Like Trump said during the campaign " countries should pay their fair share".


That means that sooner than later the UN will be non existing or more of a joke.

In the past we have seen speeches from dictators while people walking out when Netanyahu was speaking.

It is time to stop this non sense that cost a lot of money.

I thought Trump was a leader, why does he have to follow anybody?

Saddam Hussein said "screw the UN" too. However, you right wingers thought UN authority was just dandy. Especially when it gave you the pretext for war.

So it was useless when we pointed out violations of UN resolutions by Saddam Hussein so that we'd have a pretext for war?

Why weren't you conservatives talking about how useless the UN was back then? Hell, it could've saved thousands of American soldier's lives.

But no, you all liked the UN back then because it was useful.

Nope. The NeoCons, who supported Hillary Clinton in our recent election (which is very telling about shared values), thought it was dandy. So did Hillary Clinton & the bulk of the Left establishment. The rest of us in the middle thought it was BS.

No you didn't. None of you called BS on it. My memory is better than that and i remember quite well who supported Bush on the war.

And you so called "rest of us in the middle" didn't think it was BS. No effin way. It never happened. That's pure revisionism.
