Imagine what Trump could accomplish with genuine, enthusiastic supporters in Congress, instead of relectant, half-hearted supporters and saboteurs.

Oh well, at least he has a pen and a phone.

Imagine Trump having 65% of the populace behind him come 2020.

Bernie Sanders? Isn’t that a fried chicken joint?

The overwhelming majority of people here at Neutrons ‘R Us will vote against Trump and for socialism. They believe that marrying nuclear power to the socialist Green New Deal is the pathway to success. And having been educated into imbecility by liberal Academia, they despise Trump and hold him in utter contempt. He isn’t nearly as intellectual sounding as Hussein Obama. And I see this in very veiled ways all throughout the nuclear blogosphere. We 60 year old nukes who are conservative and Christian are now in a minority, and management is excited only by the youthful feminist enthusiasm that says we can do anything by our own might, even push back on the nuclear regulations. They love the green energy rainbow parties and conferences. These idiots know so much that just isn’t so. Thank God my education was in a fast attack nuke sub beneath the waves where enthusiasm was successfully surfacing with your brother shipmates at the end of patrol.

Liberalism (socialism, deminism, progressivism, whatever you want to call it) is utterly loathsome and contemptible.

LQC-I assume you are implicitly including totalitarianism and tyranny in that listing.If true socialists were now in power, these wanna-be power people [e.g. Bernie, Macine, Occasional Cortex, Nancy, Joe, HRH Hill, Kajamaica] would be spouting some other ideology – the true sign of real power people: give me the power those nasty folks have because I support ____________ism and will make you all happy [once we have enough time to create paradise on earth for you; trust us].

Liberalism, whose practitioners include the mildest sobbing do-gooder to the mass murderers like Stalin and Pol Pot, is incompatible with the Spiritual.

From George Orwell essay “Reflections on Gandhi.”

“. . .Gandhi’s teachings cannot be squared with the belief that Man is the measure of all things and that our job is to make life worth living on this earth, which is the only earth we have.”

“But it is not necessary here to argue whether the other-worldly or the humanistic ideal is ‘higher.’ The point is that they are incompatible. One must choose between God and Man, and all ‘radicals’ and ‘progressives,’ from the mildest liberal to the most extreme anarchist, have in effect chosen Man.”

That being said, “Exterminate all the brutes.” From Conrad, Heart of Darkness.

Dr. McClung is correct as usual. Just saying in case anyone was confused.
