      XPost: or.politics, ca.politics, fl.politics       XPost: rec.aviation.military       From: muratlanne@gmail.com              ".../v]andrak|≡..." wrote in message       news:m55skrF3d1vU2@mid.individual.net...              How is Democrat any different from an anti-Republican party? You can't       own politics being completely reactionary like that. They don't even       know what they are promoting until Republicans "tell them what not to."              ---------------------------------       Many of them haven't matured past rebellious adolescence, as their sullen       and childish behavior during Trump's speech plainly demonstrated.              I write off Trump's antics as how he learned to rule the jungle of NYC real       estate moguls, taken to the similarly competitive world of high political       power.       https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realpolitik       The question is if Trump can play this game at the level of Bismarck or       Talleyrand.              I read in a General's memoirs that some people respond to reason, others       only to threats, and successful leaders learn how to control both. The ones       who most need threatening may be other Generals. Yamamoto was made Japanese       fleet commander in order to live on a battleship where the Army couldn't       assassinate him for opposing their imperialism.              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
