Because bernfags and liberals in general are pure cancer. they do nothing except trying to kill free speech, ruin the wests culture, ruin the economy, and take away our freedoms because they are uncomfertable. They never argue or do something instead they sit and moan and cry and scream there buzzwords at people. They need to go. Also not to mention that they are racists, sexist, and delusional.

Really not in the mood to explain the difference between Socialism and Communism, or how it's capitalism that has brought our economy to ****, and how things like tax cuts are just making it worse. Or maybe how balancing out a finite resource would help to fix things like our crumbling infrastructure or education which mind you everything that has been funding both hasn't been adjusted for inflation for years, and more to come.

Instead I'm just going to compliment you on the combination of the name Bernie and a slur. Bernfag is a very colorful term.  

Capitalism didn't bring our economy to **** you ******. What bough our evonomy to **** is incompetent leaders who sign deals like NAFTA that takes all our manufacturing jobs away and sends em overseas and allows other nations to bully us and give us abysmal trade deals where we get ****ed in the ass. The US is the bully that gets bullied.

Maybe I haven't scrolled back far enough in the chat, but since there are some Trump supporters here: how do you genuinely feel about the John Oliver segment on Trump? I've looked around the internet, and it doesn't seem there are many negative reactions to it besides his Drumpf campaign, and how it may be anti-immigrant.

While it is a satirical show, Oliver provides a lot of cited sources to prove his points against Trump are true. What would be your response to his claims?

He uses politifact that is a democratic shilling site for bernie sanders. Also he is a bernie shill. notice hoe he never EVER mentioned bernies real name Benard Gutman before Bernie changed it. Also the fact that the 106 page financial trump put in which is public goes against all of the things John Oliver said about him financially.

A load of ****

It's Trump supporters like you that give them a bad name. Stop acting like a **** and calling people names. Can't believe you're supposedly 19. Grow up and educate yourself so you don't look so idiotic next time.

Capitalism is evil, guys.

Communism is proven to work.

I don't think John Oliver is for Bernie. But I'm not entirely sure. A lot of his topics are about corporate greed and the middle class so it is possible though.

Capitalism can work. I'm not denying that. But it's modern day capitalism that has brought the economy and job market to ****.

Infact Sander's isn't proposing we get rid of Capitalism, or that we make the country a Socialist one. It's weird how these companies have been given so much free room to grow and in turn it screws up our own government. Why are we giving the ones who can afford tax the tax cuts? That's a lot of money wasted. The socialism Bernie wants would give money towards those who actually need it. It has nothing to do with welfare or any of that **** either.

No one here supports communism. Good conversation tho.  

You sure about that?

Lot of anti-capitalist sentiment swirling around, I'd shiver to think what you guys really want.

And also, when hasn't capitalism ended up costing a ton on the economy? Hell its the most complex form of economy, no **** things are going to be bad at times.

But going with the "OOOOH CAPITALISM IS EVIL, IT'LL CONSUME YOUR SOUL." is a load of crap that I don't buy.

The system is never at fault, its the people who created the system to begin with who should really be in focus.

That's what this is about, like I had said in my previous post. Modern day capitalism isn't working. Money isn't a finite resource, and if we aren't taxing those who hold the most, how will the government be able to sustain itself? It's just going to give the Capitalists more and more money. It's never going to stop for them. What it's about is getting the government back on it's feet by fixing what Obama was too afraid to fix himself for whatever reason.  

Donald Trump on Wednesday delivered a major foreign policy speech in Washington, laying out his vision for a foreign policy that will put "America first."

Trump opened his speech Wednesday vowing to "shake the rust off America's foreign policy" and said he would outline a vision for a U.S. foreign policy "that replaces randomness with purpose, ideology with strategy and chaos with peace."
He added, "My foreign policy will always put the interests of the American people and American security first."

That's a Kreygasm right there

"We're going to be working very closely with our friends in the Muslim world, which are all at risk for violent attacks," he said. His comments on Muslims and Middle East partners have been lightning rods throughout the campaign.

But he added that these countries also need to acknowledge America's contributions.
"This has to be a two-way street," he said. "They must also be good to us. It's no longer one way, it's two way."

Oh baby

Trump vowed not to enter into any international accords that would reduce the U.S.'s "ability to control our own affairs."
"Under a Trump administration, no American citizen will ever again feel that their needs come second to the citizens of a foreign country," Trump said.

And he laid out stringent circumstances under which he would deploy U.S. troops into combat.
"I will not send our finest into battle unless necessary -- and I mean absolutely necessary," Trump said. "And I will do so only if we have a plan for victory with a capital V."

Capital V boys

And yet our economy is still deep in ****. Funny how that works, isn't it?

The projected growth as of a few months ago looked pretty good actually, despite what the hivemind is trying to tell everyone.

In deep compared to who?? China? Sweden? The UK? We're better off and increasing than all of these places. All of their GDP growth rates are stagnating or going down right now. When you tell me we're all boned and our economy sucks, I take a look at stuff like this and I have to wonder how you reach this conclusion??

I don't get how you can stare at this exponential GDP graph and tell me "yep the economy sucks" when GDP is probably the most important factor in how the economy as a whole "is".

Income inequality and things like that are a different story, if that's what you were referring to.

Because Capitalism is about profit. That's how our entire country is run. Profit. The money just keeps going in the pockets of billionaires.

Well that was hilarious. I only wish Jon Stewart was still on CC during this election. Most Trump supporters who are reasonably informed with politics usually know most of the attacks on him. For his "failed businesses" that doesn't matter. Businesses fail all the time, but the parent corporation hasn't failed. I thought it was stupid of him not to condemn David Duke, but he did later, which really didn't matter at that point. I think he doesn't want to condemn someone who wants to vote for him. Which I honestly understand. He never brought it up nor wanted to, but he does want every vote he can get. My honest reason for looking past all the **** Trump says and does is that it's the politicians' fault. They've done nothing for decades and put themselves and us in this position where I'm voting for President because I think that thus person is a risk I'm willing to take. If I'm willing to vote for someone whk I think is a gamble, it just shows how desparate America is. It has much less to do with Trump himself, rather, the politicians and establishment. Donald Trump doesn't shy away from controversial ideas, and often times those ideas are needed, or at least need to be part of the discussion. For example, temporarily banning Muslims from entering the country. Although, I think until a proper system can be set up, we should ban any refugee and accept people on an individual level. Killing terrorists' families... That's too far for my beliefs, although most families do know about, or are even cooperating with the terrorist group. If I had a penny for every time a politician lied, I'd have more money than Trump. He lies a lot, yes. Every other candidate pretty much lies on an hourly basis, too. Like last night's speech by Ted Cruz. He quoted Trump for saying Education should be one of the top 3 priorities for the government. I saw the town hall when Trump said that, and Anderson Cooper (who I like a lot) questioned him further on that since Trump said previously that education should go to the states, and Trump clarified that Education was a government priority because it is in the power of the government right now and it needs to be released to the states, which means that the government has to do something with it to to allow the states to handle education. Ted Cruz most likely knew that, but like all politicians, he lied and took it out of context. I hear polls constantly about the disapproval rate/"would not vote for" of Trump. I heard that since the start of the election. But not once did I see a poll for the "would not vote for" rates of other candidates until just recently. Which apparenlty, are all pretty high, not unlike Donald Trump at all.

This very country was built on religious freedom.

Who then invest and create jobs.
