I’d love to see Jon Huntsman, if only to read the reactions of the enraged posters on the Daily Stormer and Breitbart claiming that Trump has betrayed them by appointing a “globalist.”

Trump and his inner circle probably have no respect for David Duke and his Daily Stormer followers, and would likely never appoint a true member of the alt right to any position of significance. However, they’re willing to cynically use people like Duke to further their agenda, which is dangerous in and of itself.
Lol!
Lol!
Many Trump supporters voted for Obama the first time around, so yes, I think they will. The alt right guys? Not way, Jose!
Oh, fuck off!
Oh, if Trump fucks up, they’ll turn on him just like they turned on the Tea Party when they didn’t get what they wanted. Not that many of his supporters know what they want, because many don’t. But given enough time, most people figure out when they’re being screwed.
Yeah, that’s what I’m expecting as well, although I hope I’m dead wrong.
I’ll take neoliberalism, the Clinton/Blair “third way,” and the “establishment” over populism any day of the fucking week.
Here’s the irony: Trump might actually be successful in presiding over a booming economy for the next for years. Not because of Trump, mind you, but due to Obama laying an incredible foundation for growth.
Apparently, you haven’t been paying attention:
If a guy is in the hospital for a sprained ankle, he likely has ankle issues. If a guy is institutionalized, he likely has mental health issues.
Oh, there’s no doubt in my mind that what Cuomo is doing is purely political- I get that in a second. Likewise, he’d probably prohibit the state from doing business with Neo Nazis or an All Lives Matter supporting business. And, I’m not necessarily in favor of the State of New York boycotting BDS, Neo Nazis, or All…
“West’s recent health issues weren’t simply because of Kim’s robbery, or stress over his album, or troubled fashion line, or changed medication. It all began in 2007, after the death of his mother Donda during a routine surgery. “He never mourned his mother,” Bentley said. “And that’s at the root of this...you don’t…
Well, what I meant is this: if a student union or government official (this does happen in England- George Galloway) decides not to give a platform to a student simply because the student was born in Israel, that’s discrimination.
I don’t look for perfection in my political candidates. The question I ask is this: If Booker were President and his worldview were somehow magically able to materialize within 4 years, would we be much better off as a country and world?The answer, from what I know of Booker, is an unambiguous YES.
Nothing. Booker’s cool as hell.
Because he’s an inspiring Senator who appears happy and gets along with lots of people.
I think Jezebel commenters often miss their own racial fetishization. Meaning, while they are continually calling out folks to the right of Big Bird for white supremacy, they fall into the trap of lowering cultural and intellectual standards for those of us who would be considered “people of color.”
Regardless of whether you agree with Locomotive’s comment about Trevor Noah, he does bring up an interesting point about racial fetishization in this country, and often on this site.
