  • The Establishment vs Trumpism
    It's certainly true that Trump appeals to outright racists and nativists. He is, first and foremost, the product of a Republican Party that has exploited extremism since President Obama took office. GOP leaders should be called to account whenever they try to prettify Trump by ignoring his assaults on Mexican-Americans and Muslims.   Nonetheless, to ignore the real pain experienced by Trump voters is an even bigger mistake. E J Dionne

    George Simon, a clinical psychologist who conducts seminars on manipulative behavior, says Trump is “so classic that I’m archiving video clips of him to use in workshops because there’s no better example” of narcissism. “Otherwise I would have had to hire actors and write vignettes.

  • Jill Stein for President
    "We are not only deciding what kind of a world we will have in this election," Stein said in accepting the party's nomination at the University of Houston. "We are deciding whether we will have a world or not going into the future. The day of reckoning is coming closer...We cannot wait. We have to act now, if we want to stop that sea level rise from happening in 2050."
    "The lesser evil is a losing strategy because people stop coming out to vote," she said. "Hillary Clinton is the problem. She is not the solution to Donald trump. We are the solution. We are the ones we've been waiting for."
    She quoted Dr. Martin Luther King: "The arc of the moral universe is long but it bends towards justice.""I know that arc is bending in us and through us right now. We are the actors in something that is much bigger than us, as we struggle for peace, community and healing together. Hunter Atkins Houston Chronicle

  • Demexit
    There's nothing new about the use of doomsday rhetoric in politics. Check out historian Richard Hofstadter's classic 1964 essay "The Paranoid Style in American Politics."Trump apparently follows the Machiavellian view that you can win more supporters with fear than with love. But in one authoritarian regime after another, we have seen how the politics of fear often leads to more problems that people should be fearful about.Clarence Page
    Demexit like Brexit has set this country on a  new political course.
