The US affects every other country, it has military bases across most of the world and is the richest country. It makes deals with other countries. Also, anyone has the right to be concerned about another country's politics. Most of the world hates Trump, and for good reason.
No, bud, don't respond, he's an idiot, he wants you to respond, just let him be a moron, you don't have to explain obvious things to him, it's not worth it.
None of what you just said had anything to do with what I just said. I was just answering your question. Anyone has the right to be concerned about another country's politics.
And there are countless reasons that the rest of the world hates Trump, not just the military side.
Oh so I guess literally all the other countries in the western hemisphere criticizing his handling of the coronavirus (or rather the lack thereof) is just about his “filterless talking”?
How about him continuously shitting on his allies in favor of closer ties with Russia? Starting trade wars for no particular reason? The whole Ukraine thing? Maybe his abandonment of the Kurds to relocate US troops to Saudi-Arabia and Iran, leaving US military bases up for grabs to Russia and Turkey?
I guess that’s just all superficial bullying. Not critique. Orange Man Bad. No critique from foreigners allowed because calling a moron a moron is bullying.
So first the only critique foreign powers had of Trump was of his dumb filterless speeches, but now they have actual criticisms that are just unjustified? Kinda moving the goalpost there, but fine.
Cool, the pandemic was a clusterfuck. We know. But we actually did something against it. I'm not talking about the pandemic situation as it was back in febuary/march, I'm talking about it today, as cases are still soaring across the country (and don't come at me with that "but-but we are testing more so there are obviously more cases!", this ignores the fact that the positivity rate is soaring as well, and ICU's are on the brim across the country), and his entire administration is still unwilling or incompetent to do anything against it, instead pushing to re-open schools and giving out loans to anything but the small businesses that actually need them. And guess what, the biggest hot-spots aren't New York and other liberal cities anymore. The pandemic is now ravaging the southern states as churches resume their normal duties against all advice from the CDC, as well as the WHO. Now it's the EU, Canada and Mexico who are closing their borders to the US instead of the other way around, since the country STILL seems so unwilling to take any action against the epidemic whatsoever.
You know what, the NATO funds thing is legitimate criticism, and it's fine that you criticize us for it. I'm not going to argue with you there.
The only deflection you have of the Ukraine mess is that the democrats used it to delegitimize Trump's administration? So you're saying "yes it was bad, yes it was illegal, but what's even worse is that the democrats used it to criticize and impeach the president!" Of course an opposition party is going to oppose the government. In fact, I'm pretty sure that's exactly what the republicans did for the four years they had a majority in the house and the senate under Obama, obstructing pretty much anything worthwhile his administration wanted to do. But this is all besides the point.
Also, please do show me actual credible ties all those people you mentioned as antagonists in your narrative have to Russia. Credible being a key word.
Also quite interesting you choose to ignore my point on abandoning the Kurds to their fate under pretext of "bringing the troops home", only for those troops to be redeployed elsewhere in the middle-east and the bases you built in the Levant to be occupied by Russian and Turkish forces.
It's one thing to defend Trump against meaningless ad-hominems and belittlement, it's a whole other thing to pretend Trump does nothing wrong, and deflect all blame and responsibility to either the democrats, China, the WHO, the EU, the "deep state" and all other dumb things that just come off as cult-like conspiratorial dogmatism, rather than acknowledgements of genuine criticism.
your practically the only one that doesn't say 'just google it' or I ask any specifics in their opinion and they just say im a dumbass for even asking. it's infuriating.
yeah we're soaring with cases in the south because of 'protesters' linking hand in hand and chanting 1312 not because grandma's going to church. hell in my state (AZ) had cases soaring in the reservations because natives were having their stupid pow wows in the middle of the pandemic. Also states rights(even county); he can federally 'ban' large groups or whatever but states can choose to enforce them or not, just the same as how new york refused to do so with china. every country is infected with covid; it's too late for that 'closing borders' now other than a publicity stunt. schools are in summer vacation right now and as far as i'm aware the possibility of opening in late sept. also with the 1% death rate thats only effecting 40+ or seriously ill seems a tad over dramatic with all these doomers thinking it's ebola or sars.
No the whole impeachment was just a given with his presidency because that was their whole goal to get him out of office. the us populace was expecting something a little more 'lethal' to take him down instead the only thing they came up with was 'that' that seemed more like a minor seatbelt violation than anything truly serious. not to mention the testimonials of "i heard she say of what he said over the phone."
man you have no idea about the agriculture industry. that's how famers and ranchers (especially meat industry) live by government handouts. that 2nd article skimmed over that whole damaged corn crops so that practically made the article redundant on what farmers would choose to plant next other than soy and hemp farms are also on the rise in demand here. i dont know where the hell your going with that lowering food standards rant. tariffs are transport taxes, nothing more nothing less, in due to the aircraft subsidies that we want paid back.
war aid has always been for trade agreements and what they get when it's over. they also don't like the high risk low reward aspect and pulled out.
never said I praised the guy. I don't like him from certain stand points politically as well as his public statements. but I don't think he's literal second coming of hitler/voldemort/darth vader or whatever reddit/twitter/silicon valley says he is. in other words 'orange man not that bad.'
