- All these Trump haters... just being so negative. They need to learn up on how you persuade people. You don't just say no and be negative.fruitsalad
- First you need to agree with Trump, then you need to gently suggest that perhaps grabbing them by the balls is better, as there's more to grip than with a pussyfruitsalad
- That was a crazy example.. but you get the idea, you've got to make Trump feel like he came up with the good idea and that it is good.fruitsalad

“I don’t mind releasing,” he said during his first president debate with Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. “I’m under a routine audit. And it’ll be released. And as soon as the audit’s finished, it will be released.”

“We were keeping our eye on 1984. When the year came and the prophecy didn't, thoughtful Americans sang softly in praise of themselves. The roots of liberal democracy had held. Wherever else the terror had happened, we, at least, had not been visited by Orwellian nightmares.But we had forgotten that alongside Orwell's dark vision, there was another - slightly older, slightly less well known, equally chilling: Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. Contrary to common belief even among the educated, Huxley and Orwell did not prophesy the same thing. Orwell warns that we will be overcome by an externally imposed oppression. But in Huxley's vision, no Big Brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy, maturity and history. As he saw it, people will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think.
What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy. As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny "failed to take into account man's almost infinite appetite for distractions." In 1984, Orwell added, people are controlled by inflicting pain. In Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure. In short, Orwell feared that what we fear will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we desire will ruin us.
This book is about the possibility that Huxley, not Orwell, was right.”

- We've been living "a A Brave New world" for a while now, Trump though want's to create an Orwellian future._niko

honest question: what exactly were the women marching for and protesting against?
serious answers, please. (or not, knowing you QBN cunts)
- Donald Trump.fadein11
- You must have been in the coma during trumps rotten, disgusting, misogynistic campaign.CygnusZero4
- So some women were protesting that Trump was elected by millions of other people? They're protesting the way democracy works? it's confusing. LOLchukkaphob
- why was it a "women march for human rights" and not an "anti-Trump march?" why just women? why human rights??chukkaphob
- Protest is part of democracy, vital in fact. The nation was split on that election - hence the protests (not to mention his numerous comments on women)fadein11
- here's one woman's pov:
https://www.youtube.…Gnash - Do you really not understand why a lot of women (millions in fact) may not be a fan of him? Did you follow the election at all?fadein11
- Well, if you're a guy.. imagine USA elected a female president who says degrading things about men.fruitsalad
- Ask robotard to explain it to you.fadein11
- It wasn't just women marching but it was organised by women. I know some people get uncomfortable when women take control but....lowimpakt
- so they're marching and protesting because they don't like what he said in private? do they know he has 5 women in his own cabinet?chukkaphob
- Are these the same women who were totally OK with Clinton's multiple extramarital affairs? (actions, not words)chukkaphob
- it wasn't organized by women! LOL. it was organized by George Soros and 1 woman (Hillary)chukkaphob
- Honestly I just got into the country a week ago, seems awfully silly what women are complaining about, they have it easy. No marches in Asian/Muslim regions btwrobotron3k
- Why are there not marches in Asian and Muslim countries? Because women (and men) have to work everyday to survive, they have no time to complain.robotron3k
- they have no idea. I completely agree with you. WTF are their points? "hey, look at us, we are women and like.. well, like we are women! YAY!"vero_vandal
- BTW, what a pointless fucking joke. The next day, Trump pulls an executive order. LMFAO! They should have gone door to door, getting more votes, they didn'tvero_vandal
- well it was hardly a landslide was it lolfadein11
- fact remains: he's the most vilified and despised president in history at the start, and that really pierces his gossamer thin skinmonospaced
- "most vilified" by the media, yes, you're absolutely correct. LOL!chukkaphob
- I don't even care about Trump. Not a supporter. But I'm looking at all this as an independent with fresh unbiased eyes.chukkaphob
- CygnusZero44
His fucking inbred supporters are trying to protect him on these taxes because they KNOW he would not be trying so hard to keep them secret had there not been anything juicy af in there.
There is a VERY good reason why he is hiding them. They would reveal the depths of his corruption, his conflicts of interest, his financial ties to countries who are enemies of the united states. Ill bet there is stuff in there that would get him impeached.
And btw, it tickles me that trumps supporters are so fucking dumb and clueless, that they dont even know trump is a moderate liberal!!! I mean, do these morons even know who they voted for? What a riot. No wonder trump said he loves the uneducated.
- there is zero benefit to him in revealing them. At best we find out he's not a rich as he says, at worst a criminal.Gnash
- Who cares about his taxes? You fucking idiot. We ALL have been paying our share of taxes since the day we started working however many years ago.hobgoblin
- Meanwhile, this fucktard Trump has most likely circumvented paying taxes... ever. How does that not piss you off?hobgoblin
- < "inbred supporters, dumb, clueless" the exact attitude that got Trump elected. couldn't be further from the truth, actually. it's why he'll repeat in 4.vero_vandal
- With a 37% approval rating I highly doubt that dumb ass.hobgoblin
- CygnusZero42
Im not a women, but I am very well aware of how trump see women, as lesser humans, not the equals of men. They are just accessories, so if I were a woman, I would be very concerned about this man being my president.
The only people that dont understand this are trumps notoriously retarded supporters. You cant even find more than like 50 of them that have all their teef.

