“We are a third world nation. We are literally a banana republic.”

Donald Trump declared this in a video below.

Does anyone actually agree with this? It’s insane. Has he ever been in a third world nation? Has he ever gone shopping at Banana Republic?

Seriously: his whole campaign is telling his base that America sucks. I can’t believe no one in a red state is offended by him. All the people Trump hates from third world nations flock here because it’s paradise compared to the rest of the world.

Trump would like to hypnotize his base into thinking America is one of his shit hole countries. Far from it. He’s so cynical he thinks he can get away this miserable outlook. Inflation is the lowest ever. The stock market is highest ever. We have air conditioning and dry cleaning. Viva USA!
