I am one of those Trumplets. I know a few things about dictators.
My great-grandparents were coerced by one of those nice G6 countries to move from one of their colonies to another colony. My great-grandparents built a reasonable life in their new surroundings and then the remainders of the colonialists beat and murdered people like family. My parents were lucky to be allowed to study in another of those G6 countries where because of our skin color we were marginalized and invited to leave. In our original country, a dictator financed and cajoled by the formed colonial power ruled for decades with their blessing while tolerating no dissension. Distant relatives were murdered.
In the oppression olympics my extended family are medal contenders.
America is the land of freedom. Trump is no dictator. He won an election. Equating him to a dictator is disrespecting all the people who have endured true dictatorships.
LOL. Interesting story. Which G6 country is this your great grandparents came from? Which of the G6 countries is a dictatorship?
How is US the piggy bank? Canada pays the tariffs on US goods. We don't pay them, so the claims about US paying 270% tariff to Canada is pure ignorance.
If Trump imposes new tariffs on imported goods, then US pays them. Its is a tax, which Americans will pay to the US government, so you people are demanding tax hikes on Americans, and you don't eve know it.
The Toyota RAV is the most popular Toyota in the USA.
Not a single RAV is produced in the USA. 60% made in Japan and 40% made in Canada.
How about the US increases the Tariff on a Toyota RAV to say 50% ....
What is your best guess on how long it remains the most popular Toyota in the USA?
What is your best guess on how long those Toyota Plants in Canada remain in business?
What is your best guess on how long it takes Toyota to open a RAV production line/plant in the USA?
Canada says in one sentence that they are against "Protectionism" and in the next sentence that they have the right to "protect" their dairy farmers. They don't consider that "protectionism", they consider it "management"
BUT ...... the USA is not allowed to do the same "management".
Eight years ago Obama supporters acted like he was the Messiah.
obama was the messiah because he was black the first black president, You could not say anything against him because it was not political correct. He could run the country into the ground and he still be treated like a king, because he was black.
it was like the emperor with no clothes, you wasnt allow to say anything bad because he was our first black president, and no not multi race but 100% black
Nobody I know that voted for Obama thought he was any sort of Messiah. Hell, most of the people I know who voted for him aren't even religious and are not in the habit of deifying anyone.
I only ever heard of his referred to that way by his detractors.
And you were allowed to say anything you wanted about Obama... freedom of speech. You just weren't allowed not to have other people judge you if you took pot shots at him due to his ethnicity.

You know, I am no longer surprised by any of the stupid crap that Trump does and says.
I really am not. I'm not sure I'll ever get over people proudly cheering him on for being an idiot, though.
