Thats pretty logical, honestly. It’s what I always tell Democrats. The one where he tells 3 native-born women (who happen to be brown) to go back to the countries where they came from? And the moron literally ran on a plank of "Make America Great Again." The intention of the tweet was clearly to point out the supposed hypocrisy of their trying to fix America with socialist policy, not to express hatred for brown women. But the socialist policies they want are the ones from Scandinavia and other European countries, not Latin America. It doesn’t make any sense, just plays on their heritage being different.

 Re: The Trump Era: The Awkward Mix of Libertarianism and Fas
But a hypocritical part of the Dems side is that saying “the migrants deserve a chance at a better life” is basically the same as saying “their countries are shitty and ours is better.” Then when Trump or another Pub says the unparaphrased version of that in defense of their case it is labeled racist immediately. I think that, though its unfair, worrying that immigrants will make our country more like the ones they are fleeing is a legitimate issue that people are concerned about and it could be addressed without calling everybody racist. Trump is a racist though.  Or is at least comfortable exploiting it for his own benefit. Not just because of the comment but the ranting and raving he’s done to defend himself in the time since. And a lot of other things he’s said...

 Re: The Trump Era: The Awkward Mix of Libertarianism and Fas
Quote: Two weeks after taking office, Trump sat down for an interview in which he was reminded that Russian President Vladimir Putin is “a killer.” Trump replied, “There are a lot of killers. We’ve got a lot of killers. What, do you think our country’s so innocent?”
Indeed, he hasn’t exactly been subtle on this point. In December 2015, then-candidate Trump was asked about Putin’s habit of invading countries and killing critics. “He’s running his country, and at least he’s a leader,” Trump replied, “unlike what we have in this country.” Reminded that Putin has been accused of ordering the murder of critics and journalists, Trump added, “Well, I think our country does plenty of killing also.”
In a July 2016 interview with the New York Times, the Republican went on to argue that the United States lacks the moral authority to lead, because we’re just not a good enough country to command respect abroad. “When the world looks at how bad the United States is, and then we go and talk about civil liberties, I don’t think we’re a very good messenger,” he said. http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/the-wrong-messenger-trump-targets-those-who-speak-badly-the-us

There is a trade-off. Maybe time to cut down on the military industrial complex?

The way you worded it makes it sound like she is from Spain. Same sentence substituting Spanish for English would also be wrong, as the British wouldn't also appreciate the honor of someone saying AOC is from the UK. They already have enough morons over there.

He didn't say who the tweet was about so it could have been real people in congress from another country not AOC and co. But he is an obvious racist trash bag either way. I mean he was a birther

Canada, Germany, Japan, and the UK are populated countries and each has some form of universal healthcare system with public insurance. Their systems are more cost-saving than the US partly due to economies of scale. They reduce overhead expenses by cutting down the middlemen and streamlining the link between healthcare providers and patients.

Love this post. Every single issue really boils down to old white dudes who are scared of anyone except them having power over all. And the younger white dudes who know they'll be old white dudes someday and maybe not have the same power and it scares them. And then women and POC who, for some reason, think it's better when old white dudes have all the power.

 Re: The Trump Era: The Awkward Mix of Libertarianism and Fas
After looking closer... The left is defending Omar almost entirely based on the color of her skin, and Trump is criticizing her based on her words. So how is this about how racist Trump is?

I'll defend every policy of hers. You hate 9/11 first responders? You hate immigrants? You hate a minimum wage increase?
Which policy of hers do you think is racist?

Which policy of hers do you think is racist? I'm saying the real reason Trump is attacking Omar and AOC is he thinks they're Islam and communist respectively and therefore he believes they hate and want to change what America stands for. Islam violates nearly all the American amendments and AOC if she had her way would upend capitalism You can claim that Trump is still bigoted for being an Islamophobe or he's going too far with his characterization of AOC as a communist. But whether Islamophobia is justified is more complicated than just saying orange man is racist and wants brown people to go back to their country. The people making everything about skin colour are the left again and again

 Re: The Trump Era: The Awkward Mix of Libertarianism and Fas
Also, his crowd, which he riled up, was chanting "send her back". Like... the fuck? How can anyone say that's not racist? What a joke.
Also, capitalism is a joke. You can't have free market capitalism, it destroys lives. It's literally killing the planet, and you know who dies first? The poor. Third world nations. Coincidentally, those countries just happen to be filled with people of color.

 Re: The Trump Era: The Awkward Mix of Libertarianism and Fas
I agree that capitalism has flaws and many but...
What kind of governments do most third world nations have? Socialist and communist ones. Which nations did absolutely nothing to fight against pollution? The ones with socialist and communist governments. In Europe that was clearly visible after the fall of the Iron Curtain. Which nations are the ones that kill most of there own inhabitants? The former USSR, Cambodia, Rwanda, Eritrea, ... Hmmmm, hardly capitalistic at all. People that abandon their countries are usually from nations with what type of governments? I think you can fill the blanks now. And which nation is the one that most of them try to enter? The most capitalistic one. So don't go all hyperbolic because it makes you look even more like a tin foil hat wearer.
