Strawmen are not the norm but they are out there. I would say the public use of crude language and perversion was more thanks to the opposition then Trump himself. Also with hindsight. Trump offered the UK true free trade (something the Uk will need if they ever want a successful Brexit) and it was rejected.

the only reason i like red is cuz they arent racist, not because of good policies or anything, just simply that reason, and that reason alone, and im a supporter of communism but still support trump cuz the dems have gone full racist which is worse than capitalism
Watching this hurts my heart so much because I've seen it happen IRL. There's such a good message here and if I don't watch it over and over I feel like I'll fall into the trap myself.
Brilliantly shows the hypocrisy of both sides. It's so annoying to try to explain to people these days that if you're libertarian, you're not on either side.
weedwak ive met some real libertarians, but most ppl who claim it are just too scared of upsetting one side or the other, and they dont want to take responsibility for taking a position, no?
AlexLoeher I strongly disagree. Throughout my years of political activism, starting in my student youth and going into my activism with the local GOP liberty caucus and libertarian party, I cannot come to believe what you have written. To keep a long story short: you're out of touch.
@@pimc172 we've been like this for years. 1. Hasn't gotten hot yet 2. Given that Biden is part of the very establishment that created MAGA in the first place shows that the "Civil War" really had nothing to do with Trump. He was a symptoms of the problem
Well Trump was the first president in forever to not start a single war. He also tried to remove Obamacare and made the government in many ways smaller with all the tax cuts. I'd say ReasonTV has many reasons to like him.
I could think of a few...election fraud, Biden corruption with Ukraine and China, and all the evilness being accepted through the mainstream media. Yeah, I can think of a few. They are all terribly sad.
It took me too long to find this channel and these videos but I must say they make me happy every day. The gift that keeps on giving because nothing is really changing.
I'm a Trump supporter but I still have a sense of humor and can admit this was funny. But let's be honest no ones perfect, especially not Trump but I agree with the majority of his proposals even if he messes up sometimes. Let's not pretend to be neutral when we're not.
Love the original song, so parody is still awesome. The current establishment opposition to Trump is not anti-war at all. Just anti-speech, free-association, and due process. There is not a single part of Democratic Socialism that should appeal to a libertarian. Both democracy and socialism are tyranny. 2016 outcome was still better than another Bush or Clinton in the White House. My fellow millennials are starting to see value in federalism and limits on national power. Unfortunately we still have the Drug War and the Foreign Wars. Gary was the only man who could have changed it, but that was never gonna happen. If only he didn't insist on baking the Nazi cake and knew a foreign leaders name. Aleppo gotcha question was complete B.S. The media always fails libertarians. The second a libertarian starts talking outside the index card of allowable opinion----they ask him about those decades-old racist newsletters. Trump is making the media look like the sycophantic ideologues we always knew them to be.
He isn't really making fun of either. He's saying that both sides have valid points and that they have things they care about that they SHOULD care about because they're important. The religious guy isn't played up for laughs. He's shown to be a loving father who cares about raising his children to be polite and respectful. He doesn't like the "coarsened culture" and wants to get back to a smaller government. These are all good things. The younger guy isn't played up for laughs, either. He's shown to be someone who doesn't want us to be in any wars. But the fact is that they both discard their morals in the name of supporting "their team" (or, really, to support a team that isn't really "theirs" but is "the enemy of the team I dislike more when both teams are doing the same shit.") The conservative guy said that he wants to support Trump despite Trump embracing foul language "that up 'til now I abhorred." He's picking a candidate that he doesn't even like because he perceives it as "his team" (or better than the other team). The younger democratic guy says that he is willing to "protest and scream" things like wars & droning, "unless, you know, it hurts.. my team" because Obama did all the same shit. Remy ~recently (last year) put out a video from a republican PoV where he's "happy" that Biden is in office so that he can now suddenly start caring again about shit like the national debt. The point is that both sides are hypocrites: they only care about things (war, debt, morals) insofar that they will oppose their "team" to stop the "enemy" from winning. And the real message is that NEITHER side should be happy with the options that they are given. Neither should be voting, and ideally, dare I say it, should consider voting independent for a party that actually aligns with them.
