Trump has put on a Master Class of geopolitical strategy with Venezuela and Iran. Russia and China are all. It neutered.

Waiting for the board liberal “smarter than us” intellectuals to tell us how to take this.

What about the non-liberal intelligent people?

When can we comment?

We are much more of an empire than the fricking UK

It's not the 19th century anymore. The British Empire cratered after WWI and was almost completely dead after WW2. They are just a cog off the coast of Europe and haven't even resembled a hegemon for over 80 years.

The Crown has been irrelevant for a lot longer than the British Empire, also

The U.S. is an empire. In fact, it’s the biggest empire in world history. And our “ally”, Israel, has long had imperial ambitions, their goal being the extermination of Arabs and perpetual expansion of settlements across the Middle East. If Trump wanted to end imperialism, we’d have left NATO in 2017, wouldn’t still have a presence in places like Iraq and Korea, and we sure as hell wouldn’t be buddying up with the Zionists.

Why would anyone who understands politics think I am a liberal?

I'm one of the few capitalists left on here. Since when has promoting capitalism and small government been the signs of a liberal?

Trump is carrying out Project For A New American Century global spectrum dominance plans Wolfowitz/Cheney/Rumsfeld dreamt of. How this is somehow anti-empire or anti-globalist is insane.

FFS we were never referred to as an empire in the same way as the British Empire was. Get a grip.

Insert the “what year is it?” Gif. The British empire? Seriously WTF. People will fall for anything as long as it 1) is dark and conspiratorial or 2) if the person sounds serious


You could take the Iran War as a shot across the bow of China but that is about it when it comes to “hidden meaning”.

This lady is a Lyndon Larouche disciple
