I should be clear, I don’t think Obama is nice “(or that Carter was. He was a real nasty prick in person, from what I’ve heard.). Both Obama and Carter are cut from the same despot cloth.
My point was how the whole thing is playing out exactly the same, even down to the media’s BS playbook.
Seems that all those in the grips of Liberalism/Leftism per Marxist roots; are cut from the same cloth. Appears to be a 'chicken/egg' MO per the Left leadership; from lowest to highest. (From the wannabe, leader-neighbor next door; from the Lefty bureaucrat to Oval Office). The 'inclinations' are same.
(Guaranteed; these people can only try to 'imagine' the concept of altruism/patriotism. . .) Would add as well; another commonality; incredible narcissism; in the mind of the Lefty. Have to have it; to 'believe' in Leftist MO.
Think Hayak nailed it; with 'The Fatal Conceit'. The perversion of truth could not make sense to them; without first; their 'core narcissism'. This is a collective - group - think wrapped in 'self'.
