No more star for trump. This will keep me up at night...
Why Americans are so mad about Trump? I'm German, and I don't understand the hatred.
Start following American news and then maybe you will get it. Trump is a lying POS.
Basically because he's a racist, sexist, fascist, lying prick. Oh, and a complete wanker.
@Salo Well, I believe almost everyone is a racist to some extend. There is a simple test to prove this claim. Put some individuals in front of a screen device, put some brain-scanning helmets on their heads. Show pictures of different people. The proband will sympathize with the faces of the own race more than with the others. Maybe he is sexist, maybe even a pervert. Maybe non of them, just acting because he knows some people will like him for that. I can not prove any of these. But fascist? These is a serious claim there. And he is lying. I guess every politician is a liar. And you say he is a complete wanker. I think this is your own way to express your disgust. I am not a Trump fan. I just want to understand those who like him and those who hate him.
@GregFroh there is an ocean of difference between 'far-left' and 'fake'. Accusations of virtue signalling are normally regarded as an intellectual sounding attempt to belittle and ridicule somebody's good intentions and ethics. Smearing? 'Crooked' Hilary knows a story about that one. Im not American either, and the hatred seems entirely justified to me and many of my nationality.
@Salo opposite sides tend to fake news about their enemies. I accuse both, the far-right and the far-left. "Accusations of virtue signalling are normally regarded as an intellectual sounding attempt to belittle and ridicule somebody's good intentions and ethics." <- can you explain this in other words, I'm not a native speaker, and I am afraid I don't get this.
@Byrdsfan Why the comparisons and references to Hitler? I never heard Trump talking of committing a genocide. He will leave in two years. If you're unlucky, maybe in 6. It's not like he is going to establish a dictatorship like Erdogan. From what I see, he really wants to improve the economy in the US. This is the Part where I dislike him. Because he will sooner or later force Germany into contracts which probably have many downsides for us Germans. Who knows. And as I wrote before, opposing factions tend to fake news about their enemies. Or at least exaggerate. I personally don't like him for saying he has a good wire to god, when he was asked if he believes in god. He should stated his true believe. I think he is an atheist. I'm not 100% sure, but everybody knows, you can be a climate change denier, but you can not be an atheist to be elected.
@GregFroh From Wikipedia "In the late-2000s, many users on internet forums and social media gave "virtue-signalling" a pejorative sense when they denounced such empty acts of public commitment to unexceptionable good causes as changing Facebook profile pictures to support a cause, participating in the Ice Bucket Challenge, offering thoughts and prayers after a tragedy, celebrity speeches during award shows, and politicians pandering to constituents on ideological issues."
Trump needs a prison cell.
He'll just fire all the prison guards/judges/police etc.
I think Mueller is closing in on Trump. @TheGreatShadow
@nicknotes One can only hope.
