Yeah, 300 million Americans should continue to guard 500 million Europeans until the end of time.

And besides, when terrorist were attacking all over the world, what were they doing?

That's pretty funny.
Europeans saying they must "take their destiny into their own hands". WHO THE HELL did they think was in charge of their destiny? -

There is something WRONG with those people.

He bet on the fact that the white underclass in the US hate blacks, Mexicans, Muslims and Obama more than they love America thus we have Trump in the White House. Sad part is that Trump's supporters are going to lose the most and I can not find much sympathy for them due to their constant vitriol.
Democrats have been undermining Blacks and Latinos for years by keeping they in them in slavery with handouts.

And I certainly don't see how Trump isn't a globalist, especially when it comes to securing his own financial interests- the only other thing he cares about besides stroking his ego.
What a fantasy land you live in. How pink are the unicorns there?

I thought everyone knew this? I mean...this is a political forum. Its been discussed before.
The last time the Senate passed a budget was April 29, 2009.

If what you said were half way true, which it isn't, why are democrats so concerned about Trump's budget proposals.

OK. I made it as far as here and had to stop.

Haven't gone any further but in case this hasn't been posted yet, Poland is refusing refugees even under the threat of EU sanctions. Also telling Europe to get off their knees or they will be crying over their children every day.
