Gonna rename it the Strait of Trump too.

If he takes it, holds it and ends the Iranian war on terms which allow it to remain ours I’m fine with it.

About three ifs in there between here and there however.

This is Trump negotiation 101. Overstate what you want then you’ll be able to concede down to what you actually want. That way the counter party gets a perceived concession/win.


Yep. Overstatement to get what you actually want.

But this is like the 7th or 8th time he’s tried this….

I think claiming the American strait is a brilliant move, I just worry about birthright citizenship since this would be an American territory now?

You voted for Chase Oliver


And would gladly do it again. Here’s a bit of the foreign policy defined. Not sure how this is laughable versus what we are currently getting. Maybe you can explain it to us?

Close all overseas bases and immediately return active-duty personnel to domestic bases. The cost savings of doing so will be used as a one-time contribution to discharge the interest on currently outstanding Federally guaranteed student loans.

End aid being directed to nation-states currently at war. This includes Israel and Ukraine. While we offer moral support to our friends currently engaged with the enemy, we should not be contributing to extending the fight.

Chase Oliver Foreign Policy Platform

MAGA has an articulated foreign policy platform somewhere right? Right?

K, so you believe we need all the same personnel and equipment if all we need to do is populate domestic bases? Because surely you aren’t advocating for cramming all these soldiers and equipment onto domestic bases that are already as “full”. Thus, now we’re talking about slashing personnel and equipment needs for the military.

And you suggest waiting until the enemy steps foot on our soil before military action is justified or necessary. Strange. Very strange. I can’t begin to imagine a person actually thinking this.

Strange? WTF? It’s literally what the rest of the fricking world does.

The United States military maintains an active presence in roughly 80 to 150 countries worldwide, encompassing an estimated 750 foreign base sites. The vast majority of overseas service members are concentrated in a small number of close ally nations, primarily Japan, Germany, and South Korea.


Do you truly believe they are protecting America somehow?
