Real people will die if he becomes POTUS again and yet America minces words about what kind of ideology he represents. He better hope the mob doesn't ever get their hands on him.
Anyone wondering why the rest of the world has begun taking the US less and less seriously and has begun distancing themselves from any decisions we make, you can thank this incompetent orange retard for the ludicrous amount of damage he did to the US's soft power.
The only time in the history of NATO that article 5 was invoked was on September 12, 2001.
NATO countries sent soldiers to Afghanistan in support of the US. A two decades long war. I'm personally from a NATO country and have two family members that have PTSD because my country honored the agreement and supported the US after it was attacked.
The US has never engaged in a war to support any NATO members. NATO members have engaged in a war to support the US.
Recruitment numbers are down in my country in large part because of how the war in Afghanistan turned out. That was in large part due to the US going on a little side adventure into Iraq. Because of this, even though my country is purchasing equipment from the US defense Industrial complex (which if we're being real, is what the goal is) we don't have enough military personnel to operate that equipment.
So with all that, shitheads in the US complain about my countries "not pulling their weight". We've been sending our people to fight in a US war for two fucking decades because that's what allies do, but then shitheads in the US don't care about that, they only care about how much money is coming from NATO to the US defense industrial complex? It's craven.
And Russia propaganda and election interference is happening in every NATO country. For the same reason that there are many in the US don't think the US should support Ukraine, there's many people in other NATO countries that think the same because of the same Russian propaganda effort. Instead of being hyper-focused on the revenues of Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, maybe think a little more about who the real enemy.
Sometimes I like to imagine that trump is actually an elaborate honey pot, and any day now all of his supporters are going to be rounded up for being treasonous idiots too dangerous to leave unattended. But no, people really are that awful.
The guy's fool and a security threat. He should be in a cell, not on television.
Quick reminder: NATO's collective defense clause, also known as Article 5, has only been triggered once. It was invoked in response to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States.
Had he just said that NATO countries are failing their duty as a member as they're not paying the agreed amount of money for the alliance he would actually sound sane. Most Europeans agree to that. The governments have been slacking for years, and now there is a war. Again.
This is really laughable. Trump is bitching about not paying bills? Trump? They guy who's lawyers need to sue him to force him to pay his bills? The guy who robbed money from his charities for himself? That dude?
He means that Europe got complacent with Russia, which it did, but he's not some genius for seeing that. It was a known issue and let's say that Europe has learned it's lesson. He just was typically dumpass trump and threatened his allies over small issues, instead of using diplomacy.
Now saying that he'll encourage Putin to attack Europe (good luck with that one, btw) is again stabbing his allies. He doesn't understand that America is worth shit without those allies, because of course he doesn't because he's trump. Be proud of being dumb.
My only hope with a second Trump term is that when he inevitably drags the US out of NATO, the other member states invest more heavily into their military budgets, rally to support each other and make it a true defensive pact.
NATO would definitely feel the hit of losing US support, but I don't think this will tip the scales in Ukraine. If the other states chip in, I think they'll hold out.
It's more hilarious that the Republican Party have managed to dupe their own stereotypically patriotic supporters into allowing them to sell out to Russia. Aren't they forgetting the decades of anti-Commie propaganda being fed to them?
I'm over the insane sewage that spews from his mouth and not clicking on any trump articles (ragebait) ... fuck the news they are salivating at the money if he is president again.
So if anyone is feeling generous I'm a little OLL could you explain what these like dumbass ok hands are??? Is he about to do the batman hand mask?
Can we just start encouraging people to attack Trump instead? How is it that people like Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, John Lennon, JFK, and others can get gun-downed by random psychos, but one of the worst humans to ever exist is still skating by scot-free? Will no one rid us of this turbulent Trump? (obviously I'm being satirical here)
If that dick sucker gets back in we are closing our borders so fucking fast. Also Canada is part of the British commonwealth so we know what side the UK will be on if this idiot tries anything.
