Okay, these two in particular feel like the pots calling the kettle black.
Don’t get me wrong, the foreign policy of the US is beyond a train wreck right now and we’re doing damage that will take decades to undo.
But the US being terrible doesn’t mean these guys are good.
damage that will take decades to undo.
Extremely unlikely to ever be undone IMO, decades may as well be never. Otherwise, agreed.
What do you expect when Americans elected the most irresponsible person we could find to the presidency?
Not once but twice and to many still dont admit wrongdoing.
I bet Trump, still all giddy from his pointless China trip, be all:
I'm laughing my ass off Trump went to Beijing and got the half assed treatment. As soon as he left Putin turns up and it's full on friendship and red carpet.
He must be fuming
These bitches are worse than a grip of jr. high school girls at a sleep over.
The instant one of then isn't in the room, all they do is talk shit about the other one.
Say the invaders.
Didn't Trump say that Xi told him he was going to take a harder line with Putin?
It used to be that the US commanded some respect, but now we put a clown who always chickens out in charge, this is what happens.
One of the few good things about this mess is that the US no longer commands respect.
Aww, did having an unrestrained orange shitgibbon in charge of US foreign policy stop being fun for the corrupt authoritarian regimes?
No, they're just posturing while they can. I'm 100% both are thrilled with everything going on.
Which authoritarian regime at you talking about here, exactly? US or something else?
Russia and China, the big brother regimes that Trump admires and tries to emulate except he's impulsive and incompetent so it's affecting their ability to maintain control over global economics.
Why is this all so predictable?
Game recognizes game.
Look who's talking
And we're not sending the CIA in, why...?
