Like people being upset over the estabilishement so they elect a crazy person sort of like an irrational protest?


I know he is rich and helps those poor rich people, but some people describe SJW as marxists, white privilge as class guilt, I know Trump is like far from pc but is there some kind of a social justice feeling with him? Like he is so sensitive and easily butthurt he just has to go nuts and take over?

If he preaches: social ownership, non existence of competition, redistribution of income,and the most important: proletarian revolution . Then, yes, he and his helpers are marxist.

Hell no! Trumpconomics are completely opposite to Marxian economy. For basic information why check professor Richard Wolff's analysis about Trump's actions. So far what he has done has nothing to do with Marxism, in fact, he is much closer to what fascist Benito Mussolini did.

Yeh, he does have a social justice feeling to him, just flipped. A SJW would relentlessly push in favor of marginalized people, Trump just does so for guys who aren't quite. His fight against "political correctness" has honestly just been him, in a way, advocating to stop the hushing of questionable statements from his questionable base. But that's just the biggest example imo. Trump's pushes seem to be viewed as leveling the playing field for whites in general for some amount behind himself. If racists and such can look at SJWs and say their cause isn't even an issue/thing YET still call them SJWs, I think I can look at Trump and say that he's a SJW of sorts despite not believing his gripes are warranted.

Not a Marxist at all though.

I wouldn't call it Marxism.

But the SJW/PC Culture hypocrisy is very much there. I mean Trump is deliberately trying to censor any bad press about him, going as far as trying to get journalists arrested or their credentials revoked. There was a recent case where even a comedian made was arrested for a twitter joke against ICE. They broke down his door and put him in holding with no basis other than looking like a possible Mexican illegal.

And I love how the right always talks about "respecting the office of president" yet that was not the case with Obama. As I recall, they tried to slander him as a radical Muslim who was born in Kenya and wanted to take everyone's guns away. The biggest irony of it all was that Trump was at the head of the birther movement.

Trump is just a genius, but I think he didn't use his intellgence enough to east some political issues. He just added more stir to some situations. On some parts of his presidency he did good, on some other parts not really in the interest of the public, but the overall results from my point of view shall be seen at the end of his presidency. How America now and after is a matter of time. 2020 or 2024. Play the waiting game, my friend. This hell of a ride is still going.

Pretty much sums up Marxism.

OT: He's neither a Marxist or a Capitalist he's more of a populist. His policies are all over the place appealing to those that'll get him the most votes.

the goal for marxists is to remove wealth for the individual and give it all to the government and make it so that no person own's anything.

Somehow that does not fit the rescription i see about trump, so i would answer no to you question "op" "Could Trump be described as a Marxist takeover"

Marxist?

There aren't millions of dead littering the streets, so I would consider that reason enough to distinguish it from anything Marxist, right there.

What is unfolding is a Constitutional Revolution. It is not just POTUS, it is an entire team of military and career professionals who have been working behind the scenes to unravel the various mechanisms by which society has been controlled by a criminal syndicate repeatedly appointing themselves into government and corporate positions.

The policies that POTUS has actually put in place are much closer to libertarian in their ideology, trimming back the power of the state or using it very precisely to address crime that has seen little enforcement (such as human trafficking). Civil Asset Forfeiture is a tool that has been used, ingeniously, to disarm a number of hedge funds primed to crash the market in the event this group of criminals lost control of key positions. Again - this isn't just POTUS, it is an entire team that has analyzed this structure for years - decades - and formulated a plan to take it down and restore power to the people.

Every major election has been rigged in the past 30 years, and then some. Prior to outright rigging of ballot counts, the system was already consolidated down into binary choices of candidates wherein each candidate could be a plant from the same syndicate, voicing slightly different tones to the same overall goals. Media has been used to subvert reality and install within the minds of the population a false world of distorted history and carefully selected coverage of current events.

Does no one remember the idea that he was nominated so Hillary would win? But then it backfired...

Trump will lead the way to a democratic-socialist paradise because of his failures. He is spark that will ignite the flame that will bring the Republican Party down.

his speech pattern have been analysed and he have the word vocabulary of a 5 grader...

if trump is an intellectual then more than 80% of the users on this site is rocking a 180+ IQ (if he is an outlier for what is an intellectual)
A curious number of people, who believe themselves to have a thought worth listening to, seem to be unable to grasp the idea that a person is in command of their own words and character. Because they read every speech the man has ever given, they believe that they are able to, somehow, see deeper than the speeches given. What is even more amusing is that people with a verbose manner of speech, such as myself, are assailed by these same people as using 'word salad' and being a charlatan who pretends my big words contain meaning.

Trump can use simple words to strike right at the heart of the matter. What is very ironic is the forum on which we are discussing the use of simple, direct language to convey a point... and some people taking this as a sign of a person lacking intelligence. If anything, I would argue it is a sign of wisdom. Trump is looking to have his message understood, not to wow people with the use of big words, like corpse-man.

Dude it’s all rhetoric. Also, to be fair, all presidential addresses use 8th grade level vocabulary. I took several linguistic and rhetoric courses in college. His speech patterns are for your attention and then just reinforcement like all good rhetoric.

It’s not wisdom, get off his nuts.
