I think that there are a lot of similarities between Trump and Harry Truman. Both were willing to use simple, direct, and sometimes crude language to get their point across. Both won their election based on blue collar voters in the Midwest and South. Both have bypassed a hostile media based in big cities; Truman did with a train tour with local press coverage; Trump has done it with tweets and mass rallies. Neither got the support of the New York Times.
A difference today is that the media has become so dominated by the extreme left that it makes no attempt to attempt to understand Trump or Trump supporters:
The language of Trump and Truman is not the same as mindless use of profanity, which De Niro put on display. Actually the fact that De Niro and so many on the left have adopt this profanity as a their catch phrase shows their total disgust that the Trump economy is booming and his support keeps increasing despite all their rants.
Why would a sane and rational person vote for âfat Donaldâ as you put it? Because he wasnât fat and disgusting Hillary, thats why!!! Liberal civility back at you!!
Dude. You canât claim that something is an insane rant then reply with an even crazier rant. Didnât your mam ever tell you not to reply while you are angry?
What youâve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
What I just wrote is original and unexpurgated. I did not copy it verbatim off MSDNC nor did I transcribe it directly from Radio mobulis re-broadcasting MSDNC from his planet Pluton in the Hemorrhoid Nebula. I made it all up myself.
