Madeleine Albright: Will We Stop Trump Before It’s Too Late?
NY Slimes ^ | April 6, 2018 | MADELEINE ALBRIGHT

Fascism poses a more serious threat now than at any time since the end of World War II.

On April 28, 1945 — 73 years ago — Italians hung the corpse of their former dictator Benito Mussolini upside down next to a gas station in Milan. Two days later, Adolf Hitler committed suicide in his bunker beneath the streets of war-ravaged Berlin. Fascism, it appeared, was dead.

To guard against a recurrence, the survivors of war and the Holocaust joined forces to create the United Nations, forge global financial institutions and — through the Universal Declaration of Human Rights — strengthen the rule of law. In 1989, the Berlin Wall came down and the honor roll of elected governments swelled not only in Central Europe, but also Latin America, Africa and Asia. Almost everywhere, it seemed, dictators were out and democrats were in. Freedom was ascendant.

Today, we are in a new era, testing whether the democratic banner can remain aloft amid terrorism, sectarian conflicts, vulnerable borders, rogue social media and the cynical schemes of ambitious men. The answer is not self-evident. We may be encouraged that most people in most countries still want to live freely and in peace, but there is no ignoring the storm clouds that have gathered. In fact, fascism — and the tendencies that lead toward fascism — pose a more serious threat now than at any time since the end of World War II.

Dunno, but that headline combined with the opening sentence is reason for the guys in dark glasses to pay a visit to the cleaning lady.

Either Maddie is spewing for her masters who want global fascism, or she is too stupid to see the time she spent trying to enable fascism. This is the female (to call her a woman would be an insult to womanhood) who openly proclaimed she was not in favor of this nation being a super power.

No doubt it had been told to her that the USofA as a free nation with power was the major obstacle for her globalist fascism to succeed, so she systematically tried to end that status by spiriting our military secrets to her chosen nations, like China. This female belongs in Gitmo.

All three. Judging from the headlines I have read today, the tempo of Trump destruction mania seems to be picking up. The one hundred or so very worried puppet masters around the world must be smirking right about now.

Remember when they went off on Rush for saying he hoped Obama failed?

Now they’re actively trying to stop the duly elected President of the United States.

That’s treason baby.

The #neverTrump FReaks here have been emboldened by the propaganda, too.

Albright’s father ‘took war loot to America’

“I cannot believe the American secretary of state enjoys eating with my family’s silver,” Philip Harmer, a great-grandson of Nebrich, said last week. “These things must be handed over to my family.”

Not true. Fascism was a greater threat between 2009-2016 than it is now.

Former democrat government bureaucrats and elected officials are like dog poop on your shoe.

They both stink, stick like glue and are almost impossible to get rid of.

And the women are worse than the men.

Madeleine Albright: Will We Stop Trump Before It’s Too Late?


The date on the article must be wrong. The time to ask this question was before the election.
