Why do you believe in Trump? Trump is anti-American and wants to destroy our nation. If the U.S. was for it before Trump, then Trump is against it now. He wants to get rid of all of our allies and alliances, longstanding allies who have helped us in Afghanistan and Iraq and with other matters. When Trump is done trying to destroy everything the U.S. has accomplished since WWII, it may take decades to restore the U.S. standing in the world and reestablish trust with our allies.
You’ve lost your damn mind. He is doing exactly what he ran on. He is shaking up the status quo. There is nothing the man is doing that doesn’t have the US’s best interests at the forefront.
We can talk how the trade wars are potentially going to negatively impact us in the short term, but if they equate to better bilateral agreement in the long term, it will be better. They cause a big damn problem in the interim but he isn’t looking at the quarterly or semi-annual impacts. He’s looking long term and while some businesses will be negatively impacted as will consumers, supposing we come out on top with better trade deals, the country will be better positioned in the long term.
You talk about wanting to get rid of allies and yet completely gloss over US/Cuba and 60 years of policy being reversed by Obama. You leave out the part where Obama put the Middle East in chaos with his stupid fvcking Iran initiative and its isolation of our traditional allies in the ME. You left out the part where Obama all but turned his back on Israel. You leave out where under Obama, Russia was running loose at will and he did nothing.
Yet, Trump on the other hand is busting their *** with sanctions and military development, arming Ukraine, killing several hundred of them in Syria, advocating through a position of strength for a greater financial commitment of NATO which Russia doesn’t want, attacking their Natural Gas industry, and busting Iran’s *** which is a very large consumer of Russian military tech.
Let me ask you this? Do you think the EU was designed with the betterment of US policy in mind? Hell no. It was a conglomerate established to compete with us. Do you think the EU countries were just going voluntarily renegotiate trade deals for our betterment and their detriment? If you think that, I’ve got some land to sell you.
In the event Russia came threatening to our allies, who do you think the first call would be to? China? No, they’re calling us. Nothing has changed with our allies beyond us leveraging our position of strength and offending their undeserving sense of superiority to us. They look at us with scorn because they each used to be world powers. France is used to having the UK kiss it’s ***. Germany is still smarting from the drubbing they took 70 years ago. The UK pissed away an empire that they still think they are. It’s all ego. They’re being told to go color in the corner, American exceptionalism is back. Shocker, they don’t like having to acknowledge we’re superior to them. So what? We going to elect another limp wristed candy *** that goes and caters to their ego at the expense of our economic prosperity? I hope to all hell that doesn’t happen.
You’re essentially wishing us to be the rich kid that people don’t really like, talk **** behind our back, and take full advantage of us. That was the US over the last 20 years. Those days are over with Trump and aside from our military getting back to what we do best it’s one of the things I’m most happy about. I wish the son of a ***** could do it with a little more class, but he doesn’t. Results are what I care about, not talk. We differ in that regard and many others on issues that matter. You all fawned all over St Barry the feckless as we pissed down our leg for 8 years militarily and economically on an international front and have the audacity to dare ***** about Trump restoring our place at the top?
Good lord.
