Noam Chomsky on Trump: "The Other Candidates are Not That Different" 

This man can talk about some of the worst things there are in our world today, but he still makes me feel compassion and makes me want to get up and do something to fight against injustice. Noam Chomsky is the greatest man I know of.

Curious what Chomsky has to say about Trump? Don't bother watching the video -- I've watched it for you. What Chomsky has to say about Trump is almost completely contained in the video title. ALL he has to say about Trump can be heard from times 15:05 - 15:27 and 18:22 - 18:27. Give me a like for saving you time; or at least give a like in support of honesty in video titles.

What worries me is who is going to take Mr.Chomsky's place after he's gone. Right now, I don't see anyone in this world capable of matching this man's intellect. May he be blessed with health & long life. A fan from Pakistan.

Here, Noam looks like an angel.

i didn't realise Einsteins barber was still alive.

I think Paul Krugmen made a great point when he stated "...Yet racial hatred is still a potent force in our society, as we’ve just been reminded to our horror. And I’m sorry to say this, but the racial divide is still a defining feature of our political economy, the reason America is unique among advanced nations in its harsh treatment of the less fortunate and its willingness to tolerate unnecessary suffering among its citizens."

THIS IS A MAN THAT WHAT HE SAIDS IS SO SMART SO TRUE, SO CLEAN, .THAT ONLY WE MUST THANK GOD FOR THIS HUMAN.

I just love Noam's hair!

It breaks my heart to see this man getting old. I would happily give what's left of my life, if it could be added on to his.

I love this Man. May he live a long long life.

I'd love to see him debate Trump

Norman Chomsky is a very Intelligent man and very honest, every one should mind what he says.

Loving Noam's hairdo.

Democracy Now & Noam Chomsky -- a match made in Paradise. Love the moderator, too. Thank you for this wonderful program. The intellectually gifted Chomsky may (in my opinion) be dry and monotone in verbal delivery -- but always at the same time dynamic and exciting and provocative. And therein likes the miracle of this charismatic speech-maker.

I waited so long to hear Chomsky talk about the current republican representatives. Thanks for the upload.

Prophetic, as always. It would do good for the US Government to listen to Noam instead of Henry Kissinger if they want their grand kids to see any future.

Thanks we need more people like sir in this country. You should be our persistent.

Chomsky is really a Dove. #haircut

Awesome Report Thanks!

The truth of what Chomsky says is so compelling. I wish he was running for President so he could get a national platform. Every American needs to hear him.

They should call this channel democracy later.

Noam is a legend. They should call a street in each city after him.

Dr Chomsky as allways ,precise,Accurate and Truthfull.

Thank you, Noam. We love you man.

That is the best answer of politics today, and we should be embarrassed.

Noam seems to have more energy than last year. His voice doesn't fry as quickly.

Here's a precis for you: Noam says the USA enmity to Iran and fuss about Iran nukes is only a smokescreen for the USA and Israel's desire to have no one in the neighbourhood that might hinder their ability to exercise force, make war, do whatever they like whenever they like in the Middle East. He points out all the nominal reasons for fearing Iran being a nuclear state are ridiculous. He points out Iran's military budget is a fraction of that of the Gulf States. He points out that Iran is simply seeking a deterrent against those who may be tempted to harm them. Even an American General said he'd do the same thing, want the same thing, if he were Irani. And on the way there he points out something even more dramatic and potentially fearsome: Pakistan and its nuclear arsenal and its nuclear position. It is not part of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty (nor is Israel). It recognises a threat from radical Muslims (Daesh etc.) and has a nuclear 'protection' force of some 20,000 men who are there to protect Pakistan's nuclear weapons. All, of course, Muslim. Can you see a potential danger there? I can. I can surmise we could be nuked any time and that nuking could set off WWIII if the USA and Russia thought it was because of the other. That's what Noam says.

For the love of God, get a haircut.

democracynow is one of the best news organizations out there. They give interviews with people that corporate media refuses to acknowledge, such as Noam Chomsky. This statement about other Republicans being not much different from Trump ought to be common sense, but we need people like Chomsky to stand up and say it. And news organizations that matter will report it.

Love this man. Always did because he's just so articulate and brilliant on his analysis, BUT there is an hair issue going on for a long, long time buddy Chomsky! Long live Noam!

He goes down in history along the names of Plato,Descartes, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Hume, Kant,Schopenhauer ... Its just a shame we appreciate the ideas of great thinkers decades after they have passed.

Monotone as some complain but his words are all lean and no fat He get's it

That's exactly what I said. Thanks Noam

cool hair style Doctor, cheers

Noam, brilliant, as usual!

Noam's hair as of recently just kills me lol

Beautiful woman and love hearing Chomsky thoughts.

I love his new hair-do also.

Good talk. :-)

A vivid, sharp, accurate and objective analysis of the geopolitical and strategic done in the middle-east. I love you Man. Noam for president!

Chomskys the logo for Wendy's Hamburgers

That's called the "Angel" haircut.

