That means there are several other Trumps out there (younger ones) just waiting for their turn to save this country.</i><br /><br />In 1976, it looked to many observers like Communism was unstoppable. The Reds had just taken Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia in '75, and with Franco dead that year, Spain was potentially up for grabs. In '74 they'd taken Mozambique and Angola, and had come within a hair's breadth of taking Portugal. Eastern Europe was still on total lockdown following the Prague Spring of '68. Virtually no state to fall to Communism since the end of WWII had reverted back from it. Teddy Kennedy was practically engaged in surrender talks with the USSR, whilst most beltway "experts" believed the best-case scenario for the West was a permanent stalemate with the Soviet bloc. There was a former California governor running for President who thought otherwise, but he was an extremist fringe candidate from Hollywood treated as a ridiculous joke by all serious reporters.<br /><br />Obviously, we know what happened, and in retrospect, the sclerotic and dysfunctional Soviet Empire in 1976 was already feeling the cold wind of death. I suspect we're in the same place with Multiculturalist Liberalism. Superficially, they're going from victory to victory faster than ever before. Underneath, though, they're intellectually bankrupt, utterly detached from reality, and incapable of halting the slow flood of Samizdat that gradually undermines their narrative. When their power dies, it will collapse much faster than expected.<br /><br />Our problem then will be dealing with whatever new mania emerges to take its place- indeed, I think Multiculturalism gained steam in the '90s largely because lefties were bored and dismayed after the death of their beloved USSR, and needed a new cause to serve.Twarognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-25848817035312255762016-05-10T16:45:31.474-04:002016-05-10T16:45:31.474-04:00Well Bob these days if you are smart enough to rel...Well Bob these days if you are smart enough to relate consequences to actions...and courageous enough to call 'em as you see 'em - you're an intellectual.<br /><br />Our universities are still mostly good - it's the liberal arts programs that have been gutted and destroyed by progressivism and now the conservatives are starting to fall too.Glen Filthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03256741311142364722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-79904672858808521692016-05-10T12:17:21.833-04:002016-05-10T12:17:21.833-04:00Yeah, I enjoyed the evisceration of Jeb as well.Yeah, I enjoyed the evisceration of Jeb as well.kurt9https://www.blogger.com/profile/02101147267959016924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-40760410833183933282016-05-10T10:04:18.069-04:002016-05-10T10:04:18.069-04:00Here is another website that addresses various gov...Here is another website that addresses various government lies, fraud and deceit:<br /><br />http://heiwaco.tripod.com<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-69743771881499524612016-05-10T10:00:32.473-04:002016-05-10T10:00:32.473-04:00"The "elites" don't give a godd..."The "elites" don't give a goddamn about these people.
