Or to say European, it's paleo-con. Trump is most like Pat Buchanan. It's America before Reagan, Nixon and even Eisenhower which is a lot more like European national thinking. The defining characteristics of this kinda right wing are patriotism and order, not capitalism and freedom.
I'm more concerned about White America. Your Republican/libertarian class warfare and anti-poor views will divide the race and the post-war history of American social conservatism is for it to be ruthlessly exploited by non-conservatives for the sake of lower taxes.
Trump is so European in his appeal, most of his rhetoric is directed at the workers and it must be a bitter pill for the Ayn Rand brigade to listen to Trump, but if his promises are hollow then you'll divide the race and let the outsiders in. Working and lower middle classes will return to the Democrats if Trump turns against Nationalism and towards textbook Republicanism. However, there's more hope of reforming the right on economics than there is of reforming the left on culture - we can see that in how Trump spent half his campaign talking about protectionism whereas liberals sound exactly like they do, always.
If push comes to shove we can out-scumbag those muslim scumbags. They survive purely out of our own sense of decency and it won't be long until Europe once again comes up with an indecent solution.
The modern world is rejecting the American notion that if you disagree with what your government does then the country is forever blameless. The group is at fault; Liberalism is dead.
Although god is supposed to be against mans' ego you must have a massive ego to still believe in god against that kind of evidence. I think religion - particularly Christianity in the advanced West - selects for the opposite kind of people that it did before modern science. Religion is an indication of being more selfish and more of a bell end, not less. Vain little contrarians they are.
I'm referring to Western Europe here. There's no conscience or sense of trust to even be rescued east of Berlin whether that's because of the Soviet Union or Slavs simply being a bit evil I don't know.
Europe could become poor like the developing world and as egotistical, lonely and estranged as the melting pot America. In any case we won't lose to Islam, middle class opinion would change in time to defeat Islam tho potentially not to save ourselves.
For the sake of making a point boomers are the typhoid infected astronaut who's just been fired himself of the airlock.
I'm glad that the boomers have decided to dismantle themselves on the way out and no longer show any interest in creating anything. I'm glad it's all negative, negation, the tearing down. They've done enough damage already.
The politicians mostly are boomers, and why would sticking two fingers up at the establishment(Brexit, Trump)just happen to be the same thing as reversing 1968? We've just rejected the establishment by ejecting boomer values, precious few boomers know themselves and simultaneously defend being a boomer whilst voting against everything boomers did to the world, but this just means their shallow.
And at the end of the day global trade will continue and we need to fool China into spending its money abroad and lull them into the same mistakes we once made. I don't care if this means that the super rich become more Oriental instead of White which will be the likely consequence of Trump, working people in the west are competing against working people in the east, the billionaires are untouchable.
Ireland would say that it's the corporate tax loophole and white-flighting safe haven for the whole global rig. Globalism's greatest hypocrisies are your bread and butter - your only bread and butter - the world could lose Ireland without the world being any worse off, the Irish know that subconsciously and that's why they know to keep us laughing.
