Released about now in time for Halloween.

I would agree it’s preferable that people wise up before a huge collapse. I do think tho that it’s going to take a collapse before enough people will wise up. Once people have been entitled and used to freebies, they don’t give those things easily

They would go after her as religious conservative, not because she has children.

"Going Galt", i.e., dropping out, would do nothing to overturn bad ideas. That is not what Ayn Rand advocated..

Ayn Rand did not say that the system has to collapse before rational ideas can be heard. She advocated the opposite: she wanted people to go into the professions, especially, where they could advocate the right ideas and create a better influence. She feared that if the system collapses it will collapse into dictatorship or the anarchy of civil war or both, making civilized life impossible at all, let alone advocating and spreading rational ideas.

...Then make this best selling book into a movie.

I'm ba-ack having gotten some things taken care of with more to do but most of that is put off for tomorrow. .
You want flaws. You're a demanding little cuss, aren't you?
Let's see, months ago ewv took me to task for writing something praiseworthy about Trump did and logically proved both I and the Tangerine Tornado were flawed in our thinking.
The problem about that is, me old dino can't remember what the heck that was. Old dino regrets those too many days when I forget to take my Prevagen like I almost forgot to do right now.
Once again, I'm ba-ack! This time I'm working on a chewable Prevagen.
So what flaws do my rusty innards recall?
Me dino recalls it being discussed on this board that Trump has no problem with the enforcement of eminent domain. Well, me dino has a problem with that as does many Gulchers.
And Trump likes to talk about helping out the little guy. A little guy really feels little when he's forced to watch a bulldozer knock down his house to make way for a shopping center.
Perhaps because this next bit also adds to his power, the Ornery Orange Of The Big Apple has no problem with the Patriot Act and maybe that's a big factor why Kavanangh was at the top of his nomination list.
Blaring Trumpet's speeches have become annoyingly repetitive for me or perhaps me dino is the one flawed for watching too many of them on Fox News.
And then there is his hair. His silly looking hair!
Why am I thinking of The Three Stooges in a barbershop? No, no, a hair stylist. Perhaps one with a crewcut who calls himself Curly.
Anyhoo, listening to yet another speech just yesterday, I saw Halloween Hair look off to one side, providing me with a profile. Along the side oif his head, I saw the longest and widest bald crease I've ever seen in his hair before. Ugly!

Fully agree.

The witch has been showing up in some TV programs such as Murphy Brown and Madam Secretary.

This is how the USA has gotten to the point that it has. Compromise with evil usually just gets one closer to evil rather than to the good. If I recall right, Rand wrote something about the direction in which compromise leads.

Sheesh!

Well, that is a good answer.

You still did not spell out what were Trump's flaws?

Tucker Carlson wrote a book called Ship Of Fools.
Me dino hasn't read it, but I'm thinking someone close to the Kavanaugh hearings should write a book called Circus Of Fools.

Of, course, everyone is flawed.
Of course,Trump has strong points that matter. His policies has big time jacked up the economy, job growth and the stock market and he undid a lot of stupid stuff a traitor named Obama pulled off.
The Clintons are criminals and both Bushes were jerks.
Rocket Man is no longer shooting missiles all over the place.
I could go on. Could be nothing I write will please you. Got other stuff to do.
Sheesh!

I agree that it takes heavy duty disaster to get people to change their basic mode of living. I am amazed at how much of a disaster it takes- Look at Venezuela. I would have expected a violent overthrow of the socialist government by now.

I do think AR was right in AS- the system needs to collapse before a John Galt can actually be heard and understood. I think its going to be a long road of decline here in the USA to use up "other peoples' money" before real objectivist changes could be accepted on a widespread basis.

Flawed? What are his flaws?

Was Bush or Obama faultless? Let alone Clinton?

Show me one individual who is not flawed.

It does not matter what his weak points are. He has strong points that matter and what is important for the future of the country.

Within an illiberal circus of so many ferocious humanoid animals and so many overly emotional clowns, there is little time to ask such rational questions.

Yes.

Unfortunately people change their thinking only when their very existence is threatened. You can refer to the Europeans who are still denying that the Muslim invasion is dangerous (countries like France, Germany and Sweden for example).

There are two ways out: one is to kill the prog/liberal movement and eliminate its most vocal supporters, the other is to hand over control to them which inevitably would lead to the death of the country.

I think its way too late to expect actual political changes. Before that must come a realization that reason needs to supplant emotion when making philosophical decisions. Right now, emotion is the gold standard, and it shouldnt be. I think a change like that is at least one or two generations away. The reason I say this is that growing up from relying on emotion as a baby and learning to thnk happens (IMHO) at an early age and substantially doesnt change after that.

The information in the link you provided are the things that should have been brought up without of all the distracting smoke and mirrors of the noisy left's phony allegations.
Me dino has described Trump as well-meaning but flawed.

I don't think that the Liberals have any idea of what they have done to the women in their base. Ironically, this latest double standard that is used against Republicans has hurt their cause. An awful lot of people know that Ford is lying, and now women will no longer be automatically believed, which of course, is the way that it should be. This doesn't serve the Liberal agenda well. Go "Mama Bears."
