America is not Islam. Sorry, but Europe has been overrun for some time now.

Alienating Europe so they get closer to China strengthens China.


Who has been alienating Europe? Biden or Trump?

Most of the European leaders have open contempt for our president and think they are better than him, some of them extend that that thinking to America as a whole. This isn’t me saying all of them im a big fan of places like Hungary, Poland, and a few others.

This comes after we rebuilt their entire continent and made sure they didn’t starve following ww2.

Now we are expected to be enthusiastically running to their rescue? Why? And why do they need rescuing if they’re so much better than us and Trump is an idiot who knows nothing?

I *think* this is a major component of the Iran decision that the administration is not talking about explicitly.
I’m with you.

And we could be completely wrong, but from where I’m sitting, it makes the folks freaking out about it being 100% about Israel owning us seem like shallow idiots.

Again, we might be wrong, but after observing this admin and Trump, it seems clear to me it’s much bigger than just Iran. The Israel shite seems so childish. Arghhh Iraq again! That seems so fricking stupid to me.

Essentially what im asking is do you think Trump has known for a long time Europe is a dying civilization and has been laying the groundwork to move our alliances and partnerships into our own hemisphere and the pacific which we are just now seeing the effects of?



It's a smart move. Would naturally require Canada to tread a little more water too and be less euro-centric.

It’s not 100% because of Israel, but they unquestionably pushed for it and possibly forced us to act sooner than we would have liked.

I’ve been saying it’s not really comparable to Iraq, but I understand the thinking that it could turn into that. I trust Trump not to involve us to that level no matter what Israel (or the evangelicals like Ted Cruz) say, though.

It is, it picks up steam from the children’s podcast influencers

Meanwhile MAGA use to build in Manhattan, now he throws foundation bricks down for the world.

Contrast between small minds and actual movers
