Trump’s right. The US is doing big numbers these days. For example, JD Vance was booed 834% more than any other politician in Olympic Games history.

See how Thatcher's system enriched the rich, buoyed London and the SE of England, created horrible inequality in the UK, opened the door for oligarchs to settle & avoid taxes, & so on. Privatization helps the rich, destroys the middle class & crushes those who needed a social safety net.

This was the CBC in Canada. What did NBC do, I wonder?
J.D. Vance was booed so badly at the Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony that even the announcers commented on it.
“There is the Vice President J.D. Vance and his wife Usha—OOP, those are not… uh… those are a lot of boos for him. Whistling, jeering, some applause.”
