and he supports Trump
Listened to a leftist describe the foreign policy uselessness of one Bernie Sanders. Referenced some mass resignation of his staff over a Clinton – era foreign intervention. (Kosov, maybe?)
Described how Democrats get in office off of anti-war rhetoric, then once in power — just covertly and overtly follow through on bi-partisan policy. (Referenced Al Franken in this regard). Said ISIS’s ideological support would just collapse if America just disappeared from the Mid-East. Then Mocked a professor of his who quoted Jefferson favorably, insisting that Jefferson fluntly favored an oligarchy, controlling the masses of peoples — and can’t or shouldn’t be an arbiter for anything.
As you can tell… he doesn’t vote.
Listened to a Donald Trump supporter, the effect was surreal and nauseating — it was coming out of a conversation where some dude was saying he’d get a “purple heart” for his sexual prowess if Bill Clinton were still president — the man who’d go on to show himself a Trump supporter corrected, ” Presidential Medal of Honor”. So, after a bad Bill Clinton Impression, he then insisted he not vote for Hillary Clinton — though “Likes Bernie Sanders”. (I guess this makes him the very definition of a “Bernie Bro”?)
“No. Trump. Trump is the man.” The man then gives the following about how it’s time we stop being the world’s police — and time to take care of ourselves, save ourselves… let the fanatics out there fight the other fanatics.” Then on to “Time to do away with the illegal immigration problem. There are 61 Billion Illegal Aliens… gotta handle them. And Donald Trump. You know him. He’s a Man of Action. Already has the engineers working on the Wall, and he’s going to get Mexico to pay for it —”
The other man (who’s black, for what it’s worth) says “I don’t know. He’s going to be out stirring up racial unrest.” The Trump supporter laughs it off, and…
I was trying to find evidence of satire, but it appears he was legitimate. I wanted to interject to simply point out — the population of Earth is somewhere between 6 and 7 Billion, so there are not “61 Billion” “illegal immigrants”, but he’s full of bluster and it’d be arguing with a self-certain rock who wouldn’t know to simply claim a “mis-speak”.
