Concession regarding Trump

[Storebought]

F all of appeasers: I want to see Trump destroyed.

The best way of burying Trump regime is aggressive, never-ending interest rate hikes from the Fed the second the last Obama fiscal quarter ends (so that no one can be partisan and stupid enough to blame the tanking economy on him). No way should he be allowed to borrow-and-spend this country to ruin when US Treasuries reach credit card level interest rates.

The more I've thought about it, posts like this one are the reason why the Left, broadly defined, has been nearly completely wiped out in the US and Europe.

The OP is essentially asking people who vote Left, for whatever reasons (economic, social, personal), to put aside their fears -- put aside the very reasons why they voted Left at all -- and to "hope" and "wish" that the Right will not be as destructive to their well-being and their self-interests as the Right has all but promised they will be during the campaign. No, Left-wing lawmakers, parties, or activists won't make any attempt to stop or delay or at the very least mitigate the damage the Right will wreak of the interests of their voters. The isolated voters themselves have to make do in the face of the onslaught the best way they can manage.

As obnoxious as this call to self-induced amnesia as it is, it is in no sense a novelty. The Left (here I mean parties and action groups) has continually stiffed its very own voters and interests from the 1970s onward (the one exception being in the area of gay rights -- but the gay rights movement has always been driven by the wealthy white middle classes and the Democrats will never abandon them). Is it then any wonder why the Democrats in the US and the socialists in Europe have been abandoned, when the Democrats and the socialists have all but abandoned their own base and left them to their own self-defense?

But that doesn't explain why those abandoned voters then decide to vote for the Right. I puzzled about that for a while now, until I realized this:

The crux of OP's argument is Trump "isn't nearly as bad (to the Left) as you think it is." In other words, it is more than just a concession regarding the upcoming horror of President Trump -- it is a concession that this administration will carry out supposedly left wing reforms better than any Democratic administration can. I find that line of thinking completely magical: I could go in details about the absurdity in ignoring everything Trump has said during the debates, the campaign stops, the RNC, the ongoing spectacle of his Cabinet choices (one poster said it was like he was assembling his very own Politburo) and just hope that he and his appointments have the interests of the 54% of the population who voted against him at heart, but I won't need to. If the interests of left-wing voters are to be so well taken care of by a GOP administration -- let alone Trump's -- that we can ignore the violence in their implementation, then why vote for a Democratic Party at all?

I guess one benefit from this is that left-wing voters can finally stop relying on the federal government to resolve their issues, since it won't in any case.
