Seriously?
Pandering is what politics IS. The issue here is DEGREES. I don't mind some social programs but the shit Bernie spews out of his mouth, fuck no.
We are the THIRD most populous nation on the PLANET, beaten only by India and China. Unlike India and China, most of our population boom is from IMMIGRATION, you know, people wanting to come HERE. Being an immigrant from China who entered the right fucking way, I know.
We got Trump because Bernie had to fucking cheat and literally pull some Leninist bullshit rhetoric which brought extremist leftists out of the woodwork. Trump was like 'Goddamn, this asshole will do and say ANYTHING, to win, I might as well too'.
Also, America in general was sick and tired of the fucking snowflakes, SJWs and fucking cucks. America was also sick and tired of listening to and seeing, leftist hypocrisy, fear mongering, and drama, much like your post above. Cherry pick some isolated examples, ISOLATED in your own words, like VIOLENT riots, while trying to sneak some outright retarded examples, like the teen on food stamps, or equating a police force with one that has access to mortars, land mines, helicopter gunships, AC 130s, one armored vehicle=TANKS, and hope people buy into the bullshit without looking to close.
Trump was never an ideal decision, based on anger rather than reason, I admit, but it is not because America sucks, at least, the way you paint it to be.

What? Did you happen to ignore history?
Did you miss Putins, Make Russia Great Again/Cry about the downfall of the SU speech? You know, the one where he actually says it sucks that Russia has LESS ability to screw over its neighbors. Did you also not notice the Taiwan straits crisis or the man made island/military base building China has pulled/done? Of course it is unlikely now that they would push us too far because we are too strong. Also, hopefully, our government wouldn't be fucking stupid enough to let the PRC and Russia keep building up to the point to where they can fuck our shit up. Why, because by the time they CAN fuck our shit up, by default, it is too fucking late to do a goddamn thing.
Again history, the Persians, the Greeks, the Romans, the Chinese, etc , etc, they didn't fall because of outside forces, at least at first. It was stupid fucking assholes and petty infighting that weakened the country from within, or lack of a capable leader, that caused these empires to fall. If the U.S does the same, lets Russia or the other countries do whatever the fuck they want, the same would happen to us too. Fuck playing fair.
Also, look at Europe. Without a unifying hegemon, you guys murdered the fucking shit out of each other, trying to get to that position, while colonizing the world, ending with TWO WORLD WARS. Yea, no hegemon but a bunch of smaller powers fighting over the world is such a good fucking idea.
Man, for someone who lives in a country with a small population, its defense backed up heavily by the U.S, therefore having to spend the bare minimum for defense, you act like adopting euro socialism is as easy as flipping a light switch. I would NEVER anti-NATO it but what would have happened if Trump actually decided to take a gigantic dump on NATO? Guess what, you now have to put money towards a capable, euro force. Say hello to massive cuts in all your free shit.
@BigGuyCIA
I bitch and moan about food deserts because I am not smart enough or too lazy to figure out a way to get to the goddamn grocery store that's a mile or two away. Or how about, I can't pay mah bills but check out these sweet ass rims that are on my car, that was used to go to this kickass concert. I am poor and should swallow my fucking pride and make the most of my money instead of spending it buying high priced shit that actually will get me LESS FOOD overall. I am from a low socio economic situation but I love dating assholes or follow religion blindly and not use birth control.
