Hahhah--your utter despair and extreme bitterness fuels us Trump supporters.. must suck for you knowing that no matter how much liberals whine and complain, Trump will still be our President...
I think it was much needed to crush the PC nannies.
His latest to Rocket Man, was spot on and exactly what was needed.
Looky... looky minutes after Trumps ..."and my button works" Rocket Man reaches out to South Korea to talk.
That was AWESOME.
There is only one way to deal with those that make threats on your life.
But if I chose not to be PC correct and call you out on your views you would stomp and pout and turn red and scream about how liberals are so rude...lol.
Come on kids.
You don't like PC when it is tact and diplomacy and you like PC when it protects your delicate opinions.
(and yes kind of works for both ideologies liberals and conservatives0>
So, somehow been nicer and more eloquent will make us more friends around the world. Hate to break it to you hon, but it does not matter, as the USA is never seen in the most favorable terms regardless of who is president. The reason Obama was accepted a little more was because he was willing to offer so much with practically nothing in return. He was a soft submissive man in a position of power which set up the nation for the division and derision we see today.
The big problem for many Liberals in the USA, is the need to use utopian romantic images of the world outside our own to compensate for a lack of real knowledge of the world due to possibly a genuine lack of interest , though somehow to admit the same does not bode well in conversation. They will do most anything to hide their true close minded ignorance. So, in the words of quite a few of our international friends
'Americans are plastic and full of s***e" That goes for Liberals and Conservatives. Well at least the latter does not act pretentious and delusional in how it wants to be seen , just seen of course, image is everything to the Liberals.
Being strong and showing strength will actually develop confidence in the long run. The world stage is becoming crowded with ambitious nations looking after their own & specifically own interests. The USA needs to speak up so it does not get lost in the others' noise.
You know the very idea that we engage the world is a relatively new one, formalized as the Truman Doctrine after WW2. In retrospect, some believe all that approach did was create the arms race and foster the very conditions (Soviet aggressiveness) that it was intended to counter.
Before WW2, Americans didn't have to be the biggest and baddest dudes on the block. (Now to be fair, some of our involvement was to create world conditions that were conducive to US economic expansion but that's another issue ...)
One of the reasons the "USA is never seen in the most favorable terms regardless of who is president" is that we've taken on a thankless role (world policeman) where we tend to be condemned for the inevitable failures from engagement but then also blamed for end-results when we do not intervene.
Hahhah--your utter despair and extreme bitterness fuels us Trump supporters.. must suck for you knowing that no matter how much liberals whine and complain, Trump will still be our President...
Note how he claims that Trump's base in uneducated and spells Trump "tRump"? The liberal left always resort to personal attacks and insults. It's so childish.
Yeah, he’s a big man until he has to defend the country. Neither he nor his spoiled kids have served this country, as much as they talk about loving it. Haven’t you caught on yet? Trump is a big blowhard who loves to be the center of attention. He is a total narcissist. He wants to be President for LIFE. Then pass it on to the moron kids...
Another example of the hateful, liberal left. When did Obama serve our country in the military?
Does he? He says a lot of BS that the world is learning not to take seriously, so he is devaluing his word in the international community.
Meanwhile, you know who is choosing his words carefully and ascending with increasing credibility on the world stage? One Mr. Xi Jinping of China.
It may feel good to you to have a President who expresses himself with the directness of ameathead in the bleachers at a baseball game on his fifth beer, but it won't play to the USA's benefit on the world stage. More mature leaders of other nations are smart enough to see and exploit that.
Kim took him seriously enough to come to the table and apparently agree to pre-conditions before talks can take place.
Jinping is always going to choose his words carefully because he is trying to set him up as President for life. Yet another President for life in a Communist country pretending it's kind of a democracy. Ping doesn't want to be called out for his shanageians like human rights violations, intellectual theft, currency manipulation to just name a few. Trump already called him out to his face on these issues at Mar A Lago and then bombed Syria. The Chinese are patient they will try and hope they can wait Trump out. Meanwhile, Trump has the opportunity to partially re-set some of the damage that occurred under the past 3 administrations.
Let's be honest about something. When President Clinton allowed the Chinese to keep our experimental plane that crashed in the China sea who recovered and sold it to the Russians it accelerated both countries technological growth by decades. Many of our issues can be traced back to the weak leadership Clinton showed at that time and these countries have been taking advantage of us and the world a little more every year since than. The Bush administration was distracted by middle east conflicts and The Obama years were a free for all. All of these things can be traced back to that one incident under Clinton. Russia was BANKRUPT in the 90's BANKRUPT. Much of China was still living like it was the early 1900's. They came very far in a short period of time on the backs of the United States.
Now, we have a POTUS that isn't a politician and won't take crap from no one. There will never be a learning curve with Trump either. He is too pragmatic and unpredictable. While the rest of the world is as predictable as the sun rising in the east and setting in the west.
