Trump Goes Fully Negative On Election Eve: ‘The World Hates Us'

Source: Talking Points Memo

In one of a handful of final campaign rallies before Election Day, Donald Trump painted a grim picture of the state of America, saying “the world hates us,” and promising his administration would catalyze a radical transformation of the country.

“This election will decide whether we are ruled by a corrupt political class—you’re seeing what’s happening, everybody’s watching—or whether we’re ruled by the people,” Trump began in Raleigh, North Carolina on Monday, marking the start of a largely fatalistic final pitch to voters in the state.

“The failed political establishment has delivered nothing but poverty, nothing but problems, nothing but losses. Nothing but losses, we don’t win anymore as a country,” he said. For much of the speech, Trump attempted to tie the mismanagement of foreign policy by “Hillary and her failed establishment” and the economic difficulties of his voters at home.

“Two things get me the most,” Trump said, after discussing the state of manufacturing in North Carolina. “Two numbers I don’t— It just doesn’t make sense. Twenty-two suicides a day for our veterans, it doesn’t make sense. And here’s another one: America has lost 70,000 factories since China entered the World Trade Organization.”

More to the point, if you are so worried about the loss of factory jobs in America, WHY IN FUCK IS THE ENTIRE IVANKA TRUMP LINE MADE IN CHINA? WHY WAS THE ENTIRE DONALD TRUMP SIGNATURE COLLECTION MADE OVERSEAS? (Well, except for the Trump Steaks line...but last I checked the horse tracks he was getting his livestock from were in the US.) If you're so worried about the American steel industry, why don't you use American steel in your buildings? I could go on but you get my point - Trump is a serious importer who's trying to get people up-in-arms about shit he's doing himself.

And why don't you pay your bills, Little Hands? Do you hate small businessmen so much you're willing to put them out of business to save yourself a couple of nickels?

Donnie, why do you hate the troops? The troops, the worshipful troops at whose feet you grovel in hopes they'll sprinkle Magic Troop Fairy Dust on your little head to cover up the absolute, undeniable fact you dodged the draft, need one thing more than anything: tax dollars, and a lot of them. You haven't paid taxes in years, Donnie. Why do you hate the troops?

Totally self-absorbed, believes only his own BS because he thinks
only he can fix it as he has said, manic depressive, half way to
dementia and autism and ADD ... the list never ends. No sense
of empathy, no sense of common sense and balance, just totally
warped. Bonkers, crazy, looney.

and inciting them. He loves to stir them up and he doesn't care about the consequences.

He is so full of himself that he is in a world where ,like he said, "I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?"

This man could drop bombs and think it's alright. He is a menace to the world.

He's one of the worst member of the 1% (if he's as wealthy as he claims to be).

He stops at nothing to try to enrich himself at the expense of the rest of us.

He doesn't care about entire populations losing a little more of their island to rising seawaters each year.

He doesn't care about rising global temperatures, more release of methane (10 times more damaging than CO2).

The world is not made of deplorables like his blind followers who know nothing about facts and how to inform themselves correctly.

And so many other abject things he says and does it would take me all night to enumerate.

He is a sorry excuse for a human being, that's all! The world will be a better place without that psychopath on TV each night!

Hasn't he harped on that a lot? I've heard his fans repeat it: that it's time America stops caring what the rest of the world thinks of us.



So which is it, Trumpers?

Your candidate's a mess.

About conversations he's had with Republican counterparts over time.

The other guy -- talking about Clinton's shortcomings as a retail politician -- was saying "Hillary just doesn't seem to like politics."

To which Axelrod replies, "No, it's just that she doesn't like you."

Self-awareness has never been an especially notable Republican virtue.

As epitomized in Donald Trump

http://www.alternet.org/election-2016/there-are-6-types-ugly-american-and-donald-trump-all-them


However, while there is widespread disapproval of Trump’s nationalist, protectionist and racist policies, it is his persona that most repels non-Americans. Trump is strongly disliked across the world because he is the archetypal “ugly American”: obnoxious, uncouth, boastful, materialistic, and duplicitous.
