It’s great fun to watch all you little girls run around like chickens with your heads cut off yelling, “Orange Man Bad!”

Chickens with their heads cut off can't yell. But they could fart, "Orange Man Bad!" Better actually.

When it comes to Ukraine I believe he has allready done maximum damage, aside from lifting the sanctions or starting to support Russia directly that is but that one might be to hard to swallow for the republicans that still are more "traditional republicans" as opposed to "MAGA".

Before Trump I remember there beeing a lot of talk about the american military industrial complex and its sway in politics, this seems to have been greatly exagerated since Trump does not seem to care about the possibility of arms sales abroad as a way to offset percieved or real trade deficit
It seems that some of the arms transfers he stopped were for orders of american defense materials that has allready been paid for, that would probably lower confidence when it comes to buying equipment from US.


Regarding NATO he has allready destroyed confidence in USA honoring article 5 and probably the only remaining damage to be done is for him to withdraw all american troops in Europe and then of course also to publically say that the US is leaving even thought he cant do it de jure since it requires to many votes in the senate/house than the republicans can swing by themselves.

Of course he could make good of the ideas hea have been floating about attacking Canada to force an annexation or Denmark for Greenland but I guess that would also be hard to sell to the more traditional republicans.

When it comes to trade I guess he could further upend international trade by higher tariffs but perhaps it would be hard in the short term to actually do much more damage than he is allready doing.

I guess there might be other damage to be done but I cant see it right now, but perhaps he will still be able to surprise

The fact that people not in the United States don’t like President Trump tells me all I need to know.

Go Trump Go!!!

Given how vengeful he seems to be I’ve been waiting for stormy Danials to have a thinly vailed accident.

I understand anyone that is not in favor of a second Trump term is going to take any negative position. The lowest hanging fruit is his rhetoric. I am older than 8. I do remember this exact same criticism of him during his first term. I actually criticized him for what he would either say or post on social media.

I also remember that he would work some impressive deals on a global stage. I am taking a back seat on the Ukraine discussion until results have been provided, based off of these negotiations. Being patient might not be entertaining on this forum. IMO it is a rational stance.

I don’t remember Biden ever being effective in providing a solution to end this war. He did love providing tax payer dollars, either in currency or military hardware, to support Ukraine. I do not want to see people lose their life or livelihood. I am just hoping for some way to negotiate a lasting peace. I am much more confident in Trump providing that than I was with the previous administration.

The wisest among us right here folks.

Any chance leaving them in the lurch will result in Z running back to the negotiating table? As in this is just another (extreme though it may be) negotiating tactic
