Subject: NEW
YORKER on Trump....
Old NEW YORKER
on Trump, a long article, but very interesting.
Pretty well sums up what "they" just don't get! This is from The New Yorker--a very liberal
magazine!!!
This is absolutely
brilliant. A surprising article from the New Yorker Magazine. This magazine has
always
been a left wing apologizer so this article is even more amazing. Don’t pass it up.

No matter whom
your favorite candidate might be … the article is an interesting read.
The author is
the political correspondent for Bloomberg and wrote extensively about Obama
even before he was
nominated.
nominated.
"Who is
Donald Trump?" The better question may be, "What is Donald
Trump?"
The answer? A
giant middle finger from average Americans to the political and media
establishment.
Some Trump
supporters are like the 60's white girls who dated black guys just to annoy
their parents. But most Trump supporters have simply had it with the Demo-socialists
and the "Republicans In Name Only." They know there isn't a dime's
worth of difference between Hillary Rodham and Jeb Bush, and only a few cents
worth between Rodham and the other GOP candidates.
Ben Carson is
not an "establishment" candidate, but the Clinton machine would
pulverize Carson; and the somewhat rebellious Ted Cruz will (justifiably so) be
tied up with natural born citizen lawsuits (as might
Marco Rubio). The Trump supporters figure they may as well have some fun tossing Molotov cocktails at Wall Street and Georgetown while they watch the nation collapse. Besides - lightning might strike, Trump might get elected, and he might actually fix a few things. Stranger things have happened (the nation elected an [islamo-]Marxist in 2008 and Bruce Jenner now wears designer dresses.)

Millions of
conservatives are justifiably furious. They gave the Republicans control of the
House in 2010 and
control of the Senate in 2014, and have seen them govern no differently than Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Yet those same voters are supposed to trust the GOP in 2016? Why?

Trump did not
come from out of nowhere. His candidacy was created by the last six years of
Republican failures.
No reasonable
person can believe that any of the establishment candidates [dems or reps] will
slash federal spending, rein in the Federal Reserve, cut burdensome business
regulations, reform the tax code, or eliminate useless federal departments (the
Departments of Education, Housing and Urban Development, Energy, etc.). Even Ronald
Reagan was unable to eliminate the Department of Education. (Of course, getting
shot at tends to make a person less of a risk-taker.) No reasonable person can
believe that any of the nation's major problems will be solved by Rodham, Bush,
and the other dishers of donkey fazoo now eagerly eating corn in Iowa and
pancakes in New Hampshire.
Many Americans,
and especially Trump supporters, have had it with:
Anyone named
Bush
Anyone named
Clinton
Anyone who's
held political office-Political correctness
Illegal
immigration
Massive
unemployment
Phony
"official" unemployment and inflation figures
Welfare
waste and fraud
People
faking disabilities to go on the dole
VA waiting
lists
SA airport
groping
ObamaCare
The Federal
Reserve's money-printing schemes
Wall Street
crooks like Jon Corzine
Michelle
Obama's vacations
Michelle
Obama's food police
Barack
Obama's golf
Barack
Obama's arrogant and condescending lectures Barack Obama's criticism/hatred of
America
Valerie
Jarrett
“Holiday
trees"
Hollywood
hypocrites
Global
warming nonsense
Cop killers
Gun
confiscation threats
Stagnant
wages
Boys in
girls' bathrooms
Whiny,
spoiled college students who can't even place the Civil War in the correct century...
and that's just the short list.
Trump supporters
believe that no Democrat wants to address these issues, and that few
Republicans have the
courage to address these issues. They certainly know that none of the establishment candidates are better than
barely listening to them, and Trump is their way of saying, "Screw you, Hillary Rodham Rove Bush!"
courage to address these issues. They certainly know that none of the establishment candidates are better than

The more the
talking head political pundits insult the Trump supporters, the more supporters
he gains. (The only pundits who seem to understand what is going on are Democrats
Doug Schoen and Pat Caddell and Republican John LeBoutillier. All the others
argue that the voters will eventually "come to their senses" and
support an establishment candidate.)
But America does
not need a tune-up at the same old garage. It needs a new engine installed by
experts -
and neither Rodham nor Bush are mechanics with the skills or experience to install it. Hillary Rodham is not a
mechanic; she merely manages a garage her philandering husband abandoned. Jeb Bush is not a mechanic; he
merely inherited a garage. Granted, Trump is also not a mechanic, but he knows where to find the best ones to work in his garage. He won't hire his brother-in-law or someone to whom he owes a favor; he will hire someone who lives and breathes cars.

"How dare
they revolt!" the "elites" are bellowing. Well, the citizens are
daring to revolt, and the RINOs had better get used to it. "But Trump will
hand the election to Clinton !" That is what the Karl Rove-types want
people to believe, just as the leftist media eagerly shoved
"Maverick" McCain down GOP throats in 2008 knowing he would lose to Obama. But even if Trump loses and Rodham wins, she would not be dramatically different than Bush or most of his fellow candidates. They would be nothing more than caretakers, not working to restore America 's greatness but merely presiding over the collapse of a massively in-debt nation. A nation can perhaps survive open borders; a nation can perhaps
survive a generous welfare system. But no nation can survive both - and there is little evidence that the
establishment candidates of either party understand that. The United States cannot forever continue on the path it is on. At some point it will be destroyed by its debt.

Yes, Trump
speaks like a bull wander[ing] through a china shop, but the truth is that the
borders do need to be
sealed; we cannot afford to feed, house, and clothe 200,000 Syrian immigrants for decades (even if we get inordinately lucky and none of them are ISIS infiltrators or Syed Farook wannabes); the world is at war with radical Islamists; all the world's glaciers are not melting; and Rosie O'Donnell is a fat pig.

Is Trump the
perfect candidate? Of course not. Neither was Ronald Reagan. But unless we
close our borders and restrict immigration, all the other issues are
irrelevant. One terrorist blowing up a bridge or a tunnel could kill thousands.
One jihadist poisoning a city's water supply could kill tens of thousands. One electromagnetic pulse attack from
a single Iranian nuclear device could kill tens of millions. Faced with those
possibilities, most Americans probably don't care that Trump relied on eminent
domain to grab up a final quarter acre of property for a hotel, or that he
boils the blood of the Muslim Brotherhood thugs running the Council on
American-Islamic Relations. While Attorney General Loretta Lynch's greatest fear is someone giving a Muslim a dirty look, most Americans are more worried about being gunned down at a shopping mall by a crazed [islamic] lunatic who treats his prayer mat better than his three wives and who thinks 72 virgins are waiting for him in paradise.

The
establishment is frightened to death that Trump will win, but not because they
believe he will harm the nation. They are afraid he will upset their
taxpayer-subsidized apple carts. While Obama threatens to veto legislation that
spends too little, they worry that Trump will veto legislation that spends too
much.
You can be
certain that if an establishment candidate wins in November 2016 … [their]
cabinet positions will be filled with the same people we've seen before. The
washed-up has-beens of the Clinton and Bush administrations will be back in
charge. The hacks from Goldman Sachs will continue to call the shots. Whether
it is Bush's Karl Rove or Clinton's John Podesta, who makes the decisions in
the White House will matter little.
If the
establishment wins, America loses
This is
interesting!!!!!!
