Trump gave Europe three weeks to sign off on Ukraine "surrender": MEP
-
risk an American withdrawal from Europe.
Do it, coward
-
Yeah he'll withdraw troops and NATO support no matter how things go in Europe ...
He'll need more armyboots at home defending his regime ... also needs to recoup costs due to losing out on tax income and tariff lies.
Then there is this thing where he wants to give Putin this favor of dismantling NATO.So, his demand was 2% in 2017 ... and countries are exceeding that, Poland is already spending more than even the US, and Germany is climbing, so he upped it to 5% to get the excuse of the US backing out.
Even if they meet 5%, in a few years he'll up it further.
Ofcourse for now he'll assume the NATO members still feel bound to keep supplying intelligence information and buy American weaponry, even if NATO falls apart.

Any American willing to fight Europe is a piece of shit, especially if it’s your job.

The
G2X2.🤮

Lumping the people who didn't vote in as supporting trump is stupid.
In the context of electoral outcomes, it's objectively true. Other than that, I think most of us would agree with you.

Not really, but I expect you to be delusional enough to believe it.

Boy do I wish the EU and the UK would sign an agreement to cut all trade immediately with the U.S. and force the isolation this bafoon pretends they want. Prices will skyrocket everywhere, but the number of dumb Trump followers will fall off a cliff and he would be forced to step down by the oligarchs he surrounded himself with. The market would crash for certain.

I'm confused by what you mean. Yes, if you disconnect from Europe you would absolutely need China's supply chain. And Russia proved it's a very powerful supply chain. Hate it all you want, but without even sending weapons, Russia was able to sustain the war under massive sanctions.
I mean, if Trump actually secures China's supply chain and actually decided war is the best way to resolve Greenland and Panama, well, the world would be completely fucked. There's nothing the rest of the world could do to stop any of this. The horrifying combination of US military, tech and China's production capacity, Jesus fuck that's terrifying.
The worst thing is, this is now a likely scenario. Considering Trump and Putin are both on board, the entirety of humanity is now dependant on Xi not being as power hungry and insane. God this is nightmare fuel.
-
The other four of the Five Eyes should be having a rethink. Maybe there are worse things than losing an eye.
-
Expecting them to defend the USA from Trump is also stupid. They couldn't even be bothered to vote.
-
He is also lying he will hand over Europe the second Ukraine falls or daddy Putin commands him to.
-
Not really, if it came down to a civil war.
-
We'll keep all the non-personel weaponry tyvm!
-
It's about whether US will do the same throw under the bus routine with Taiwan I think. China would love to know that the US won't seriously contest an attempt to invade their neighbor across the strait
-
I kinda doubt China wants to share things with the US. That and I doubt Putin wants the China to be stronger either. I think China would be cool not stepping in the way of the US and Russia so long as they see some opportunities for themselves.
-
I'm not sure what Taiwan has to do with a supply chain, but yeah, Taiwan falling to China would absolutely be part of the agreement. And as insane as what I'm about to say, especially since I'm Taiwanese, Taiwan would be a tiny footnote if this all goes through. It's nuts that the entirety of the democracy's survival is completely dependent on the will of 3 people and 2 of them have already proven to be completely insane and the third one no one is happy with.

Idk anymore. The maga handlers have complete control of the maga cult media machine. I could imagine this happening, and right media spinning up a lie that maga eats up. "Biden did this with the Democrats!"
He encouraged a coup that was recorded, and people all but forgot about it. -
Yeah, but we have to hope as a species that's what China decides. Looking at their history, that's actually likely. But we're basically gambling on a sane decision from the CCP. That's not a place I want to be. Though in fairness, I think most people here would agree with me.
-
They can lie all they want. No trade means inflation. Inflation means markets crashing. It can't be stopped without spreading wealth oligarchs don't want to share with those in need. When people starve, they will murder rampantly to stay alive.
Most of the rich are smart enough to know they only stay rich if the people stay peaceful and mildly satiated. You don't want to lock yourself in with 250,000,000 starving people with guns.

risk an American withdrawal from Europe.
Why is this a threat? Is there a reason Europe would want a hostile country to remain there?
