You’re one of the board liberals. You’re not fooling anyone.

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


Maybe because you literally spend more time on this site than anyone arguing for liberal viewpoints and crying about Trump.

Which policies, specifically?

Try to answer without referencing any person. Just policies or political theory

The OP’s title was taking a shot at British since they were once referred to in common parlance as the British Empire, and making light of their fall. You choose to go on a tangent about the US being more of an empire, and then claimed you never said it.


She said good things about Trump so TDSFP’s brain shorted out and he had to reflexively start nitpicking and “Nuh uh!”’ing.

It’s difficult to have a serious discussion with people who actually believe the British empire is still a thing.

Exactly

How can you have "serious thoughts" about such a silly idea?

It’s hilarious seeing clowns such as yourself and others in this thread immediately pouncing on the argument of who is/who isn’t the “empire”.

Tell us how you know more than Donald Trump about the things mentioned in the video.

You obviously know more than one of the most successful international businessmen in the world who happens to be in the middle of his second term as President of the United States of America.

Just shut up you fricking idiots

There is no empire

As I said, I was only being preemptive for potential gotcha attempts

I know how people will respond and cut it off before they can

Donald Trump isn't a loon and I can't imagine he believes the retardation in the video.

Trump has very little to do with this conversation

I would not insult him by saying he's so stupid he would agree with Promethean Update

Many people believe that the USA has been doing the bidding for the Brits since WW2 and with the Ukraine war, it may not be far off. I think many believe what Trump has done in South America and now going after Iran is really messing with the Empire or I call it the Global Elite.. With Ukraine draining Russia and China of time and money, it gave the USA a perfect chance to pick off Iran... WIll it work, who knows ..

If there is a "global Elite" built around the UK, Russia, China, Iran, and Venezuela were opposing it.

Right. Kind of regarding their Military and Colonies.

However, the old money financial center of the world is still highly influenced by Londinium.

Lloyds of London, not in that district, greatly influences the shipping in Hormuz and the free flow of oil affecting energy prices worldwide.

They answer to the crown, eh?

And there is the second pivot.

And NYC is much more powerful in terms of finance, and has been for decades.

Define "answering to the crown"

You're trying to justify a secondary pivot.

And it doesn't even make sense. Lloyds still exists and is still just as powerful. Lloyds' decisions in Iran actually hurt Trump and the US and exposed our weakness a bit. But that's not some conspiracy just normal calculation of risk. These decisions are actuarial, not political.

So even that pivot that doesn't make sense does not work.
