Trump that... 19:03 - May 21 with 1034 views | SullutaCreturned | He;s at it again then, bbc.co.uk/news/live/cpqe7rp388vt I'm not sure Black people are readu to hear about "white persecution" I mean, we all know it's gone on in parts, in Zimbabwe they robbed white farmers of their land. I'm sure there's plenty I either forgot or haven't heard about but these days what we hear about is relatives of the enslaved demanding reparations. Maybe we need to follow Trump and push back at it. |  | | |  |

Obnoxious or not ,maybe they should look at their own records in office before being critical of him . |  |

They’re not being critical of him. That’s why they come away with so much credit. |  | |  |
Trump that... on 22:11 - May 21 with 892 views | Dr_Winston | South Africa appears to be going down the Zimbabwe route where the white farmers are being persecuted and a serious decline in the Nations' ability to feed itself will probably follow. Nothing can excuse the horrors of Apartheid, but the vengeance/communist approach to rectifying it solves nothing. |  |

Since Apartheid was lifted poverty has increased in SA. |  |

Trump has got everyone looking in the wrong place. Poverty in South Africa is on the increase year on year with mismanagement from successive governments. The story is not Trump but a population suffering from the effects of corruption and incompetence. https://documents.worldbank.org/en/publication/documents-reports/documentdetail/ |  |

Absolutely. But according to this thread, it’s down to the end to of apartheid. I don’t think bring back racial segregation is the answer. |  | |  |

The decline started at the end of apartheid but was not due to the absence of apartheid rather the presence of corrupt and incompetent governments filling the gap. |  |

Zimbabwe is another example and there are more. Corrupt and incompetent governments change the rules, rig the elections and cream off the cash that should be improving the country. |  | |  |

While the poor remain poor, the rich become richer. I came across some children of the Black African elite at a Chinese university a few years ago - wealthy and entitled. |  | |  |

I think it was in SA but even so, Trump has his priorities all wrong. 125 killed with guns every day in the USA and then he... bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgr5xrygzk5o The bloke is nuts. |  | |  |

It was from a the aftermath of a rebel battle in the Congo, Cat. His supporters don’t seem to care, though. The only thing that’ll do for him is the economy, I reckon. It’s all very well his fans saying he doesn’t really mean the things he says. The markets do care though - they don’t like volatility and making random stuff up isn’t helpful. |  | |  |

My mistake, I read a BBC report that said the road with crosses along it was in SA, must have been a different picture or something else the steaming great twerp said. It's hard to keep up, every time he opens his mouth it just spills BS everywhere. The markets have responded badly to his new tariffs but ironically it'll probably hit us less hard in the UK, not being in the EU AND when the EU responds that won't hit us as hard either. With the USA and the EU facing off a trade war, being on the outside seems better, in my opinion. |  | |  |

Trump has had the stock markets almost at his will. Some people will have made a lot of money riding the ups and downs. |  |

I obviously don't know but I'd say a lot of Trumps close friends will have made a killing on the stocks and shares. Not that I'm accusing Trump of helping his friends or anything like that, god forbid. |  | |  |

From the get go people like Marjory Taylor Green and other Republicans made a killing...There is an official trading volume site that had a graph showing that 20 minutes before everyone else could move a number of people got the drop on the market when Trump first paused a tarriff. |  |
