| Oh look, a thread for people who don't understand that the entire world is basically standing up to Trump and his anti-trade, protectionist, "America first" bullsh*t, but want to clutch their pearls about the antifa type protesters who are pissed that Trump doesn't give a f*ck about the environment or generally being a good human being, so they riot. You people are IDIOTS. You do understand the as a result of Trump's ineptitude and staff who have no idea what they're doing, we could spark a trade war. You like cheap sh*t at Walmart? These stupid actions have real world ramifications. Of course you don't get that or care |

So much winning. Our allies will respect us again. HAMBURG, Germany — For years the United States was the dominant force and set the agenda at the annual gathering of the leaders of the world’s largest economies. But on Friday, when President Trump met with 19 other leaders at the Group of 20 conference, he found the United States isolated on everything from trade to climate change, and faced with the prospect of the group’s issuing a statement on Saturday that lays bare how the United States stands alone. Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, the host of the meeting, opened it by acknowledging the differences between the United States and the rest of the countries. While “compromise can only be found if we accommodate each other’s views,” she said, “we can also say, we differ.” Ms. Merkel also pointed out that most of the countries supported the Paris accord on climate change, while Mr. Trump has abandoned it. “It will be very interesting to see how we formulate the communiqué tomorrow and make clear that, of course, there are different opinions in this area because the United States of America regrettably” wants to withdraw from the pact, she said. Mr. Trump seemed to relish his isolation. For him, the critical moment of Friday was his long meeting with the Russian president, Vladimir V. Putin, which seemed to mark the reset in relations that Mr. Trump has been desiring for some time. It also provided Mr. Putin the respect and importance he has long demanded as a global partner to Washington. Where previous American leaders saw their power as a benevolent force, and were intent on spreading prosperity through open markets and multilateral cooperation, Mr. Trump has portrayed himself as a nationalist, a unilateralist and a protectionist, eager to save American jobs. What recent events have underscored, though — and especially at the G-20 — is that no nation is today large or powerful enough to impose rules on everyone else. In advancing his views, Mr. Trump has alienated allies and made the United States seem like its own private island. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/07/world/europe/trump-g-20-trade-climate.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=b-lede-package-region®ion=top-news&WT.nav=top-news |

Not to mention the hell of Seattle https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999_Seattle_WTO_protest The Hell of LA after Rodney King Also the hell Ferguson, Baltimore, Charlotte, Milwaukee, etc after police shootings The hell of Portland after Trump's election The hell of Washington DC, among many other cities after his Inauguration Again the hell of DC (and NYC)after the Muslim Ban Disgusting, indeed, that the common thread in recent incidents, besides police brutality protests, is POTUS. Hamberg's a nice place. It's a shame that America is inflicting Trump and all the chaos and misery that surrounds him, on Germany. But sure, let's blame Hamburg, rather than the idiot tweeting about it how the biggest thing going at the G-20 is not the protests over his pulling us out of the Paris Accords and his anti-globalization, but rather the buzz about John Posesta not turning over the DNC servers, which were not his to turn over, to the CIA, which did not request them. Also, is it possible that you live in the DMV and are not aware that the G-20 always draws mass protest and riots-- in London, in Pittsburg, in Toronto? Similarly, NATO meetings, the WTO, etc? |

Because a lot of the posters here are not from DC or are probably parents at all. They're probably dumb f*ck flyover state folks who have never traveled, don't speak other languages, but somehow stumbled on to this forum. They are definitely not smart. |

| The fact that they are rioting in Hamburg once again illustrates the fact that contrary to what conservative media keeps spewing, this isn't about "violent Hillary supporters" or "identity politics liberals" here in America. These are Europe's own home grown black bloc anarchists and ANTIFA protesters, having nothing to do with Hillary or Democrats. |

Could you please stop with the idea that everybody who lives on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts is smart and cosmopolitan, and everybody who lives in between is a dumb hick? I know for a fact that neither is true, and you should know this, too. |

Whoever voted for Trump is an idiot. |

And yet, the rust belt and the Midwest and the Deep South are bright red swaths of Trump country. And since they decided to inflict Trump on the rest of us, I am not particularly interested in pretending that many of them are anything except stupid racists who have very nasty things to say about the "educated liberal elites" who live on the Coasts. And I know for a fact this is true. Because I got an education and got out of one such place. But still have to go back to the land of MAGA hats to visit family. And it takes a lot of nerve to bash those of us who did get an education and become a "liberal elite" while simultaneously being pissed off that we don't treat flyover country racists with kid gloves. |

Smart enough to get a President elected and to politely tell you to Verpiss dich, vete a tomar por culo and va te faire foutre. |
