#1 The one thing that Trump by his existence where he is today is forcing the masks to drop and reveal people for who they really are. And, yes, in the end there can be only one.

#2 The extreme hard left will never stop. Unless they are liquidated...

#3 Appearing in an interview with Mr. Stephanopoulos allowed him to be seen by an audience that mostly has been exposed only to the straw man created by the hateful left. Even manipulated he won’t be nearly as bad as been painted, anyone who believes in the ideals of liberalism will start questioning. All President Trump needs to win is for people to stay home, not to come all the way over to voting for him.

#4 One must always have an olive branch in one hand, and a sledge hammer in the other. Trump did the right thing.

Trump has always carried an olive branch in one hand. But he still has tactical nukes and space based weapons in his other hand so he's got that going for him.

#6 Yeah, what tw said in #3. I'd be reluctant to second guess Trump on anything to do with playing the media.

#7 At one time, the INC (Indian National Congress) was so mighty and unassailable, it was as if India were a uni-party democracy. They had groomed the media, made the citizens believe in their shit for half a century.

What hastened their demise was the arrival of fresh 'young talent' in their ranks, fearless anti-establishment types without brains or tact. And their over-appeasement of 'historically underprivileged' minorities. Soon, there was dissension in the ranks, gaffes from a mostly senile old guard and embarrassing graft stinking to high heaven. Some of that ring a bell ?

I'm just saying, all it takes is pride, and the momentum accrued by the incompetence snowball a complacent administration ignores the first few times. I believe the times of the American DNC are coming to an end. In the coming years they shall become a joke, their voices suppressed by disdain. And the world will see that conservatives were the actual progressives, and democrat 'liberals' were just autocratic buffoons.

#8 A British financial journalist asked Kissinger his opinion of Trump. Dr. K paused and then said, semi-cryptically - you can imagine the idea taking guttural shape in his glottal cavity before he intoned it in Strangelovean bass - "Trump is exposing the pretenses of the liberal international order."

Translation: T is exposing the hollowness, the shallowness, the cynicism and the BS behind the globalists' self-serving and disastrous policies and their smug and self-regarding rhetoric.

Damn long time coming.
