The U.S. government is wiped out in the first few minutes of episode one by terrorists, and in episode two, the focus is naturally on the civil rights of American Muslims.
Obviously the Jews who made Designated Survivor don’t give a toss about Muslims, so why make them the focus of the second episode? Because they’re a stand-in for Jews. The Hollywood Jew’s prime concern is the well-being, safety and prestige of people like him.
Just as Jews deserve safe spaces where they can avoid the presence of goyim, so too goyim deserve safe spaces where they can avoid the presence of Jews. We should all have freedom of association, in person and online.
When we do step into the safe space of the other, we should not be presumptuous.
It is not at all clear that Jews belong on the Alt-Right. The movement may very well mean, to quote Greg Johnson, white nationalism and anti-Semitism or nothing at all.
Different groups have different genes, different histories, different norms, and different interests. It is absurd to think that if we are all stuck in the same country, we’ll all get along. Different peoples barely get along any better than other mammals do.
Ari Ben Canaan at the blog Alt Zionism writes:
While certain strains within the Alt Right have explicit pretensions to being an intellectual movement, much of the movement remains mired in paranoid insularity and anti-intellectual purity-spiraling. This paranoia was on full display when I was banned from the reddit subreddit r/altright for posting a critical comment to an upcoming “Ask Me Anything” feature with Dr. Kevin MacDonald. The comment, in its entirety, is the following:
Dr. MacDonald,
First, I’d like to express my thanks as Jew for your devotion to serious discussion of the Jewish question. Too many of my people would like to pretend that it is not a serious question, but doing so prevents them from understanding themselves and their place in the world. No matter who one is or what one believes, one must admit that your work on Jewish issues has kept the flame of serious investigation of the Jewish question alive.
As I understand, it is your position that, over the course of the diaspora, Jews have developed a set of characteristics that have allowed them to preserve their unique cultural and genetic existence as a population while avoiding persecution from host nations. These characteristics include: high verbal intelligence, strong in-group favoring biases, high endogamy, and a predilection toward manipulating the political, cultural and intellectual apparatuses of their host nation in such a way as to prevent their host nation from organizing against them.
Is this synopsis of your view correct? If so, I have the following questions for you:
1) To what extent, do you think, is the presence of this set of characteristics among Jews determined by their genetic inheritance? In your opinion, do particular genotypes exist in the Jewish population that dispose those who possess them to subversive and critical behavior? If so, what kind of cognitive mechanisms might these genotypes code for, on the implementation level? And how could such sophisticated cognitive mechanisms have evolved in hardly 1000 years? It would seem ridiculous to suggest that Jews evolved a particular cognitive mechanism or set of mechanisms that disposes them to identify non-Jewish political organizations and seek to obtain control of those organizations without appearing to be Jewish. The conceptual sophistication of such a mechanism would surely be far too great for that mechanism to have evolved in such a short time. Or do you think that a set of various more innocuous cognitive traits can do the explanatory work?
2) It would seem to me that there is a wealth of evidence from Jewish demographics and history that disconfirms your view. For example, the existence, success and continued appeal of Zionism, which rejects assimilation and even the continuation of the diaspora, would appear to confute the claim that Jews have evolved an evolutionary strategy that relies on living among host nations. If nearly 50% of the world’s Jews have decided to leave their host nations within the past 120 years, how can it be plausible that Jewish evolutionary strategy is geared toward the creation of favorable conditions for Jews in host nations? For another example, take the present-day rate of intermarriage among American Jews, which is an astounding 58%. How could a population that evolved such strong endogamous and in-group favoring characteristics come to marry out of their tribe at a rate such that within 3 generations, their tribe will practically cease to exist?
I am sure that all these questions would merit a rather lengthy response, so feel free to respond to as many or few as you like.
In part, I re-post the comment here in the hopes that it will find its way to Dr. MacDonald, whose answers I am eager to hear. But I post it also to show how the paranoia and insularity of the Alt Right serve only to hamstring the movement. For while any political movement must take care to defend its figures and ideas against their opponents, it is in the interests of all burgeoning movements to promote serious discussion of their ideas.
