Trump and JFK’s “Fascist New Frontier”

by | Dec 7, 2016

In his speech at Fayetteville, NC, yesterday Donald Trump said:

“Our men and women in uniform represent the absolute best of us. We must follow their example working in unison toward a shared goal across every social, racial and economic line. They understand that to accomplish the mission we must all be pulling in the same direction. We have to get together.”

Read that carefully and let it sink it. I’m reminded of Ayn Rand’s debunking of JFK and what she called the “Fascist New Frontier.” (See George Smith’s “Ayn Rand on Fascism.”)
