The Daily Stormer is available only on the Dark Web. No regular hosting provider in the world would accept their filth. They should know about white supremacy.

It's clear that Trump's re-election strategy will be hate, fomenting fear, and racism.

A particularly vile lie. Nobody is or has been making money from abortion. The money that was transferred was recompense for expenses. But nobody's doing even that any more so as to remove the rationale for that lie.
But Evangelical Christianity has abandoned the Ten Commandments and Jesus.

To most people a hammer and sickle represents the USSR, not Trump.
The Trump administration has officially argued there is no such thing as congressional oversight. They have often threatened to ignore the Judicial branch, and the reason they are losing in court at unprecedented rates is not activist judges but rather the many blatantly illegal policies they've tried to implement (e.g. the new asylum policy:even the Border Patrol is expecting it to be knocked down; Acting Head Of Customs And Border Protection Says New Asylum Rule In 'Pilot' Phase : NPR) and the many legal requirements for implementing policies. Even when Republicans held the House and Senate he's ruled by executive order. I agree Trump is not trying to be a socialist or communist. There are other forms of tyranny. No matter what you label it Trump’s destroying our entire system. Maybe oligarchy is the wrong word. We're looking at a new Gilded Age. Rich old white men and their corporations in charge and the proles, armed or not, don't get uppity. Have you noticed that "less regulation" benefits business and harms the country (hey, who needs breathable air or drinlawater, amirite?) And that "more free marketing" (like tarrifs?) benefits business and may or may not benefit the country. There are lots of areas where free marketing doesn't work (health care) and lots of places the administration is anti-free-market (social networking companies, coal subsidies, farmer subsidies to make up for trade war losses ).

What's your source for that - looks like fake news to me. I suspect that was twisted and distorted out of a comment of his that a congress focused on NOTHING but bringing down a president needs to have its "congressional oversight" reigned in from time to time. On checking, I find that I did overstate the case. The official argument is that there's no Congressional oversight of the President. On the subject of the requirment that there must be some legislative purpose for a subpoena. 5 Takeaways From Oral Arguments On House Subpoena Of Trump’s Accountant - TPM – Talking Points Memo
quote: Here is the Wikipedia chart that shows all presidential use of the executive order.
Yes, it's in line with other's use. But we need to compare his executive orders to his (essentially nil) legislative achievements.
We have most all Democrat presidential candidates promising to give free health care to illegal immigrants, we have a Muslim, America hating congresswoman with a turbine wrapped around her head that the news media adores, every Democrat presidential candidate agrees that we're going to have to make serious changes in our lifestyles to combat climate change, and you're worried about Trump destroying our entire system?
Yes. No congresswoman hates America or is antisemitic. Climate change is going to fuck us good because Republicans refuse to do anything.
When the public voluntarily buys the products and services that business provides, it doesn't harm the country.
Most of the rollbacks lessen worker safety and antipollution protections. Dead people don't purchase.
We HAVE breathable air and drinkable water. But we also have special interests who have a financial stake in selling fear about those things.
Yes. Although the air has gotten a little worse in the past two years. Wait until the effect of deregulation really kicks in.
There are liberal free market economists. Trump won on many issues, and one of them was his claim that foreign countries have been taking advantage of the U.S. for too long. Even if his new ideas on tariffs have short term challenges, I for one am willing to see how his ideas work, compared to the ideas of the former swamp dwellers who have spent us $22 trillion in debt.
So you didn't bother to read the article or research the author. Trump's proposed 2020 budget increases the debt by five trillion. Between his inauguration and the debt passing 22 trillion he added 2.1 trillion. Less than Obama over a comparable time, but Obama was dealing with a crashed economy and Trump was dealing with a reasonably healthy economy. The tax cuts for the rich didn't trickle down, as usual, and are adding significantly to the debt. Trump promised to eliminate the debt in eight years. Obviously he's well on his way to that goal. Trump is abysmally ignorant of foreign policy and global economics. Nobody'd taking any significant advantage of us economically. So far his only effect has been alienating our allies.