ProTip: skip to 14:50 to actually hear his opinion on the subject matter

02:40 mr. Chomsky meant to say" mortal Shiaa! jihadis" instead, Iran is a shiaa jihadi and not sunni jihadi

head wings

There are no traduction ?

any questions? bearing in mind ive already explained about my hair!

Sweet perm!

I can see why Chomsky and Sanders are good buddies, it's the hair.

Saw the thumbnail and thought the weakest link

On his hairdo: I wonder if he is going for the style of his hero, Bertrand Russell?

Noam Chomsky for world president.

Chomsky's hair vs Trumps'

any other channels like Democracy Now? far and away the best channel i've found for real political news and opinions, don't have to wade through as much BS as in some other channels.

Hope this man still lives on for many years

I heard this man's name several times in my college year.. so this is he.

I think this guy might be a Jedi.

I constantly tell people that Trump Isn’t much different than other politicians in the Democratic Party. He’s just open about what he does. The two system party needs to go.period.

Put the speed up to 1.5 to listen to Noam speak at the speed in he did when he was 30.

Noam looking with his heihachi look

Bad hair day:) ..still amazing to listen to though.

Noam is too smart for the 21st century....

This guy speaks the truth..

No more Red Bull for Norm. He's got wings.

Love the hair. There used to be a clown with hair like this, I think his name was Bozzo...

Hair like angels wings.....

Chomsky is trying to imitate the Heihachi Mishima look.

hahah everyone please do not try repeating her introductory sentence. m´am we got all the time in the world. you´re free to take at least two breaths while introducing Noam.

Myself and noam went out on the absolute piss after that interview,he was hilarious swilling pints and had a traffic cone on his head as we walked home locked. Great night

Chomsky's hair is WILD

Noam Chomsky as Wolverine.

Wow! Professor Chomsky is starting to look like Grandpa from the Munsters!

Maybe he should leave his post at MIT, The most prolific and infamous weapons developer in the world. He should probably return the money he has received from the DoD over the last 3 decades.

Look at that hair. Then they make fun of Trump's hair.

I read below: "I think all people should be proud of their race" Why? What is there to be proud of? Race is not an accomplishment. People on both sides should stop taking race so seriously.

Some day they will make a movie about Noam Chomsky. And Jeff Daniels will play him.

Trump was not mentioned until 15:15 into the video. Before that, Noam seemed to talk in his sleep - or maybe it was me sleeping and him talking - not sure. Love the electro-shock hairdo.

Princess Leia got old!

Chomsky... What the hell are you doing with your hair?

This title is very misleading... You would think they were interviewing him but instead they're just showing Noam Chomsky's speech. And he didn't talk about Trump at all in it!

Is it just me, or does Chomsky, with his new hair style, look like Bozo the Clown?

Who is the host of democracy now? she looks like Ilse Koch The Witch of Buchenwald

Haha .... Ol' Noam looks like the teacher from Pink Floyd's The Wall here.

I would say Noam's hair looks look's a little ridiculous lol

Misleading title. 2015 speech

Speed up to 1.25 and he sounds normal lol

Chomsky looks like Grandpa from the Munsters

Pippi Longstocking?

Chomsky's legacies need to step up. He cannot do this forever.

Some may have this feeling, deep unconfortable feeling, that if we actually knew the whole dark, horrible facts of not merely "politics", but the facts of human happenings and events, the lies of history, the deception of propaganda, the hidden occurrences, normal people (whatever "normal" is) with a degree of empathy for the-other, would freak out. We would be so shocked and mesmerized, that we wouldn't know what to do, how to keep moving forward and be part of this world. Maybe most people, regular citizens, laypersons, governed subjects believe we live in a "democracy" and it is because we believe so, we are not prepared to see beyond. Maybe we actually have no power at all, maybe there is nothing, absolutely nothing we can do to change the state of affaires --- mainly because we do not know WHAT is going on (because complexity, secrecy, and the abundance of events happening at any given moment), where the "news" give us the false impression that we "know" what is going on, and where only a handful of people have the means to control and "govern". It is absurd to believe we are a democracy because we chose a few candidates every 4 years, candidates elected previously by an elite. The real ones who control things are hiding behind the politicians. Changes for the better do happen thanks to the effort and fight of many groups, but the real and overall change in a wholistic way cannot happen. Those in power do not want democracy, democracy not only in the sense of the governed deciding how to be governed, but as synonym of justice, "freedom", equality and bla-blá. It is a facade, an act. The Constitution is a set of laws made up by people who took over a big chunk of land, decimated millions, and build the country on slavery: How can we then believe we are "A nation under God"? Besides, hundreds of millions of people with different needs and desires cannot be governed by a unique, umbrela-central Government. It is just impossible. We live in a fantasy.

Good talk. But I wonder where Chomsky stands on defending the Frontier from Xur and the Ko-Dan Armada?

Listen to this guy you Americans. Do not be fooled by your power. He speaks the truth that is why you do not like to appreciate what he says.

Haha. WTF happened to his hair?

he talks a lot about trump...

what the hell is going on with his hair?

He looks like an undead mage

nothing less than the voice of reason

Next, he should investigate how and why Jews are under attack by MK Ultra.

If you want to hear the trump part skip to 15:25

Still love him though.
