Trump threatens independent presidential run if Republicans are mean to him

Like ok dudette who knows where I certainly must get my news.

No, I’m trying to clarify your point.

The Blaze thinks Middle America is waking up to speech that is not pc.
The same way the Nazis did to the Germans between the wars.
Trump calls someone a Muslim terrorist.
The government does not.

What exactly are you trying to say in your previous post?

Also, welcome to Boing Boing.

Yeah, I can’t figure it out either. Is is good that middle America is “waking up” to someone who is using the same tactics as the Nazis? Is calling a guy who shot 5 soldiers a “Muslim terrorist” the same as calling all the Jews in Weimar Germany “vermin”? Then the juxtaposition of “being lied to” with “what they saw as truth”-- were they being lied to or not, and about what? Was it the truth or only something they thought was the truth, but wasn’t?

As written, it seems to be a pro-Trump argument told from a pro-Hitler point of view.

You already said you get your knowledge from Glenn Beck. You quoted his media. So yes, one is confident knowing the limit of your exposure to journalism.

He sees the Republicans very slowly moving away from overt racism and sensed the market demand for a racist buffoon.

When I first saw Glenn Beck I though it was a Chris Morris style show. I’m still not convinced that he isn’t playing a huge joke on the USA.

No, he meets the dry drunk leading us to disaster cliche well. His former addict - troll shithead persona is sincere, even if nothing else about him can be considered so. I’ve even seen him live! (Don’t ask.)

What exactly is the difference here?

Well, you mentioned the blaze and the tone of your comment seems to suggest endorsement. If not, please clarify your point, thanks.

Why do you have to be so “PC”? Can’t a lover of Glenn Beck just be angry with Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson and not be considered a Tea Partier?! They’re a stunningly rugged independent. You can’t label them!

That he may just be pursuing his own glory through an opportunity he spotted by the use of a few of his racist beliefs rather than being on a mission to really do any hard to the republicans, whom he would be fine with if they could win the white-house
.

I used to work with him for a while. He believes his own hype.

It wasn’t that bad, just an hour a day for about a month. It was determined that he didn’t really fit in with the direction that CNN wanted to go and, well, his contract wasn’t renewed.

His sincerity in himself was only surpassed by that time I met Tammy Faye. He’s a True Believer.

She was actually really, really sweet. But so inherently charming that I did want to give her money at the end of our conversation. I can easily see how people would buy her an air conditioned doghouse.

I bet she was… She seemed supersweet, actually. I’m not being sarcastic here.

The Blaze thinks Trump is resonating with that portion of America fed up with pc in the media and politics. Many similarities with the politicians and media in the Weimar prior to Hitler. Using the words “Muslim terrorist” is an example. The administration does not generally use this term when the evidence says it is probably accurate. The people turning out for Trump are stimulated by what they think is straight talk with no spinning, obfuscation or denial of fact. Just an observation, I must do a better job of writing.
Oh, and thank you for the welcome