- Do you think he would be as bad as Bill Clinton now that he's in office?robotron3k
- OMG STFU about Clinton already. It's been 16 fucking years.hobgoblin
- and there we go again - Trumptard blaming ancient history.fadein11
- I seriously don't get it. For as long as I can remember the name "Trump" has been negative. Every times he's ever been in the news it's been for something neathobgoblin
- negative. He's being sued. He's suing someone. He's going through a divorce. Rape charges. Bankruptcy.hobgoblin
- In every movie he's a parody of himself. The butt of every joke. A punchline. A smug fuck everyone loved to take shots at because he was a pile of shit.hobgoblin
- Now you're sitting here putting him on a pedestal wondering "will he be as bad as Bill?" give me a fucking break.hobgoblin
- With a 37% approval rating I highly doubt that dumb ass.hobgoblin

You guys think his tax returns will eventually leak? that has to be a huge story for the newspaper that manages to get those. Award winning stuff.
- is it something what can be leaked? i mean can you create that document without processing raw data?sted
- and that data you have to get form the irs?sted
- Even if they were bad, nobody would believe. MSM cried wolf too many times.robotron3k
- Even if they leak Trump and team will go on an all out blitz calling it fake news. It would almost certainly be the end of whichever news outlet releases it.hobgoblin
- What's the over-under on when Trump's 'official" inauguration photo comes out that's been photoshopped to show 10x more people.hobgoblin
- And when it does the In Trump We Trust idiots will lap it up like semen dripping from Trumps anus.hobgoblin
- @sted - hack of the IRS would solve that issue.fadein11
- fuck, if the "MEDIA" were doing their job, they would have dug into Hillary's issues and they conveniently ignore it. Thank WIKILEAKS!!! WOO HOOvero_vandal
- People keep forgetting Trump has a less than 40% approval. Most Americans don't support him and would side with reporters if he tried that.yuekit
- ^ doesn't mean it's that way based upon individual issues. no one every states that.vero_vandal

Trump just pulled the US out of TPP.
no doubt the Chinese are delighted.
- maybe he's going to use his new missile system to retain US control or legitimacy in Asia?lowimpakt
- yepvero_vandal
- TPP?mugwart
- A lot of other countries are happy the TPP is gone. It extended IP protections to other countries, and gave corporations the right to sue countries. It was evilBuddhaHat

The fact that he refuses to release them even now, when he has nothing to lose politically and we are years from the next campaign, tells you there is something in there that the public should know.
It also sets a very bad precedent because now all future candidates can simply say "Trump didn't release taxes" and we will never find out about conflicts of interests.
- a key issue is he said he would and he didn't. he is a liar and his worshipers are being put in a position of defending his lies on his behalf.lowimpakt
- dbloc3
- great!oey
- there already is a wall / fence, it's just going to be extended. LOLvero_vandal
- Extended how exactly? Higher? Longer? Wider? How much will that cost exactly? And how does one go from "We're going to build a wall!" tohobgoblin
- "We're going to put up some taller orange safety fence!!!" Cause I guess that doesn't rally the lowercase kkk as much as "Kick the Mexicans out" doeshobgoblin
- "On the fence -- it's not a fence. It's a wall," - TrumpR_Kercz
- there is no wall, certainly not like the one his gullible voters heard him describemonospaced

On taxes, answers (& repeated questions) are same from campaign: POTUS is under audit and will not release until that is completed. #nonews
- yesvero_vandal
- is the IRS under his jurisdiction? Can he fuck shit up there if he doesn't like the results? Make people lose their jobs, strong arm them etc like he's trying_niko
- erm alas not - it was clearly stated at weekend that he would not be releasing taxes. Now today he is after audit. Expect a lot of U-turns moving forward.fadein11
- ...to do with the CIA, the Press and anyone else that gets in his way?_niko
- do you mean "strong arm" techniques, like the ones used by Barrack Obama?vero_vandal
- less about the tweet and more about how crypt keeper and kellyanne were separated at birthBonSeff
