Anarchists for Donald Trump—Let the Empire Burn
The Daily Beast ^ | June 9, 2016 | Christopher Ketcham

Posted on 06/09/2016 4:00:25 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

The left-contrarian arsonist crowd is larger and wider-spread than the cubicled creatures in the Clinton campaign have accounted for.

The historic opportunity of the 2016 election is one which Bernie Sanders likely will not have the courage to embrace: The burning to ashes of the corporatist Clintonite neoliberal wing of the Democratic Party.

The scenario ideally plays out with Sanders contesting the nomination all the way to the convention and then running as a third party candidate, say on the Green Party ticket, siphoning away the base that Clinton needs to win. This will hand the election to Donald Trump, and force the Democratic establishment to realize it’s doomed unless it pivots sharply to the left.

The Clintons will disappear into the toilet where they’ve always deserved to be flushed. We can then look forward to 2020 after four years of Trump and—what? Who knows. He’s truly a wild card....

I don't consider Trump a wild card at all. He is the poster-boy for success. Kennedy was stinking rich, so money isn't the problem.
The Left fear Trump. That is itself is stupid because the president is only ONE person. If the Democrats stay in power...THAT is the worst for us as Americans.

The GOP should embrace Trump...he "trumps" the Mormon by a HUGE margin!

Well, Sanders has already said he will work with Clinton to defeat Trump so hoping for him to run third party is a dream.

“I hope someone here came make sense of this for me.”

This should be an easy home run swing with the bases loaded for semantic to explain to us!

Go semantic! Please copy/ping me!

Author is trying to make the case for the leftists to vote for Trump in order to drive a stake through the “neoliberal” (i.e. corporatist) Clinton dynasty, thereby freeing up the Democratic Party to go full-bore socialist a la Sanders. He also argues that Trump is a question mark on a lot of issues, as opposed to Hillary, who can be counted on to get into useless wars and do the bidding of the most corrupt lobbyists in D.C.

It's simple. They've looked at Hillary and have seen with open eyes.

This is not to discount the importance that a woman for the first time in U.S. history is clinching the nomination of a major party for the office of the presidency. It would be wonderful and something to celebrate — if that woman was a decent human being. But Clinton is not. And how sexist would it be to cease judging her for her duplicity, avarice, and bloodthirst simply because she’s a woman?

"Sexist" would be the least of our problems. "Suicidal" might be closer. Trump may or may not be as nuts as he's been portrayed in the rags they've been reading (here's a clue - he isn't) but with CrookedHillary you get The Machine, a very nasty, venal, greedy, hideously corrupt and thoroughly unrepentant monster.

What I’m getting from it is that there is a lot of support fro Trump, within the Sanders camp. More than what will turn to Hillary. They can’t openly admit it, but behind the scenes they are telling their true feelings when it comes to voting for Trump or Hillary.

Sanders won't run as a third party or independent candidate.

And his voters won't vote for Trump.

But that doesn't mean that they don't hate Hillary.

What they care about is overturning Citizens United and getting the money out of politics.

Hillary's said that she wants to do that (even though she doesn't), so Bernie's people aren't going to vote for Donald.

But they still don't much like her.

It makes absolutely no sense for Bernie supporters to get behind hillary, and that includes Sanders himself. hillary is a war monger who has has exhibited neither wisdom nor judgement.

They should be upset about Bernie's betrayal. Their choice logically is Trump, The Green Party, or stay home.

I'm encouraging all of my non-Republican friends to think that way. <^..^>

I’ve always viewed anarchists as the extreme right. It is not National Socialism and Nazi ideology at the right this was the great leftist fake historical assertion to forever try to picture anything right of center as Nazi in nature. They won the propaganda war. They are part of the left with the state functioning as the all knowing entity.

Going right means less government not more to the point of the dissolving the existing state entities and structures.

It means some Bernie supporters and Trump supporters
have more in common than they realized.

Just to be clear I said SOME...and a few have been here at FR. Hell no, I will not name names because I am OK with siding with them. Doh! The irony!!!

I know it beats the hell out of having another Romney.

Not true at all.

They are fine with money in politics but want to make it such that only communist leftist money is allowed.

Yeah but as it has developed here it is decidedly leftist.

This country is so effed up right now it’s unbelievable, Trump is THE last hope. Any Freepers who live in New York - How many of you know welfare recipients are now being given free sex changes? Hormone therapy and the actual surgery for FREE. I read about it this morning. Think about that next time you do your taxes or when you get slammed with medical bills when you get sick. I mention this because I grew up in New York and escaped 5 years ago, I couldn’t take the liberals running that puke hole anymore, that whole state is just corrupt as it gets. Whatever you do, get the hell out, it was the best decision I ever made in my life. Even if you have to change jobs, start a new career, whatever it takes, get-the-hell-out.

Bernie might not be opposed to labor union money playing a big role in elections, but it’s hard to square what he’s said with unlimited campaign contributions by private individuals. If he gets his wishes, private individuals wouldn’t have much money left to finance campaigns.

I really think Trump could get a great deal of Bernies supporters if he worded his speeches right which would absolutely obliterate Hillary in the election. The majority of the Bernie crowd seems, at least to me, to be the same kind of crowd involved in the Occupy Wall street gang. To me these are misguided anti-capitalists who really do not get the real story about what goes on behind the scenes, how the democraps and Repub-Es are the real villains, how they are selling out the public and this country telling the average US citizen to go F himself. I really think Trump is going to try and get Bernie fans that way, he said that in his speech the other night about welcoming Bernie supporters. If he can pull it off, he will absolutely slaughter Hillary in a landslide

This person is just an idiot trying to sound smart. Major fail, but then, he is one of those who wish to topple western societies in favor of socialist societies, where we all become slaves. If he indeed were as smart as he thinks he is, then he would see the failures socialism has wrought within every society that has gone that disastrous route.
