Shots Fired at White House Correspondants Dinner

[cherokeetroy]

You're the only one saying that, something you want to tell us?

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Just curious about how far Trump worship goes

Carry on

[ANNEE]

Yes I do for the motive and sentencing, not why the perp tripped.

What a ridiculouus thing to try and make an issue of.

[andy06shake]

Our country hasn't been great for decades, tbh.

Rampant crime, high influx of illegal aliens, socialism overtaking our cities.

It's been pretty sucky, tbh.

It's called a late-stage democracy DB.

And it's a first-world issue, not just an American one.

As to socialism overtaking your cities.

Can't see how that holds up under scrutiny mate.

Your cities operate within a capitalist framework.

Private property, profit-driven businesses, and market-based housing dominate everywhere you look. 

Call me when full public ownership of industry disappears.

Or the central planning committees materialise, aka core features of socialism.

Because there's no mass nationalisation or central planning as far as i can see.

America is still a desirable place to live and reside.

At least comparatively speaking...

Let me reference you to Portland, Seattle, New York, for examples.

Let me reference you to Portland, Seattle, New York, for examples.

How are they socialist?

Because they actually have higher taxes and regulations?

Could it be the public spending?

All those places are still capitalist and market-driven towns and cities. 

The tech giants, big finance, and real estate dominate their economies.

How that equates to sociallium quite frankly mystifies me DB.

China is a socialist nation.

Cuba, Vietnam, North Korea are socialist nations.

Ffs, Laos might even tick the box.

But not the USA imho, where granted im just a foreigner looking in.

I do, however, have family and friends who hail from your shores.

And they are far from what i would term socialist by any manner or means...

Simple.

They have socialist mayors pushing for socialist agendas.

Not complicated.

Simple.

Not complicated.

Same places that rely on private markets, corporations, and profit-driven economies, which are hardly socialist traits.

Could it be because their mayors support reforms like housing policy and welfare programs?

Which by the way, are social-democratic, not socialism.

Again, no nationalisation or central planning exists in any of those cities.

No socialism, just common sense.

Need to bid you all a fair evening through.

Half-two on my end, and im up in less than six hours.

Good night, DI.

I usually agree with much of what you post and i do here,
However , there is no way in the present climate that The United States is a desirable place to live.
Ignorance is almost mandatory.

Where are you from?

Just more anti-American nonsense.

It must be shocking to you - but not all Americans agree with you.

Trump's disapproval percentage continues to rise.
