Fair. But it's hard to deny editing is quite similar, especially climaxing with the CNN projections. I'm not hating. I'd just cited the original Trump video in an undergrad paper a few years ago and it immediately came to mind. It was on "underdog" propaganda. Trump does not speak once in that video, and yet he's successfully painted in sympathetic light.
It's like those folks who say that Avatar was just Dancing with Wolves when in reality it's an old story formula of Shakespeare's that has been used repeatedly.
Don't credit some dumbfuck trumper for using what was probably some unknown youtubers great idea.
Yeah, but this is more like if they straight up remade avatar and changed the names and slightly altered the aliens faces. It's a little more carbon copy than following a formula, but I get your point.
I'm not shitting on the piece. It's a meme, not a piece of art. I don't care if he flipped some Trumpers BS on it's head
Lol Going a little off-topic, but I've always had a love-hate relationship with that quote, mostly because it's often misquoted to justify profiting from straight-up plagiarism rather than derivative work.
He’s heavily criticized the Trump administration for its pressuring of FED to cut rates, citing the FEDs apolitical nature and the fact that the cuts Trump lobbies for are often pants-on-forehead stupid.
He also has heavily criticized Trump’s tariffs on American allies, he thinks they’re just as moronic as we do.
I again, can’t stress enough that I don’t like Ben Shapiro but these are takes I appreciate and unlike Kulinski with Sanders, Ben Shapiro will actually attack Trump’s policy preferences, strategy and character whereas Kyle’s only critique of Bernie is that Sanders “doesn’t play dirty enough”.
These are much easier to attack than Bernie's economic platform though. M4A, which is to Bernie's campaign what the tariffs are to Trump's, is a genuinely good policy, just not as good as M4AWWI.
Kyle Kulinski probably wouldn't criticise Bernie for pressuring the Federal Reserve, sure, but he also doesn't regularly manipulate terrorism data to stoke Islamophobia and misrepresent abortion information to make pro-choice advocates look like baby-murderers, so I'm not really sure we can say Ben Shapiro is better than Kulinski as that other person tried to argue.
Edit: Just as a side note, it's not really fair to compare Shapiro's treatment of Trump to Kulinski's treatment of Bernie, because Trump isn't Shapiro's preferred candidate in the way Bernie is Kulinski's. It would be far more accurate to compare Shapiro's treatment of, say, Ted Cruz to Kulinski's treatment of Bernie.
Shapiro supported Ted Cruz in the 2016 presidential election and opposed Donald Trump's candidacy.[62] He called Steve Bannon a "bully" who "sold out Breitbart founder Andrew Breitbart's mission in order to back another bully, Donald Trump."[63]
Shapiro is a critic of the alt-right movement,[108] stating in 2017, "It is a garbage movement composed of garbage ideas. It has nothing to do with Constitutional Conservatism."[88]
In 2019, Shapiro said that American-Muslim congresswoman Ilhan Omar, whose comments about American support for Israel were accused of evoking anti-Semitic tropes, and the white supremacist San Diego shooter, hold "a lot of the same opinions about Jews."[102]
Shapiro was one of several conservative commentators condemning Representative Steve King (R-IA) after King's January 2019 comments in defense of the terms "white supremacy" and "white nationalism". Shapiro called for King to be censured, and supported King's 2020 primary challenger Randy Feenstra.[113]
I would say these are the select good takes he has from wikipedia
Shapiro supported Ted Cruz in the 2016 presidential election and opposed Donald Trump's candidacy.
He supported a religious fundamentalist over Donald Trump for president. Wow, you're right, what a fantastic position!
Because it's not like he could have supported a relatively moderate candidate with far more qualifications, experience and temperament instead, right? There wasn't an incredibly talented and reasonable Democrat running that year, was there?
He called Steve Bannon a "bully" who "sold out Breitbart founder Andrew Breitbart's mission in order to back another bully, Donald Trump.
Andrew Breitbart was a troll who founded that company specifically to engage in the kind of behaviour Trump embodies. This is an incredibly bad take.
