Good one! I was thinking she was sucking on a pickle, but your take is EVEN BETTER.
America is finally standing up to those who sit down and kneel down.
One of them did stand and shout "You Lie!" regarding ObongoCare. He was immediately slammed as being racist to blunt the fact that he was absolutely correct if not discourteously so.
Trump’s alleged remarks about “sh**hole countries”, if he actually used those words, were not an insult directed at Africa. That is a false, politically-motivated fiction invented by democrats to play the race card and try to divide our country along racial lines. The countries that fall into that category are those with corrupt, inept governments, low standards of living, low educational levels, no real constitutional rights and rule of law, and serious environmental problems like air pollution and toxic waste dumps. Numerous countries all over the world fall into that category including many countries with populations that have a white majority in countries such as Russia, Romania, numerous countries in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, and several countries in the former Yugoslavia. There are also a few countries in Central and South America populated mainly by people of Spanish European descent that fall into this category, such as Venezuela.
That phrase, “sh**hole countries”, has no racial connotation and refers to countries that have serious problems and low levels of education and job skills, and corrupt governance. If we take a lot of people into America from those countries, then of course, America becomes more like those countries: poorer, less educated, less skilled, more corrupt, and more violent. That’s why, obviously, it’s not in America’s best interests to allow a lot of immigration from those countries. End of debate.
Just one last observation: some commodity traders use the phrase “sh**hole oil-producing countries” to refer to countries with corrupt governments that always continue to produce oil at maximum levels even when the market is over-supplied and prices are low. These countries over-produce at exactly the wrong time because corrupt government officials are skimming off the oil revenue and stashing it in personal bank accounts in Europe as fast as they possibly can. They just want to drain their nation’s oil out of the ground as fast as possible and skim off as much revenue as possible, with no regard for the economic future of their countries. These “sh**hole oil producers” are often a big part of the cause of crashes in oil prices and they have to be watched carefully by commodity traders.
I’m not sure exactly what the WaPo columnist was referring to by the word “performance.” It could be just the State of the Union speech, or it could be Trump’s entire presidency. The speech certainly was not cynical and divisive. It was exactly the opposite. Trump’s presidency has not been cynical and divisive either. He has slammed the news media repeatedly for fake news and bias, and he’s exactly right about that. The liberal news media is corrupt and biased and repeatedly adds their opinions into news reports as if their opinions are facts and news. The liberal news media people simply don’t understand that the news media has a huge lack of knowledge of important subjects such as economics, business, and science. Most people in the news media got college degrees in soft majors like Political Science (whatever that is), Psychology, and English. Most of them are very ignorant people whose positions on issues are determined primarily by just taking the opposite side of the positions held by much more knowledgeable conservatives.
It’s the WaPo, also known as the Washington Compost. He knew exactly what he was saying.
Libs are the domestic enemy of this Country.
A Dem and a journalist, at WaPo no less, who actually has a sense of shame. Take photographs, kids. That kind is nearly extinct.
