Interesting times ahead.
Worth it to see that cunt Junker squirm
And the rest palā¦shower of cunts.
Oh yeah
These are our 1930s. Weāve had our boom and bust cycles ala the 1920s. Now we have a period of isolationism and demagoguery. Hopefully we wonāt repeat the 1940s.
Weāre facing another global financial disaster/recession within the next 2 years.
Hope Iām wrong.
But imo the system is fuckedā¦you cant allow equity markets run the show. Zero interest rates are only a plaster.
Will Pearse Doherty be our new Sean Lemass?
Trump said heāll deport three million people so only half a million ahead of Obama
Now we have a period of isolationism and demagoguery. Hopefully we wonāt repeat the 1940s.
Limerick won an All Ireland in 1940. Hereās hoping
An excellent piece of relevant quote mining pal, quite the contrast to lads going back to 2012 to try and find evidence of a contradiction where there is none.
Websterās, which is the dictionary I believe you prefer over there, defines āeliteā as follows:
Definition of elite. : the people who have the most wealth and status in a society : the most successful or powerful group of people. : a person who is a member of an elite : a successful and powerful person.What made the difference in the rust belt was how Trump dominated amongst non-college educated whites - that means mostly those under 50k, rather than the middle class.
You still donāt get it, and now Iām beginning to think you are a bit dim witted, like the feminists posting pictures of a naked Melania Trump and failing to see the contradiction between slut shaming and their apparent feminism.
The only definition of elites that matters is the definition used by the US electorate. It has little to do with wealth, as Americans by and large have no problem with rich people (they are not begrudgers like so many Irish). Even Bernie Saunders who railed against the elites is quite wealthy, when you take the net worth of himself and his wife combined. āEliteā, whether used by left or right candidates in the US, means the political establishment in Washington and those that support them and keep them in power (mainly large corporations).
The second point I have highlighted above really exposes your complete ignorance of the US as @Tim_Riggins has referred to. You are swallowing this nonsensical liberal media lie that ānon college educated white voters, meaning those under $50Kā elected Trump. The assumption that non college educated whites (code for stupid morons) make less than $50K demonstrates an unbelievable level of ignorance and arrogance. Do you need me to list the jobs for you that make $50K and over that donāt need a college degree? You clearly have no notion of what people earn in the real world, and how could you I suppose. A couple working in the fast food industry here would be on more than $50K, and if you visited the US, you would see not many working in McDonalds are white, with the exception of students.
So, your raw numbers are correct, but your interpretation of it is completely flawed. The middle class in the states that won the election for Trump are predominantly white. They are not elites, they just work for a living, and they are more likely to vote Republican. With all his flaws, they still came out and voted for Trump. The morons among liberals claim that is because they are racists, without any further analysis needed of why they voted Trump. Could it be that they didnāt like being called deplorables for example? or maybe didnāt much like a candidate who didnāt bother her arse visiting their state?
Clintonās only hope of winning the swing states, having alienated the middle class, was that those on low incomes and minorities would come out and vote at Obama levels. She couldnāt even get them to vote. Thatās the only analysis that matters.
Awesome, Reince confirmed as chief of staff for President-elect Trump.
Steve Bannon is chief strategist
Trump really draining the swamp now
No coming back from thatā¦great post mate.
He has a lovely walnut worktop apparently.
