Absolutely! Antifa, Socialist Progs, and SJWs are Fascists (not Nazis) and they are hate groups. They also seem to believe that POC are not sufficiently competent to stand and compete on their own, so, yeah, you can say that Antifa and Socialist Progs are white supremists, too.

But, they've been growing in influence since long before Trump started into politics!

It' pretty obvious, from some of the responses to this question, that a lot of people share the same simplistic, unreasonable view of how what we do affects us, in the overall world picture. This philosophy of "The Hell with them, we are going to do what we want and what is best for us" may look good on paper, or on a rally stage, but all it does is paint America into a corner..........a very lonely corner.

Trump will find put very soon that his bullying tactics do not get him the results he wanted. We NEED other countries as much as they need us. We depend on them for many things, some tangible and some non tangible. He is going to find that when we need their cooperation on something that they are going to remember his actions and not be so willing to help us out as they once were.

We've all known "friends" who won't do anything for us, but they were always coming to us for favors. Just like we dumped them, the world is going to dump us, when they figure out we are fair weather friends and users.

Putin is pleased.
It's already happening. The American Empire was not going to last forever but for it to be dismantled so quickly is, quite frankly, shocking. The rest of the world is already moving on. Meanwhile, this board is mostly concerned about Obama, Hillary, and immigrants while their house gets dismantled around them - completely unaware.

Nothing says some of you freaks can't still get out your CC and send money to any organization of your choice OR sponsor a family abroad. We can't be the ATM for the world forever. Spending other people's money is like crack for the left.

Time for other Nations to step up their game.

I've mentioned before that when I get a customer at work from another country, I always say " So, let me ask you, what do you think of our new President ?" Lately, I have not had a lot of foreign customers, they seem to be staying away more this year. However, yesterday I had two gentlemen from Sweden, and I asked them that question.

The one man put his head down and walked away, and I said " I understand, some of us here feel the same way !" He then said, " We also have a clown as our leader, so we feel bad for you Americans."

Yep, Trump is respected all over the world !

How and when did so many Trump supporters become so bitter, so spiteful, so truly un-American, that they have chosen a lying, treasonous and racist slob over their own country? Was it 9/11? The recession? Were they just always this way and needed a spokesman to come out of hiding? We are witnessing tragedy and the destruction of everything America is and the only thing they can say is “good.”

They even put a little map beside Guardian article just to demonstrate how unpopular he is, although it's not all bad news, the confidence rating in Russia and some African states is on the up.

Of course they will say that crap. Trump doesn't just roll over for every world leader like Obama did. He is a tough negotiator, and puts his own country's interests first, which is his job.
