    I had posted yesterday a comment on the Breitbart Bannon who is setting up shop now in Europe to drive a new White Nationalist Movement in France and Germany.......

    Team Trump tells me Bannon did NOT reach out to Marion Le Pen, a leader in a French conservative party, or anyone connected to her/her uncle

    BUT WAIT she was responding to Bannon’s first contacting her…..

    Je réponds oui à l'invitation de Stephen Bannon, directeur de la campagne #Trump, à travailler ensemble.

    From Reuters though the opposite of what the Trump campaign again says…..
    Riding the Trump wave, Breitbart is expanding its U.S. operations and launching sites in Germany and France

    Trump vows to immediately deport up to three million immigrants: interview - AFP
    And Trump “ain’t a racist”??????
    BUT he pleaded to be a unifier….not a divider…..

    Neo Nazi website The Daily Stormer published a twitter list of 50 Clinton supporters and said they should be harassed to commit suicide…….the Neo Nazi’s now feel vindicated by Trumps rhetoric and they feel they are now accepted in the US mainstream just as the Alt Right…..

    Trump says 'certain areas' of border wall with Mexico could be fence

    BUT WAIT Trump kept talking about concrete walls not a “fence” which is sure not going to stop anyone these days….what will his supporters think now?????

    The @nytimes states today that DJT believes "more countries should acquire nuclear weapons." How dishonest are they. I never said this!

    BUT WAIT…he did in fact state this

    Yes you literally did. Even Breitbart reported it

    The man cannot even what he said anymore…..beginning of Alzheimer’s….?????

    THE question of actually “legitimacy” rises it’s head one more time……
    Clinton will finish with widest popular vote margin among Electoral College losers, excluding years (1824, 1876) where not all states voted.

    Votes received by GOP presidential candidate in general election:
    2008 - 59.9 million
    2012 - 60.9 million
    2016 - 61.2 million (est.)

    Votes received by Democratic presidential candidate in general election:
    2008 - 69.4 million
    2012 - 65.9 million
    2016 - 63.4 million (est.)

    Kellyanne Conway says on @FoxNewsSunday Harry Reid's comments are "beyond the pale," advises him to be careful in "legal sense"

    (Reid called Trump a "sexual predator")

    BUT WAIT…the discovery process would be painful for a Trump lawyer…..

    For reasons too obvious to require explanation, it's a huge free speech threat for a President to threaten critics with legal action.

    `Now there is a hashtag #Trumpriot and Russian Propaganda Agency RT tries to stoke the fire

    Russia's so protective of its Trump. RT loves showing US protests, but when against Putin or Trump, suddenly they're illegit & Soros funded

    Anonymous accuse Assange of corrupting @wikileaks, conspiring w/ #Russia to promote #Trump, hide certain SyriaFiles

    Interestingly it is Anonymous calling out Wikileaks as proRussian controlled…

    I know Slapout and 60M others that voted for Trumpkin might not like the following but if we take the SWC posted comments of Winston Churchill to heart....HERE goes a rant that will definitely not be liked by many who voted for Trumpkin.....

    IF we look at just how populism has unfolded over the last say SIX years across the globe and especially in the US....we need urgently to honesty be willing to admit that those that voted for Trumpkin have no earthly idea what ethno nationalism is...no earthly idea what fascism is...no earthly idea that the Us still is entrenched in racism directed at blacks and minorities and no earthly idea many do not support women's rights and her reproductive rights...AND those civil liberties and human rights..WELL not for non Whites is the answer....

    AND for the US those that voted for Trumpkin failed to distance themselves from the KKK with their media outlet The Klansman and the US Neo Nazi Party and their media outlet The Stormer and the countless media outlets on the neo right and extreme right ie radio stations that drove home the messaging/narrative of the reemerging "alt Right"..."and white supremacy"....

    BY not distancing themselves from this element within the Trumpkin voting mass...they actually inadvertently support ethno nationalism BUT what might be far more crazy is DO they in the end "identify" with those messages from the extreme right????

    A history lesson for those that did not have much to do with Europe theses days.....

    Hungary under Orban started out as a relatively strong supporter of a pro EU Party and who ever so gently moved that pro EU party to the far right ie "populist party" WHERE now he is formally known for his tight Putin connections and his "populist party" is now currently more and more anti EU....ALL the while still taking EU financial handouts to the tune of millions of Euros....WE are seeing the same exact maneuvering in France with Le Pen and in Poland..while at least Poland remains tightly committed to the EU and NATO

    JUMP forward to the US...it is the general consensus that no independent can win in US elections...Trump was a and is still a closeted racist hidden in the garments of a "populist".....knowing he could not get elected as "independent populist" he needed a "populist party"...EXACTLY as Oran needed one before he shifted.....

    SO Trumpkin started running in the RP primaries and if one really followed him he countless times stated he was not really a "true Republican" and played then the media and his constant racist..sexist and bigoted statements to a vaster audience than he has ever had....AND the messaging resonated....

    THEN after winning the primaries he stood "legally alone" as the winner of the RP and then became the RP candidate for President WITHIN the RP.....

    NOW kicks in the current Hungarian Orban model....Trumpkin never changed his rhetoric of racism...sexism. and bigotry......

    NOW suddenly the old line political RP is now the new populist party led by a populist still using the same racist...sexist and bigoted messaging that he started with....

