  1. Yeah, "a better job at covering Trump." So why exactly couldn't they do this with Obama? "He was flawless and never lied" is not an honest answer.

  2. We want our socialist dictatorship and we want it now! Whaaaaaah!

  3. Like a lot of people have noted here...the people making this video really don’t know what they’re talking about. Most noteworthy is the fact that the test is based on Jung’s typology. Anyone who thinks they know something more than C. G. Jung is clueless.

  4. Yeah, when Donald Trump wasn't president all the smart and morally superior people trusted the government. Now that the NSA, CIA, Silicon Valley, Hollywood, Education, and Journalism are telling us to hate Trump...The smart people are with them. Down with "the man"...and up with the men. Real rebels don't love "Big Brother." At least admit what side your on in the conflict between autonomy and the rave of the lemmings.

  6. Wow, more scientific proof that Donald Trump is "authoritarian." We now know that Democrats who favor a more centralized and more powerful government with more laws regulating all aspects of a person's life are low in authoritarianism. Those who are sick of the growth of the state and want a more libertarian decentralized government are "authoritarian." And don't forget that, although Trump favors vetted and legal immigration, he opposes, like most countries in the world, random people coming into the country illegally . Clearly a problem with "the other." This reeks of the same skewed and phony "scholarship" as Theodore Adorno's discovery that half of the political spectrum was authoritarian -- the half that didn't support his own Marxist philosophy (which we all know is decidedly non-authoritarian). 'I'm sure this scholarly and scientific format will be quite convincing to some, perhaps many but for some of us... 'Nice try.

  7. Generally speaking, she comes across as nicer and more authentic than anything the angry Jacobin "progressives" have put out there. hopefully no one is seriously considering a character like Hillary Clinton to be Conway's better by any measure.

  8. Why? We allow millions of immigrants in legally. Where’s the contrived horror over Japan’s immigration policies or virtually any other country on the planet for that matter.

  9. I'd suggest that the nationalism in the U.S. (Trump) is more a reflection of pragmatic concerns -- not wishing to be taken advantage of in trade etc. many would argue that through the Obama administration, America's leaders seemed willing to sacrifice their citizens' interest to global ideological schemes. In this respect U.S. populism is less reactionary and often riddled with libertarian elements. Japan, from what I can see, has smaller but more radical movements with a strong emotionally driven concern to undo the effects of their loss of the second world war. America has had a non-stop "progressive" move to bigger and more centralized government over at least 100 years. While the pendulum occasionally swung back and forth, the general momentum has been left. The populism today is in many respects an attempt by many to merely say "stop!" There may be some common likeness between Japan's and other country's resurgent nationalism but there is plenty of difference as well.