In an email to me earlier tonight, Ari Ben Canaan wrote:
Mr. Ford,
One would expect an individual such as yourself to have the decency to refrain from posting, in their entirety, long-form essays written by other authors.
To put the point another way: I expect you to remove my post, ‘On Spencer’s Herzlianism for the Current Year’, from your website as soon as possible. Feel free to leave a link.

So this Ari Ben Canaan is all for the serious discussion of ideas, but not if it involves excerpting his blog, but we do have his gracious permission to “leave a link.”
I sure wish now, upon reflection, that I had published every single post in full of the late blog Journal of American Greatness, before it suddenly disappeared in the wink of an eye (along with hundreds of other examples of great content online disappearing from easy access).
As there is no monetary value to essays of thought, and so no author is being robbed by being republished online, I wish all the good essays and important pieces of information were correctly attributed and published across the web as widely as possible in as many places as possible. Given that all the tech giants are united in their desire to suppress the Alt-Right and other forms of gentile nationalism, we have to get out the word every way we can. This is no time for demanding that people do not excerpt you, especially when they correctly credit you and link to you.
Given that the gatekeepers are against us and trying to squelch free speech, us dissidents have to get out the word (and it is nice to do this with correct attribution and linking to the original source, as I always strive to do).
Nothing is personal. There’s no need to get upset over people spreading our work (if it means no loss to our pocketbook or reputation).
It seems like everybody claims to welcome a serious discussion of ideas but only if it is done on their terms. Anything else is not truly serious.
To parody Ari Ben Canaan, while certain strains within the writing of Ari Ben Canaan have explicit pretensions to being intellectual, much of the work remains mired in paranoid insularity and anti-intellectual purity-spiraling. This paranoia was on full display when I got an email tonight from this blogger.
For posting excerpts and critiques of an essay invite interest in the idea from those who had not previously considered it, and give adherents of that idea the opportunity to articulate and defend their positions to the public. In brief: a critique of an idea is a kind of serious discussion of that idea, and after being consigned to the hated and ridiculed fringes of American public discourse for so long, Ari Ben Canaaon ought to jump at the opportunity to have his views discussed seriously.
The policy of banning quotations of his blog amounts to a policy of intellectual self-ghettoization, the end result of which will be a movement like the Flat Earth Society, in which everybody agrees but about which nobody cares. And the work of Ari Ben Canaan is too important to go the way of the Flat Earth Society.
LINK: “Alt Zionism is, as its name suggests, a blog dedicated to writings on those two estranged brothers of contemporary ethnonationalism: the Alt Right, and Zionism. The author, Ari Ben Canaan, is an anonymous Israeli-American academician, dissident from and dangerously subversive to the mainstream on both sides.”
The author’s first two posts back up his self-description.
One of the conclusions I’ve come into over the decades is that an awful lot of what is positioned as important ideological idealism is really just careerist self-promoters — Bruce Jenner, Alicia Machado, etc etc — cynically hitching rides on fashionable dumb ideas. (Conversely, Trump is a self-promoter hitching a ride on some ideas that, I hope, are less dumb, but at minimum have certainly been less fashionable.)
And so many of the details always seem to follow the stereotypes. For example, telenovela actresses tend to like rich violent guys, like her boyfriend who shot his brother-in-law at a funeral (while Alicia Machado may, or may not, have driven the getaway car) and the narco cartel sicario who may, or may not, be the father of her child. In contrast, she humiliated fiance Bobby Abreu with a sex tape with some other guy, perhaps because, as far as I know, the Philadelphia Phillies slugger only murdered hanging breaking balls.
