Turning The Ballot Box Against Republicans

What? Italians live in a **** hole country too! Trump only likes blond Norwegian women who have big tits and like to urinate all over him. (cynical)

I couldn't resist...

He's working as a ventriloquist, too: his ventriloquist's dummy was speaking in Munich today.

And the hand of globalists and Islamists are so far up Merkel's ass she stopped speaking for Germans long ago, if she ever did. She now runs an authoritative state and arrests and censors dissenters who only want to preserve their culture.

Really? Until today, arrest were done here by police. And until today, police was state affairs (besides the Federal Police).
Thanks for the update.

What is real is that your government is comprised of control freaks, driven by another bureaucracy with no concern for the individual.

Well, unfortunately in the current coalition government the conservatives are the majority.

Reality awaits. This not a blame game.

Hopefully the conservatives will notice that - I doubt, since they turn even more to the right than already before.

But thanks for your support!

Meanwhile we have Democrats doing everything possible to keep he flow of illegals coming into this country. These illegals threaten the minorities the Democrats claim to speak for. Fairly easy to see that. I guess it has to bite people again and again before they figure out they are exactly where the Democrats have put them.

How many of those in the EU?

Wasting your time Walter. This guy wouldent recognize a fact if it ran him down on one of our interstate highways. He only wants to argue and post what he thinks are intelligent comebacks. I quit paying anyattention to him long ago. Don't reply to him and a couple of posters that are just like him. He is a complete waste of time.

Better than posting rhetoric. And there is plenty to argue about. You are the one that shuts those down conservations. And relax, Walter has quite a low opinion of me and that's OK.

Is there anyone here that has a high opinion of you? (other than you, of course)

It doesn't matter. Kind of like you.

Someone asked "Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?"

Nate White, an articulate and witty writer from England, wrote this magnificent response:

"A few things spring to mind.

Trump lacks certain qualities which the British traditionally esteem.

For instance, he has no class, no charm, no coolness, no credibility, no compassion, no wit, no warmth, no wisdom, no subtlety, no sensitivity, no self-awareness, no humility, no honour and no grace - all qualities, funnily enough, with which his predecessor Mr. Obama was generously blessed.

So for us, the stark contrast does rather throw Trump’s limitations into embarrassingly sharp relief.

Plus, we like a laugh. And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing - not once, ever.

I don’t say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility - for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman.

But with Trump, it’s a fact. He doesn’t even seem to understand what a joke is - his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty.

Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers.

And scarily, he doesn’t just talk in crude, witless insults - he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness.

There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It’s all surface.

Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront.

Well, we don’t. We see it as having no inner world, no soul.

And in Britain we traditionally side with David, not Goliath. All our heroes are plucky underdogs: Robin Hood, Dick Whittington, Oliver Twist.

Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that.

He’s not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat.

He’s more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege.

And worse, he is that most unforgivable of all things to the British: a bully.

That is, except when he is among bullies; then he suddenly transforms into a sniveling sidekick instead.

There are unspoken rules to this stuff - the Queensberry rules of basic decency - and he breaks them all. He punches downwards - which a gentleman should, would, could never do - and every blow he aims is below the belt. He particularly likes to kick the vulnerable or voiceless - and he kicks them when they are down.

So the fact that a significant minority - perhaps a third - of Americans look at what he does, listen to what he says, and then think 'Yeah, he seems like my kind of guy’ is a matter of some confusion and no little distress to British people, given that:
* Americans are supposed to be nicer than us, and mostly are.
* You don't need a particularly keen eye for detail to spot a few flaws in the man.

This last point is what especially confuses and dismays British people, and many other people too; his faults seem pretty bloody hard to miss.

After all, it’s impossible to read a single tweet, or hear him speak a sentence or two, without staring deep into the abyss. He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of ****. His faults are fractal: even his flaws have flaws, and so on ad infinitum.

God knows there have always been stupid people in the world, and plenty of nasty people too. But rarely has stupidity been so nasty, or nastiness so stupid.

He makes Nixon look trustworthy and George W look smart.

In fact, if Frankenstein decided to make a monster assembled entirely from human flaws - he would make a Trump.

And a remorseful Doctor Frankenstein would clutch out big clumpfuls of hair and scream in anguish:

'My God… what… have… I… created?

If being a twat was a TV show, Trump would be the boxed set."

I have a high opinion of Coldjoint.

Have you seen Italy's excuse for a justice system?

Even a third-world hellhole would be embarrassed with that.

Yet, Italy is still much more humane than Trump's US handling of people seeking sanctuary at our borders. Where is your outrage of over that? You are the hellhole here...

Italy has saved thousand of lives taking in refugees up to this point.

Italy's new far-right government has just started turning away refugees.

How about Trump's inhuman "injustice" system separating these children from their parents as some sort of terror payback for needing help?

These people are fleeing their countries because our corporations have ravaged their natural resources for decades, bribed their public officials like they have bribed republican senators here in the US and then left a vacuum for criminal elements to come into the vacuum left by US induced poverty and drive the few remaining good people out who played by the rules. These are families, students and "children" who have been separated and put in jails and cages...

And you have the audacity to point a finger at Italy?! It is your Trump party that has treated our neighbor in such a racist, barbaric and inhumane way.

Free trade includes bribing your republican senators?

The republican's party's days are numbered... They can not be gone soon enough.

Spare me your pompous fake outrage. Italy is a third world hellhole and a blight on humanity.

And yes, I do have the audacity to say it.

It is what you don't say about Trump that shows you are a fake political hellhole yourself.

Italy will do fine but the republicans are headed for disaster.
