After the Hillary-stealing-the-nomination fiasco he had every right/opportunity to bern the 'rat party to the ground and reshape it to his(screeds)of leftist/Marxist ideology...with his rabid suckers followers as his soldiers of destruction.
Instead he chose to do nothing but step aside, keep his mouth shut(and get a $$$ vacation home for his silence)...proving that all along he was just playing the role(easy when you can just be yourself)of a lunatic far-leftist plant, made to make Hillary look like a "moderate" by comparison.
What a hypocrite/phony "milyunaiah" he is...yet many still eat his oral feces like candy...what fools.
Still, his success in the primary made the DNC and Hillary crap their pantsuits in fear, and the chaos among the elites that followed was pleasure to behold for sure...all culminating in a double-scoop of dung in their shorts come election night.
...so does that mean WE owe the 'ole shyster a debt of gratitude?....NAH!
Just an Asshole.
That's the correct diagnoses to be sure.
They like’em that way in Vermont!
Must be the maple syrup!
“Most dangerous” is pure hyperbole. Nothing Trump has done so far has put the US or the world in a state anywhere comparable to what it was in the 1970s, when the Vietnam war was winding down and finally surrender was declared, and the nation and much of the world was suffering from stagflation, a policy concept invented by Jimmy Carter and raised to an art form almost overnight.
Prostrate before Iran and the Soviet Union together, our national defenses were demobilized and stripped away, and the nation had no respect anywhere in the world. Choked by regulations and seemingly endless escalations of taxation, the economy was headed south at a most alarming rate. There was no faith in the integrity of the Federal government, and the job of maintaining order in the midst of the artificial scarcity of decent goods or services spelled doom at every quarter.
Then along came Ronaldus Magnus, and it was Morning Again in America. The sun rose brighter, the birds sang, and there was a glimmer of hope returning. Industries that had been faltering gained at least a temporary reprieve, as our long national nightmare began to fade, if only for a few years. International relations showed the growing prestige, as first the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Empire crumbled, sweeping away the old order in Russia, reborn as a new smaller Federation, many of its captive nations now free to lead their own self-determination. Then the Iranian revolution was left scrabbling with its neighbor Iraq, under the local strongman Saddam Hussein, and our intervention in the Middle East was at its minimum. China was still a fumbling military state, but unable to extend its hegemony beyond a few neighboring countries, most of which were hostile, if not totally subservient like North Korea, held in near-imprisonment by the burgeoning economy of South Korea and their dependency on the Red Chinese.
Yes, it was a good time, when America was Great.
But alas, nothing is forever, and after vacating the Oval office, Ronaldus Magnus could no longer control the course of events, and with the poorly chosen adventure into the Middle East, his successor, George H. W. Bush plunged us into the Middle East in a most disastrous way, considering there was no attempt to bring down the reign of Saddam Hussein, who was allowed to remain and fester into the boiling rage that erupted after Bush-41’s tenure in office, by an upstart and rather ignorant hillbilly governor from Arkansas, Billy Jeff “Slick” Clinton, clearly one of the most disengaged Presidents ever to serve.
We found ourselves drawn inexorably into further and much wider conflict with the Islamic Jihadist faction of the Middle East, making only pinprick responses to various forays into our sphere of influence, but Slick escaped most of the consequences of his very bad stewardship of the Oval Office. His successor in office, George W. Bush, Bush-43, was an affable and accommodating sort of patrician, far too willing to “reach across the aisle” to the likes of Ted Kennedy, which resulted in a good many compromises not at all beneficial to the whole mission of the United States of America. But worse, Bush-43 was dashed head-on into first, a confrontation with China, which he fended off with high diplomacy, then on that fateful day of September 11, 2001, the Islamic Jihad movement struck on American soil for the first time, an open declaration of war which was answered in a very awkward way, by reopening the unfinished war with Saddam Hussein, instead of going after the very real al-Qaeda network, based primarily in Afghanistan at the time.
Quagmire piled upon quagmire, great economic disruption in the US, and the political picture of the US was once again thrust back in the turmoil of the 1970’s, with the election of one of the most ineffectual Presidents (and I use the term loosely, as he was a mere figurehead) the nation had ever known, Jimmy Carter and Warren G. Harding included.
Rising taxation, reintroduction of some of the most restrictive of regulations and capture of a goodly slice of the US economy under the guise of “health care reform”, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010”, which neither protected patients nor was affordable in any way, shape, form or manner, had one good effect - it swept away the the Democrat majorities of both the House and Senate, and set up the eventual return of the White House to a practical and energetic believer in the Great American Experiment, Donald J. Trump.
The work of The Donald has been magnificent in its scope and effects, but it is far from finished, and there is every prospect of simply losing it all over again after he is termed out of office in January 2025.
We should be preparing our strong successor right now, publicizing his accomplishments and carving out his path for the proper succession as 46th President.
Otherwise all our valiant effort to date shall be for naught.
Obuttnuts was the 3rd leg of the trilogy
Oh Bernie -
You’ve come so far since I first saw you sleeping on a park bench in Burlington VT.
With your torn jeans, filthy shirt and unkempt hair, I almost felt sorry for you - not realizing you’d just been kicked out of your commune.
Now you have three homes, your wife bankrupted an entire college, and you’re still the same useless POS you were 40 years ago.
Hard to believe that this old decrepit idiot resonates with more Americans than Gus Hall did. We are headed in a bad direction. FUBS. ESAD.
The desperation is delicious...
And Bernie you are one of the most stupid presidential candidates ever...
The thought or fact that Trump will be unchained will finish driving the left insane. Kinda cool.
Nope
The skids were already greased
Dangerous to commie pinkos like him, maybe. LOL
That’s why he was elected.
here we go
Well thanks Bernie Hugo Chavez!
More than Lincoln?
Bernies poll numbers are slipping. Hes getting desperate. Hes lashing out at someone who is not currently his opponent. Hes losing it.
Notice when the democRAT socialists call Trump these names, they never spell out any details as to why they think that.
Just not liking Trump does not make him the most dangerous president ever, Bernie.
Bump
