COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE BY NICK COHEN IN THE GUARDIAN
"Only true
liberalism can thwart the demagogues"
Where do you see one genuinely liberal spirit?
I consider myself a liberal, and I can sincerely say I see
nothing of what I care about in Clinton.
She's a war-monger, and nothing can be further from the
meaning of "liberal" than that.
And why do you use the word "demagogues" for those
you do not like?
Trump is not a demagogue, and when the press keeps repeating
that false claim, it only loses what credibility it has left, which, by the
way, is not a lot.
Trump is sincere, of that I have no doubt. I believe he is
mistaken in a number of matters, but I also know that he is right on some
crucially important ones.
The truth is he cannot do any worse than the greatest mass
killer on earth, Barack Obama, and I'm convinced he can do a good deal better.
In politics, you don't get everything you want, but too
often, you get nothing, which is very much the case with Obama, a man who has
failed to do almost anything worthwhile either at home or abroad.
I really think the views expressed here resemble stale, old
crusts of bread being tossed on the walk to feed the pigeons.
