I don't see how they can really win if they continue to put forth a white presidential candidate - minorities don't come out to vote for white hillary like they did for their "nigga" Obama.  They're openly anti-white and I don't see blue collar whites voting for them in the future.  Their entire platform consists of catering to nonwhites.  Fuck 'em, hope they blow away.

The GOP isn't much better.  They should be kissing Trump's ass for winning them the election, otherwise they'd be in cardiac arrest as well.

Everybody says so and so needs to change their party after every election.  Guess what?  Nothing ever changes.

That's an excellent analysis, Stranger.

But, if you think Trump will bring back the fabled "good paying jobs" - you know, the ones were blue-collar workers could enjoy having spending money for boats, vacations, etc. and pensions - I think you will be disappointed.

People like Trump and the billionaires who are his friends don't get rich by creating "good paying jobs."  Of course, capitalists create jobs, but, if the jobs are "good paying jobs," then, that's a PROBLEM.  And, how do you solve the problem:  cheaper labor, anywhere they can find it.

Decades ago, manufacturing - textiles, cars - were in the northern US.  Problem:  high wages.  Solution:  move jobs to southern US.

But, profits still weren't high enough.  Problem:  high wages (southern mostly-white Americans working for less money than mostly-white northern Americans, but still getting paid too much).  Solution:   China, NAFTA, Mexico, etc.

So, here's the question:  If Trump cuts off imports and expels the Mexicans, will he and his rich friends start paying Americans $20 per hour that they've been paying somebody else to do for $2 per hour?   Or, is it their vision that Americans work for $2 per hour?

Something to think about, don't you think?

Of course, what Trump could do is to subsidize the workers: allow his rich friends to pay workers peanuts, so they keep getting richer, and then Trump  can provide government benefits to workers, so they can live half-way decent lives.

Maybe he will do this.  Let's see.  Of course, one group of people call that socialism, and another group - the OTHER group - call that fascism.

Early reports are that he is meeting with - coercing? bribing? bullying? - trade union leaders, specifically the trade unions involved in building and construction.  Of course, building is what Trump knows, and, does anybody know if he has a history of paying workers anything more than the least amount possible?   You know, the guy who thrilled Americans by saying "You're fired" on TV.   

And, when he starts "building," will he repair the road where the blue-collar worker lives, or, will he force them to work cheaply to build roads to things like golf resorts, gated communities, private airports, etc?

One of Ronnie Reagan's early big successes was breaking the air traffic controllers union, and, looking back, don't many people see that as the turning point in the decline of the blue collar workers' fabled "good paying jobs?"

But, every four years, Americans get to vote for what they get.

But, something else could happen:  if the jews get their wish for World War III, when the dust settles, there will be jobs for all of the survivors: trying to rebuild what was destroyed.  Will they be the fabled "good paying jobs?"  You know, when the dollar is dead, and the shekel is the world currency, and the jew is our paymaster.
