    He's not condemning it, this is his pitch for why he should be president:

    "This country is run by perverts and thugs so it's only fair that the biggest most thuggish pervert should be its leader"

    america is not a "third world" hellhole, it is an imperialist hellhole. It's even more appalling than a "third world" hellhole because it manages to be this way in spite of extracting so much surplus value from the labor of the poorest countries through regimes of unequal exchange, high interest loans, imperialist domination, etc. Also, my god, the marginalization of prisoners (slaves), homeless, impoverished, indigenous, POC, LGBT, etc..

    It's funny how this is a thing, especially coming from Trump. I recently had a discussion with someone who watches a lot of right wing media and was talking about Sound of Freedom and pedophilia in general. He said something about how under Trump there wouldn't be any rampant pedophilia and I was like, huh? They're, the elite including Trump, probably all pedos and he was like, no way Trump isn't like that.

    Whatever. Americans just fall to their political "duopoly" far too easily and excuse the worst people as long as they are on their team.

      I've heard that trumps Epstein connections are because he was working undercover. A white hat pedophile

        God I’m so tired of these people pretending to care about kids or anything like this all isn’t just you calling your enemies the worst thing that is the most permissible for violence. The farce of this moral panic is so grating to me

    Liberals ignores the problems and pretends everything is fine.

    Fascists sees the problems and then moves on to blame the Jews/gays/Muslims/whatever.
