considering where trumps intelligence is placed far more smarter does not mean too much. there are intelligent democrats for sure but based on what i have seen/heard of aoc, her ideas and her analysis and responses as well as comments personally have to say she is not too bright, photogenic yes.

And consider that of the "Squad" she is clearly the smartest one of the bunch. I don't think Trump is Tucker level intelligent, but his intelligence is vastly underrated because of his combative, prole style. Consider that in these past two days he has successfully made their four least popular members of Congress the face of the Democratic Party.

Trump is a corrupt conman and vicious pedo.  Yet you're happy to deflect on his behalf.  Most of America knows Trump to be a pathological liar, coward, and complete moron.  Why are you still kissing his ass?   

Most of America? Seems he's on his way to reelection.

“four least popular members of Congress”

 

Where is your evidence for that statement? An online poll at Breitbart?

In America you would be branded a racist because you called them "colored women" instead of "women of color." That's how crazy it is in America. But of course they have every right to mock you as an "old white guy."

Absolutely no offense taken by this old white guy, who is gently amused by your post. Yes I can't possibly keep up with the acceptable terminology in the US, although I can spell colour correctly!!

 

I am in regular receipt of ribbing from my friends regarding my age, and they still have all their teeth in their original configuration. In Scotland very few people apart from the tiny racist minority give a tuppeny monkeys what colour anyones skin is, it's just not an issue. We really need immigrants (Demographic problems) and appreciate that they have chosen to join us.

You spend your time trolling a website for people living on the other side of the world from you?  As Trump would say: "SAD!"
 
I lived in Thailand for 12 years, but family concerns recently forced me back to the US.  I hope to return to Thailand in the near future, and I stay abreast of things in Thailand through TV, Line, and FB. 
 
I can assure you that in the US people who care about the future of the country are somewhat obsessed about the incompetent in the White House.

So it’s your position that anyone supporting Trump do not care about the future of the United States?

Just a chart for those foaming-at-the-mouth America bashers claiming the United States is the most xenophobic, racist country on earth.

Can I ask what part of the US you live in?

Without regard to the correct spelling of COLOR, I do agree that the color of one's skin should not be an issue; however, I have become fond of the popular placement of the adjective describing one's characteristic to reflect light. So now, as I sit in my tiny room, typing with pigmentless, arthritic fingers, I declare to the world, from this day forward, that we are not to be called "old white guys." We are to be called "old guys of whiteness"

Your premise is wrong because you are equating distaste for the xenophobic policies of this administration as distaste for America.

Trump is most avowedly NOT America. He is a temporary accidental dog dropping stuck on the underside of America’s shoe, with the connivance of Putin, allegedly and the last, desperate cry of a dying racist homophobic misogynist electorate.

Accidental? That's funny....it seems he was elected, and is quite possibly on his way to being re-elected.

Another chart proving the Trump-haters right. Just a nation full of right-wing, white nationalist, immigrant haters.....oops....on closer look...maybe they left. They've obviously moved to the countries lower on the list.

Ironically I used to be a classic 70s liberal. SJWs changed all that. Therefore, I'd throw this back at you.

 

Used to be the vanguard now I'm opposition. Even held a union card and position.

I hate to tell you 6er, but you just followed along with the whole boomer generation. 70s you thought you were "liberal"... turns out as you aged you were just classic conservatives. And no, you are not the opposition, you are firmly the entrenched establishment.

No, a large majority of the American electorate did not vote for Trump so this result is not surprising at all. It means sanity still has a majority.

Financially, you are correct. But for the people that have nothing the red meat is important.

 

Let's face it, those four women have been stirring up shit on the Dem side as well. Rocking Pelosi. They ain't gonna get shit acting like that. This ain't the 70s. The power is entrenched so deep. Their just babes in the woods. Pelosi recently called them out on it. Lots of blah blah, no votes. Go away children

Has history taught you nothing about opposing "power that is entrenched so deep"? Or are you just OK with the richest most powerful nation the world has ever seen falling way behind other developed nations in terms of how it looks after its people and the opportunities it affords them?

ALL presidents who squeak by on very narrow electoral college wins and who lost by wide popular margins, have, by definition, no popular mandate. They are accidental, the proof being, it has only happened very, very rarely,

Well  your chart does nothing to prove your point. Date of data? Comparing TOTAL immigration of countries with wildly varying population numbers is just stupid. Percentage by population and cited current data would provide the chart you are looking for.

Not all Trump supporters are racist.

But all racists are Trump supporters.

And it is clear from this forum, quite apart from anywhere else, that Trump himself is a racist, if only from the extreme (And generally ludicrous) contortions that his supporters have to adopt to deny it.

And, btw, you are addressing my argument by picking on the word “accidental?” And ignoring the main point that your premise is flawed at its core?

The fatal dose of cannabis is about 3/4 kilo of resin. The fatal dose of LSD is hard to determine, as it's effect is on the mind not the body, but it would be huge. The fatal dose of Heroin would be fairly low, and for alcohol (A similar drug) it is about 1 to 1 1/2 bottles of spirits on an empty stomach. Tripling up on an LSD dose would not end it all - poor example!

 

Wow....you're so literal. I concede.

Setting up straw men much? Who says that? What is said is that Donald Trump plays to xenophobia and racism. And that chart shows how many immigrants are now in the USA. What it doesn't show is whether or not legal immigration has declined under Trump. What do you think?
