Jonathan Pie (real name Tom Walker) offers an interesting insight into the forces behind Donald Trump's election triumph.

Well, he’s entertaining and he does understand one great flaw of the Left - its totalitarianism. But he is into communist Bernie, so at the bottom of it all, he’s still an ignoramus. Think he’d like a 90% tax rate? Maybe, because he doesn’t actually work, but when he can’t get a Scotch because they can’t make a profit on it anymore, he’s going to be supremely confused.
You need to view this knowing the “angry reporter” is a comedic actor. This is satire, but like all good satire it’s pretty close to the truth in many ways.
They also have a way of encouraging everybody to be poor, so they can all rope-a-dope.
It’s not the lefties “wanting” even. God “wants” it. But it must be voluntary, not self-exalting. If you’re going to be self-exalting about it, God would rather you didn’t even bother. God loveth a cheerful giver.
It’s “requiring.”
People get pretty irked over that.
At present this has over 20,000,000 view and is gaining millions more per hour.
My question is: WILL THE LEFT EVEN LISTEN TO IT? NO!
They'll turn it off, retreat to their safe spaces, or possibly go back out and do some more violence if that's their thing.
They're talking about un-doing the Electoral Vote (right, good luck with that) or impeaching Trump a day after he takes office (right, with a majority Republican House and Senate?). What a bunch of blind fools.
GREAT video.
He's an actor playing a leftist reporter who loses it between takes. Think Stephen Colbert playing a conservative. I don't know whether the actor is in fact a leftist in real life.
I could not find a single statement he made, other than the brief speculation that Bernie Sanders would have beat Trump, that wasn't objectively true.
I particularly liked his mention of the fact that the media refused to publicize the glaring fact that Clinton did not report the leaked default questions, but rather, clearly used that intel to her benefit. That's the first time I've seen that mentioned except here on FR.
Another mystery of life solved, this is a good day. Thanks.
Well yet I’d never say never.
I think this possibility could be due to a spiritual shift in (over) America.
“Hey, we’ve been grasping jerks and fools, and we could have had a whole different spirit!” might yet be a realization that will dawn on many of these lefties, especially as the loving spirit of Christ stoops down near the people. Christmas (and Hanukkah, for people who relate to God as Jews and don’t yet understand Christ) could be an especially notable season for this. God doesn’t plan anything in vain.
Now yes, NORMALLY we would not expect this. But this is not a normal time. America has come out from under a season of oppression so threatening that the people have been groaning. It’s more than economic duress, which has been softened, at least, by welfare plans. It’s duress of the soul, which no EBT card can alleviate.
God is close to the brokenhearted, so saith the scripture. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted, so saith Jesus.
Heh heh, so he’d get liked a lot by the right.
Still is there enough of the right on Facebook to tot up that many likes? Maybe some actual Leftists are getting pulled into this “leftist reporter on truth serum” vignette?
Very good points, and reason to have hope. Thanks1

"Debate", not "default". Sheesh...
I propose it as a window of opportunity to be prayed for. The external trappings are there.
I never heard of this guy.
Did he ever nail a huge problem with the left.
I’ve watched it half a dozen times. We should all be damned glad that this guy wasn’t advising Hillary.

Some moronic brothel swears . The!
Thanks for your analysis. (I’ll skip watching it.)
