Trump ad, (1 min., 56 sec.) published on You Tube, Nov. 4, 2016, 4 days before Election Day, Tuesday Nov. 8, 2016
Comment: Very glad to see our unelected global slave masters and parasites including Angela Merkel on the front of this Trump ad.
"What Trump offers is permission to conceive of an American
interest as a national interest separate from the “international
community”."

"The
critical question, however, is not the source of Trump’s popularity but rather the reason his popularity is so shocking to our political
culture....What Trump offers is permission to conceive of an American
interest as a national interest separate from the “international
community”."
9/7/2015, "Traitor to His Class," Julius Krein, Weekly Standard
"Nothing is more terrifying to the elite than Trump’s embrace of a tangible American nationalism....Perhaps his popularity signifies a profound challenge to elite opinion."...

"The way we think of left and right is a relic of the Cold War....Trump...rarely talks about "left" and "right."...There’s a reason....The divisions are no longer
just left and right, at least not in the sense we’ve used those terms
for the past few decades. The shift is splitting all current movements
into nationalist and internationalist wings."...
7/15/16, "A complacent elite is to blame for politics being turned upside down," UK Catholic Herald, Robert Wargas
"The way we think of left and right is a relic of the Cold War. Reality is catching up."
"Trump...rarely talks about "left" and "right" and those movements’
foot soldiers, “liberals” and “conservatives”. Odd, isn’t it? Left and
right are the defining concepts of American politics, yet a Republican
candidate was able to dominate the primary season without mentioning
them at all.
There’s a reason: Western political systems are in the middle of a
realignment. The way we think of left and right is a relic of the Cold
War....
We are heading for a politics in which the divisions are no longer
just left and right, at least not in the sense we’ve used those terms
for the past few decades. The shift is splitting all current movements
into nationalist and internationalist wings – or perhaps populist and
establishment, middle class and upper class, or urban and provincial.
This is happening because so many of the traditional features of left
and right no longer apply to them. A working-class white person seeking
representation used to find it in the left. Now what does he get? A
movement telling him to check his “privilege”. A conservative used to be
able to count on the right to make the case for cultural assimilation.
Now he, too, is told to be quiet and make way for “progress”....
Mainstream Democratic and Labour leaders support large-scale
migration into their countries; mainstream Republicans and Tories do so
as well, in practice if not in theory. All mainstream liberals and
conservatives support free trade, and all are equally likely to regard
sceptics of pure free trade as rather “challenged” individuals.
If “left” traditionally meant state control of the economy, why does
today’s left spurn trade regulation? Because the left is
internationalist. But the right, at least nowadays, is also
internationalist....All sides frame foreign policy debates
in terms of helping foreigners: taking in refugees, “liberating” other
nations and the like. Believing that a country’s foreign policy should
primarily benefit that country’s citizens is now akin to revealing some
perverted fetish.
Millions of Americans...don’t accept a bipartisan consensus
that was formed without their input or permission. Its partisans grew
so resistant to reform they treated their own citizens as a kind of
plague to be contained in the hinterlands, not as stakeholders with
genuine concerns."...
