Yesterday Mr Luxon launched National’s “electrification” climate change policy. The media presented a 24 minute video wherein he described his plans to legislate to make resource consents for renewable energy projects easier to get. He also signaled his intention to go full tilt if elected encouraging wind and solar generators and the electrification of New […]
Apologies for the long gaps between posts. I feel there is enough being said out there these days, and that we’re actually in danger of being drowned by so much random opinion. My motivation to write has therefore suffered. Never mind, here’s something I feel needs to be said because although I read so much […]
Whereas the Labour party bears the greatest part of the blame for New Zealand’s decline into a lawless degenerate backwater, it is an unwelcome truth that the National Party has over time made its own generous contribution to this unfortunate outcome. Citizens are aware of the failure of the Nats. Even with such a disastrous […]

Very good.
Trump is showing them all up and it is enjoyable to watch.
I don’t think however he represents “change” just as Obomber didn’t. If he truly did, then the MSM would ignore home like they ignored Ron Paul. Trump craves publicity and they give it to him.
Farrar was actually correct when he noted that Trump changes his tune like the wind.

Yes, but it appears Trump has formed an alliance with a few Constitutionalists who are giving him the direction he lacked.

I am very reluctant to allow myself to become a supporter as I would expect to be highly disappointed at some later stage, but so far he’s going OK.
Under Cruz’s guidance he could learn a lot. Its a long way to go of course but it looks to me as there may be a move to form a Trump Cruz alliance with Trump as President and Cruz as VP.
That’s a long shot and I would actually far prefer if Cruz could get up on his own.

Good thing is Trump is calling out some of what needs to be, and providing a rallying cry for those who are fed up with the status quo. If nothing else he may mobilise those who previously felt overwhelmed by the critical theorists who lately have been so successful at silencing those who have had the audacity to voice racist, feminist or bigoted thoughts.

A good read on Trump, and detailing why his history makes it difficult to accept him as any kind of Conservative today.
