What does the rise of Donald Trump tell us about the USA?

    Many Americans do admire Putin. They love how he dealt with opposition, suppression of gay rights, wars against ISIS, that he is anti-European and anti-catholic. They associates his dictatorial tendencies with strong leadership (regardless that he made Russia less relevant and poorer), and they think man like Putin in White House will return old glory of USA as was during the Cold War.

    Hitler promised the Germans an empire that would last a thousand years.

    Mussolini promised the Italians that they would become a second Roman Empire.

    The Donald promises Americans greatness again.

    Round and round we go; where we'll stop nobody knows.

    I don't care how much a buffoon any of us think Trump is, if you really think he comparable to someone who had millions slaughtered, you might need to have your meds checked.

    1. Don't be insulting

    2. Hitler hadn't killed anyone when he was making promises to be elected and wasn't promising to kill anyone (unlike Trump who seems to like the idea)

    Really people. What Terry said. ^^^^

    This is a huge country and to judge it by what the media decides to put on air for its viewers is pretty dumb.

    We have vigilantes and peacemakers here. It's like any country, but really big and with lots of little countries inside of it. It is truly a wild ride.

    It will sort out. There are tons of great people here with good motives.

    Now a Bernie Sanders supporter (Professor Cornel West) advocates violence (as long as it is legitimate violence.)

    The point being, there are radical thinkers on both sides, each with a moralizing tone in their rhetoric.

    @dagney & @terry thank you for being brave enough to speak reasonably.

    Does anyone remember someone name George W. Bush was President of the United States of America????

    That poor bastard could probably hardly read. The coke sniffing dont mess with texas cowboy? Yea some crappy stuff happened but the whole place didn't burn to the ground. If GWB can't take America into holocaustic dystopian wasteland, I seriously doubt if (dionysus forbid) Trump is elected he has the ability to do this. You are giving him way too much credit as an evil genius hillbilly. Did anyone see what it took Obama to pass the affordable care act???? You think trump is really going to build a wall?????

    No matter how you want to spin it along with extreme media, america doesn't have an aristocracy or dictatorship
