Behind the rise of Trump, long-standing grievances among left-out voters

By Dan Balz March 5 at 4:12 PM

At the core of Donald Trump’s political success this year are the grievances of a sizable and now vocal block of disaffected voters, many of them white and working-class, and a Republican Party that has sought and benefited from their support while giving them almost nothing tangible in return.

I fully admit before Trump opened his mouth I dismissed him as a joke on this very forum and the next day after his announcement speech I was all on board the Trump train. You all read that.

And why? Because I have been railing against the GOP's false, stupid ideology for the longest time that has fooled people into thinking their economic policies were somehow good for the average working man. Trump, rich billionaire himself saw the same weakness in the GOP ideology and struck out at it. I think it is not a put on either - from the research I did Trump has always been into this ideology he is espousing which is nationalist and nativist. To me the pro business GOP was all about fooling the base with distracting social issues (among other such issues like abortion - they talk and do nothing) so that businesses can outsource and import slave illegal labour.

The Great Recession and it's recovery ended the fig leaf I think.

Country first. Build the Wall. Fuck Israel and hang the neo-cons.

You forgot "make America great again". It has even bit the depth and specificity as the "hope and change" mantra of the flim flam snake oil salesman that is currently occupying the WH.

потому что Бог хочет это тот путь
