The word "Obama" drives Trump crazy. That is true and Trump is crazy, but we are in the process of making a U turn and you can expect all kinds of craziness over the next decade till things get back on track. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Respect for the President of the USA is important for the global Rule of Law and influence of the Western democracies. trump's arrogance, current path to isolation and disregard for the Rule of Law will be proven to be a grave error of leadership, as it has been in other times of history. The United States of America is NOT "Western Democracies". The USA follows US law only unless it decided to do on its own accord. Your opinion is irrelevant. Nations likewise choose on their own accord to ally with the USA or not, and Isolationism is a matter of degree, and needlessly shipping globally serves no purpose other then to destroy local economies for profit.

But curious as to why you would post this as if anonymous sourced drival about private conversations should be taken as fact? It could be propaganda designed to scare the CCP( obviously it has), or a lie, or a false narrative created from mear questions or hypotheticals from a conversation. Yet you post as fact? dude, there are multiple reports that trump and his advisors are "considering" this action. i mentioned it. you asked what i meaned. i told ya. you didn't specifically axe for a quote/link, just an explanation. i went to the trouble to find a link for you. sorry i bothered. 'member, the googles is free for everyone to use. here's another link. to "stars and stripes" so it's gotta be for realz! this one even names a source. In private, Trump and aides have discussed stripping China of its “sovereign immunity,” aiming to enable the U.S. government or victims to sue China for damages. George Sorial, who served as a top executive at the Trump Organization and is now involved in a class-action lawsuit against China, told The Washington Post that he and senior White House officials have discussed limiting China’s sovereign immunity. Legal experts say an attempt to limit China’s sovereign immunity would be extremely difficult to accomplish and might require congressional legislation. https://www.stripes.com/news/us/us-officials-craft-retaliatory-actions-against-china-over-pandemic-1.627937 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that you may understand me that the days of attempting to cajole any nation to get onboard with US policy should be over! You are onboard or you are not. That simple. If you are not, no hard feelings simply take care of yourself. Trade with friends. Don't trade with backstabbers. Bi lateral vs multilateral. Centered on self interest. Disengage from intanglements. Be selective. A lot of nations are going to align with China. Good luck to them and goodbye. As for Europe deal with Russia on your own. US troops should withdraw. Shipping? Defend your own.

Popular Post simple1 Posted May 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2020 5 hours ago, TopDeadSenter said: So you are saying that because liberals assume Trump would comment on politics after his term ends, that it's OK for liberal ex POTUS's to interfere now? You can see a problem with this logic, right? Have liberals ever been wrong about Trump since he won? How has their record been for guessing his actions? I'll just leave it at that! trump has consistently been openly extremely negative towards Obama's term as President since gaining power. Indeed trump goes as far as taking actions to spitefully reverse Obama's legislation to the detriment of the environment and so on. Evidently trump believes it's a one way street. Well guess what, I bet the majority agree with Obama's critique of a President's chaotic talk fests & actions during a national crisis. A President who uses his Office to repeatedly and publicly to scrape the bottom of the barrel with his attacks on US citizens who disagree with him; it's been well overdue for a push back. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every President reverses the executive orders of previous Presidents. Look it up. I hate dealing here with non-Americans on US policy....they all think they know something...but they dont. Obama is the mouthiest, most interfering with current policy, former President in US history. If Trump tried this <deleted> after 2024 I would tell him to <deleted> as well!

I don't like Trump at all and haven't for more tha 40 years. None of that contradicts that the reason he was elected was becauseof the failures of several preceding presidencies. Trump was a "Hail Mary" pass in the hope America could break free of the steady down glide slope she wason. Clearly, he's not the answer, but he IS part of the process of getting back to where we need to be. These things take decades. Both on the upside and the downside. Good post. yes i agree a reset was needed however, having someone so inept and incompetent as president, especially in this time of the virus, people have now realised they went too far and will not trust such an important position to anyone so untrustworthy again for a long time. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today's youth are well and truly fed up with affirmative action, open borders, the breakdown of law and order in states like California, and a hateful mainstream media. Just look at Nick Sandmann, who was attacked and vilified - OK come we all remember the threads on his big day out. Stories like his of kids defeating the giants of globalism are truly inspiring.
