Both are "politically incorrect", however one gets cheered and the other gets shunned. While I like things that both say, it's their incompetence that rubs me the wrong way. Lots of smart people have decades of experience and knowledge in winning Presidential elections, yet Trump seems to think he's smarter than all the consultants combined. The same goes for Westboro Baptist Church. There was no effective push back against homosexual marriage; it would have been a golden opportunity for Westboro. But, NOOOOO they had to picket military funerals, curse Israel and focus on getting attention for themselves. Incompetence costs our society more than ISIS ever could.

Speaking of ISIS, we have the right chest beating and the left butt kissing. Why not just follow the evidence and neutralize the threat to American interests? Wounding the fighters is better than killing them. A wounded fighter eats up labor and capital in a hospital bed while contributing nothing.
