I am so impressed by Trump and his strength and courage to tell the truth about the kakistocracy. To bad there is no courage in the MSM, or congress in a general sense. The reasonable members are a true minority.

Of course, Trump's denunciations were greeted by silence.
Socialism is how all the globalists in the building dream of ruling the world.

Socialism like Communism is a fraud. Its real purpose is to provide a path to power for a self proclaimed "intellectual elite" to rise to positions of ultimate authority. It's just a replacement for monarchy and it relies on "useful idiots" to achieve those goals.

Any social system that can only be maintained by threat of force is fundamentally flawed. No one will ever force you to become a capitalist.

The seductive element of socialism is its seeming simplicity. People dislike complexity, and capitalism, with the constant change created by competition and innovation, is very complex. Adam Smith essentially said it was a hopeless venture to try to contain or control a free market, calling the seemingly mysterious way the flow of goods and services changed so rapidly the "magic hand" of enterprise.

Having been in contact with many successful people over the years, the most amazing thing I found was how downright stupid many of them were, recipients of blind luck which they interpreted as their own brilliance. Stupid people like simple solutions, which is why you seemingly mysteriously find wealthy people who benefited from the riches of capitalist society the most passionate supporters of socialism.

And all those who call Trump a buffoon, are the real buffoons. That is the most profound statement ever made before the UN. And, it wasn't made by a Kennedy, a Clinton, an Obama, the intellectual elite. But, was made by the so-called clown. Wise up Republicans. For a change you've got a winner.

...and the little boy pointed at the emperor and said "Look! He's not wearing any clothes!"

Definitely an encouraging thing to say? Kudos to Trump. Not surprising that the other countries who have embraced various levels of socialism denounce him.

The facts speak for themselves. Venezuela is a prime example of the end game for socialism. Once the free money runs out (the high price of the oil they could actually get out of the ground), the system collapses. Ayn Rand predicted all of this in AS. As clear as day.

Now that I'm older, when I stop and really look at what the elite are trying to accomplish in this world...all the starvation, suffering that comes with it...I really see true evil. I see little traces of it from my few leftist friends when we have discussions. Their eyes twinkle at the thought of ruling over their fellow citizens, forcing them to do certain things, or maybe taking control over people's children. They don't bat an eye at the skinny, starving lady holding a sign begging at the intersection. They like it.

...noted...

Bravo, kudos to Trump.
Will anyone else from the so-called free market sector stand and support Trump and the truth about socialism?

What would one expect from a giant room full of bureaucrats in the semi-irrelevant UN whose only source of income is political power.

Of course this group hates freedom.

Was not surprised at all by the silent lack of response...the truth left them speechless.

The surprised was the lack of a show of cognitive dissonance! The vast majority of UN member nations practice some form of socialism to outright communism.

As Dob rightly identifies them as the "Kakistocracy", one should also note that the global collective is not eclectic at all. It truly is a homogeneous collection barring a few standouts that keep the whole thing interesting.

Maybe Trump should have denounced National Socialism. Then paused for a reaction. Then added worldwide socialism as well.

I heard it over my radio, and, as I recall, there was
laughter--as if the people thought he had made a
really good point.

it is all about nomenclature...the meaning of the word and the emotional association with it...there is negative association with "communism"...not so with "socialism"...so in an conversation I refer to Venuzela as an example of communism...
