I suggest you run that last statement past the Nicaraguans, Danes, Palestinians, Mexicans, Canadians and Chinese.

 

I would hardly call the Chinese LIBERAL.

I think karma gives the UK two choices:

 

Become a colony of the US, or become a colony of India.

 

At the very least both would vastly improve the cuisine, and likely dental care, too. Oh, and maybe allow the inbred "royals" to keep one house, but sell off the other properties to Russian Oligarchs and help the National Debt.

 

US cuisine? Funny.

I don't think Trump cares what they think especially the communists in China.

Totally and utterly wrong.  The original was accurate!

With the exception of Russia and China only MAGAlomanics have your blinkered/brainwashed view.

Absolutely incorrect, that is only filtered through your conservative eyes, the entire world dislikes Trump, very very few people around the world like him, very few nations around the world like him, the nations around the world are pretending that he's acceptable in order to not incur his infamous wrath, and petty vendetta. 

 

But nearly everybody outside the US knows he's substandard and they knows he's the wrong guy for the job.

I understand that some people support some politics of Trump.

But who told you that you have to support all of his politics.

 

The current suggestions are just f@##ing mad! And this is obvious to everybody who is watching.

Do you really think Trump is playing some 10 dimensional chess only Trump understands? There is an easier explanation. He is mad!

You don't have to support all actions from a mad person even if you think some of his actions make sense. 

There is a degree of fealty that's required of his subjects and his supporters, and many of his supporters have lost all their objectivity to the point where discriminating between his policies, and supporting some and being against others just does not seem possible in that alternate universe. 

 

Georgi Dimitrov, one of the famed anti-fascist leaders of the 1930s, provided the beginnings of an answer:

 

“What is the source of the influence of fascism over the masses? Fascism is able to attract the masses because it demagogically appeals to their most urgent needs and demands. Fascism not only inflames prejudices that are deeply ingrained in the masses, but also plays upon the better sentiments of the masses, on their sense of justice and sometimes even on their revolutionary traditions. Fascism aims at the most unbridled exploitation of the masses but it approaches them with the most artful anti-capitalist demagogy, taking advantage of the deep hatred of the working people against the plundering bourgeoisie, the banks, the trusts, and financial magnates.”

 

Add to that the deep resentment that Trump supporters had toward law enforcement and the justice system, for going after their felonious master with such unbridled passion.

Maybe you don't know how industrious Mexicans are.  The USA has a surfeit of them and of offering pay and housing we could provide a million of them for 5 years and bam.  Done and rebuilt.  I always watch in awe in Arizona as they are working outside in that blistering heat and get <deleted> done.  😅
