If Hillary wins, then the country loses. Trump is the only Rep who has crossover appeal. Ted Cruz does not make the connection with the average voter.
Trump has already demonstrated how and why he doesn’t have to be a dictator: he has made his campaign into the proverbial “bully pulpit”. He is already dictating, forcing the executive branch to act by political, ideological and rhetorical means. He shames them into acting by making it clear how ridiculous they are. He pressures them into acting by the sheer numbers of avid patriotic people who come out to cheer him and his ideas. There is great fear in Washington and all establishment circles because he is smashing all their idols and he doesn’t need them one bit.
Oy vey, when will this crap stop?
We are living in an oligarchy where the People are serfs and the Constitution is ignored. His beloved Republican Party is talk only and no one dares actually attempt to stand up to the anti-American policies that are put into action daily.
They at the NR think Hillary is better than Trump. Hillary lies about everything and people around her get trampled on or even put to death. There is No Way Vince Foster killed himself in that park. None of her wrongdoings are even questioned by the media. Trump is not sleeping with the leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood and Melania isn’t a rapist and doesn’t fly around with a pedophile slave trader.
National Review is clearly on the oligarchy side. #bloatedhandfedloserlivesmatter
Its Christmas so I will refrain from bad language regarding national review.I will state my views tomorrow morning early, very early.
“So, he is saying that a dictator is the right choice, but we chose the wrong one.”
He is saying that if you demand better leadership and you like your candidate, then you want a dictator.
If you didn’t get the spirit and intent of what I said, it’s your problem.
Yeah, imagine that, some conservative bastard, up there chopping off the ubiquitous tentacles of the status quo bureaucracy... forcing limited government, unlimited freedom, and rights and responsibilities DOWN OUR THROATS!
We can't have that....GO GET EM!
According to a poll that has not been wrong in 100 years (I do not remember name - saw on FR), your next dictator will not be Hillary or the Trumpster, but Bernie ...
From Vlad S. Putin to National Review: please to note. I have made a list of people who met unfortunate circumstances accidentally after they displeased me very much. Then I made same list, for those who displeased Hillary clintona very much. I can proudly say my list not nearly as long as that from Hillary.
No Thanks Gentlemen.
This is why there is such a visceral reaction, even from supposedly reliable conservative outlets: they fear someone that will fearlessly use constitutional executive powers to clear away all the corruption, patronage and cronyism in Washington, then, I’m all for it.
"Lucius (Titus) Quinctius Cincinnatus. (b. c.519 BC) In 458 BCE (according to tradition), Cincinnatus, who had been consul in 460 BCE, was plowing his fields when messengers arrived to tell him he had been named dictator to defend the city against the Aequi and the Volscians.
Lots more where the above comes from. Sometimes you really do need a dictator, you just need to be really careful who you make dictator.
will Trump murder rich Lowery et al?
did or is vlad teaching him how?
This guy wants to sound like Paul Revere, but he reasons and writes like Joseph Goebbels.

Yes, he’s a faithful minion of The Ministry of Propaganda.
They are paid by The Cheap Labor Express.
” If it takes a dictator to save this country from what Obama the dictator has done, then Iâm all for it.”
That about sums it up for me too.
The damage that Obama has done can only be undone by someone who’s willing to use the same tactics. Of course he will have a much rougher time given that the propaganda organs will all be against him. I’m hopeful though because he has shown quite a talent at eviscerating the media.
The other hurdle he will have to overcome is the courts. The left will try to stop him by constantly suing him.
Hitler (yeah, I know, Godwin's law, but please bear with me) came to power because the ruling classes of Germany utterly discredited themselves. Germans turned to increasingly radical parties like the Spartacists (Communists) and various flavors of Nationalists (which eventually coalesced into the National Socialist German Workers’ Party - NSDAP).
In a similar fashion, the GOP Establishment has utterly discredited itself. They have repeatedly demonstrated that they have more in common with the Democrats and the Left than they do with the Conservative base.
This being the case, what did they think was going to happen?
The Donald, assuming the mantle of a dictator?
The Donald is a patriot, no dispute about that. And he has a suitable large ego to assert that patriotism in a bigger-than-life projection on the outside facade of the Trump Tower.
“Dictator” is what we have NOW. At one time, “dictator” was thought to be a “good thing”, as recently as the New Deal years under FDR. In fact, there was even a Studebaker automobile marque called the Dictator, a big old Buick-sized vehicle, but it disappeared a little before the outbreak of the Second World War, renamed the Commander, sort of the middle-line.
>>He is saying that if you demand better leadership and you like your candidate, then you want a dictator.
Sadly, at this stage in our highly polarized nation, that is a little bit true:
If we elect a strong Leftist, she will push the Right back hard.
If we elect a strong Right-Winger, he will push the Left back hard.
If we elect a GOProgressive, the Left will push the Right back and the GOProgressive will flail his arms impotently.
If we elect a weak Democratic Socialist, the Left will push the Right back.
The president wipes his ass with the Constitution for two terms and Trump MAY be dangerous. Okay.
