Be an ignorant sexist because the president of the US is one as well.
    Liberals can't stand him, the right pwned the "left". Now there is a man who is clearly losing his mind in the White House, giving lethal suggestions for cures. Economy is fcuked, mass unemployment, the US no longer a world leader actually a laughing stock. His idiocy is broadcast for hours each night at his press briefing where he can't even answer a question from a journalist with out losing his temper.

    Not so funny now really.

    ruining the country to own the libs. the alt right really are idiots.

    The left in the US has always been alternative, because there is no mainstream left.

    Still better alternative to Clinton, and still would be better than Biden.

    The economy is ****ed globally, you are hardly going to blame trump for that?

    you can certainly blame trump for his late and inadequate response which has made a bad situation much worse than it needed to be. not to mention his promotion of "cures". i cant imagine clinton or biden handling a press conference as badly as trump has. he is an awful human being and a terrible president.

    Trump has proven time and time again that he is never the better choice. He's entirely incompetent and tends to make situations worse.

    I don't think the costs of the pandemic can be blamed on him, but his handling of it can be, despite him saying he bears no responsibility. I am surprised conservatives in the US aren't kicking up a fuss about the massive socialised spending.
    The problem is the US had already massively increased their deficit and national debt before the virus was a thing. Lowering taxes was a popular move, but getting further into debt to do it is the exact opposite of being fiscally conservative.

    Doubt Hilary Clinton would be telling people to ingest bleach.
    Trump said it was a hoax and that it would just disappear.

    Name one thing Trump has done that's worse than Hillary Clinton standing by/providing cover for her paedophile husband. The disaster wasn't Trump being elected-it was that the choice was one of those two.

    But like, that was obviously a joke.. So you're either being disingenuous, or you're fairly dim, and have no sense of humour or nuanced speech...

    When Trump stopped flights from China he was a racist..

    Jesus Christ, people have me arguing for Trump again.. the reason he got in was the level of actual argument has been dragged down to this remedial surface bull****..

    The I was being sarcastic defence, Trump likes that one, and the blaming Obama or it would be worse if Clinton one.
    So much for personal responsibility.


    Who called trump racist for stopping flights from China?

    Well, Biden did..Pelosi went to Chinatown with the press..

    Like, are you seriously saying you thought he was being serious suggesting people drink disinfectant?.. Like, seriously?..

    Because, tbh, that casts you in a worse light than yer man..

    Because trump kept calling it the China virus, Chinese people were getting abuse and restaurants were being boycotted. The trump supporters don't know the difference between a Chinese American and a person coming from an infected region is China. A lot of them think China spread the disease on purpose for some reason. Biden and Pelosi showed support for the Chinese community in the US.

    Apologies he said inject it not drink, don't think that makes it any better.


    And then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning?

    Can tell from the image it's just some grifter cashing in on low intelligence trump supporters.

    I'm not. They don't really believe in anything except personal gain. They will abandon anything else they profess to believe in favour of it. Massive socialised spending is only a problem if somebody else does it. Running up the debt, interfering with personal freedoms, legislating from the bench, disrespecting the law and law agents, welfare handouts, all of these things are absolutely fine when they do it. Consider how many conservatives fixated on Obama as some tyrannical cartoon dictator but delight in the idea of Trump as a strongman king.

    As a movement American conservatism has shown itself to believe in absolutely nothing except as a passing means to an end. If and when a Democrat is president next, you can be sure they'll suddenly remember how evil socialised spending is.

    I googled his name.
    Total homophobe.

    There a template for it now.

    1. Skirt on the edges of racism and homophobia, don't be explicit just enough for plausible deniability. "It's ok to be white" the ok symbol" "It's ok to be straight". The dog whistle is sent and they can deny it after.

    2. Then total support for alt right talking points, insert them into any situation.

    3. Slag off the "libs" use extreme examples and apply them to them all.

    It's the alt rights favourite thing, sell them vitamin pills, t shirts or whatever.

    If you are gay or a minority even better (Milo and this fella), they can be cover, hey look he's black and thinks the same as us.

    Meanwhile the grifters are cashing in.

    There is no equivalent of this on the left.
    It works great with the right though.

    I'd be embarrassed sharing such obvious trash myself of course, but the right think these folks are intellectuals lol

    If you weren't so bizarrely infaturated with right-wing "grifters" you wouldn't have to pose such a ridiculous question. Feminism is left wing as all the main academics, musicians/actors and media that shove feminism down our throats are left wing. Try show up to next years Woman's March wearing a pro-life top and see how you get on.
