I have seen the light and am now part of the Orb team on behalf of our cosmic sorceress Marianne Williamson. Donald Trump won by harnessing people's fear and only someone who understands this can defeat him. Just check out these stunning quotes:

"I'm sorry we haven't talked more tonight about how we're going to beat Donald Trump... I have an idea about Donald Trump. Donald Trump is not going to be beaten just by insider politics talk. He's not going to be beaten by just by somebody who has plans. He's going to be beaten by somebody who has an idea what that man has done.

So, Mr. President, if you're listening, I want you to hear me please: You have harnessed fear for political purposes, and only love can cast that out. So, I, sir, I have a feeling you know what you're doing. I'm going to harness love for political purposes. I will meet you on that field, and, sir, love will win."

Boom!

She's also patriotic:
"In 1776 our founders brought forth on this planet an extraordinary new possibility. It was the idea that people, no matter who they were, would simply have the possibility of thriving. We have not ever totally actualized this ideal... Conventional politics will not solve this problem because conventional politics is part of the problem. We the American people must rise up and do what we do best and create a new possibility, say no to what we don't want and yes to what we know can be true." — Marianne Williamson​

She protecc, she attacc but most importantly, she love.


Unfortunately, the mainstream media are out to get our Orb Queen because she is not afraid to call them out for having sold out to corporate interests:


Marianne Williamson for God Empress!

Marianne Williamson for God Empress!

She is a new age nut job. However, she still seems less threatening than most of the Democrat crazies. I actually like Tulsi Gabbard a little better because of her looks.

Most Googled Democrat may not make next debate
CNN Business

Yeah, Tulsi Gabbard is unique in among the female Democrats in that she's not a run-of-the-mill career politician or a professional victim or something. Elizabeth Warren will never get passed Pocahontas, so it's odd that she's running and really thinks she can get passed that. Kamala Harris is a career prosecutor type, but she's fucked because she's a Democrat and the Democrats have turned on law enforcement and her prosecutorial career has a bit of dirt in it; and, her feminism is in question as she rode the cocks of Willie Brown and others for career advancement. Amy Klobuchar has the personality of a fence post and isn't from an area with extensive media exposure, so she's at a significant disadvantage with name recognition and personality. Kirsten Gillibrand is too much of an opportunist--her embrace of the Clintons while stabbing Al Franken in the back suggests she's just one more person who will say or do anything to move up the food chain.

I just don't see Marianne Williamson going that far. She's a Jew with nominal ties to Christianity and some far out religious ideas that pretty much kills her with blacks and evangelicals. No chance of winning.

[Hindsite]

I heard that Tulsi Gabbard gave a little criticism to CNN. Some pundits on CNN then said she may not make the next debate. However, I just hear that she qualified for the next debate. So I wonder what CNN is going to do to her. Here is a reference:

'Very biased': Tulsi Gabbard campaign criticizes CNN ahead of Wednesday's debate
USA TODAY July 31, 2019

Saying CNN was "very biased," 2020 presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard's campaign on Wednesday called on the Democratic National Committee to reconsider the network in future debates if it continues to be "unfair."

Tulsi Gabbard has criticized "mainstream media outlets" for their coverage on her presidential campaign. Last month following the debate, Gabbard criticized MSNBC while speaking to Fox News' Tucker Carlson.

"Look, it shows that there is a clear bias in place," she said on Tucker Carlson Tonight. "I made the most of every minute that I had, wish I had the opportunity to have more time to address these important issues."

PoFo rightwingers ain't be havin' no Bernie.

[anasawad]

Bernie is great. But Tulsi is cute. So....

[Red_Army]

I think the debates would be better if Bernie was holding a leash connected to Joe Biden while Tulsi, Kamala, and Marianne lez out. I don't know what kind of questions should be asked, but that's my thought. The rest of the dipshits can pound sand.

[anasawad]

Or, get Bernie as president and Tulsi as vice president, so you guys can have all the benefits of Bernie, while we can keep seeing Tulsi on TV.

