Her politics are closer to Mussolini than to Trotsky.

Her politics are closer to Stalin than to either. Megalomaniacal. Tyrannical. Duplicitous. Amoral.

Satan spawn.

Mexico welcomed Tolstoy and the Menschaviks. If you want to see what it did for Mexico...and what we can learn from it,
get the DVD FOR GREATER GLORY with Andy Garcia and Eva Longoria.

Know what is coming to the US.

Historical analogies with Russia are often interesting.

For example, one can compare the situation in the US to that in the USSR before its breakup in 1991.

Or, one can draw a worrisome analogy between the Democrats' encouragement of BLM and Russian Duma encouragement of murdering police in the summer of 1917.

But I do not see merits in the analogy in this article... no argument that she is a hardcore leftist, but why specifically a Men'shevik? And who is a bol'shevik then? Labelling Sanders as one would at least creates *an appearance* of the same pattern repeating, bu the author does not do this... and then what is the point to bring up Men'sheviks?

P.S. That old english method of dealing with unruly women was brought to this continent by the colonists, and was practised here for some time. According to Wikipedia, it was only removed from British Law in 1967, IIRC.

Hillary as POTUS will likely appoint two possibly three Supreme Court Justices turning the court to the far left. First causality will be the Second Amendment followed by a deep eroding of the First Amendment through Internet censorship and reinstating the “Fairness Doctrine” not only to broadcast media, but cable news as well. We may have to resort to shortwave radios to get uncensored news from beyond the Hillary curtain and be on the lookout for Federal brown shirts knocking on our doors looking for our guns. Welcome to Hillary’s fascist America.

Neocons are natural allies of Hillary and the fascist wing of the Democrat party. Like Hillary, neocons support state control of the economy - on a global scale and are the beneficiaries of corporate largess. The only difference between Neocons and Hillary is that they tend to be social conservatives which she is not. Problem is, Mr. Trump, a capitalist and therefore an anti-fascist, is not a strict social conservative either.

This leaves Hillary an opportunity to co-opt the neocon elites who have traditionally supported the Republicans. I think Trump has two options. He can either let them go, along with their money, access to media and academic talent (useful in an administration) or he can attempt to compromise with them.

The neocons are open to this. Their continual (somewhat sniveling) calls for him to "prove" he is a conservative is neocon speak for "throw us a bone here. Show us you'll protect our privileges and those of our corporate patrons if you are elected." I think listing he picks for judges, all social conservatives, was one important step in the right direction but they want more. Fortunately, it's a negotiation and Mr. Trump is better at that than either Hillary or the neocons. And all he really needs to do in neutralize them until the election.

Hillary's character may be Stalinist but her economic and social policy are pure Mussolini.

Hillary will never nationalize agriculture but she will regulate every pesticide, fertilizer, employee's salary and benefits. If she can she'll regulate what crops you can plant, how deep you can till, whether you can irrigate, how deep the well is and how many acre feet you can pump - and oh yea, is that a solar powered pump? That said, you'll still be able to own your own farm. And that's the big difference between communism and fascism.

Trump is creating a deal with the public. He is building a constituency large enough to insure winning the election by offering enough to bring various sectors into his camp. Of great interest is his technique for achieving this result.
Trump is not offering different rewards to different groups, as the progressives and golobalists do. His product is tailored to the fundamentals of this nation’s founding, its republic nature. He is ensuring the rights of the individual over the power of the majority.
Hillary claims something is wrong with our democracy. She is correct but she is very wrong. We are not a democracy. We are a republic. We are not ruled by a cobbled together majority with no greater morality than their own.
We are not a collective. We are a nation of independent states that exists to protect individual liberty. We forget this at our peril. Trump remembers and insists upon its tenets. Hillary most assuredly does not.

The Progressive Movement has always been the Menshevik side of communism. The creators of the movement saw the damage caused by Bolshevism and remember that the US Civil War was still an actual memory for living people in 1905. So they followed the soft method: the Nudge.

But, this article is wrong about Hillary. She broke with Alinsky because he chose the Nudge and she wanted the Glorious Revolution back in 69.

Thank you for causing me to learn about this. I love FR; I learn something new here every day.

According to that Wikipedia piece, the offense of common scold among the descriptions of disorderly conduct was not removed from New Jersey law until 1972.

the chairman who stepped down and recommended Debbie Wasserman Schultz was Tim Kaine
I went online to validate that story - but I immediately found an Snopes fact-check which attributed Kaine’s resigning and the DNC’s selection of Wasserman-Schultz as his replacement both to President Obama.

. . . and since Snopes is a fact checking web site, that settles that.

Then he will weaken his own campaign. He never used the word Capitalism in his acceptance speech. If he does not fight the battle for Capitalism, he will lose the race. We Americans who still can think are hungry for a battle of fundamental ideas. We agree already she is rotten to the core. He must speak clearly like Reagan did and stop saying, “I’m gonna do this detail or that.”

Louis, you say Trump is fighting for Individual Rights. But I cannot think of an example of him saying: this is a battle of the Individual vs. the Collective.

While he is not ideological Trump’s emphasis is always on persons rather than groups. He is, at rock bottom, Constitutional (republic) rather than global (democratic). Seriously, are you going to hold out for some kind of formulaic terminology? I promise you will not get it out of Trump.
