Elon Musk isn’t Elite. Donald Trump isn’t elite. But the public servant with a college degree down the street is. That’s the con.

I think at this point this is an argument about semantics. Call it “coastal urban diverse and educated progressive tribes” instead of elites.

But we definitely don’t call Trump elite. He is a man of the people who works at Macdonalds and will selflessly drain the swamp.
 
Well read the definition you posted above once again and you should understand why he's not "elite". You may lament this, but that's the way it is. You may also refer to Piketty and the "brahmin left" to foster your understanding of what's going on.
 
Being comfortable in life and having a certain mindset is what makes people elites. Being out of touch with the public, and fighting for climate change, woke causes, being a globalist etc and things that have hurt average people's living standards is what makes people elites. Many are champagne socialists living in a bubble. Trump isn't an elite, if he was he wouldn't have the deep state (system) fighting against him. Elites are a law until themselves, specially the higher up elites.

The modern democrats = elitist party, alienated the average Joe
Hard left in the West = elitist
Old republicans = elitist
MAGA = opposite of elitist, for the people.

I could probably give a better definition of elites, but l don't have time right now.
 
It’s all rather Orwellian, isn’t it? Words don’t have meaning anymore in the Newspeak. The elites aren’t elite and we are told the new elites are anyone those in power want us to hate on.

The problem is that the hard left in the party and the media is doubling down, so it shows they haven't learned their lesson,they refuse to listen to `the people' because they have their own agenda. This will ensure the party run by the modern democrats will become extinct. If they are to survive they must become more moderate and hence more relevant to the average person again.

Spot on. Orwell got it right.
 


The only thing that made me laugh during the campaign. Too bad he only does Mondays. Oh wait no. The Biden and Trump senior citizen trash talking was funny.
 
Presidential immunity. Joe, you've got two months. go crazy. eliminate all student debt. legalize marijuana. make tampons and condoms free. ban cybertrucks. shit in the oval office's air vent. kidnap barron. the world is your oyster buddy
 
Last election cost $16 billion. This one is expected to exceed it.

What a waste of money. In general and specifically this shit show. Both went through a billion each of their presidential war chests not including PACs etc.

Here is a fun fact. Nearly every state Donald won required voter I.D and a photo.

Nearly every state Kamala won didn't require voter i.d.

Were the demo-rats up to their old tricks again?

Please have your fact check of his fun facts fact checked again because he did not claim every state won by Kamala Harris wasn't requiring voter ID.
 
There were some exceptions, but it is interesting how for the most part many of the states won by the lady didn't require voter i.d. I am not saying they did naughty things, but l like the rag the demorats sometimes because they do daggy things like get obsessed with identity politics.

And now l see things like Fact Check in Thruth's posts above, and alarm bells immediate go off. The marxist lefty media always use buzzwords like Fact check, conspiracy theories, disinformation and those type of words to control the narrative,ie, they have been shown to imply the opposite of what has been happening on many occasions by using those words. I could give so many examples.

The thing these days is that we need fact checks of fact checks. When you see those buzzwords, BEWARE!!! So many people fall for those buzzwords - the experts tell me l am wrong, oh better change my thinking to the approved narrative. I am not like that, l hardly ever listen to talking heads or watch news; and when the system appoints politicised experts to control the narrative and tell me l am wrong or call me names, l am certainly not going to listen to them.

what does Stephen Miller think about your race mixing and lack of Aryan purity?

You know you’re making your PM sound cool by citing all the Trumpist fuckwits who don’t like him, right?

They should just call them opinion checks, because that is usually what they are. You can't fact check insinuations.

Btw in Germany, the MD of the major independent (roflmao) fact checking organisation has just quit her job to manage the Green parties campaign for the upcoming federal elections. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
 
GOP reaches 218 in the House. Although you might want a few more as a buffer given how unruly it is to whip them to vote.

ICC issues arrest warrants for Netanyahu, Gallant and Hamas commander

International Criminal Court judges say there are “reasonable grounds” they bore "criminal responsibility" for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity.
www.bbc.com www.bbc.com

Does that mean Bibi won't be going to the US after President Trump returns to the White House?

I mean, Vladimir Putin didn't go to South Africa for a BRICS meeting.

Trudeau says Canada would abide by ICC arrest warrants for Netanyahu, former defence minister

The warrants mark the first time that a sitting leader of a major democratically elected Western ally has been accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity by a global court of justice
www.theglobeandmail.com www.theglobeandmail.com

"The court also issued a warrant for Mohammed Deif, head of Hamas’s armed wing, over the October, 2023, attacks that triggered Israel’s offensive in Gaza. It said it found reasonable grounds to believe Mr. Deif was involved in murder, rape, torture and the taking of hostages amounting to war crimes and crimes against humanity. Israel has said that Mr. Deif was killed in an air strike during the summer."

We're arresting dead people now? Or we're looking for the corpse so we can parade the head and stick the body on a pike?
