Trumpism After Trump
National Review ^ | 1/17/2021 | Michael Brendon Doherty

Posted on 01/18/2021 5:47:30 AM PST by Onthebrink

ill Trumpism survive President Donald Trump? For many observers, the answer is obvious: no. Trumpism is about Donald Trump, and only Donald Trump, and it has no substance beyond that. It is a rhetoric and an affect, in service to him, and that’s on its best days. On most others, it is a gibbering cult and series of baroque conspiracy theories. Trumpism is just is a giant sucking sound around the black hole of the man’s own vanity. It will eventually disappear, as he has, up his own backside.

Trump could go bigger and build Trump Freedom that has his version of GAB, Parler, MeWe and the others.

It would be the biggest channel on the web, if done right.

Trumpism is inflammatory. They want that division. If we’re going to divide, clearly define the line.

It’s Nationalism vs. Globalism.

Looking forward to the 2022 midterms. But if the same election protocols are still in place, will it matter?

Trumpism is the name for a condition that voters get to when they realize the 2 party system doesn’t represent them.

I believe it first emerged when Ross Perot ran and got 15-20% of the vote. Trump was a bit more charismatic, was the first to use social media to his advantage like FDR did w/ Radio, and JFK did with TV.

But principals of America-First, stop Illegal Immigration, small Govt have been around for a while

I see ‘Trump’ painted like graffiti on telephone poles. Like it was ‘Who is John Galt’

No. And there is no “if” to it. The Democrats/Communists own the system now. Reagan bought us a quarter century of prosperity, in part because the let down was a slow GHW Bush deflation rather than an immediate slam dunk by the Left. We had time to internalize the improvements and resist the Revolution. Trump got slammed by the Left in concert with China grabbing on to 2020’s version of the Flu with which they shut down everything and erased the perceived gains, leaving a system of control in place which the Left could rapidly build on. All DJT could buy us was three years of his own presidency which we would not have had if the Clinton had won in 2016.

He would start out with at least 75 million subscribers. That is a pretty good business model.

It is national review and the Deep State vs. conservatives. It is the Military Industrial Complex vs. US Citizens.

Easily and those 75 million could easily come up with a billion or two seed money to get everything set up.