[Hindsite]

PoFo rightwingers ain't be havin' no Bernie.

Bernie and Warren are just con artists claiming they can give away free stuff. That is always a clue to hold on to your wallet.

Marianne Williamson is an anti-vax crazy who grew up in some kind of positive thinking cult that predated The Secret. I also heard she's like Oprah's spiritual advisor or something? Which, if true, makes her a god tier grifter since Oprah's whole schtick is being the good vibes messiah.

That said, I did enjoyed this interview she had with terminal moron Dave Rubin. Linking the Majority Report version because it's shorter, but the gist of it is: David Rubin invited her on thinking she could get her to say "Democrats are the real racists" and he ended up being in awe of her ability to string sentences together into coherent thoughts and basically sat there like a 2nd grader listening to teacher.

Not like demolishing Dave Rubin is an impressive feat, but it was fun watching her teach him.

She, in this video at least, comes off as an empathetic person who looks at the big picture. Can't really say I've seen much of her.

I've been telling everyone on the internet that I possibly can that I think Marianne Williamson will be the Democratic nominee for President in 2020. And that's no joke.

[SpecialOlympian]

Honestly it would be fucking hilarious if the right-wing pulled a Hillary and got what they believed was the worst possible candidate the nomination only to lose.

She does have the same quality Trump had: which was being radically different from a bunch of career politicians grown from the same culture sample.

But Trump succeeded because the GOP base has been conditioned to love and respect the performative bullying aspect of reactionary thought, which only cares about power and the exercise of power. Reactionary thought is more constrained because it is simply that: reactive.

This is why the reactionary infotainment market thrives; it is a narrow worldview defined by its opposition to the world as it currently exists and not a fully formed ideology capable of creating a reactionary utopia. It can't create one because that reactionary thought does not seek to create, it seeks to regress to a past time out of a sense of nostalgia. It is defined by retreat and undoing, not the creation of an idealized place.

Marianne isn't going to pick up steam. She is interesting though.

I think she will pick up steam, because she has a certain kind of charisma that appeals not just to certain types of voters, but people in general. She's like Trump, a really good master persuader. She has weaknesses to be sure, same as he did, but I'm convinced she'll get the nomination.

She won't win against Trump, but it'll be like nothing you've ever seen in your life watching them go at it.

[SpecialOlympian]

You've been reading too much Scott Adams because Trump is not a master persuader. He lost the popular vote by 3 million.

If you want to attribute tactical sense to how he won the Electoral College then that's fine and reasonable. But losing a popularity vote is, literally, the definition of not being persuasive.

To me, Marianne Williamson comes off as another crazy liberal, not much different from the two crazy liberals in the video.

[SpecialOlympian]

Cool I'll just put her in the 99.9% of humanity who is to the left of you. Thanks for your input, Hindsite.

As always, your thoughtful contributions are appreciated.

[Palmyrene]

Marianne won't win the GOP vote because she is a woman.

[Hindsite]

Marianne won't win the GOP vote because she is a woman.

Another reason is that she is running as a Democrat.
Praise the Lord.

I'm not going to get into the voter fraud in localities controlled by the democratic party anymore than GOP skullduggery, it's a fact of American political life. Trump is indeed a master persuader and since you do a little people wizardry yourself you know as well as I do if not more that it works best with the audience you identify with or who identify with you...

And no, I'm not a Liberal nor a Conservative, my politics would probably be considered Socialist in America but in Europe I might be considered a reactionary in some of my positions. I don't have a dog in this hunt, even though America is where I was born and raised-it's become alien and twisted to me altogether.

I was right in identifying Obama as soon as he threw his hat in the ring, same as with Trump, and now I see or sense the same pattern with Williamson.

[SpecialOlympian]

Trump is indeed a master persuader

No, he is literally not by even the strictest definitions. You can ascribe Trump's victory in other ways, but it was not by persuasion. Unless it is "targeted persuasion."

Would you describe a person who is hated by more than half the people he meets popular? No, you wouldn't. Why is this exception made for Trump in your mind?
