You know how you see a movie trailer and it looks great but then the movie itself is awful?

This is like that.

I have an open mind, I hear people out.

Do you?

White Western world peoples ought thank their lucky stars Trump is President and not me.

For I would seek unity with China and Russia and I would pour money into black African countries.

Through my German grandmother's bloodline our Germanic people lived in and came out of Hungary. The land the ancient Mongols conquered. And photos of sone white ancestors in her line show them with slanted eyes.

So, to the Russians I would come: "Descendants of the Vikings, the very blood in my veins carries the message of the great Khans: 'Let ALLour tribes unite, that we may conquer the world.'"





What I am saying is I find the constant complaints about how hard Trump is as evidence of American and European weakness, and how utterly pathetic the white Western World has become. Trump still works to maintain your own white and Western supremacy but only makes peace and potentially friendships with humanities Eastern neighbors.

He in no way has decided to overthrow centuries of Western White supremacy by actually turning away from white Europe or white America and flooding money and development into say... black African countries, Latin American countries, or even dark skinned Asian countries. Yet you all whine as if you have ran into Vlad the Impaler. You all are pathetically weak and let China, Russia, and dark skinned worlds see how weak you all are. You are paper tigers hiding behind superior technology and a Hollywood image.

Trump does not turn away from Western Europe enough for me. But then he is no Genghis Khan. And was not elected with a mandate to overthrow centuries of white supremacy initiated by the Western European powers like the British, French, and German. Sure, he is pursuing policies that strengthen white dominance in the USA but that is a far cry from the revolutionary changes I would initiate by helping build black Africa into a "Japan," "France," and "Austria" and in respecting Latin American nations as full indenpendent countries that can partner with the USA rather than being reduced to its subjects and vassal states.

The world is not for the US to give and not for China to take.

It must be difficult to write a well thought out article when suffering from a severe case of cognitive dissonance.
Excellent point.

The US spends $5.5 Billion annually on 85 facilities and military personnel in Japan.

Q&A: How Much Do U.S. Military Bases in Japan and Korea Cost? - WSJ

That's a huge chunk of money. A nuclear deterrent for Japan would be more cost effective for both Japan and the US, and allow the US to use that money elsewhere.

Haha and China is not the Soviet Union.

They have embraced capitalist prosperity and have reaped trillions of dollars in growth as a result.

Ever been there?
I have. It's a miserable place to be. And even worse if you don't live in a mega city.

He and his corruption filled swamp does not give a crap. They only have allegiance to their personal gain and profits regardless of where it stems from. They will probably be in personal business cahoots with the Chinese business ventures that stand to profit. The POS Trump made his rag line in China...didn't he?

the 20% tax on imports will push USA even below Germany's trade since Retaliation will be the norm.
