Try and you might -- nobody could make up a story like this.
The Leftists in the USA have totally lost their minds.

Anti-capitalist is the leftist media's word for socialist.

Comrade de Blasio doesn’t care about New York | New York Post
Comrade de Blasio doesn’t care about New York

Quote:
20 meeting now underway in Germany, it’s not unreasonable to wonder: Will he be wearing a Guy Fawkes mask today — or his Che Guevara T-shirt?

Didn’t he honeymoon in Havana, after all? Why yes he did!

No need to speculate about this much, though: Bill de Blasio, nee Warren Wilhelm Jr., happily will fly 3,807 miles to weep for the world. But he doesn’t give a damn about you.


He doesn’t care about you so profoundly that he won’t even pretend to care about you.

So as you start your workweek Monday by stepping around the subway junkies, and all the other de Blasio Administration platform detritus, your mayor will be sleeping off jet-lag from his latest silly effort to make himself a player with the international hard left.

Then there’ll be the ritual two-SUV jaunt to his Park Slope gym and then — maybe, if there’s time — a spot of work before lunch.

It’s good to be the Kaiser.

Especially a lucky Kaiser.

It really is true that a rising tide lifts all boats, and no boat has been hoisted higher than de Blasio’s by New York’s astonishing post-2008 economic expansion. The slow-motion foreign-cash tsunami that swept over the city during Mike Bloomberg’s latter years endures — guaranteeing de Blasio dough to buy labor peace and arming him with the big bucks needed to keep the city’s legion of special-interest pleaders at bay.

Consider this: The only City Hall demonstrations these days are staged by anti-cop cranks and other on-the-margin crazies. Everybody else is well-fed and relatively happy — and certainly not about to agitate for a new mayor, who might derail the gravy train.

This is why de Blasio, in his re-election year, sees no real opposition.

Lucky for Kaiser Wilhelm. Not so lucky for New York.

For while the city has no pressing need for cash right now, it desperately needs leadership — political and policy leadership of the morale-bolstering sort provided so emphatically by other mayors, in earlier times.

I saw on CNN how Trump's anti-globalist buddies burned cars in Hamburg.

I've seen this on the news as well.

Terrible. Terrible.

CNN's quick coverage said "protestors clashed" with Riot Police.

Drudge Report is merely an aggregator, which links to those exact same MSM sites.....

Paul Joseph Watson? The same guy whom the DNC paid to take down Gary Johnson in order to help the Hillary campaign?

Being anti-capitalist does not make you a socialist.

The US media often ignores Euro news, or any news that happens outside of the US.

Since when have they ignored anything that involved Trump?
