Steve Sailer writes<\/a>: Another one of those ideas looming just outside the realm of the thinkable is that for the Democrats to import ringers from abroad to win elections, which Democrats have boasted about throughout this century, is a shameless example of political corruption. This is especially true when the Democrats are more or less explicitly making a deal with the Republican donor class: You Republican plutocrats immediately reap the economic advantages of immigration to your net worths, we Democratic politicians later reap the political advantages of their children\u2019s votes.<\/p>\n

Talk about a Corrupt Bargain!<\/p>\n

But almost nobody quite has the conceptual vocabulary to think about this yet.<\/p>\n

COMMENTS:<\/p>\n

* As for Trump popularity, he\u2019s the people\u2019s middle-finger aimed at the pasty faced white elite on Wall Street and the Beltway that have ruined the country over the last 30+ years. He\u2019s also done a great job exposing the phony distinctions between left and right in the political arena \u2013 there isn\u2019t any. Both support race replacement, eradication of the middle-class, perpetuation of a a permanent political ruling class, etc.<\/p>\n

His best work so far is to show how much the GOP establishment hates the guts of ordinary white Americans and what they consider important. I knew since GHW Bush the buggers running the party were a mean and rotten lot always promoting agendas that hammered the working class like a steam hammer on a anvil, then running and wrapping themselves in BS social issues to hide their contempt for the base. With Trump they couldn\u2019t do that since he doesn\u2019t play their game, it forced them out in the open to show their contempt for America and it\u2019 s people. Now a lot of people want them do drop dead.<\/p>\n

* Trump\u2019s ground game is holding mass rallies at least three nights a week. This way he is in effect shaking hands with thousands each night he speaks. He provides visible moments, connection and engagement to a mass of people. At 69 Trump is too rich and too old to go begging door to door and to suck up to farmers and other people at coffee klatschs and luncheonettes.
\nTrump likes protesters to come so he can mock them as they are ejected. Shows he is the Big Man.<\/p>\n

* What is the deal with RedState? Almost every other article over there is a bash of Trump. One contributor went as far as to say he\u2019d vote for Hillary if Trump was the candidate. Even the comment section is anti-Trump. All I can think of is that this site is owned lock stock & barrel by the donor wing of the Republican Party.<\/p>\n

* In the unlikely event that both men [Trump and Sanders] win their respective nominations I think everyone will be surprised at how similar their views are on foreign policy and economics. They are both mildly isolationist, both for \u201cfair trade\u201d tariffs, and both are immigration restrictionists.<\/p>\n

* White Left wants to live in a nation where whites are the minority. White Right wants to live in a nation where whites are the majority.<\/p>\n

Okay, then how about this? All white leftists move out of UK and go live in Africa, Asia, or Arabia. They will become instant minorities of blacks, browns, yellows, etc. The will get what they want right away. As for white rightists who stay in UK, they will have their white majority nation. They will get what they want.<\/p>\n

So, both sides wins.<\/p>\n

If white leftists want to become a racial minority, they don\u2019t have to try to make it a reality in the UK. They can have it instantly by moving to non-white nations. There\u2019s no need for immigration of non-whites into the UK. All that is necessary is white British emigration to non-white nations.<\/p>\n

With immigration, it will take decades before UK is majority non-white. But if whites move to Africa, Asia, or Arabia, they will become minorities instantly. So much easier!<\/p>\n

So, how about the white-right-stay and white-left-leave policy for the UK and other European nations.<\/p>\n

* Since at least the 1980s the political class has told us that feeling squeezed by immigration is an embarrassing character flaw typical of unsuccessful Whites. These low-status Whites can atone for their sin by cheering on the big banks. Feeling squeezed by the big banks is another character flaw typical of unsuccessful Whites. It, in turn, can be forgiven as long as the White in question does lots of cheering for mass immigration.
\nFeeling squeezed by big banks or mass immigration is forgivable, feeling squeezed by both is anti-Semitism.<\/p>\n

* I see a big difference between Sanders and Trump, which is the difference between the honest Left and the honest Right. Sanders is going to be soft on crime, because he (and generally the Left) thinks it is only a matter of leveling the inequalities, which he is certain he will achieve. Trump on the other hand will not be soft on crime, because, while he (at least in discourse) also believes in leveling the inequalities (perhaps not as much as Sanders though), he is not foolish enough to think this will solve the short term crime problem (and perhaps not even the long term one). So, the question every voter has to ponder is: after the mess that Obama has made when he publicly demoralized the police, is it possible for a newly elected president to revert the situation or will any attempt to do so cause a civil war?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
