Flipped back and forth from different networks and the majority are saying it is due to anti-capitalists. I flipped to CNN for a few minutes and they keep bringing up that these protesters are opposed to Trump and that is why they are protesting. Why?

Because everything bad is his fault and everything good is because of someone else no matter what without exception.

At this point, CNN is the boxer in the ring looking for the mouthpiece after getting a 1-2 uppercut to the chin. They're out for the count.

Because the left is anti capitalist and married to those movements like ANTIFA

Fox is reporting that the protests are by anti-globalists.

I guess CNN is right because they would support Trump, no? It's just not the protest they want it to be.

Because Trump is the source of all things evil and sinister.


You didn't know that?

It's because he's very unpopular there.

Here's the polling on Trump around the world:

That doesn't mean that every protest is because of Trump, does it?

I understand that. But why is CNN going crazy on this narrative while others are proclaiming they are anti-globalist/capitalist?

I wonder why protesters don't ever show up with their own gear on? Wear some helmets, pads, maybe a gas mask, etc. Nothing can stop you then.

That's a good point. I'm sure his popularity doesn't help. He's got this coming to him in Britain, though:

quote:

More than five months after British prime minister Theresa May first invited Donald Trump to visit the U.K., he still hasn’t made the trip. Turns out the massive protests that are guaranteed to greet him in London are deterring him from visiting at all — that is, unless he can sneak in, which is exactly what might happen. According to reports in the Guardian and the Times of London, Trump might pop into Downing Street for a quick, informal meeting with May sometime in the next couple weeks. The visit would happen between the G20 summit in Hamburg next weekend and the July 14 Bastille Day celebrations in Paris, which Trump has committed to attending.

There aren't any competent or intelligent people working at CNN. The only reason to watch that channel is for the lolz.

Pew shows only two countries where Trump is more popular than Obama: Israel and Russia. Trump is getting slaughtered in Poland according to Pew just like the audience reacted to him today with vile hatred.

Come on give me something other than a bullshite poll from Pew.
