Clearly the free market is by far a superior ideology. It does occasionally need some socialist input/ agitation..but left to its own devices it makes life better for everyone, once they are prepared to do their bit.Over the past 10/15 years, there has been too much leftist deterioration in America which has been exported to the rest of the world. This has partly been manifested by the likes of Antifa/ BLM. It may also have resulted in Trump being elected, who at the time was an inexperienced candidate, ordinarily this would have discounted any appeal. That speaks to how much the Democrats had deteriorated. But look at him now. Hes up to speed, thick skinned, dealing with attackers on multiple fronts and doing a great job. On the basis of leftist vs free market/ traditional American values, its very important Trump and the republicans get re-elected - for sake of the US and the rest of the world, especially here in Ireland. Otherwise the nihilistic rot of leftism will continue to gather pace, IMHO.

Sure, unions are bad or whatever it is you're trying to say. *Howler* Trump the 5-times failed businessman being horrified by something business related. What, exactly, can he do about state and local unions? Put the mirror down and find some real humans to talk with.Are you honestly expecting there are a number of US bullsh1t DeepState employees discussing Trump on an Irish message board? My guess is you're a grad of that failed education system.

I've tried elsewhere to be reasonable with one and was called a liar and shut up about American politics since I didn't reside in the US. Sigh. It's August, there are 72 days left. Next week's the RNC which should be a hoot, I wonder if the networks will do a real-time fact check. #IMPOTUS's acceptance speech might be one for the ages.
