What's this?

He's a scumbag, but he's our scumbag. God works in mysterious ways.

Turns out a godless narcisstic pussy grabbing scumbag is advancing god's work in stacking a judiciary with lifetime appointments who will guarantee certain key policies stay in place no matter what the voting public wants in the coming years and decades.

For many current populist nationalists, that is all they care about IMO. Personally, I've had my fill of populism, so I'm not a fan of your prescription for beating Trump. I'm also concerned about its prospects. I think it might engage the far left like never before, but I'm not convinced it will engage a broad dem coalition. The far left candidates aren't polling well with minority constituencies, for example. I could see that approach engaging the hell out of NY, SF, Boston, and the like. And as a result a Trump electoral win with maybe less than 45% of the popular vote.