Another iSteve concept is the rise of the Conquistador-American as the (white) face of accusations of white racism against Hispanics. From Alicia Machado’s IMDB bio:
Date of Birth 6 December 1976, Maracay, Venezuela
Birth Name Joseph Alicia Machado Fajardo
Height 5′ 11″ (1.8 m)Venezuelan-born Alicia Machado is the daughter of a Cuban father and Spanish mother who immigrated to Venezuela during the middle of the 1900s. Her father, a relative of former Cuban dictator Gerardo Machado, fled Cuba and found refuge in Venezuela after the fall of the Machado regime. …
What’s remarkable, though, is how hard it is for Americans these days to see examples of this widespread tendency right before their eyes. Here’s an amazing column in today’s Washington Post from Wednesday morning, 36 hours after the debate, exulting in how the Clinton campaign staff and virtually the entire mainstream media agree that their mutual campaign to promote Alicia Machado’s name is the Smartest.Thing.Ever.
The Daily 202: Trump stumbles into Clinton’s trap by feuding with Latina beauty queen
By James Hohmann September 28 at 9:11 AMTHE BIG IDEA: It might be Hillary Clinton’s most cunning move since the start of the general election. The Democratic nominee set a trap for Donald Trump in the final minutes of the first debate, and he walked right into it.
The GOP nominee’s decision to take the bait and rehash his past attacks of a former Miss Universe for gaining too much weight is now dominating the conversation. And the controversy is helping the Clinton campaign galvanize Latinos and prevent undecided women from moving toward Trump.
Even as Trump proclaimed victory in New York, he allowed during a Fox News interview yesterday that he let himself get a little too irritated “at the end, maybe” when Clinton brought up Alicia Machado. Machado alleges that Trump called her names such as “Miss Piggy” and “Miss Housekeeping” when she gained weight after winning the Miss Universe crown in 1996.
Trump could have brushed off the question and moved on the next morning, but instead he engaged. “She was the worst we ever had. The worst. The absolute worst. She was impossible,” Trump said of Machado on Fox. “She was the winner, and she gained a massive amount of weight, and it was a real problem. We had a real problem.”
– Operatives in Brooklyn had been working with Machado since the summer.
Here’s a vivid Reuters story in English from 1998 recapping the first two of Machado’s major scandals. But despite months of prepping, Hillary’s crack staff apparently completely missed the many stories about Machado in the Spanish-speaking world.
They had a video featuring her story ready to go. Cosmopolitan had a photo spread of her draped in an American flag – to go with a profile – in the can. Machado had also conducted an interview with The Guardian that was “apparently embargoed for post-debate release,” according to Vox. And the Clinton super PAC Priorities USA turned a digital ad to highlight the insults by early afternoon.
The Clinton press shop then set up a conference call for Machado to respond to what Trump said on “Fox and Friends.” Speaking with reporters, Machado recounted how Trump “always treated me like a lesser thing, like garbage” and that his new words are like “a bad dream.” She said in a mix of Spanish and halting English that she watched the debate with her mother and daughter and cried as Clinton recounted her story, Ed O’Keefe reports.
Campaign calls like these are usually gimmicky ploys that get little attention, but this one played prominently in every news organization’s second-day coverage about the debate. Megyn Kelly, against whom Trump leveled gendered attacks against last year after she moderated a debate, then interviewed Machado in primetime on Fox News last night.
– Opposition researchers also gleefully pushed Trump quotes about her from the 1990s. Here are two examples (more are in the social media speed read):
In 1997, Donald told Howard Stern that Machado was an “eating machine” who “ate a lot of everything.” “You whipped this fat slob into shape,” the radio host told Trump. “I don’t know how you did it. I see all these diet plans, everything else. God bless you.” When asked if Trump had “gotten her down to 118,” he said she is going to be there soon. (Via Buzzfeed)
Around the same time, Trump told Newsweek: “We’ve tried diet, spa, a trainer, incentives. Forget it, the way she’s going, she’d eat the whole gymnasium.”
