Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Wall St. and the rest of the 1% will be with Hillary:

 

I'm amazed at what a fan of Sanders YF has become these last few months.

I value authenticity.

 

Speaking of authentic, 70 something, socialists, how cool is this:

 

"Puff is just the name of the boy's magical dragon."

 

Peter Yarrow is like Mr. VanDriessen from Beavis and Butthead.

 

As has been stated many times, Sanders and Trump are identical on many of the issues, close on others.

If you could quantify positions and put everybody on a left-right spectrum, I wonder if the two closest candidates would be HRC and Kasich.

 

The difference is Sanders is slightly libertarian while Trump is strongly authoritarian. That's the Y axis on the left-right continuum that gets overlooked.

 

I'd put HRC smack in the middle of Kasich and Sanders.

To TT's point, Trump's popularity is in great part due to his authoritarian bent. A lot of folks want a daddy figure who will tell them what to do and fix their problems for them.