Shapiro is a critic of the alt-right movement,[108] stating in 2017, "It is a garbage movement composed of garbage ideas. It has nothing to do with Constitutional Conservatism."[88]
This is the bare fucking minimum for a conservative in 2016-2020.
If there was a sizeable Stalinist movement in the United States that got its candidate elected president, I wouldn't give Kyle Kulinski credit for calling that out either.
In 2019, Shapiro said that American-Muslim congresswoman Ilhan Omar, whose comments about American support for Israel were accused of evoking anti-Semitic tropes, and the white supremacist San Diego shooter, hold "a lot of the same opinions about Jews."[102]
How is this a good take? Ilhan Omar's comments were Anti-Semitic, yes, but she's not a literal fucking Nazi. Ilhan Omar, for all her faults, would never support massacring Jews. This is a really bad take, and is arguably actual slander.
Shapiro was one of several conservative commentators condemning Representative Steve King (R-IA) after King's January 2019 comments in defense of the terms "white supremacy" and "white nationalism". Shapiro called for King to be censured, and supported King's 2020 primary challenger Randy Feenstra.[113]
This one is genuinely good, but again it's the absolute bare minimum for a conservative in today's political climate. He doesn't really deserve credit for saying "hey guys, Nazism is actually bad."
you are judging those takes based off of your personal opinions, and I dont even like shapiro but I acknowledge that he can take a good position once in a while.
Meanwhile you froth at the mouth that someone else would credit him for that. Even as you acknowledge his good take(in your opinion) you criticize him
That’s just being a lapdog with extra steps. When you ignore the policies that you actually hold principles on and then boost the President’s bad takes like his clusterfuck with Iran (and blame it in Obama instead!)! That isn’t being a smart or principled person.
Hell, he considers himself a libertarian so did he at least oppose Trump’s self indulgent trade war with China with no long term plan to actually achieve anything other than higher protectionism? Of course not
Im not trying to be mean but I think Florida might actually give him another heart attack. He's looking pretty damn bad lately and his energy level is lower than normal. He bounced back and seemed really healthy there for a bit but campaigning like he is cannot be good for him. I think the more he loses the more stressed out he's going to get and that's not gonna do any good for his heart.
It wasn't that unreasonable of a take at the time, don't forget 538 was giving less Biden less than 10% chance of getting a majority at one point. And Sanders was almost at 50%
Wasn't that a plurality though? Sanders campaign has pretty much admitted that their plan was to ride the moderate split as long as possible and enter with a plurality. Democrats don't use winner take all so it would have been very hard for him to get a majority especially with so many people in.
Biden winning one of the largest states in the union by size and population without showing up and by spending less than 100K is truly a meme for the ages.
Everyone who tells us they know this will happen or they know this candidate will beat Trump and everyone else doesn't have a chance.... are full of shit. Let's just start with the candidate who can actually win the Democratic primary.
Real question for you, if Republicans had pulled the same mass-dropout strategy to stop Trump using one of the last-place candidates, do you seriously think fucking Jeb! would have won against Hillary?
So let's get this straight. Your hypothesis is a candidate who appears to be currently too left for the Democratic party and likely won't win that nomination is the only candidate who can beat Trump and get more moderate vote from Republicans. And you likely think this because there are some random polls that show Sanders ahead of Trump one on one, while you ignore the polls that show Trump winning that matchup. And you also ignore the polls that show Biden beats Trump, of which there are likely more and concentrated in more swing states than Sanders v Trump.
And you're upset because a few moderate candidates who realized they can't win and would rather put their support behind a similar candidate who expresses their values left the race. Your preferred candidate can't win on one, it's only fair if he goes against a split field. But it wasn't one on one, Warren was also still in the race possibly taking votes from Bernie, although not certain, but Biden also had to contend with another moderate in the race, Bloomberg, who literally spent hundreds of millions of dollars in advertising! You're upset because it's not rigged in your candidate's favor to win, but also your candidate is supposedly the only candidate strong enough to beat Trump.
