Die faster, pedo.
Trump’s just jealous because Norway is the whitest country on Earth.
Cause of all the snow?
At least we provide our citizens with basic things like health insurance as a right.
-All Norway has to say.
As a Norwegian, I would never call it health “insurance”. It’s just part of the social security that we pay taxes for.
Well, the state is acting as a single payer for all health care its populace needs. The money is not going from you directly to the service provider. An example of that would be you paying someone to rotate your tires. Rather, the state is providing payment to the doctor for services provided to treat your health care needs. Thus, the state is acting as an insurer whose premium is the taxes you pay. You just get a whole lot of extras for the premium you pay (like road work, disaster relief, penalizing criminality, etc.). That is a textbook example of insurance.
*Edit: for those of you who doubt what I say, I ask you to look at history to as an illustration. When the US was last trying to adopt universal care under Obama, who was it that dumped the buckets of money on advertising to water it down to a mere marketplace from Romneycare? It was the private insurance companies. What was the main reform that got adopted in that in lieu of state coverage? That the insurance companies could no longer deny people with pre-existing conditions.
I mean, the state provides public schools, free for all aged ≈5-18, but we don’t call it “education insurance.”
This is very american-centric thinking. Its just a service provided by the state on a needs basis. Like a road, or the immigration office.
So all my taxes are going to insurance somehow?
Public transport insurance?
Public school insurance?
Public road insurance?
Did you not see where I said this?
You just get a whole lot of extras for the premium you pay (like road work, disaster relief, penalizing criminality, etc.).
But, yeah, at a conceptual level, society is ultimately a safety net (synonym for insurance) when compared to the individualism from living pre-stone age.
Just say the guy was right already.
No it’s not… it’s a textbook example of a social safety net. aka Social Security. aka what they said.
A safety net is an synonym for insurance.
No insurance is a scam posing as a safety net.
An… adjective? Did you mean to claim it’s a synonym?
Fixed (it’s late here), but glad you recognized my point.
but they’re not synonyms either lol. Insurance is a very specific thing. It doesn’t just mean “Anytime you collectivize costs” or “a safety net”. It’s a specific business model used to cover specific losses of specific things.
He already got the FIFA Peace Prize™ 🏆, why is he complaining?
Didn’t he win champion of the year from a congressional hopeful too?
Trump is such a moron 😂 Anyone would be lucky to be born in norway.
To this day, I still have no idea why my Norwegian friend became a US citizen and started living here in the US
The US is actually a great place to live if you are a wealthy white person.
You could have left it at wealthy.
Then you still run the risk of getting randomly shot by ICE
Nah. If your rich and not white there are still major downsides. It’s definitely more important how much money you have these days, but like, racism is still extremely common.
Tgey turned on the pvp mode
Norway of all places. The country with some of the best ratings for quality of life, education, safety and nearly every other metric.
The reason, I’ll bet, is that people who are happy and well cared for are more difficult to exploit, which is the only metric his psychopathic brain cares about.
It’s because they didn’t give him a Nobel. Narcissists are simple creatures.
No, it is just because he didn’t get the Nobel Peace prize. He doesn’t care about that other stuff in the slightest, because it is not about him.
More like he still thinks Norway controls the Nobel prize and he’s still mad he didn’t get it.
Imagine being so dumb you think you deserve a peace prize for funding a genocide, starting wars and having a lawless Gestapo kidnapping people and dragging them to concentration camps for minor civil infractions
having a lawless Gestapo kidnapping people and dragging them to concentration camps for
minor civil infractionsnot being white
Exactly. Norway isn’t letting him exploit them.
I visited Norway a couple years ago. It was a god damn fairy tail. Waterfalls and fjords everywhere. Pristine rivers, mountains and forests. Clean air and water. Amazing restaurants and public transportation. Everyone spoke English. I would live there…easy. My only complaint is it is a bit expensive but the quality of live trade off would be worth it.
He couldn’t make dark money hand over fist in Norway, so he can’t understand why anyone would want to be there.
Visit Oslo, it makes home depressing, unless you live in Oslo.
I doubt donnie dumbass even thought about it that hard or knows any of that.
He is just a man-baby throwing more ketchup on the wall because the black man got a prize and he didn’t. He will just never get over so many things - Obama having two terms and getting a prize that he didn’t being fairly high on the list.
I volunteer to go there and face the shitty conditions. … please?
(let me go back in there, and face the peril!)
Time to take the keys away from gramps.
Time to take him behind the shed and unload both barrels into him at point blank.
Gut shot, the kind that takes hours or days
Dress him in a dogsuit and hand him to Noem.
Agreed, on a separate subject, who the hell writes a 1300 word mini essay on a micro blogging platform, have to be a complete lunatic 🤔 lol
This guy’s hasn’t driven himself anywhere in 30 years #JustEpsteinClassThings
Natalie.
Ohh good point…the attention span required just isn’t there with dear leader lol
With the em dashes I’m sure it was grok.
- Grok as dictated by Donald J trump Or something along those lines lol.
Grok: Presidential Edition
Now with Super Intelligence
Lol
I wish any reporter would ask Trump a simple question like, “Can you say a number between 500 and 1000?” or “What is the capital of the United States?” or “Name a country in North America.”
If you name everything America, you do bestly on cognitive tests.
He already failed ‘who’s the president of the Virgin Islands*?’
e: sorry, I mixed this up, it wasn’t Puerto Rico, it was the Virgin Islands.
To be fair, it’s the same dumbfuckery.Duhh… he obviously knows America is in North America. Too easy!
/s lol
His answer?
‘North’
Norwegian here. Most of us don’t care.
I for one feel very satisfied that Trump hates us. I take it as a huge compliment.
Nothing has grossed me out more than when Trump years ago said he wanted more Norwegian immigrants and less immigrants from “shithole countries.”
To quote Rick & Morty: “Your boos mean nothing, I’ve seen what makes you cheer!”
FreshParsnip calls Trump a dumbfuck
Slammed!!
"**“He knows very well that the Nobel committee is independent,” **
I don’t think he is familiar with that concept.
STFU Brandon
The 25th amendment sure seems great, if only in principle.
So does the 2nd amendment, though only in principle.

Honestly I was expecting Vance to already make his move by now. But I think he’s just so unlikeable that he can’t convince anyone else to side with him.
he has no chance of magats rubbing off on him and gaining their support if he tries to grab power for himself.
Pretty sure that’s why Vance was chosen. Remember that Mike ‘mother wouldn’t approve’ Pence wasn’t subservient enough for trump and went against him in the 11th hour.
It won’t work though. All Trump has to do is say, “I’m fine,” and he can act as President again after being removed.
That wasnt even a fire back. Straight up tell him to shut his dumbass up. Thats a fire back.