    BUT now the so called old line RP is really no longer the true RP BUT the WHITE NATIONALIST PARTY.....

    BTW..posted here was a Bannon tweet indicating he was moving his operations from Breitbart to Germany and France....THEN he was pushed back and told to shut up....in that SWJ posted tweet EVEN Bannon wrote the words...to create a WHITE NATIONAL PARTY....UNQUOTE...think that term through very carefully ...

    Savor the words "white supremacist"

    With the addition to the Trumpkin staff of Bannon who is a declared ultra nationalist...basically a "white supremacist" AND anti Semitic all strategic Trumpkin messaging ie propaganda will be coming through him and directed by him....for the next FOUR years...

    AND those that do not believe it possible to have fascism with a friendly smile get ready for some changes you never expected to see in the US...

    Just some highlights from the the last 18 months to refresh one mind about Trumpkin....and company....


    1. REMEMBER when David Duke KKK leader endorsed Trumpkin..his response...WHO is David Duke...once it was explained to him...DID he push back on The Klansman editor supporting his election..NO he did not.

    2. REMEMBER when he released one of his first anti Semitic ads with the Star of David and he took flak for it...EXPLAINING he though the Star of David was a sheriffs badge....come one guys....

    3. REMEMBER when Trumpkin repeatedly six months ago retweeted anti Semitic tweets from the Klan and the "alt Right" ..his statement..he did not know they wer anti Semitic....come on guys

    4. REMEMBER his last campaign ad...truly anti Semitic and he did not even comment when called out on it...

    5. REMEMBER when his son Eric retweeted countless "alt Right" Tweets and he did not repute them when he was called out....

    6. REMEMBER all is his rally statements that where blatantly sexist....racist and bigoted....NONE of them ever called back....

    LASTLY an all important point...JUST how long did Trumpkin drive the "birther issue" and lead that movement in a direct fashion...STARTING WHEN?????

    THEN his speech where he stated he was going to be the President of all of us and the great uniter...BUT it took him until yesterday to call out the violence of his supporters against minorities and women....being reported literally from all over the US....AND some of it was posted here and some felt it was the work of a "Clinton organized opposition"....

    AND most of ALL did he call out the Neo Nazi media outlet that listed the names of 50 Clinton supporters..mostly women and stated send emails..tweets...calls to this listed individuals and rive them to suicide....

    NOTICE he did not repudiate "The Stomer" did he?

    With the naming of Bannon...and believe me many Europeans fully understand US politics far better than most Americans...the morning headlines in some of the most influential German newspapers and yes German read a lot of newspapers...."Bannon the ultra nationalist" named to Trumpkin's Staff".....

    "Ultra nationalist" is buzz speak for Nazi....


    The debate over what the Trumpkin FP will and or could be has run it's course we now know with Bannon and the neocons that have drifted back towards the WH ..it will be aggressive to anything other than American..it will be Protectionist and it will be Ethno Nationalist in ideology..
    BESIDES his bromance with Putin and his 300% alignment with Putin's FP tells us were we are going with Russia....

    THIS confirms what I have been posting on SWJ since Brexit and now Trumpkin...immigration and the effects of globalization are just smokescreen for a populist/facist trend .....

    Highly recommended article by @epkaufm. Fear of change most important reason for #Trump and #Brexit, not economy.

    ASK anyone who voted for Trumpkin just what is information warfare inside the Russian non linear warfare and you will get a totally blank stare coming back to you......and then ..what do you mean comes next?

    Information warfare is the attempt to change an entire societies way of thinking and to accept your narrative as the "truth" and to distrust actual truth/facts....IT is all about Russian propaganda driving on the 6Ds....dismay...dismiss/deflect...distort....distract ALL designed to create doubt and distrust....

    Editorial Opinion: "Lies in the Guise of News in the #Trump Era," via Nicholas Kristof in the @nytimeshttp://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/13/op...-iphone-share#

    MANY Trumpkin voters would point to the sheer volume on Twitter as "proof" of the Trumping popularity and even Trumpkin mentioned the sheer number of followers on Twitter as proof of his message ebing correct...

    BUT did they and Trumpkin ever comment on the proven information coming out of Europe that over 1/3rd of all proTrumpkin tweet were being generated by a Russian company paying young Macedonians to tweet proTrumpkin comments...THAt means on any given day 33% of Trumpkin social media supporters were Russian paid info warriors....

    THINK about it?????

    Apologies for the delay in completing a review - other commitments will suffice.

    I have edited out a number of photos, most originate from Twitter, plus some posts which cite an un-named source and deleted thirty-eight posts that simply go way beyond the Forum's ToR.

    A reminder Small Wars Forum has this section for:
    Politics In the Rear National will and developments back home for the intervening nations.
    We are not a political discussion board, but after such an apparent seismic event, with the election of President Trump, there was bound to be a reaction and an exchange. The exchange was not a "level playing field". That happens on SWC, but members have expressed concern here and directly via PM.

    I have noted a number of posts on President-elect Trump in other threads, which circumvent this thread being closed. If I have time those posts will be moved here. If more such posts appear, for example in the Syria thread I will delete them.

    Update: Sixty-eight posts moved here from the Syria thread and approx. twenty to other threads soon.
