President Donald Trump took aim at socialism and left-wing ideology during his speech at the United Nations – specifically in the context of Venezuela, a socialist state currently experiencing the worst humanitarian crisis in its history. “The socialist Maduro regime has brought a once thriving nation to the brink of total collapse,” Trump said. “This dictatorship has inflicted terrible pain and suffering on the good people of that country. This corrupt regime destroyed a prosperous nation, by imposing a failed ideology that has produced poverty and misery everywhere it has been tried. ”
“The problem in Venezuela is not that socialism has been poorly implemented, but that socialism has been faithfully implemented,” Trump continued. “From the Soviet Union to Cuba to Venezuela, wherever true socialism or Communism has been adopted it has delivered anguish and devastation and failure. Those who preach the tenants of these discredited ideologies only contribute to the continued suffering of the people living under these cruel systems.”

Noting that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the corrupt feds the specific power to tax and spend for the poor, vote-winning federal welfare spending based on stolen state powers and uniquely associated stolen state revenues, global socialism is generally nothing more a front-end for smart crooks who get themselves elected to “legally” steal people’s money through taxation imo.
The President could also have said, “Maduro, you built that!”
That should be tenets not tenants. They mean completely different things.
One of the best speeches I’ve ever heard an American president deliver, full of the kind of hard truths that liberals just hate. No one can fault Trump’s speeches.
I thought he knocked it out of the park in front of those commie f*cktards today....
The facial expressions on some of them were priceless.
That’s a REAL example of speaking truth to Communist-Globalist power.
I don’t need to hear Trump’s speeches anymore.
I know he will always say better what I would say were I in the same position.
From the excerpts I’m hearing, I know I was correct again.
But But the United Nations wants to be the Socialist Regime that controls THE WORLD ,D’oh
0bama wanted a dictatorial socialism in the form of a world order government . The Soros model .
“revolutionary justice” - another Lying Leftist term.
“Revolutionary justice” = Jacobin Reign of Terror
Do yourself a favor and listen to the whole thing. A rare treat to listen to something instantly historic. Hands down the best speech ever delivered to the UN.
All forms of socialism amount to a criminal enterprise, in which well-connected insiders con the People into putting their faith in a governing oligarchy, instead of God. Right now, we are seeing this play out as corporate America is allied with the “wealthy left” in an effort to turn our free republic into a pagan cesspool.
Well put. In America that is literally true because the Constitution does not allow the feds to engage in socialist tyranny so such federal activity is illegal and criminal becsue it is unconstitutional.
corporate America
Don't let the Lying Left get your eye off the ball. The voluntary cooperation between buyers and sellers in the free market economy is the goose that laid the golden egg and the source of America's great wealth and power.
There is no such thing as "crony capitalism". That is a Leftist feint and deflection. Free enterprise is doing its job to find the lowest cost and highest revenue regardless of the source including government sources. The issue is GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION from stem to stern.
Make no mistake: the Constitution does not forbid free enterprise from quid pro quo with government, but the Constitution absolutely forbids government from bribery with anyone.
The bad guys have been, are, and always will be CORRUPT GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS. Stop government bribery with the likes of lobbyists etc., and "corporate America" will simply have to look to more effective and more competitive production as the source of greater profits.
In his description, you’d think he was talking about the failed socialist states of: CA, NY, CT, MA, NJ, IL, and any other name you’d like to add.
Thanks. I will try to listen soon.
My point is, that I trust Trump to speak for me.
Like I have never, ever trusted a politician before.
What apartmentdwellers have to do with it and why are they being preached?
I knew what you meant by that. ;-)
He slapped them into reality.
I WISH he’d said “I’m not my predecessor. This isn’t Obama kissing your asses, and those days are over.”
But he basically said it without using those words.
I can assure you that the “lying left” has never deceived me. There is a big difference between Christian free enterprise and voluntary association, and the kind of corporatism encouraged by the federal government and Federal reserve. There most certainly is crony capitalism, when politicians favor their friends in big business, which has zero to do with capitalism or free enterprise. Moreover, big corporate America is “all-in” on promotion of social pathologies such as Sodomite “whatever” posing as marriage, transgenderism, abortion, and general abomination.
Do you think that it is “capitalist” or “free enterprise” when large companies threaten to abandon states which do not allow men to use the ladies’ room?
Maybe it is you who are deceived?
It doesn’t make sense for conservatives to support big corporations that rabidly promote social liberalism.
