Propelled by the Trump campaign and a new focus on the 'alt-right,' the Daily St0rmer is now the top hate site in America.

We won, brothers,” Anglin wrote a few hours after Hillary Clinton conceded. “Our Glorious Leader has ascended to God Emperor. Make no mistake about it: we did this. If it were not for us, it wouldn’t have been possible.”

yeah i hate to sound like an a-hole pointing out other a-holes



there seems to be a mystery as to why people would vote for trump or support his policies

first if you observe or understand that most people are willing or conditioned to suspend logic and reason on a partisan basis

then it becomes pretty clear or fairly easy to understand

trump's diplomacy is very abrasive, very direct and very confrontational

it's part of his negotiating style

a lot of people want a nice story

it's easier to tolerate bad policy when it is dressed up in vague language

most politicians would say they're going to reach out to big pharma and implement a long term strategy to reduce prices and improve availability

trump says they're getting away with murder and he's going to do whatever

I seriously wonder what caused his unending need to be the best, greatest, biggest, most whatever to the point that it has completely infiltrated every single thing he does. It is really odd.

 
I imagine he picked up on his father's belief in promoting real estate projects and winning PR battles. My guess is that Trump sees life as a "me vs. the world" conflict and believes that he can wear people down simply by yelling louder, never conceding, always seeking to "win" transactions, etc. He's probably always lived in a bubble that reinforced his mindset of superiority. There's probably also a biochemical element of manic depression, although one of his biographers said that he didn't think Trump suffered the depressive side of that disease. The biographer also said that Trump thrives on chaos, which may mean that the frenetic, chaotic feel of the first weeks of the Trump administration may stay with us for as long as Trump does. 

This obsession of his should have pushed voters away from him in the early primaries. I think a lot of people were so fed up with the mannequin qualities of the establishment candidates (Jeb!) that they were glad to have someone like Trump who loudly called BS on the whole show, and just ignored his endless bragging as a campaign swagger and bombast. 

But I think it's going to accelerate his downfall. The press has already figured out that you can easily bait Trump into over-reacting; now that he's in a position of responsibility, he can't sit back and simply find fault with the actions and words of others. I think the public will eventually just laugh at Trump. It's very hard to succeed politically when voters just see you as an incapable chump (see Jimmy Carter).
