Paul Krugman Exposes the Real Reason Trump (and Ryan) Are Trash-Talking America
Ryan's vision is still straight out of Ayn Rand's 1950's vision.

Paul Krugman explores one of this election cycle's biggest ironies in Monday's column. Once upon a time, it was conservatives who yelled, "America, love it or leave it!" at those who protested its various injustices. Now, it is the right which trash-talks the country.

"This is obviously true for Donald Trump, who views the world through blood-colored glasses," Krugman writes. "In his vision of America — clearly derived largely from white supremacist and neo-Nazi sources — crime is running wild, inner cities are war zones, and hordes of violent immigrants are pouring across our open border. In reality, murder is at a historic low, we’re seeing a major urban revival and net immigration from Mexico is negative. But I’m only saying that because I’m part of the conspiracy."

But Krugman's real target this time is not Trump, it is Paul Ryan, whom Krugman regards as equaly dangerous and dishonest, but somehow still a media darling. This despite "the obvious fraudulence and cruelty of his proposals," Krugman write angily, and his utter "moral spinelessness" and failure to fully break with Trump.


Case in point, the picture of America Ryan portrayed in a speech to the College Republicans. Krugman's descripion:.....................................

The outcome of the 2016 presidential election won’t tell us anything we don’t already know about the two major-party candidates — but it will say a lot about who we are.

Are we a nation that believes in freedom of religion, a right our founders held so dear they enshrined it in the First Amendment, or are we a nation that denies entry and citizenship to people of one specific faith?

Are we a nation that believes in the rule of law and the limited powers of the presidency, or are we a nation that wants its president to prosecute and jail his political opponents?


Are we a nation that believes in shared sacrifice and the notion that taxes are the dues we all pay for living in a free society, or are we a nation that exempts people of means from that obligation at the expense of the less privileged?

Are we a nation.....................

Are we a nation that celebrates the cultural, ethnic and racial diversity ............

Are we a nation.....................

For those who believe America should be a beacon of a hope in a world ravaged by terrorism, that it should be a force for good and that its leaders should embody all that is best about this nation, there is only one choice for president: Hillary Clinton.

The Democratic nominee is intelligent, experienced and respected by our allies around the world. Her detractors say she’s too secretive and too distrustful of the press and the public — and they’re right. But these are characteristics that would have prompted almost anyone else with her background to retire from public life and seek employment in the far more lucrative private sector.

Clinton has instead taken the path of greatest resistance, choosing to remain in the public arena where, for almost 40 years, she has fended off an unrelenting barrage of politically motivated attacks while fighting for social justice......................
