Donald J. Trumps vision for the future of our nation is as deeply disturbing as it is profoundly un-American.
It is easy to find historical antecedents. The rise of demagogic strongmen is an all too common phenomenon on our small planet. And what marks each of those dark episodes is a failure to fathom where a leaders vision leads, to carry rhetoric to its logical conclusion. The satirical front page of this section attempts to do just that, to envision what America looks like with Trump in the White House.
It is an exercise in taking a man at his word. And his vision of America promises to be as appalling in real life as it is in black and white on the page. It is a vision that demands an active and engaged opposition. It requires an opposition as focused on denying Trump the White House as the candidate is flippant and reckless about securing it.
After Wisconsin, the odds have shrunk that Trump will arrive in Cleveland with the requisite 1,237 delegates needed to win the nomination outright. Yet if hes denied that nomination for falling short of the required delegates, Trump has warned, Youd have riots. I think youd have riots. Indeed, who knows what Trumps fervent backers are capable of if emboldened by the defeat of their strongman at the hands of the hated party elite.
But the rules are the rules and if no candidate reaches that magic number, the job of choosing a nominee falls to those on the convention floor.

Exactly one year ago?
The only ‘riots’ I remember were Hilliary’s crazed supporters when she was denied the coronation......................
So the progressive Boston Globe is giving advice to President Trump. That’s hilarious lol.
RATs are always quick to give President Trump advice. “Do this & we will still hate your guts.”
Fun stuff indeed.
The rata didn’t stop the last one who hated the US.
Why is tripe like this even worth the bandwidth use?”
I laugh at the delusional half-way losers at the Boston yellow sheet. Only lunatics read your unintelligent warped spew. I give you some advice...go out of business, you nitwits. Haaahaha. You are losers.

year ago last Sunday.
Yeah...the Glob is irrelevant. They publish what their sycophants within the Rt. 128 beltway want to hear. Effectively, an agenda for the echo chamber they live in.

This published last year. Just seeing how the Globe did with their predictions.
Thank heavens for a leader like President Trump!
The thing is, Americans elected Trump for patriotism.
For America.
Not for multinationals, importing everything from China.
That is important. Sure Korea is important now, but America is very important.
Trump won, because a lot of people agree with that he said. Not the globalists.
I sure hope Trump doesn’t embrace globalism.
Remember who elected you, Trump.
If Boston Globe dislikes him, he is on the right track.
>> on our small planet
It’s the largest known planet in the universe that contains intelligent life.
It also contains Progressives which are not intelligent life.
This was published last year.
Pantywaist fake news.
Thanks. Yes, last year. (Has the Boston Globe gotten any better since? If not, and I haven’t heard of any improvement, then my opinion stands.) Thanks
