I want a Trump presidency, because to hell with your feelings.
I don’t particularly like Trump, but I hate his enemies far more. Sometimes the enemy of my enemies is my friend.


I suppose contempt and malice are pretty weak reasons for wanting Donald Trump to be the next president of the United States, but they’re overwhelmingly satisfying to contemplate. I’ve found that if you announce support for the brash businessman, you instantly find yourself outside polite company and disinvited from all your liberal friends dinner parties. Oh well, it could be worth it. If he wins, just think of all the lurid, annoying, disgusting people it would annoy…
Progressive lecturers and feminists would both suffer a stroke, and I can’t think of two groups more deserving. For years they’ve run rampant on college campuses causing nothing but chaos — installing trigger warnings, safe-spaces and perhaps the worst of all, feminist therapy. They’ve destroyed gender relations, pathologized boyish behaviour (so that millions are now prescribed powerful mood stabilisers like Ritalin simply for being born male) and downgraded educational standards so students come out dumber than they went in.
If you’re still scratching your head as to how The Donald has become so popular, it’s precisely because spoiled imbeciles like this (‘lib-tards’ as I prefer to call them) have had their way for so long that a hellish rebellion was bound to happen.
Western society has devolved from a confident dignity based culture into a babyish victimhood culture, overseen by crazed feminists and paternal left-wing governments who’ve stripped any sense of self-reliance from it’s citizens. Identity politics has effectively replaced legitimate thought in both academia and public discourse. As I see it, a Trump presidency is a means to an end to all this stupidity. Culture has always been dictated from the top down, and under Trump, the aggrievement industry which now permeates every aspect of our lives would collapse and we’d likely see a cultural upheaval not seen since the swinging 60’s.
But perhaps more immediately, I can’t wait to see the look on their faces. Can you imagine the mood at The Atlantic or Huffington Post or even The Guardian on the day he’s inaugurated? Trump could build his wall on the Mexican border with all the bricks they’d shit. And what about CNN? There’d be a markedly different mood this election than the one we witnessed in 08, when studio windows were awash with ejaculate and viewers were subjected to a relentless Obamathon, utterly devoid of anything resembling impartiality. This time around they’ll be grim-faced with incredulity and revulsion. It will be so sweet.
Oh and also — think of all the talentless actors and pop stars and how royally pissed off they’ll be. It’s almost impossible not to be a progressive in hollywood today, being stuffed with paunchy radicals who sport gay-pride ribbons and every variation of herpes. Emma Watson will have to return from her year in feminist exile to denounce Trump at another summit for entitled millionaires. Benedict Cumberbitch will deliver yet another senile rambling in the middle of Hamlet’s third soliloquy, probably urged on by comedic morons like Stephen Fry (who’s become the guy stupid people think is an intelligent person) and Lewis CK (ok, Lewis is pretty funny but he’s ginger, and let’s face it, they’re a dying amphibian species with clammy hands and no souls).
There’s even chatter amongst the complaining-class of hordes of anti-trumpers moving to Cape Breton; also known as the Island for “Trump Refugees”. People are so traumatised by the prospect of a Trump presidency they’re willing to flee the country. I’ve always pondered the best way to get rid of lefties that didn’t require the use of force, but it seems if Trump gets in they’ll f-off by themselves.
They’re already pretty upset and there’s still six months to go. That means they’re scared. I would be too. If Trump takes on Hillary I’d say he’s a shoo-in. What’s Hillary going to do? Accuse him of sexism? The woman married to a serial women abuser who she herself abetted? The woman who has a list of scandals so long it makes the Chinese phone book look like a postcard? The woman who will likely be indicted before the election?
Please.
The reason why America is in the economic and cultural malaise it’s in is because of the gullibility of the general voter. People by large don’t vote rationally but tribally. If your friends vote democrat then guess what, you do too. And if your friends don’t sway you, then greed and envy will. Why do you think Sanders is so popular? “Free” education and “free” healthcare sounds great to a selfish and economically ignorant population who are too slow to know where the money’s coming from. Here’s a hint: who do you think is going to be paying off the ever growing national debt?
Americans voted for Obama last time around because he’s likeable, and look where that got you. Race relations have been destroyed, he’s single handedly doubled (yes, I said doubled) the national debt, stripping america of it’s AAA credit rating (and don’t tell me that’s because he was “fixing W’s mess”. If you’re in financial strife then you make recompenses, not increase spending like Obama did). Fewer Americans work today than in April 2000, even though the population has grown by 31 million. He’s sold the future of the next generation to pay for policies like Obamacare and free internet for a dependant class that’s kept him in office.
Screw “likeable”. Likeable doesn’t work. I want a president that realises spending money is the problem, not the solution. You can’t squeeze the productive sector of the economy and expand the non-productive sector and expect good results. You can’t spend your way out of recession or borrow your way out of debt. I want a president that gets shit done in a cost effective way. If that means an asshole like Trump, then so be it.
But these are just practicalities. The reality is that this is first election in yonks that isn’t being fought along ideological lines or even over policy. Trump couldn’t espouse a coherent or consistent position if his life depended on it. I’m quite sure Trump’s never picked up a bible before this election, he has no clue what a nuclear triad is, and just last week he made a complete soup of his position on abortion.
But ultimately, none of this matters, because this election is being fought on cultural grounds. On one side are the entitled, lefty authoritarian cry bullies who bitch about “sexism”, “institutional racism” and “patriarchy”; demanding compensation for any and all grievances, and on the other are libertarians who demand the right to think and say whatever they like — to hell with who’s offended.
As I see it, Trump is both a necessary corrective to this pathological culture of political correctness and also a murder weapon for the establishment. Democrats have spent millions in ad campaigns trying to derail him, and even his own party is scurrying to find a viable alternative. They’re scared shitless, because they can see what we all see — that he’s single handedly the greatest threat to all the fraudulent elite’s who rely on the status quo that keeps them in power.
But the thing that excites me most about having Trump in the oval office is a sudden death to the culture of hypersensitivity and “feels”. He’s already changed the tone of the national debate, throwing open the narrow overton window of acceptable thought and speech. Talking about immigration was all but impossible before he began his campaign. Now it’s at the top of the political agenda. Imagine what he’ll do with a full term in office.
Ben Shapiro pointed out that there’s a difference between being politically incorrect and just being a jackass. I actually agree, but that’s besides the point. The reason why Ben needs police protection at every venue he visits is because of the culture progressivism has created — a culture a “jackass” like Trump would eradicate by offering legitimacy to the other side.
Hardline leftists, feminists, black lives matter activists, HuffPost “journalists” (if you can even call them that), marxist philosophers, lefty professors and all the other horrible people in society that have dragged everyone down for decades will spontaneously combust in a fit of progressive agony. It will be glorious. Perhaps from the wreckage they’ll scurry off and do something useful with their miserable lives.
I can’t count how many times I’ve been asked by friends why the hell I’m supporting Trump. Some have even suggested it’s related to a recent surgery I’ve undergone on my head.
I can tell you now my reasons for supporting him are perfectly rational — to annoy all the boring conformists I hate most. To utterly enrage all the arrogant pricks who don’t believe it’s even legitimate to have a view which differs from their own. In fact the more I think of it, the more I think a Trump presidency isn’t only desirable, but absolutely crucial.
Ultimately I want a president Trump… because to hell with your feelings.
