Donald Trump has pissed off most of our allies. Would our allies have our backs if an American ship is attacked in the Gulf?



With Trump at the helm, it's questionable.


Here is how Bloomberg News looks at it: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/ar...n?srnd=premium

Would they want our help if they were attacked?
Yes, I think they would come begging.

Don't think we need their help if one of our ships was attacked in the Gulf.

Remind me again which countries are "allies" of Washington.

Washington doesn't have allies. It has some client states, that's about it. And it was that way long before Trump.

Bloomberg news? is that yet another far Left 24/7 Trump bashing network that will no doubt go bust once Trump is done with his terms?



The problem with these so called news outlets is that they give too much power to Trump. Of course there are many foreign leaders that don't like Trump but how many have come forward to hand back the foreign aid the US sends them?

Trump is one man that the Left has decided to elevate to a lofty position that dominates the news but America is bigger than that.

I would say that Trump has "pissed off" foreign leaders because he has called them out but none have renounced our help and they would come to our aide if needed as we would go to theirs.



Trump is living in the Left's brain.

We've seen a similar story before.

Trump gets crucified and Romney gets three pieces of silver.

It is actually thirty pieces of silver; unless you are suggesting Romney is a lightweight piker...

In which case... carry on!

If there are Americans in the water, any friendly in the area would be expected to help.
And that wouldn't be limited to picking up Americans in the water.

After 8 years of doormat diplomacy, President Trump has us back on track to be respected around the world again.
