Information isnt Advocacy
Wallace and Trump represent the very same point of view.Trump's words and actions are very reminiscent of Mussolini. He really knows how to appeal to the lowest common denominators.No doubt you can speculate on any number of mindless unsubstantiated theories. One thing we know for sure though, Donald Trump is the only candidate encouraging his followers to commit acts of violence.
As long as leftists who aren't candidates are calling the shots for violent confrontation, that's OK, but when a candidate says to fight back, that's not.
You are a true bitch of the left. Just a complete mindless automaton. I start threads against Trump because I oppose him. Peaceful protests are a great way to express your views. You people go Brown Shirt saying ... Trump ... is the fascist
You can look much closer to home for Trumps tactics. He got them from George Wallace.
Bullshit and playing the race card .. this is where the head up your ass is clearly obvious...
What Donald Trump Owes George Wallace
On paper his speeches were stunningly disconnected, at times incoherent. But videotapes of those 1968 rallies captured a performance. A wild energy seemed to flow back and forth between Mr. Wallace and his audience as he called out their mutual enemies: bearded hippies, pornographers, sophisticated intellectuals who mocked God, traitorous anti-Vietnam War protesters, welfare bums, cowardly politicians and “pointy-head college professors who can’t even park a bicycle straight.”
For the television networks the spectacle became irresistible, particularly since rallies often erupted into violent chair-throwing confrontations between Mr. Wallace’s supporters and angry demonstrators. Hunter S. Thompson understood that George Wallace’s followers were not interested in position papers on banking regulations or the pros and cons of thermal energy. Watching the Alabama governor perform was awe-inspiring to the gonzo journalist, who likened the rallies to a Janis Joplin concert “in which the bastard had somehow levitated himself and was hovering over us.”[...]
At the same time, the rejection of the euphemisms of polite political rhetoric is part of the great appeal of such figures. As one of Mr. Trump’s supporters at a Dallas rally told a Slate reporter: “I love that he’s talking in everybody else’s language. He’s not trying to be politically correct.”
THAT response is simply an update from one of Mr. Wallace’s 1968 followers: “George doesn’t give us some mealy-mouth ‘on the one hand and on the other’ spiel. He tells it like it is and if it offends some government bureaucrats and loudmouth civil rights agitators, so what? He’s standing up and fighting for real Americans.”
