"AND YOU STILL HAVE THE NERVE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH..."
Too sharp not to share.
This Australian's response to Trump's rant that "NATO doesn't exist for America" is perfect:
"Mate,
You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight.
A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money.
A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive.
A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy.
A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages.
You imprison more of your own citizens than any other country on Earth.
More than China.
More than Russia.
More than North Korea.
In the land of the free, 2 million people are held in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything.
They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is falling. You're the only developed country where that's happening.
Your infant mortality rate is higher than Cuba's.
Your children practice active-shooter drills between math and English classes while you sell gun stocks to your friends.
Your minimum wage hasn't changed in 15 years...
You have teachers working two jobs, veterans sleeping under bridges, and you've just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that never attacked you.
And a convicted criminal, found liable in a rape case, defending a pedophile, sleeping with a porn star, and leading the biggest dumpster-fire campaign since the Taliban, thanks you for yet another failure.
And you're calling Greenland poorly governed?
Greenland has universal healthcare.
Free education.
One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world.
Nobody goes bankrupt because they got sick.
Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance company said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them.'
When exactly was that, champ?
September 11?
Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in its history for you.
Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan for you.
Australia wasn't even in NATO, and we still showed up.
For twenty years.
And then you left at two in the morning without telling anyone and left them to clean up the mess.
You don't care that a great nation is being terrorized by your friend. You haven't shown it a shred of sympathy.
So maybe, before you start calling other countries poorly governed, take a look at your own backyard, you aluminum-siding salesman with a spray tan.
The only thing being poorly managed in this picture is your damn mouth.
And you still have the nerve to lecture everyone else?"
This is not World War II footage.
This is Toretsk, Ukraine — and it’s not as far away as you think.
A city that once had over 30,000 residents. Now almost completely erased.
There is no excuse for this. None.
