The UN laughing at Trump, we all know what happened to the last guy that laugh at Trump.

Trump set out and started a movement and when that didn't work he become President just to undo everything he did

Which part is a lie? The US doesn't care about democracy or peace. Is this even debatable?

The role of the US is to keep countries poor and help those when it is in its interest through institutions like the IMF and World Bank. And NATO and its military to plunder and murder hundreds of people in countries that resists the pillage of their people and resources.

I'll add a quote to back what I'm saying:
Tightly packed into the language of economics- which the book will attempt to demystify - is the incontrovertible fact that rich countries got rich because for decades, often centuries, their states and ruling elites set up, subsidized and protected dynamic industries and services. They all emulated the most prosperous countries at the time, bringing their productive structures into those areas where technological change was being focused. In this way they created rents (a return above normal income) that spread to capitalists in the form of higher profits, to labor in the form of higher wages, and to governments in the form of higher taxes.
...
rich countries have all moved through a stage without free trade, which - when successful - subsequently made free trade desirable.This mandatory passage point in the history of all presently developed countries - allowing poor countries to emulate the economic structures of rich countries- is currently outlawed.
Erick Reinert
The is why those countries that don't follow orders get coups(the most recent are Honduras, Venezuela), or soft coups like (Brazil), wars (middle east), trade war (China).

This is what it is all about: Exploitation of people and natural resources. So yes, Morales is right when he says the US doesn't care about democracy or human rights. An said it to their face.

oooof!

"You're always innocent until proven guilty..... and it's such a beautiful phrase"


from the man that encouraged the "lock her up" chant at his rallies!


that was painful. the man avoids concise comprehensive answers like the plague. it's complete rambling. if i was a trump supporter i wouldn't be linking to that clip.

I think he is entertaining himself half of the time.
Infants do that, too, by playing with their toes.

Trade, jobs, winning, Trump provides so much great information that’s not covered on the “news.” Sometimes he doesn’t answer a question directly on point, but very few politicians do so.

Easily; they’re not mutually exclusive, and he’s got quite the team of enablers at his disposal.

A complicit Congress who is aiding/abetting this trainwreck. Anyone else behaving in the manner would have been run out of town. I lived through Nixon, albeit I was young. This is just amazing and not the Oprah kind of AAAH-MAYY-ZING!