– “Morning Joe” extensively covered the spat today. Joe Scarborough said “this was all people were talking about” at his daughter’s parents night. Mike Barnicle said when he was picking up a prescription at the Duane Reade drugstore, the woman behind the counter – unprompted – referenced the “Miss Piggy” controversy. “She is furious, behind the counter, she’s furious,” he recalled. “Of all the things he’s done in this campaign, this is the one that could linger,” Mark Halperin chimed him. “The Clinton campaign cannot believe he’s giving them the political opportunity…This is exactly what they would want to happen…They couldn’t script it any better!” Barnicle agreed: “The Miss Housekeeping phrase is just as lethal to Donald Trump as Miss Piggy.” NBC’s “Today” show did their own segment this morning too.
– New York Magazine’s Jonathan Chait predicts Trump’s criticism of Machado will have the same staying power as his attacks on Khizr Khan, the Gold Star father who spoke at the Democratic National Convention: “What truly made the set piece work was Trump’s response, which Clinton could not have scripted better if she tried. Unlike the previous allegations, he did not deny them, but instead burst out — three times! — ‘Where did you find this?’ I have seen villains in Disney movies presented with damning evidence react this way, but I have never seen an actual human being do it, until now.”
– Importantly, this story has also broken through across non-traditional outlets:
It was the second story on Telemundo’s evening newscast and the third story on Univision’s.
“Donald Trump Continues to Body Shame the Former Miss Universe He Called ‘Miss Piggy’” is the headline on People Magazine’s home page.
“Alicia Machado Opens Up About Trump’s Treatment of Her: ‘He’s Not a Good Person,’” is the headline in The Hollywood Reporter.
The Palm Beach Post, in the heart of a key swing state, has a listicle in today’s edition: “Alicia Machado: 5 things to know about Trump’s latest target.”
– The gender dynamic is perhaps the most dominant theme in the mainstream media’s post-debate commentary:
“Trump’s interruptions of Clinton are familiar to women” is the headline on the front page of the Boston Globe. Their story, about HRC getting interrupted 51 times during the debate, quotes women in a range of professions talking about how they’ve experienced the same thing.
“Last night’s debate, or the mansplaining Olympics” by Alexandra Petri is the most read story on the opinion section of The Post’s web site.
“Although she would never talk about it in the way that Trump discusses the victimization of being audited, Clinton carries the ever-expanding knowledge of what it’s like to be dismissed, disrespected, and treated unfairly,” Jia Tolentino writes in The New Yorker. “This is precisely why she was so calm and steely last night—so Presidential. It’s why she can express genuine solidarity with people like Alicia Machado, people whom Trump can barely see.”
“When I watch, I sometimes feel like Ingrid Bergman — not European and glamorous, but unnerved, as though I’m being gaslit,” said New York Times Magazine staff writer Susan Dominus. “Trump tries to gaslight an entire country when he plays fast and loose with the truth or insists on logic-defying connections — each of which is an apt tactic for someone who often questions the mental health of women who dare to criticize him. If they are women with big careers … they are ‘neurotic.’ …
“The idea that we should trust men who hate us in private to protect us in the public sphere is the ultimate insult to our intelligence,” adds Post blogger Alyssa Rosenberg.

– Galvanizing Latinos: Beauty pageants are as big as the Super Bowl is for us in Latin America, and it was no coincidence that Machado emerged as a surrogate on National Voter Registration Day. The campaign is working to encourage Latinos and other less-engaged groups who dislike Trump to get on the rolls. “This was about consolidation,” Democratic pollster Stan Greenberg told Greg Sargent. “One of the big things (that has been) holding her back was the failure to consolidate Democrats.”
James Downie, who watched a dial group of 100 likely voters during the debate, elaborates: “After the debate, though there was only a small shift in the group toward Clinton, they had a much more favorable view toward her, and a number of voters who had come in as ‘weak’ Clinton supporters left as ‘strong’ Clinton supporters.”

Breitbart: Washington Post columnist and political revisionist Anne Applebaum is on the warpath against the rising populist forces doing electoral damage to her establishment friends and allies across the world.
