The United States of America is now home to three major political movements:
1. Globalists (including almost everyone in the two major parties, at least on a national level)
2. Nationalists (Trump and his supporters)
3. Marxists (Bernie Sanders and his movement)
I hope we can take advantage of the one and only Nationalist gain we've had in Washington -- the election of Donald Trump.
I think 1 and 3 can be lumped together, they are the same for the most part.
The Marxists and the Globalists have over the course of the last dozen years, handed dictatorial powers to the Executive. The President cannot give those powers back. Congress cannot take them back. It will be interesting to see what Trump does with it all. The power isn’t all “his,” not yet. He has to take it from the Bureaucracy which has been the primary Executive recipient of the Congressional craven magnanimity.
Marxism, socialism, communism, progressivism are the various globalist programs designed to control the people. After tens of millions are killed by government, they have to change the name, brand and marketing of their programs.
Earlier in history, we had the feudal system and the the divine right of kings running the serfs and peasants.
There really isn’t a large popular constituency for globalists because so few people benefit. Their constituency is essentially similar to the king, nobles (Knights) high clergy and court. The globalists have the kings (Soros, Rockefellars, Rothschild etc), nobles (politicians, globalist military), clergy (teachers, education), and court (bureaucrats). So that would be about 15- 20% of the population?
The nationalists are those that are awake; they are those that have been deprogrammed or never programmed to the leftist ideology. The Bernie people are still under the spell of leftist indoctrination from the globalists.
Glad to be through with the prior thread. On here, you have a great point:
Globalists, Nationalists, and Marxists
In the past, Dems (of course) had the Marxists and Republicans had the Globalists. The two parties fought it out for the nationalists (called Working Class voters today) - at the time, close to 80% of the vote.
Now it’s different. The Dems still have the Marxists (which includes blacks, due to how they vote), but now also half of the Globalists, but instead of fighting for the nationalists, the Dems created a new group inside of the Marxists - called the Special Interests (gays, Hispanics, other immigrants, other losers, etc.). The Republicans kept their half of the Globalists and took whatever they could from the Nationalists, but didn’t lift a finger. Likewise the Democrats also didn’t lift a finger for the Nationalists. So the Nationalists (now more like 60% of the vote) split their votes.
So now it’s this (before Trump):
Democrats: Half of Globalists, all of the Marxists (including blacks and special interests), and half of the Nationalists...enough to win the White House.
Republicans: Half of the Globalists and half of the Nationalists - not enough
Trump comes along and actually TARGETS the Nationalists, and the math changes, as the Nationalists now lean towards Trump, at the expense of the Democrats - and if Trump does well, he LOCKS-IN the nationalists and we have a re-alignment that could last decades.
That has to scare the crap out of both parties. The Republican leadership, whether they’ve figured it out yet or not, is simply under NEW OWNERSHIP, while the Democrats have lost a HUGE CHUNK of their coalition to the Republicans, the Nationalists, with the Republicans in position to start chipping away at even some of their Marxist support.
This may well be the end for that bunch.
Well, the globalists and marxists are pretty much the same, except the globalists want to profit off their positions.
