- rbanffy 10y agoI prefer a Middle Eastern or African to a Trump supporter. It's just too dangerous to let them in to spread their ideology. ;-)
- sandeatr 10y agoSafe to say, Trump supporters aren't traveling to europe.
- maxerickson 10y agoThis isn't true, his base of support is motivated by any number of factors and many of them are financially well off. Plenty of his political supporters would be happier if he behaved more like the usual politicians but will put up with his shenanigans as long as they get what they want from him.
- nonglobal 10y agoYour governments aren't funding TV ads telling you that the future of your countries are American Trump supporters, and that you have to roll over and accept it. Or telling you that unemployed violent rednecks sipping Bud Light and waving the Confederate flag are quintessentially European, and that you are a racist to not want them in your neighborhood beating up your son and making increasingly inappropriate advances on your wife and daughter. And should these rednecks rape your young child, the courts don't them off with a slap on the wrist, because that's how they did it in rural America, and we need to be more accepting of other cultures. And your government certainly wouldn't fine you and send you to jail for hate speech if you complained about these rednecks and Trump supporters online.
