As predicted by virtually everyone on the left, Trump's Israeli embassy move to Jerusalem is a gigantic disaster.

Let's look at some of Trump's other failures:

* Kim Jong Un is playing Trump led US like a rusty trombone.
* US economic growth continues to slow down from peaking in 2015 and 2017.
* Trump has shown terrible judgment. He has failed to hire the best people for the job, as he promised. He keeps firing everyone who he thought was good.
* Trump's budget is a disaster, the deficit is ballooning up to economic disaster levels (1 trillion)... only unlike 2008-2011 there is no economic disaster.
* He is unable to deal with crises in his own country, instead chooses to cry about how hurricane struck cities can't deal without electricity - like Puerto Rico.
* Is eroding the US's influence in the world with his anti-intellectualism - like when he rage-quit the Paris Climate Agreement for virtually no reason.

Who would have thought? Trump won't make America great again.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

No actual rebuttal. Well, I hope you enjoy the laptop/computer and the internet you're using thanks to capitalism. Tootles.

The internet, as you are using it today, with hyper text on this site, was created by Tim Berners Lee, was born in London, England, United Kingdom. He spent all his education in the UK, from primary school to university. 

The first computer was invented by Charles Babbage, another UK inventor, between 1833 and 1871. So everything you are using today is thanks for socialist education. 

The UK has been more socialist than capitalist in the past. Up until September 1998 there as no such thing as tuition fees!! You just needed the right marks to get into university. UK is more capitalist today, but again it still has a great public health care system, which the current government is doing its best to undermine.

You really should research things rather than sprouting such uninformed drivel.



A new shooting and the news that the ALICE(Asset limite, income constrained,employed) numbers of families is still high can't be that good news for Trump especially with economic growth and 'low unemployment numbers'

Even better is that Tim Berners Lee designed and developed the world wide web at CERN.  A scientific socialist utopia on the borders of Switzerland and France.

Sorry, but most people would agree capitalism created internet. Check the first answer. You depended on all the products captialism created to get internet started and even then it wasn't what it is now with corperations involved. Youtube, google, facebook, twitter, amazon, ect are all due to capitalism. Heck, the phone/computer you are using now is thanks to capitalism.

and inventors have created things for centuries before the uk education system, which led to our fundamental understanding of physics for example... what an incredibly stupid argument

This idea that Socialism/Communism can even work is flawed and downright impossible. The reason many college kids that I see tend to have more socialist tendencies is because they live in a perfect world in which everything is paid for by their parents and thus they don't have to worry about a thing. Once they experience the real world they'll quickly realize nothing is ever given to you for free and no person should ever take their possessions away from them. My cash and my belongings are mine, and no one is entitled to take them from me. Name for me one successful country in the world that implemented socialism/communism and wasn't reliant on the US for anything in foreign aid. Odds are, there are none, because there are no successful countries that implement it.

As for the second point, I fail to see how it's Trump's fault people go to court for stupid reasons. This falls in line with the point that humans are stupid and will do stupid things. Trump does it himself since he was CEO of a company and many people wanted a shot at his wealth (he can also be petty in other instances too, especially if the other said idiot crosses the line). There are many dumb cases that exist around the world, so I don't see how this is relevant. Feel free to rephrase, I just cant understand it.

I won't just give you 1 country, I'll give you 10. Here is a list of some of the most successful socialist countries in the world at the moment....

 

  • China
  • Denmark
  • Finland
  • Netherlands
  • Canada
  • Sweden
  • Norway
  • Ireland
  • New Zealand
  • Belgium

Everyone seems to forget just how successful an economy China has and its still a socialist/communist country. Both the IMF and the World Bank now rate China as the world’s largest economy based on Purchasing Power Parity (PPP), a measure that adjusts countries’ GDPs for differences in prices. In simple terms, this means that because your money stretches further in China than it would in the US, China’s GDP is adjusted upwards. It won’t be too long before China’s economy surpasses the US’s by other measures, too. 

I didn't say it is Trump's fault, I said Trump now has the power to change, remove and add laws to stop the crazy litigious aspects of US society as the current laws remove personal responsibility.

"Everyone seems to forget just how successful an economy China has and its still a socialist/communist country."

because china is in the process of hybridising capitalism with its past system of governance

and the rest of the countries you listed are capitalist countries with large social safety nets

He's doing a great job and he's a magician at trolling the left into shooting at their feet to get the mouse. He got Pelosi and others to defend an ultra-violent gang from being called animals for raping and chopping people's heads off.