The undermining of nation-state sovereignty by the likes of George Soros, the UN, the EU, the IMF, the World Bank, the Davos crowd, the City of London and Wall Street, and the Obama/Clinton/Kerry U.S. interventionist foreign policy groupthinkers has catalyzed the recent, revolutionary sea change in Western politics.
Simply, the silent majority do not want to be led by supra-national governing bodies that are brazenly corrupt.
The blowback can be viewed in Hungary, via the Visegrad 4, at the Austrian elections, in France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Poland, and now in the biggest and most important political battlefield on the globe: the United States.
Applebaum has written about many of these fronts in the Washington Post, the Telegraph, the Spectator, Foreign Affairs, Slate, the NY Review of Books, Gazeta Wyborcza (Poland’s establishment paper of record) and other supposedly “high-minded” outlets and platforms where the urban sophisticates congregate. Populism (read: will of the people), to these people, is a taboo on par with xenophobia and genocide.
The UK, Poland, and the U.S. are the nations Applebaum have made her homes. She is therefore aghast at recent developments in these three nations especially.
Not surprisingly she played an active role in the “Project Fear” strategy ahead of Brexit to try and galvanize the “Remain” vote. Like most of the establishment, Applebaum is a strong believer in the centralization of power around the Brussels/Berlin/Paris axis. Her husband, scandal-plagued former Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski, even gave a speech in Berlin in November 2011 demanding Berlin take more control in leading an ever-more integrated and centrally governed Europe.
Poland, her primary residence, has been the setting for the most dramatic rejection of her political worldview. Her husband and their friends were turfed out of power when the Civic Platform party – which continually pushed for “more Europe” were defeated by PiS last year. Civic Platform became renowned, country-wide, for putting EU interests before Polish interests as well as engaging in petty corruptions and duplicity.
Sikorski desperately wanted to replace Baroness Catherine Ashton as EU foreign affairs spokesman. This bid died with the exposure of the Civic Platform corruption. This turn of events ended Applebaum’s dream of being Poland’s first Jewish-American first lady.
And hell hath no fury like a Polish, Jewish, American elitist scorned. Following the fall from grace, Applebaum began utilizing her global media contacts, disbursing heavily curated and obfuscated “facts patterns” meant to construct an anti-democratic global news narrative depicting the new democratically elected Law & Justice government as far right fascists and illiberal anti-democrats.
The first major Western media attack orchestrated by Applebaum was printed at her home paper, the Washington Post. Her long-time friend and colleague, Deputy Editorial Page Editor Jackson Diehl, wrote a brazenly biased editorial “Poland’s Disturbing Tilt to the Right” filled with lies, innuendo, and invective, and to which I rebutted in the Polish magazine Wprost’s online platform.
Since then a barrage of negative hyperbole has been aimed at the new Polish government by friends, acquaintances, colleagues, and fellow travelers of Applebaum/Sikorski such as Fareed Zakaria, Christiane Amanpour, Ivan Krastev, Edward Lucas, Jan Cienski, Timothy Garton Ash, Norman Davies, Tony Barber, Rick Lyman, Joanna Berendt, Tim Snyder, Henry Foy, Jan Gross, Annabelle Chapman, Matthew Kaminski, Adam Zamoyski, Christian Davies, and many others at politically charged and agenda-laden internationalist media platforms such as the BBC, CNN, NY Times, Financial Times, Politico, The Economist, Wall Street Journal, The Telegraph, The Guardian, Associated Press, and of course Poland’s own (Soros-bailed out) Pravda: Gazeta Wyborcza.
Applebaum, notorious for blocking all debate and any critics on her heavily trafficked Twitter feed, often used to remark that she never spoke of Polish partisan politics in her “journalism” (which was reasonable given her husband’s positions). But this certainly has not been the case as clearly evidenced by a pair of Telegraph columns she wrote in April and July 2010. These columns centered on the tragic plane crash in Smolensk, Russia which killed the Polish President and First Lady (Lech Kaczynski and his wife Maria) and 94 others who comprised the upper echelon of Kaczynski’s Law & Justice party. Read more on Breitbart.
