What is the difference between Jim Jones and Trump

If it were up to Trump, he'd probably rather be compared to Hitler, if we're being honest.

 

would hitler say something like this

 

Are there any famous draft dodging authoritarians other than Trump?

 

lol another quality Trump thread.

 

Clinton, Bush, Cheney, Biden. Probably many more.

They had some of the same self serving agendas. Hitler was much smarter, more articulate, and maybe more evil although you can argue they are both sociopathic. OBviously its not even a comparasion outside of internet hyperbole which also doesn't absolve Trump from lying and putting himself first and basically saying american democracy odesn't work. News flash, he did it in 2016 and then said now that he wins, rigging doesn't matter. 2020 he just lost so we saw it play out.

I think hitler may not be dumb enough for this one though

but thats the thing, we went for 'popular'. Outside of trumps show you know what else was top notch popular at the time for reality show? Kim Kardashian and Jersey shore...ratings don't always mean brilliance, but don't worry Kim was helping trump do criminal justice reform. Jared and ivanka did everything else, even kanye gets a seat in the white house.

but trump is a BRILLIANT showman. he can entertain and capture. Its the the car wreck mentality, everyone wants to stop and see and trump knows that

in fact his quotes really show he gets his audience


"“The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people’s fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular. I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration—and a very effective form of promotion.”"


and then of course the famous he can shoot someone in 5th avenue and won't lose a vote basically conceding that his voters aren't the smartest or most educated, he could be a murderer and they don't have the wits to care or know as long as he keeps selling them big dreams, he know people will be buying

as tucker carlson said, trump is a glorified car salesman. We'd love for those guys to run the country, right? lol I 'm all for a business man or more efficient governtment, how abotu someone whose had comparable experience running a large scale operation with employees and differetn divisons on oppose to a family business with less than 15 employees which not only goes unchcked was fed half a billion from his father and according to inflation would've done almost as well if he didn't touch the moeny, let alone his 14 bankruptcies...or the guy who manufactured his own brand in china is going to figure out how american can be less china dependent....don't worry "only he can do it"

Talk about sheep. ITs comical.

 

Do you want me to go through the list of the dumb and moronic **** sleepy joe biden has said in only 6 months of his presidency.

 

Touché on Cheney. But the others weren’t authoritarians. But I understand you like to defend the guy you dream of blowing.

 

Won’t match your list of dumb posts.

 

Lol, why would you? why would that be the answer to exact quotes that trump is so obviously trump first and the supporters really are dying on a hillwhere there are quotes of him lying constantly?

The answer is but but joe biden?

Joe biden is an incompetent incomrehensible career politician with a terrible, terrible and more importnatly deadly,costly track record of being wrong in wars, tpp, prisons, so on so forth.

Thats the issue with tribalism. Cnn and fox run this show like a sports team and you get blinded homer support pointing to the other side meanwhile they all self serve, gerrymander, and bascally get mindless sheep to cheer on their future bust in the capital even at the expennse of their own benefit.

its an odd cult to ee. The only winners are news and the incumbents, the losers are american people

Its laughable to here trump cultist support his lies, support his family taking advantage and getting power over america

Its also laughable to here people defend biden a guy who had such a terrible track record and had to drop out for lying in the 80s, got killed in 2008 but somehow he became trusty uncle joe despite his love of wars and getting so so much wrong, apparently he was going to be the guy to get iright just bc hes been around. And trump of course, overselling, under delivering on so much but his supporters take it in the ass like they want king george and a monarchy back in. ITs hilarious to here them call themselves conservatives but when it comes to trump undermining the constitution or law and order, then the law and order stuff goes out the window.

the cycle continues

 

I think they are all at least as authoritarian as Trump. Most US presidents are right of center (capitalist) and more authoritarian than libertarian. I have never had homosexual fantasies, but it is pretty gross that you would use being gay as an insult.

 

Berlusconi is still the best comparison of a corrupt kleptocrat.

Trump didn't burn any Jews in the oven. Just saying..

Trump is a lot of things but he isn’t Jim Jones .
