Madeleine Albright: Trump is most 'undemocratic' US president in modern history
By Justin Wise - 07/01/18 11:54 AM EDT

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright on Sunday called President Trump the "most undemocratic president in modern American history.”

Albright made the comments on BBC while being questioned about Trump's strategies as a political leader and if he could be described as a "fascist."

“I don’t think President Trump is a fascist,” Albright said on "The Andrew Marr Show." “I do think he’s the most undemocratic president in modern American history. That troubles me.

"By the way, it’s not easy as a former diplomat to be in a foreign country and criticize one's own president. But I am concerned."

I get her confused with someone who is relevant today.    Like Helen Thomas.

Translation:  Unlike most other US Presidents.... Trump is not caving to the whims of majority/mob rule.... even (or especially) if/when it relates to the future freedoms, security and sovereignty of our nation.

Trump is doing what all the others were supposed to do (See: Obama apologizing for America while selling America out).

So.... suck it, Maddy.

Albright, who served as secretary of State from 1997-2001, has continually criticized Trump throughout his presidency, and recently said that his administration's immigration policies were “un-American and appalling.”

She railed against Trump for his rhetoric regarding immigrants last month, tweeting that "immigrants, legal or not, are people who want to improve their lives. To refer to them as animals or insects is to foster hate."

So says the lady who thought half a million starving children in Iraq was worth it.





Knowing that the sanctions did nothing to Saddam.  The children that cross the American border from Mexico and actually are saved by border patrol are healthy.  Clothed, fed and given medical attention.  They are loved by the staff who take care of them.

What she's saying is "Trump is NOT Governing by our manufactured polling numbers on the issues from minute to minute."

Madeline Notbright is the second dumbest Secretary of State this country has had.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Good. This is not a democracy, and so we shouldn't want a president who believe it is.

It is a tie.  Kerry has to figure into this.

She and Clinton had Christians killed on Easter Sunday in their war on Serbs. They bombed hospitals. So excuse me if I don't give a rat's rear end for her "learned" opinion on anything.

The Republican National Committee voiced their concerns about that war continuously.  They knew that we were supporting Al Qaeda and bin Laden in the war against Serbs.  And just as Clinton lied about being shot at on the tarmac, she and her husband at the very least manufactured stories about mass graves.  They gave bloated stories to gain media attention and support from the American people in a war to support terrorists.

Daniel Pearl wrote about it.  I often wondered if he was killed for his reporting on that war.

Actually, being a populist makes him far more 'democratic'. Whether or not that is a good thing in a Constitutional Republic is another story.
