Murdoch Rags Ltd wrote:Note that pretty much all the Republican candidates (right wing conservative ideology) deny anthropogenic global warming. I'll post this study again for pertinence sake Quote:Low-Effort Thought Promotes Political Conservatism Abstract The authors test the hypothesis that low-effort thought promotes political conservatism. In Study 1, alcohol intoxication was measured among bar patrons; as blood alcohol level increased, so did political conservatism (controlling for sex, education, and political identification). In Study 2, participants under cognitive load reported more conservative attitudes than their no-load counterparts. In Study 3, time pressure increased participants’ endorsement of conservative terms. In Study 4, participants considering political terms in a cursory manner endorsed conservative terms more than those asked to cogitate; an indicator of effortful thought (recognition memory) partially mediated the relationship between processing effort and conservatism. Together these data suggest that political conservatism may be a process consequence of low-effort thought; when effortful, deliberate thought is disengaged, endorsement of conservative ideology increases.http://psp.sagepub.com/content/early/2012/03/16/0146167212439213.abstract Why wouldnt they when the Koch Brothers fund all their campaigns?

Trump is an anti-immigration racist and misogynist. He cheated on his wife and he's failed businessman who blew all daddy's money on bad ventures and now he's a reality TV star because he's a clown. He bullies his opponents because he cant deliver a sound argument due to his lack of intelligence. Yes he's very much the cult of personality much like Adolf Hitler and he's dangerous because of it. His batshit crazy conspiracy theories on man made climate change echo elders of zion kind of rhetoric. Contrast this to the civility between political opponents Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. That's how we behave in 2015 Trump, note to you. Let the political pros do government Trump, its not for you, you're a TV star, stay a TV star...better yet, just go away!

Professor Kevin Dutton has done extensive research into psychopathy and an interesting statement was made about his research: Quote:"...the chemistry of megalomania which characterises the psychopathic criminal mind is a close cousin to the set of traits often best rewarded by capitalism..." In his 2011 Great British Psychopath Survey he concluded that the ten professions that have the highest proportion of psychopaths are... Number 1. CEOs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Dutton Reality suggests that the highest earners do not have the highest intelligence, but are actually the most psychopathic. Hence it is not wonder that the party that sprouts money & capitalism most in their ideals & speeches, the Republican Party, actually try to manipulate the people more through the use of religion. This is not because they uphold the values of selflessness & altruism of said religion, but they use it in a callous way typical of psychopaths for their own self-absorbed ends.

Thanks for the reply tbitm. I guess since I asked I better state why I would vote for Trump:
- Anti-free trade (including but not limited to NAFTA and the TPP) - Will punish companies for off-shoring/outsourcing jobs - Wants a strong military BUT he will not use it (doesn't want to get involved in Syria and the Israel/Iran/Saudi Arabia proxy-war clusterfuck) - Presents a clear alternative to the establishment (It's why they push so hard against him) - More qualified than most career politicians - Deal with the illegal arrivals at the border and open an opportunity for LEGAL immigration - Anti-political correctness - Will fuck off political donors when they try to bribe him
I don't know if you guys realise, but the man has been a democrat most of his life. Lots of his policies are wayyyyy out from the normal, pro-war neoconservatives of the mainstream republican party.
You all agree with him on alot more issues than you realise.

You are right, if the Jews had guns and fought back the Nazi's wouldn't have taken them so lightly, they would not have sent them to concentration camps, they would have just shot them on the spot and none of the Jews who survived the concentration camps would have survived.

Democratic debate is live now. Bernie almost has too much to say and and has to rush it loudly to keep in time and context, the 3 interchangeable white dudes are making sense but are as bland as church and Hillary shits me. She keeps getting applause for stuff that nationalistic liberals will love and keeps reminding everyone that her Iraq war approval was a 'mistake'. I'm sure the people in that country, and the veterans and victims, will absolutely forgive her :roll: Self-driven af, recommend reading Hitchens' book on Bill Clinton and HST's interview with Bill, strange people, House of Cards-esque
He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

the Democrat debates are a stark contrast. When the adults get their turn its far more civilised.

I've seen online that he is railing against Wall Street & Big Pharma.
Has he given any details policy-wise regarding these 2 areas?

That's because the more right wing one is, the less capable in constructing an argument founded in reason, logic & evidence. As a result, right wing and 'arm waving' go hand in hand & appeal to more simplistic thinking people, who are easily impressed by yelling & slurs.

That's more a feature of conservatism rather than just "right wing" beliefs.
