This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street 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 are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people 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 going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance 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 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 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."
Very well stated.
@samhenry1128 So he hounded Angela Rayner out of a job over £40,000 but he doesn’t want anyone questioning anything that he does, he can’t even win a By-election and you believe he can win a General Election
The most corrupt person in UK politics, bringing US style corruption to Britain.
£22,500 and hour to promote a gold bullion firm.
The people's champion.

It started with a hit and run in Stirchley, then a murder in Lichfield, and now a paedophile in Oxford.
Ryan Bridge’s @RTCORGUK is everything they claim to rail against.
Well this is awkward.
Ben Cullen, from Wallingford, has been charged with three counts of making indecent images.
The 45-year-old is said to have made 22 indecent category A photographs, including one moving image.
He is also accused of making 36 indecent category B pseudo-photographs of children, and 20 category C images on the same date, the Oxford Mail reports.
Murder, noncing, and a botched kidnap
Raise the Colours are saving our women and kids one molestation at a time
As my granddad always said, it’s the ones who shout the loudest that need watching the closest
There's always a photo... @RTCORGUK chief flagshagger Ryan Bridge out for a jolly day out with paedophile Ben Cullen... Feel free to share this far and wide.
