[csziggy]

45. No - Andrew Jackson - The Atlantic has an excellent comparison of the two

Donald Trump and the Legacy of Andrew Jackson

There’s no shortage of parallels between the two populists—but there’s at least one crucial difference.
Steve Inskeep Nov 30, 2016

Steve Bannon, the media executive and soon-to-be White House strategist, has been describing Donald Trump’s victory as just the beginning. “Like [Andrew] Jackson’s populism,” he told the Hollywood Reporter, “we’re going to build an entirely new political movement.”

Newt Gingrich has compared Trump to Jackson for some time. Rudolph Giuliani declared on election night that it was “like Andrew Jackson’s victory. This is the people beating the establishment.” That may seem a comforting comparison, since it locates Donald Trump in the American experience and makes his election seem less of a departure.

Is Trump’s victory really like Jackson’s? On the surface, yes: In 1828, an “outsider” candidate appealed directly to the people against elites he called corrupt. A deeper look at Jackson’s victory complicates the comparison, but still says much about America then and now.

<SNIP>

When Bannon spoke of founding a “new political movement,” though, he was referring to the period immediately afterward. Jackson and his allies created a new organization, the Democratic Party. His opponents were forced to up their own political game by founding a new opposition party, and American politics began growing into the two-party rivalry that we know today. The old, staid political order cracked up.

[montana_hazeleyes]

44. Good one!

[RandySF]

7. Reminds me of another set of historical speeches

But I will be polite and not compare Trump to that figure.

[nolabear]

10. Yeah, he said it had never happened before. I can think of once.

[DesertFlower]

9. he needs reassurance that the idiots who

voted for him still like him. he can't exist without it. as kurt andersen said "he has a hole in his soul".

[nolabear]

11. Who knew he was so pro-worker!

[nolabear]

12. He says every foreign leader is glad he won and respects America now.

[uponit7771]

13. +1, and only the dead brained in that crowed believe that bullshit

[3catwoman3]

18. Bullshit!

The rest of the world thinks we have lost our ever-lovin' minds. And DFT (Donald Fucking Trump) lies as easlily as he breathes.

People around the world were delighted with the election of Barack Obama. No so this time around.

[Arkansas Granny]

14. Get ready for four years of this shit. His ego demands it.

[.99center]

16. Trump's idiocy scares the hell out of me.

"This is our window for action"

I'm sure foreign governments got a kick out of that one.

[nolabear]

17. Jesus, he's attacking the press. Ridiculing Martha Radditz.

I can't stand it.

[uponit7771]

19. DPutin has no class, ridiculing someone like that... a classless person

[nolabear]

20. They're booing their own governor. And he continues to belittle the press.

This is sickening. He's a vulgar buffoon. I'm ashamed.

[uponit7771]

21. How many of the M$M will wall to wall this gloating?! How many of those cowardly punk ass's allow

My soul says fight this fucker with every ounce I got

[nolabear]

38. I saw one Nazi salute. They stayed on the guy a long time.

[MichMary]

40. Oh, dear Dog!

Why am I not surprised???

[Va Lefty]

27. This is the sound of America going down the drain

[mtnsnake]

29. Isn't there any law that says a clinically insane sociopath cannot be president?

How much more proof do we need to realize that this guy has extremely serious mental problems? I mean, besides being a world class asshole, he is fucking delusional. How can he be allowed to step foot in the White House, let alone run it?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

31. I fear that he's hoping for something like this:

[uponit7771]

32. He mentions "inner cities" and crowd goes silent... fuck him

[Marthe48]

33. He's a failure

He lost the popular vote by at least 2.5 million. The way he's running his acquisition, he will not only not win a single one of those 65,228,264 (and counting) people who voted against him, he will lose people who stupidly voted for him, for whatever reason they voted. Because he's an inept bungler with no persuasive skills, no finesse, and no class. A true winner would do the utmost to prove his personal charisma. Trump is a loser, because he won't even try.

[C_U_L8R]

34. Unbearable

Trump is just such a jackass.
Garishly self-felating in front of the world.
Blecccch !!! Embarrassing.

[nolabear]

35. Oh, the promises. The unkeepable promises.

Fuuuuuuuuuck.

[NoGoodNamesLeft]

36. I refuse to watch his orange ass

The second he goes on TV I change the channel. That's what' I'll do until the jack ass is impeached. He's disgusting on every level.

[nolabear]

37. You know he might just speak for hours. He's already repeating himself.

[otohara]

39. Which One of Our Cable Channels

is carrying the whole thing?

[nolabear]

42. Oh I expect all the cable news stations are. Of course they're all dishonest, right?

How dare they show him saying what he's saying?

[otohara]

43. Pretty Much

they created him - and he's a big ratings hit so it's more about money than what words are coming out of his mouth. It's not like they won't repeat portions over and over for the next 24 hours or so.

I will not torture myself again like I did through the Bush years dealing with the media who helped lie us into a war.

[Orsino]

46. Tells us what he's in it for.

Seems to be addicted to the reassurance cheering crowds provide.
