You know how the meaning of literally has changed and how annoying that is? Have they gone and done the same thing with objective?

All this is is a bunch of republican talking points strung together to make a barely coherent article.

sir_eccles

Where do you find this crap?

Anyway, trumponomics? Tax cuts for the rich and tariffs on imports. Hmm, nope.

Provide link, claim it's "objective" without providing any rationale to support the claim, rinse, repeat...

I'll be able to travel to Atlantis and back before Buchanan writes anything that is good and useful

Oakvillian

While I disagree with your assertion that this may be objective, I will absolutely take issue with any notion that it is "good" or "useful."

It becomes semi-literate barely half-a-dozen paragraphs in. Here is one paragraph in its entirety:
They must recreate what in the public mind? This sentence has no object, it stops before it gets there.

And yet, a couple of paragraphs later, he throws in an unusual word like "immiseration" which is rarely otherwise used except in Marxist economic theory. Is Pat Buchanan a closet Marxixt, perhaps?

I was so flummoxed by the poor grammar, and by the appalling composition style (my sixth-grader writes better essays) that I'm not sure what, if any, was the point Mr Buchanan was trying to make. Perhaps you could paraphrase in words that actually make sense when strung together?

This gets back to my point about the problem of relying upon belief instead of facts.

First, the GOP beats the drum for over two decades about the terribly corrupt Clinton.

Then, when people believe it, then that visceral reaction provides the justification for voting for the closest thing to a brown shirt that the US has had as a presidential candidate. They don't need the facts -- it's all about belief.

Voters should be held to higher standards. Preferences based upon nonsense deserve to be shouted down. The email server is a non-story -- if the federal government had better technology, then alternatives would not have been necessary, as Powell experienced himself. It's not as if Clinton was some rogue grunt in the department -- she ran the department, which allowed her to set departmental policy.

Don't forget the bit about renegotiating US debt. That will be fun.

Oakvillian

Isn't Trump's favourite tactic, when it comes to renegotiating debt, to simply declare bankruptcy and walk away? I can't see the US economy taking very kindly to that kind of treatment...

zargof

Yep, that's his plan. So he'll either nuke the global economy or nuke the planet.

Paul Manafort has apparently just resigned.

Awwww shucks. Who will represent the Russian spy portion of the US electorate now?

sir_eccles

All he has left is the neo-nazi running his campaign.

Jerseygirl

Who do I believe Colin Powell or Hillary Clinton? She has probably short circuited again.

There's a new UK TV programme coming soon called Newzoids, bit of a spitting image clone. They have people like Ant and Dec, Simon Cowell, Andy Murray, Mo Farah, and, of course Donald Trump, whose puppet has, as his hair, a cat. The Trump character says, of course they will treat me well, they would never make fun of me.

Kansas being the flag bearer for Trumponomics is doing so well...

Wow: What an utterly disastrous new July jobs report for Kansas and Gov. Sam Brownback and his supporters | The Kansas City Star