The way the game is rigged these days, this makes sense.
Luckily, in traditional societies, things are different.
REPORT: The first rule of Fight Club – the 1999 film about an underground boxing club for men grappling with masculinity and dead-end jobs – was to never talk about fight club.
Almost two decades after its release, tens of thousands of men have formed a real-life online community called MGTOW, or Men Going Their Own Way.
Their first rule? Abandoning all romantic relationships with women.
On Reddit alone, some 15,000 readers are subscribed to the MGTOW page which declares it is for “men going our own way by forging our own identities and paths to self-defined success; cutting through collective ideas of what a man is.”
Gateway Pundit: On Monday night Hillary Clinton accused Donald Trump of being an insensitive boor for “fat-shaming” Miss Universe Alicia Machado while she was Miss Universe in 1996.
Machado was representing the Miss Universe pageant at the time – which Trump owned.
Machado claimed that she felt humiliated when she was photographed exercising at a gym with Trump watching. He said Tuesday that ‘she gained a massive amount of weight’. (Daily Mail)
In 1998 Alicia Machado was accused of driving her boyfriend from the scene of a murder attempt – at a woman’s funeral.
She was also a porn actress.
It looks like she lost the weight.
She should thank Donald Trump.
Alicia is also a drug kingpin’s baby mama.
Conservative Treehouse: This has to be the worst campaign vetting in the history of failed campaign vetting… Or the most horrible exploitation, Clintonian level exploitation, of a very troubled woman…. You decide.
Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton’s entire campaign narrative is now centered around, and vested in, using a former Miss Venezuela, Alicia Machado, as an attack surrogate against Donald Trump.
Hillary Clinton’s campaign goal is to paint Donald Trump as anti-woman, and fat-shaming, because the Miss Universe pageant owner told Machado she needed to lose the 50+ lbs she gained after winning the 1996 beauty pageant title.
Yeah, it does sound silly. Hillary Clinton is trying to hit Donald Trump for being critical/judgmental of beauty,… in a beauty pageant,… which he owned,… and was therefore the stakeholder in the brand image of the beauty pageant Machado won.
Huh? Yeah, but if that wasn’t silly enough, hold on. It gets really bizarre.
* NBC’s Today show just ran a lengthy interview of Machado, leading with a clip of Clinton at the debate, “Donald, she has a name. Her name is Alicia Machado. And she has become a US citizen and you can bet she is going to vote this November.” The sympathetic segment included the most heart-rending parts of Clinton’s TV ad featuring the former beauty queen’s abuse at the hands of the monster.
I guess NBC’s newshounds don’t watch CNN. No mention of the getaway car, the threats to the judge, the engagement-wrecking sex tape, or serving as baby mama for the cocaine cartel kingpin.
When it comes to new U.S. citizens, I’m not certain that Venezuela is sending us their best.
There’s a rumor that Today has scored a major coup in the Morning News Show ratings wars. They’ve recruited Haven Monahan as the newest Senior National Correspondent.
* Great coincidences in campaign reporting: The Guardian & Cosmo sent reporters just before debate to profile Machado, then pubbed today.
* Too bad we didn’t have a fence to keep out this useless eater Venezuelan beauty queen.
USA- not just Mexico and Guatemala’s dumping ground anymore!
Now we are the dumping ground for all of Latin America, for all the flotsam and jetsam washing up from Venezuela and everywhere south of the United States of America.
* “He can say whatever he wants to say. I don’t care. You know, I have my past, of course everybody has a past. And I’m no saint girl. But that is not the point now … (Trump) was really rude with me, he tried to destroy my self esteem. And now I’m a voice in the Latin community.”
