When you are a sociopath, helping one little old lady across the street really does not do much to improve your reputation.

The Libyan conflict was a NATO led coalition to prevent Qaddafi from slaughtering his own people.

So we slaughter them instead.

This is a tired worn out excuse. These leaders we depose are fighting the very same people we end up fighting.

It would be easier to note I'm right. Have we been fighting ourselves in Iraq for 16 years?

NATO= https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO

Is America going to weasel out of its NATO obligations and commitments along with all the other deals it seems to be backing out of?

There are no NATO obligations without our pushing them. Nato obligations is just another way of saying "Whatever America wants".

It also does NOT address my point. The people we say foreign leaders are killing are the very same people we then start killing.

U.S. taxpayers have no obligation to NATO.

Trumps "accomplishments" are usually a tweet. Take his YUGE health care that is going to be for everyone and MUCH cheaper. Last week he announced he's "make a deal" for much lower drug prices...but getting drug companies to charge more elsewhere to make up the difference. What an ignorant man!

Yet "Stocks of health care companies rose after Trump's speech" - hmm, if health care companies are going to make less money, why would their stocks go up? Counterintuitive.

Prediction - if Trump survives the 4 years, health care prices will hit new highs (by far) and less people will be insured (%) than before he took office. Now - I know some of you consider that a "win", but it's not.

That was one of Trumps first claims - to back out. Whether or not we do, we obviously can't be relied on to lead.

This is one of Putins goals - break up NATO, or at minimum establish his own made up of Russia, China, Iran, Syria and other countries we have handed over to him.
