GULLIVER’S TRAVAILS

U.S. president-elect Donald Trump has vowed to “make America great again.” Just what does “greatness” look like? How will we know if he succeeds or fails?

On this, Thanksgiving Day in America, it is certainly a “great” day to reflect on just what it is that makes America “great.”

All nations have the potential to be “great” nations, but most unfortunately choose to become like the Lilliputians in the classic Gulliver’s Travels, dedicated to bringing greatness down to their level. Has the United States become a victim of this trend, or will it always rise above the Lilliputians?

Joining us for a second round of post-U.S. election discussion on today’s Just Right are Western University’s Associate Professor of Political Science Salim Mansur, and John Thompson of the Strategic Intelligence Group. Together, the picture they paint of what makes a “great” country looks something like this: Continue reading »

479 – The election of Donald Trump | Salim Mansur & John Thompson

TRUMP TOWERS—above his critics.

“I never doubted that Trump would win,” declares Western University’s Associate Professor of Political Science Salim Mansur, who has been accurately following, describing, and predicting the ascent of Donald Trump on Just Right since Trump first appeared on the GOP stage.

“The media establishment cannot be trusted with the truth,” adds John Thompson of the Strategic Intelligence Group, who likewise has been accurately following, describing, and predicting the destruction wrought by post-modernist thinking during his past appearances on Just Right.

Now back on the show together for the first time since the US election, our two powerhouse guests tell it like it is, like it was, and how it likely will be, given the reality of the situation. Tragically, reality runs entirely counter to the narrative offered by the so-called establishment media, which has become the biggest loser in the U.S. presidential election – an election which they should have reported, not attempted to control.

478 – Alt-Right Alt-Wrong / Collectivism – Individualism – Freedom

WHY HAS FREEDOM BEEN “LEFT-RIGHT” OUT? With Donald Trump now the U.S. president-elect, don’t expect the Trump haters to let up on their hatreds.

Unable to articulate any objective reasons for hating Trump, unwilling to accept defeat with the grace they demanded of Trump, unable to understand the forces that drive political realities, completely ignorant of Trump’s platform and agenda (which we covered in detail on last week’s show) Trump’s critics resort to the use of labels they also do not understand. Ironically, the labels they use apply to themselves: “racist” “sexist” “nazi” “fascist” and the usual array of collectivist words and constant expletives used to attack the messenger in an attempt to hide a truth that they cannot defeat.

The “Trump Derangement Syndrome” as we have called it on previous broadcasts of Just Right, continues unabated as a self-inflicted handicap on the part of its sufferers. Ironically, the hatred generated by the syndrome is not really directed at Donald Trump himself. It is directed at what has been broadly – and mistakenly – called the “right”.

This is a truth we have learned from personal experience and which continues to be demonstrated to us daily. Given that the name of our freedom-oriented weekly radio show is called “Just Right,” that’s pretty much all it takes for us to be irrationally attacked in the very same way as is Donald Trump. Just check out past posts made by such critics on our Facebook page for the abundance of evidence. One thing these critics will never offer is an objective reason for their hatreds.

OBAMAdon’tCARE – If You’re Sick
Does Donald Trump care?

With an “average” increase of 25% in health care insurance premiums slated for Americans under Obamacare next year (2017), the inconvenient truth about Obama’s government imposed health care “insurance” plan is this: Obamacare was a scheme designed for those who care more about votes than about health.

Back in Canada, the folly of state monopoly health care in the province of Ontario is becoming increasingly visible as more and more Ontarians begin to publicly tell their stories about their personal health care experiences within the state imposed system.

Ontario’s once gold-plated “Ontario Health Insurance Plan” (OHIP) is now dysfunctional and stretched beyond serviceable limits. In Ontario today, OHIP has become “O NO HIP Replacements” for months or years on end.

Donald Trump has called Canada’s single payer health care system “a disaster,” and as Canadians living in the heart of socialized health care country, we regret that we must agree with Mr. Trump on this count. Continue reading »

Could Donald Trump have been Just Right when insisting that the US election was being rigged?

The release this past Monday by Project Veritas Action, chronicling ‘straight-from-the-horse’s-mouth’ testimonies from the very people admitting to rigging the process, would certainly suggest so.

Already seen by millions of people within the first few days of its release on Youtube, the fact that the Democratic Party is indeed rigging the election can no longer be denied. It’s now documented, capable of being seen by any wishing to witness the sordid testimonies.

Yet, it is but one small fact among many. Together with many other known facts (including the Democratic platform itself), the fact of rigging elections supports a much greater and deeply sinister truth. Continue reading »

To say that Donald Trump was treated unfairly, unjustly, and disrespectfully during the second US presidential debate would be a gross understatement. Yet many disagree.

Even though the debate was among the most watched in American history (thanks to the presence of Trump) the vast majority of people nevertheless did not watch it. They are unfortunately relying on what they read and hear in the mainstream media – commentaries and reactions that would suggest that the media itself did not watch the debate.

From Globe and Mail columnist John Doyle’s “douchey” review of Donald Trump’s performance, to the myriad of distracted progressives in the media, journalism’s abandonment of its traditional function and status as the “fourth estate” appears all but over. Today’s mainstream “journalists” are increasingly dedicated to misinformation, disinformation, unbridled emotional frenzy and hatreds, and above all, dedicated to lies disguised as “facts.” That’s why Hillary Clinton loves “fact checking.” She knows that “facts” are the best way to obscure truths.

Like flies that keep banging their heads against the glass they cannot see, progressives of the left and right alike find themselves banging their heads against a force they refuse to see: the forces of reality about to visit their agendas of unreality. In this presidential election, Donald Trump represents that force. Continue reading »

“What is Aleppo?” asked US Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson when questioned by CNN about his stand on the Syrian city. His honest question could have easily been asked by most Americans and Canadians alike.

Aleppo, of course, is the Syrian city currently at the epicenter of today’s middle-east conflicts. From daily news accounts of the violence, the streams of refugees pouring out into Europe and now to North America, and of the growing polarization over immigration policies, the West is faced with a crisis that few Western leaders seem to comprehend. As a consequence, many Western leaders end up making matters even worse.

With America and Russia at odds over the Assad regime, many have good reason to fear that a conflict much larger than the one in Syria may erupt. Syria’s problems have become the world’s problems, and the world’s problems may well be soon revisited upon Syria.

Just as many might justifiably stumble over the question “What is Aleppo?”, so too most would not be able to answer another key question that bears on events much closer to home: “Who is America’s best presidential candidate for peace?”

Answer: Donald Trump. Indeed, America’s direct involvement in Syria could be a thing of the past if U.S. president Donald Trump has his way. Continue reading »
