The Retard of the United States strikes again...

Classical Greece and Rome were republics. The system of government in the USA was modeled after those ancient examples. These ancient societies were among the first, and the USA does indeed share in that cultural and political heritage.

Learn some history before you meme about historical references and you won't look like a moron.

While nothing you said is factually incorrect, Trump's wording and tense structure gives the unambiguous meaning that the USA was around when the Roman Empire was. At best, Trump is careless with his wording - AGAIN! - and therefore it is he who looks the moron.

No, that's your interpretation of it. Anyone not looking to bash him at every chance would get his sentiment.

Present tense are and present continuous dating. No interpretation about it. You're choosing to give him the benefit of the doubt - as, indeed, you always do - but the world's been telling you from the beginning that he speaks at a 5th grade reading level.

Oh, I know. Ever since the 19th, the speech of the president has gotten dumber. From college level to 5th grade level.

But why is this statement causing so much butthurt? He's certainly not insulting his ally. But like always, you guys pick apart everything in a partisan way. Maybe if you picked your battles more wisely, anti trumpers wouldn't have the reputation of being whiny, constantly butthurt bitches. Just sayin'.

It's almost as if you just say everything you don't agree with is butthurt so that you can complain about all the butthurt.

Rome still exists, present tense.

Ancient Rome does not, genius.

Wow...you actually posted that and thought it would make you sound smart.

Present day Rome is in Italy, which is also a Republic, modeled after.....anyone? Bueller?

THE REPUBLICS OF ANCIENT ROME AND GREECE!

You should definitely keep calling me a genius though, so you can actually be correct about something.

Read the quote again. You're describing what Trump was trying to say but not what he actually said with the words he used.

I'm afraid that I don't assume meaning beyond the words spoken. He said nothing that is untrue.

US cultural heritage shared with Italy, let's go back to that famous Italian - Christopher Columbus and before him, the Italian namesake of America - Amerigo Vespucci. Being discovered and colonized by Italians, I'd say that's pretty significant.

Political heritage - well, you've been denying the history for the entire post in favor of your theory that Trump doesn't know history, even though he said nothing that is historically inaccurate - it just isn't worded in a way that you can accept (because you can't accept anything Trump says).

I digress, America and Italy both threw off the shackles of monarchy in favor of republic. How many countries share that accomplishment? I can name one - the ancient Romans did it, reforming the monarchy into republic with the overthrow of the king in 509BC..... Thousands of years....check.

Yes, it's getting pathetic at this point. No one voted for Trump because he was a Rhodes scholar. Alot did because he wasn't a career politician or a pc phony. But Trump trolls them about being a genius and they take the bait and seethe. It's hilarious. Notice how rare it is when they actual meme about valid concerns. It's mostly typos and garbage like nuke the hurricanes, which was him trying to flush out leakers, or Russian collusion delusion conspiracy theories.

Oh my god what a moron. Imagine if Trump said "We’re the country that built the Intercontinental Railroad.” Then what would you say.