Ah yes; the unspoken paradigm of our age – “yeah, okay, so I murdered a few muhfugguhs….so? Murder just a evvyday thing that happen, nome sane? ….but racism! That shit is juss sick and wrong!”
* This story about Alicia Machado is backfiring on Hillary and the MSM so badly it makes the birtherism affair look like a political masterstroke by comparison.
* We all have a past. I’ve been a getaway driver for assassins and threatened to kill judges many times – who hasn’t? Now can we get back to Donald Trump and his fat shaming. Fat shaming is the most important issue facing America today.
* This morning on Fox News, the announcer said an upcoming segment was going to examine whether Trump’s comments about Alicia Machado were blown up out of proportion.
If Ms. Machado put on 60 pounds, as CNN reported, I’d say she blew herself up out of proportion.
* The focus should be on how does someone of such obviously low moral character become a U.S. citizen in the first place? What skills is she bringing to our country and how are we better off that she is living here?
* There seems to be another complication brewing, which is that there are numerous hardcore porn videos featuring an “Alicia Machado”, who is billed as a former Miss Venezuela or somesuch. Not gonna link (for obvious reasons), and I didn’t watch them, but the lady in the stills bears a striking resemblance.
* These Alicia Machado stories are hysterically funny; it’s amazing that Hillary would use this individual to promote her campaign. Who came up with this idea, anyway? Bill?
I would say that Machado fulfills everyone’s expectations about trashy Latinas, and I think it’s only fair to draw attention to her past activities. Also, she’s very good looking in her various stages of undress. I also think it’s fair to mention — but not to link — the references to a sex tape.
In a way, it’s not fair to discuss someone’s personal life; ad hominem, and so on. But Hillary, and apparently with the cooperation of Ms Machado, chose to select her as a paragon of what the US is and should be. Therefore it’s not only fair to discuss the public career of that paragon, it is necessary.
I didn’t watch the debate because when I heard Hillary’s voice (my wife is big on HRC) I told my spouse I had to run the extra car to keep the battery up so I just drove around for half an hour.
I can’t imagine listening to HRC’s voice for the next four to eight years.
However, the point is that therefore I first heard about Alicia and Donald’s infamous fat shaming while scrolling my twitter feed the next morning. So naturally this appeared to be a gaffe on Donald’s part. It was an appeal — perhaps we might say a naked appeal — for the woman vote, since every woman feels that she is fat, and fat shaming is a political issue. But just as every woman feels that she should lose a few pounds, every woman is going to be envious of a woman of Alicia’s appearance, and moreover, the vast majority of woman are not going to approve of a woman who has made a career out of showing off her body. And that is why this further discussion is necessary.
As a guy, despite the obvious pleasant scenery, I couldn’t care less. However, the publicizing of the career of Ms Machado in the wake of the debate has I believe completely neutralized the “Sisters Unite!” nature of Hillary’s debate night appeal. And that’s worthwhile.
* I almost wish Trump would have said, “I’ve called men a lot worse things, Sweetie.”
And then maybe go on to point out that 99% of the soldiers killed in the damn Iraq war she voted for have been what her most ardent followers like to refer to as “males.” So don’t compare my decision to tweak an irresponsible beauty contest winner 20 years ago to the seriously damaging decisions you have made in your years of “public service.”
* Speaking of loaded language. Here’s the opening of the Editorial Steve linked to in a different entry:
“… When Mrs. Clinton finally got to unload what felt like the pent-up frustration of Everywoman, it was powerful.”
Powerful!
And it was “pent up,” because God knows she’s never had an opportunity express this grievance earlier.
* It seems that Ms. Machado has a problem with la verdad. Megyn Kelly on Fox last night asked her about a contradiction about when she got her “eating disorder.” In 1997 Machado told WaPo she was already barfing up her arepas in preparation for the pageant.
Machado stays on the “Trump bad” message:
“I’m heeere because I know dis person and he nada good person. Dad is de poyn.”
* Can you even be a Miss Universe contestant and be a feminist?
