china shop, but the truth is that the borders do need to be sealed; we cannot afford to feed, house, and clothe 200,000 Syrian immigrants for decades (even if we get inordinately lucky and none of them are ISIS infiltrators or Syed Farook wannabes); the world is at war with radical Islamists; and we cannot continue trying to spend our way out of debt.
Is Trump the perfect candidate? Of course not. Neither was Ronald Reagan. But unless we close our borders and restrict immigration, all the other issues are irrelevant. One terrorist blowing up a bridge or a tunnel could kill thousands. One jihadist poisoning a city's water supply could kill tens of thousands. One electromagnetic pulse attack from a single Iranian nuclear device could kill tens of millions. Faced with those possibilities, most Americans probably don't care that Trump relied on eminent domain to grab up a final quarter acre of property for a hotel, or that he boils the blood of the Muslim Brotherhood thugs running the Council on American-Islamic Relations. While Attorney General Loretta Lynch's greatest fear is someone giving a Muslim a dirty look, most Americans are more worried about being gunned down at a shopping mall by a crazed Islamic lunatic who treats his prayer mat better than his three wives and who is fool enough to think that 72 virgins are waiting for him in paradise.
The establishment is frightened to death that Trump will win, but not because they believe he will harm the nation. They are afraid he will upset their taxpayer-subsidized apple carts. While Obama threatens to veto legislation that spends too little, they worry that Trump will veto legislation that spends too much.
You can be certain that if Hillary wins in November 2016 … her cabinet positions will be filled with the same people we've seen before. The washed-up has-beens of the Clinton and Obama administrations will be back in charge. The hacks from Goldman Sachs will continue to call the shots. And American will continue her continuing decline as other great democracies in history.
If the establishment wins, America loses.

stressing you out even more than usual, which is saying a LOT. You're
getting all wound up and this thing still has weeks to go. At this rate
you're going to blow a gasket before we get to the finish line. Maybe find
yourself some elephant tranquilizers?

A widely-circulated editorial about Donald Trump didn't reach viral
popularity until it was misattributed to the magazine 'The New Yorker.'
"Incorrectly Attributed"
If you had tried to find an actual link you would have known this.
This is just the illusion of a straw for you to clutch at.

I did saerch that way. And predicted toi myself that within minutes you would respond as you just did.
I saw the snopes read on this. That's not my point! My point is that everything in the article is REAL AND CORRECT!
My heads up came from someone that knows truth when he see it and passes it on to me.
The Hillary Lie Machine Marches on and will as predicted.

BTW, your post is most certainly not "REAL AND CORRECT" it is just the OPINION of the writer speaking for imaginary others - Especially after his list of many things that piss off everyone - Hillary included.
The RANT you posted drew attention only because it claimed (and you believed) it came from the highly respectable New Yorker Magazine. Wingnut talk jocks read stuff like that all the time on the radio shows.. (as you well know)… It is propaganda to make voting for Trump seem like a normal & natural thing to do…. You really ought to read up on the Ghost Dancer movement, because Trump is your Wovoka…. A word to the wise should be sufficient!

You are in your own Central Blue Fringe Cast Dream World, Don. Trump is NOT my anything and never has been. Trump is just a bad alternate choice to something much more evil.
Not to mention something like the Legacy Of The Great Chicago Community Organizer Barack Obama.
Here is his Chicago Legacy so far this year of what he stands and allows to fester, staraight from the Chicago Tribune:
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-weekend-shootings-chicago-20161017-story.html
Over 1,000 More People SHOT In Chicago Compared With This Same Time Last Year
Read the story. Chicago Ammo Dealers are making a killing in sales. There have been at least 595 Chicago homicides this year compared with 409 this time last year, an increase of 186. As in...DEAD Ya KNOW!
But you can damn sure bet he won't miss another Hawaii Vacation and any tee times he is already lining up. THAT is the legacy America will remember!
You might wanna INVEST IN some AMMO STOCK! It will continue under Hi-LIAR-y!
