So...we’re paying a country to not give nukes to extremists? Or were paying a regime so they stay in power? Either way is stupid as hell.

I would say aiding terrorists wasn't the smart move. DO you somehow think that the Paki gov't want to be taken over? Hell no. If push comes to shove their choice will be to either A) surrender and be slaughtered by extremists, or B) abandon support for extremists and militarize against them before they can organize against you.

Telling you think appeasement works.

Making these nations choose between billions of dollars in aide and harboring islamic terrorist shitheads? What a novel fricking idea! Damn near 20 years since 911 and someone finally figured this out. Trump understands more than any politician in my lifetime that money talks better than any negotiator on the planet. Pakistan can keep their shitheads, and we’ll just keep out beautiful green american dollars.

So you think it's bribe money then?

Are these extremists just going to walk into a nuke installation and press a button?

It's about time we have a leader with a pair, unlike what we had during the previous administration.

I was lukewarm to the Haley appointment initially, partly due to my disdain of the UN in general, & partly due to her past. Trump absolutely hit it out of the park on this one, however. I am absolutely loving her in this position.