* Trump could not have designed a more perfect case in point, for what Democrats do with immigration, than this woman. Hillary finds a repugnant alien from a Socialist hellhole, who obviously does not have the qualities we look for in a citizen, but who is ready to bring her Socialist country’s narcissistic sense of personal entitlement to all the riches of our country; said alien then proceeds to shill for the treasonous political elites who hooked her up with access to native whites’ social and financial capital, promising to vote against the idea that America and its people should come first; when we are not sufficiently obsequious in this process, they have the temerity to spit in our faces and call us racists.
This is obviously illustrative of our immigration problem in its entirety: we should thank Hillary for making our point for us, and publicize the fact everywhere. I think Trump could be almost as angry and hostile to Hillary as he wanted on this topic in the next debate, with excellent results. I keep hearing people say that Hillary is actually quite smart and has been seasoned by years of political manoeuvering, and that Trump should beware her political acumen. That sounds like it should be true, but I keep concluding that, in fact, she and the rest of the Left have simply never faced real opposition. If one is willing to strike back, they have left themselves open to any number of devastating attacks.
* I think its the duty of men on the alt-right, or just plain old responsible white guys of republican virtue, to stop coddling political nonsense in their women.
Lay it out: “This is a war against white people, against Western civilization–against everything i inherited from my ancestors and hope to pass down to our civilization. If you vote against our civilization you’re voting against me and our children’s future. It is not acceptable and i’m not going to tolerate it. It’s a bright line for me.”
I’ll leave the question of a spanking and what follows it to you. But it’s long past time that white men stopped tolerating adolescent political stupidity in their women.
* What would be unforgivable to me as an employer is the lack of background vetting. Hasn’t HRC’s staff ever heard of Google? Anybody who can use a browser could have found out in half an hour what a nutcase adventuress (love that word) this babe is, but no doubt HRC’s staff think they are so much smarter than everyone else.
* Someone uploaded this 1997 CNN video featuring Trump and Machado. I don’t know if someone else has posted it on another thread. I apologize if they did. But if you haven’t seen it, watch it. Trump is amazingly nice to this woman. And she seems very cheerful and friendly to Trump. Anyone watching this will come away thinking Trump is a good guy.
* Machado may be easy on the eyes, but she is fundamentally the Venezuelan version of white trash. She loves to eat fattening junk food, her taste in men runs toward men who are browner than she is and who are known to the police, and she is a baby momma. America has plenty of its own native white trash women and their illegitimate offspring and really doesn’t need to import any more.
* Having checked out her, er, body of work in the last few minutes I can say she definitely has skills. But nothing a willing American lady couldn’t replicate.

I feel safer already! Glad to see the Jewish Establishment tackling the issues that really matter.
I am sure the Israeli flag is a hate symbol to opponents of the Jewish state and the Cross is a symbol of hate to those who feel oppressed by Christianity.
According to the Bible, those who love God must hate evil. There’s nothing wrong with hate when properly directed.
Forward: The Anti Defamation League (ADL) has added “Pepe the Frog” to its database of online hate symbols. The cartoon frog is a popular meme among “alt-right” Twitter trolls and white supremacists.
Pepe the Frog was originally created in 2005 without any anti-Semitic or racist overtones. At the time, it was simply a meme of a sad frog.
But more recently the frog has been portrayed with a Hitler-like mustache, wearing a yarmulke or a Ku Klux Klan hood.
Pepe has also been used in hateful messages targeted at Jewish and other users on Twitter, according to the ADL.
“Once again, racists and haters have taken a popular Internet meme and twisted it for their own purposes of spreading bigotry and harassing users,” said Jonathan A. Greenblatt, the ADL’s CEO.
“These anti-Semites have no shame. They are abusing the image of a cartoon character, one that might at first seem appealing, to harass and spread hatred on social media.”
Earlier this month, Trump’s son posted a movie poster parody of himself heroically grouped with Pepe and others deemed “The Deplorables” on Instagram.