Pop music is such shit these days. Whereas it used to be a shared culture, now it's just a big fat parasite on groupthink. I know that's not entirely new: "50 million Elvis fans can't be wrong!" Sorry, but 1 billion Chainsmokers fans are musical retards.
I passed through this stage of old age in 2014, when a youtube channel I'm subscribed too stopped parodying songs I like and started parodying songs either didn't like or had never heard of.
This video sure is interesting four years later. Turns out that Trump wasn't the giant dictator so many thought he would be, and he did more to promote peace than any president since Reagan. That spending though... Yikes.
The military spending was overkill, but I think the rest of it was due to Democrats forcing his hand on the budget. Remember Trump was getting blamed for the government shutdown and people not getting paid makes them upset, so Trump had to sign a spending bill that he mostly disagreed with in order to maintain any sort of positive image.
The Vietnam War was stopped because the media was against it and were broadcasting its horrors back home, while during Obama, the media rarely mentioned how terrible the wars were. The media truly are the most powerful entities in this country
This one didn't age well, as Trump ended up being one of the least militaristic presidents in decades, kinda whiffed on that one. I don't think most conservatives liked Trumps language, or his history with women. Not to say democrats liked Clintons either, to be fair, Clintons history with women was way worse though, in that regard, Bidens is about on par with Trump in regard to mistreatment of women.
This was Remy's test -- how does he treat Trump. Yeah be bagged on liberals but will he bag on conservatives??? And he did. Well. Thank you. Hypocrisy and greed and bad on either side.
Really? The media pulishes and plays non stop a private conversation between three adults behind closed walls and after he apologized it's still his fault?
Love this video. No new wars, historical middle east peace deals, a quiet N Korea. Countries that were starting to pay into the UN. And then it all went to shit.
I think the problem with this analysis of the political landscape is a bit off. If a politician agrees with you 70-80% of the time, that's better than most. Unfortunately, that often means supporting someone that you don't like. I support Trump, but I don't really like him as a person. Heck, back in 2016, I would have preferred about half of the 16 Republican primary candidates over Trump: Cruz, Paul, Fiorina, Walker, Carson, or Rubio would have all made fine presidents. Heck, Fiorina would have canceled out the "first woman president" card that Hillary was playing.
I don’t think all of the gop economics and dems social policy’s are the best I think those are the best of each parties but the left is really nazi with its policy in some cases and the right can have to free of a market
just now learning about you and I have got to say I am impressed so far. not only with your observations but these songs are done really well man, your really talented.
Compared to the Hollywood video this wins the best yet award much more professional makes it entertaining and the point is made thats why I subscribe to this channel keep it up.
Worldlylexicon just my way of saying people always make compromises, even with their own stated (and actual) values, in "politics". From the politician all the way down to the voter. That is the essence of choosing between "the lessor of two evils".
Yeh but what i meant was it seems if liberals are protesting him, his stance on war doesnt factor in. I mean from what i here them saying they're protesting misogyny, racism, fascism, relationship with russia and his climate change stance. Havent seen any anti-war protests over him.
The point is that the anti-war left glossed over Obama's invasions and dronings. These things (dronings especially) are likely to continue apace because of things like inertia and elements of a deep state. The Left will now discover that these things are bad. They've already accused him of being someone untrustworthy with nukes etc.
All of the back and forth left/right rhetoric is getting old. BOTH sides are controlled by the same upper NWO parasites. Presidents/puppets are merely actors with a stroke of a pen make it legal/illegal for the imperialist ultra wealthy. The LARGEST of pro NWO agendas continue under any puppet that was pre determined for the masses to fall prey to. Amazing how the cult of personality programming still works

Jacques Marneweck Yeah but the hypocrisy is exaggerated through strawmen...so there is that.

Why? We're here for propaganda
There was no war during 45. (except one Syrian bombing)
I'm binge watching Remy now. Damn good

A little late to the party, found him from his Magic parodies, but THE. BINGE. IS. AWN.
“Pass the stuff we got at boulder” oh Colorado
Watching this in the age of Biden is actually something you have to laugh at or you'll cry. Still funny how Trump hasn't started any New wars

Man, I feel as though these were the good ol' days... Looking back in late 2020.

We are back baby!
Remy's parodies are so much better then the real songs.

He destroyed Isis.

The worst part about modern politics is that both parties lost their identity and it's just became about beating the other team
Not only beating the other team, but silencing working-class voters.