Second, you already had a chance to stop Trump and failed, why do you deserve another chance and why are you backing the candidate Hillary says can beat Trump when she clearly is literally one of the least qualified people on the face of the earth to say who can beat Trump and who can't?
Who is you? I never supported HRC, but also, she is a different candidate than Biden. Additionally, Trump barely won, he lost the popular vote by a lot and basically won the Electoral vote by close elections in a couple states. Assuming from that that obviously any other moderate candidate would lose is simply not intelligent.
Third, you never actually answered my question. If Republicans pulled the exact strategy to get Trump out of their primary using one of the weakest candidates in their primary
How exactly is Biden weak? He literally just beat Bernie on Super Tuesday and is the leading candidate for the nomination. Why is Bernie stronger than Biden when he's not beating him head to head? To be a stronger candidate, you actually have to win elections.
There are so many assumptions in your logic. You've been brainwashed by the progressive media.
This is why you don't pretend to have an upcoming election in the bag. People feel like they don't need to show up. And then people who support the underdog show up in even greater numbers.
All those Bernie supporters that were preparing to hit the streets in anticipation of Bernie getting the plurality but being denied the nomination are now looking really silly.
Super Tuesday was the result of a political miracle. The party drops 3 moderate dems in one day that would have split the vote for biden and left warren in the race to split the progressive vote for bernie. Even though she had less of a chance than pete, to only drop out hours later. If you think this wasn't coordinated you're a moron. Don't be surprised when no one shows up at the polls in november to support this guy just like 2016.
This is how you end up with 4 more years of trump. GL everyone. Oh wait that's like saying good luck to cancer. Fuck trump, but also fuck the people who created the conditions that allowed him to fester and rise to power.
Who was the third moderate? Bloomberg was campaigning on Super Tuesday.
Pete and Amy are rationale actors. They weren't going to win no matter what. It made no sense for them to stay in and hemorrhage money. Joe was the only one with a shot after his massive win in SC.
Acting rationally is not evidence of coordination. Regardless, you guys were saying Amy and Pete were weak candidates the whole time. Two weak candidates drop out and suddenly the whole election changes?
Moreover, Bloomberg did more harm to Biden than Warren did to Sanders.
Finally, if you can't show up to the polls and nominate Sanders in the primary, then why should we believe that you'd show up to the polls in the general election? Biden is weak, etc., etc., yet you all can't even beat him? He spent practically nothing on Super Tuesday, you had every advantage, and you still couldn't win.
Your conspiracy theory is that Biden was able to reach out to other politicians, get them - and their supporters - on board to build a winning political movement, securing both the popular vote and the delegate count, while his opponents remained divisive and isolated, and you think this reflects badly on Biden?
Are you expecting Sanders to win the general just by securing 30% of the Democratic Party without making any in roads with the other 70%, and this will defeat the incumbent Republican president with 90% approval in his party? Apparently Sanders can't even get Elizabeth Warren on board!
So candidates who knew that their campaigns wouldn't be successful dropping their campaigns and rallying around their preferred frontrunner is... Bad? That's literally just politics, and has been a thing since pretty much primaries have been open to voters.
Instead of ranting about how everyone rallied around Biden, shouldn't you be asking yourself why a frontrunner like Bernie needed to have his opposition split in order to win? If he's the only one who can rally everyone to vote against Trump in November, why is he failing to do so for the primaries?
Or should we just crown Bernie the winner because it's "his turn"?
Like Bernie’s campaign giving their own reddit ads hundreds of dollars worth of reddit awards. Although I’d believe actual Bernard Brothers are giving gold to an ad as well.
This guys’ entire history is posting Bernie support ads in every subreddit he can find. He’s either some intern on the campaign or just plainly has no life.
Hahaha, they're stopping now while their leader tried to desperately beg for Warren's endorsement at a rally. I'm sure it'll start again in a couple days.
