Stick to the topic. Who negotiated missle defense for SK for this particular system? That person left us exposed for $1B we don't have.


I answered the question, it happened in the last president but its the same gov't that has been doing it for years due to its relationship with the MIC. Trump has shown he isn't against the MIC either, its a mess.

We should become the security monitor like the ADP commercial.

Hey SK, NK just attacked you. Good luck.

The man basically goes out of his way to alienate long-term allies.

On the other hand, US taxpayers are paying a lot of money for the defense of other countries.

Except we still have troops stationed there that need that defense. If NK attacks we still go to war regardless. We don't really hold the cards in this one due to the tension and aggressive rouge state in the region.

I wonder if he has the balls to say the same thing to Israel.

I doubt it though

I missed your response saying it was Obama that negotiated the $1B privilege of protecting SK with our missile defense system. My bad.

At least Trump is trying to get these countries to see the light. It seems that he's listening to voters because more and more appear to want to stop doing this stuff for free.

Everybody wants us to come help them, but once the threat is over they want us out ASAP, while calling us imperialists.

I agree with Trump on this, but he is all talk and nothing is going to change.

This is a horseshite question.

No President has the balls to say this publicly. Otherwise, they'd never be President.

You don't have to hold the best cards to win the hand.

I am with Trump on this.

Samsung BY ITSELF could easily pay for this.

Short term stance, sure.

Long-term, more and more people are starting to agree with his stance. The people must demand it.

Forrest and trees. I know you hate the man but this is a step in the right direction.

You might be right. We'll have to wait and see. I am a bit taken aback with poster like Montanagator that does a knee jerk reaction to whatever trump does.
If he pays the billion dollars, we shouldn't be in South Korea. if he doesn't pay the billion, then he is ticking off "long time valued allies".

Yeah they sure do. Wow Americans are so fat and Stupid ahahhaha. OMG an evil regime has now taken over my country, America you are heartless for not helping! I thought you cared about democracy!?!?! /s Lets SK be. If you can't pay for the defense yourself or to subsidize it, then I guess it is not important.
