Re: supercilious comment from the Democratic Party spokesman Richard Goodstein of ” I don’t know if your audience follows US politics….” He knows very well what the statistics are for RT which is why this smug, unctuous slime ball accepted the invite. And yes, he does live in another world. The man fairly oozes contempt.
The other commentators were a wonderful contrast. Oh Richard, you did not even read her leaks! …that is called duplicity and hypocrisy….
I view the coming election process with trepidation. I don’t know much of Mr. Trump but I know more than enough about Mrs. Clinton. Mr. Trump may worry me simply because I don’t know much of him but Mrs. Clinton scares the mortal crap out of me because I know exactly what she has done and what she is saying she will do. She is stupid enough and inexperienced enough to start a real and hot war, unlike the lukewarm war we are now in. If she wins, and I think she will, you can be assured my family will be sent away from this city and peninsula to safe haven on the mainland.
Trump has challenged the reason for NATO to exist. This is a good start.
Trump has opened the possible cooperation with Russia. This is very good indication.
Trump wants no more regime change and nation building as foreign policy. This is excellent change.
The Establishment is trying to destroy Trump.
The Media lies about Trump 24/7
There have been existential threats against Trump and his family by the usual culprits who have a long history of eliminating American change agents (JFK, Malcom X, MLK, Jr.).
Trump talks straight. Trump has said the same things for 25 years.
Trump is risking an empire he built to change the globalist plans for destruction of American sovereignty and sovereignty all over the globe.
Trump is the real deal. Imperfect, but sincere. You can’t get every single thing you want from a mortal man.
I’ll take what I see and hear and know of him. He will destroy Clinton in a campaign.
That alone is worth backing him.
He also is crushing the neo-cons and their 70 year hold on foreign policy.
That’s like batting .400 in baseball (a goal so high it has not been done since 1941 by Ted Williams).
So, folks… could this Richard Goodstein guy be any more wrong?!?
Seriously! It’s, like, every single thing he said was the opposite of the truth, every single time!
Then again… I take it, he was meant to be the embodiment of what we hear on the MSM, day in and day out. (Nice, poetic symbolism goin’ there, Pete ;-) )
Hi Saker, thanks for offering so many options about Trump..I agree with you alot.
I guess the final line is that with Clinton we know what we get – yuck – and with Trump we actually don’t know….I mean every single candidate is in Israel’s pocket…I don’t think a person could get to the nominations without that….
And no one is saying Trump is perfect..of course he’s not at all…but he’s all we’ve got to get us out of a railway line to hell…
A Clinton presidency is very frightening to imagine. She’s no less narcissistic than Trump and appears even more entitled from her actions. Yet I don’t quite follow the suggestion that it’s difficult to imagine what qualities an obvious and flamboyant narcissist such as Trump would bring to the office. Opinions may change, as we see, personalities tend to stay the same.
Peter Lavelle, if your Crosstalk team reads this, please note that some of us are very grateful indeed that you put up with insufferable buffoons like Goodstein, week after week, and put them in their place. What a thankless task!
Goodstein is not a buffoon. He doesn’t believe anything he says. He knows they are lies. He is a paid propagandist. Watch it again and notice his technique. He uses all the ploys of the propagandist to disparage any valid critique or fact.
The lay public has been conditioned so much away from thinking and reasoning for fear of being considered a conspiracy theorist that they fail to recognize the other danger – becoming an Incompetence Theorist. (Safer to stick with reasoned empiricism – like our Saker in his analysis of Syria/Russia interactions). Goodstien is a talented and well paid Liar, but no buffoon.
The mainstream media is an unified (in a dualistic way) propaganda organ (aka Frank Wisner’s Mighty Wurlizer) that has creates a ‘virtual’ reality to hide the strategic aims of the technocrats working in the ‘transparent’ reality hidden by the skilled political shills and conmen like Goodstein and Clinton.
Paraphrasing another famous propagandist:
“We’re an empire now, and when we (talk), we create our own reality. And while you’re studying (and responding to) that (statement) —judiciously, as you will—we’ll (talk) again, creating other new (misdirection), which you can (respond to) too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors…and you, all of you, will be left to just study (and comment on) what we (lie and) do.”
Peter Lavelle, if your CrossTalk team reads this. The level of discussion would be better enlivened by bringing in people that are serious about dialog than those paid and skilled to destroy it.
What I note is the hispanic vote noting far more than the Drumpf’s recent belly crawling grovelling is his comments about the wall, waterboarding, etc. they seem to neither know nor care about any other issue. Here’s a few: http://cdn.meme.am/instances/500x/64474806.jpg
The Jewish,and I have no doubt pro-Israeli supporter. Talks about the US military a lot. But according to polls the US military is split in their political support. The majority supports either Trump or Sanders. Clinton’s support among the soldiers is at most 12%. That should tell us something about that.
To all the non-US readers here. You see in Goodstein a perfect example of the propaganda spin and style of US politics. He could be a “poster boy” for how politics is “debated” and run in the US. And unlike on RT,the US (and Western in general) MSM lets them get away with that style of “debate spin”.

Face it: Trump is running for King not President.

Definitely.
Just like Clinton – an extremely bad one.

-TL2Q
“Trump vs. Clinton”
Any chance of parking this and the entire election debate – it is becoming extremely tedious and is a profound waste of time.
Go to the circus instead – the clowns there are generally not depraved and can be quite funny.

It seems you haven’t noticed – we’re there already.

Yet I don’t quite follow the suggestion that it’s difficult to imagine what qualities an obvious and flamboyant narcissist such as Trump would bring to the office.

its fantastic about these indictments about Hilary Clinton – God moves in invisible ways –

Perhaps a more salient question for Mr. Goodstein is:
How many Americans and Libyans did Gadhafi kill as opposed to Hillary Clinton? That would be an interesting answer.
The Jewish,and I have no doubt pro-Israeli supporter. Talks about the US military a lot. But according to polls the US military is split in their political support. The majority supports either Trump or Sanders. Clinton’s support among the soldiers is at most 12%. That should tell us something about that.
