The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: No smocking guns. - Page 5109 - Politics and Economics

It's why canadians tourists have a badge on their backpack if they're young or tell you they're canadian within 60 seconds if they don't.
They know how it works.

El Rata, I think you are either the best SE troll or really stupid and an awful human being based on your sporting opinions. I assume those carry over to the rest of the world, so I would prefer to have a beer with a random American or myself for that matter than you.

Trump said "nobody believes in the First Amendment more than I do" and attempted to clarify that he did not believe all media is the "enemy," but only outlets which he considers "fake news."

"But a lot of times, sir, it’s just news you don’t like," Wallace replied. And he told the president that "leaders in authoritarian countries like Russia, China, Venezuela, now repress the media using your words."
"I can’t talk for other people, I can only talk for me," Trump replied.

"But you’re seen around the world as a beacon for repression," Wallace said.

Lol beacon of repression. Jesus.

Been chuckling about this sequence all evening. Your ignorant American reminds me of Cousin Avi from 'Snatch'

Quote:

Avi : Yes, London. You know: fish, chips, cup 'o tea, bad food, worse weather, Mary ****ing Poppins... LONDON.

Quote:

Avi : You got a toothbrush? We're going to London. Do you hear that, Doug? I'm coming to London.

[Avi arrives in London]

Doug the Head : Avi!

Avi : Shut up and sit down, you big, bald ****. I don't like leaving my own country, Doug, and I especially don't like leaving it for anything less than warm sandy beaches, and cocktails with little straw hats.

Doug the Head : We've got sandy beaches...

Avi : So? Who the **** wants to see 'em? I hope you appreciate the concern I have for my friend Franky, Doug. I'm gonna find him, and you're gonna help me find him, and we're gonna start at that fight.

Bullet Tooth Tony : A bookie's got blagged last night.

Avi :Blagged? Speak English to me, Tony. I thought this country spawned the ****ing language, and so far nobody seems to speak it.

My mother has traveled to Europe multiple times. The times she was with me I was the guide and did a bunch of the planning to get from one place to another. She didn't do much in the way of chatting with locals. I do wonder how she was perceived when she went with her full-on deplorable boyfriend and could unleash her deplorable side without any anger from me or my sisters. Never heard any regrets from her about her trips across the pond.

-----------------------------------------------

As for me, I've been living in Scotland for about 2 years after living and travelling elsewhere in Europe for the previous 4 years. I can't recall a time where I was **** on by locals specifically for being American. If anything, being American has been an overall positive for me in social situations.

Being from overseas is generally a positive socially (at least when you speak English and are culturally similar). The stereotype of Americans is that they are loud, arrogant, stupid and ignorant, but all you have to do is not play into those stereotypes and you're good. It's like that here.

If you still play a bit of hold'em bob, the genting casino when theres a festival on, is good for a game, even better for the banter...
