Trump Calls America "Third World Hellhole" Run By "Perverts And Thugs" - Ring of Fire



During his speech at this past weekend's Turning Points conference in Florida, Donald Trump claimed that the United States had become a "third world hellhole" that is being run by "perverts" and "thugs." Technically, that IS what happened while he was President, but the situation seems to have gotten slightly better since then. Every accusation from these people is an admission, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

That’s what you want to turn the United States into: a Third World kleptocracy “governed” by a greedy elite with the rule of law and respect for the people’s will replaced by back-room dealers and citizen’s rights trampled by goon squads answerable to no one except their paymasters. We’ve seen it before in Brazil, Colombia, the Dominican Republic and Cuba before 1959. That’s how the Russian Federation is governed today. And Donnie wants to bring it here!
