a flock of middle aged Canadian women were running around our resort in Punta Cana in spring of 2017 clucking about Trump. We just told them it was none of their business and to shut the frick up. Never saw them again.

Here's what your response should've been:
"He's done alot for minorities in our country as far as jobs and prison reform. Why do you hate minorities?"
Then no matter what their response is you say:
"I'm sorry. I just don't feel comfortable having this conversation with a racist" and you leave.

It’s actually amazing how you see the same kinds of people in most countries who are able to see through the global media’s bullshite.

Just got of the phone with a New Zealander. He wasn't very enthusiastic about Trump, but we figured out they he's paying 3X what I pay for gas and 2.5X what I pay for milk.

It wasn’t a jab. I’m just cracking on the antiquated term “ overseas” that our grandfathers used back when they filled up their jalopies with Esso gasoline. We usually just say the country now because 2019. That and I took half a pain med to deal with this insane sciatica and I’m feeling goofy. Sue the F out of me, bro.

The wife and I were cruising recently. We went to dinner and got seated next to some fat Canadian and his fat wife. About 20 minutes into dinner he starts badmouthing Trump. He said some nonsense about "Trump killed high speed rail in California." I said, "No, the governor of California did that." Meanwhile, his wife is giving him a "shut the frick up" look and my wife is looking at him like he's stupid. He didn't say another word the rest of the meal.

At a bar and the topic turns to politics and Trump. I'm asked what I think of him to which I reply we have our lowest unemployment rate in years and the stock market is doing great. As long as those two things continue I'm content. I was then asked why I support a racist president and I replied what makes him racist. I said I don't agree with him on Twitter and felt he would be more popular if he abstained from it.
Then I was told I did not understand politics and if invited for him I was a racist like him. I just said, ok this is why politics and religion should not be discussed and pair my tab
Let me guess it was in western europe. Western europe is a loss cause but we should fight for eastern europe. There is still hope for eastern and central europe and slavic women are hawt.

Pretty much every American's response to European conversation about American politics should echo P.J. O'Rourke's response to a Euro in a bar who complained to O'Rourke that the trouble with Americans is that they think everything is a John Wayne movie.

I was overseas in The Orient and had a discussion with a Siamese man that went pretty positively. He threw no shade. I think Ornamentals can spot an alpha male and respect them in a way that Euroweenies don’t.

You sure you just weren’t in California? It’s hard to find people that speak English there also.

Ha! So that's how the conversation turned out? I warned you, TD. Should have just turned the discussion to beer.

I usually let them go in my bathroom , the same as the non- ornamentals. The Messicans have to go outside . No exceptions.

My friends in Italy, Germany, and England wish Trump was their leader. My friends in France however think he's the devil lol.

One guy approached me in a bar and worked himself up to the point he was yelling at me before his friends realized he was about to catch these hands and took him home. I didn't even vote for the guy but I'm not going to sit there and smile while some deutscher in capri pants runs down the president.

I don't get it. I would never approach a foreigner here in the US and lambaste them over his countries politics.

Most know what they are spoon fed by their media overlords. Which is less than zero. They know the equivalent of what Progs in this country know.
