That is not for you to say.

It's what others think that determines how the world sees a person.

Those who think Trump is anything other than a self-serving clown make people wonder what's under the hood.

No, that's not what it means. And I'm beginning to see what you're saying now.

So what is my kind ? and why would I wear "full maga" gear whatever that is

The US enjoyed a wonderful position in the wake of WWII and large countries trying to deal with massive populations. It had to end at some point in a multipolar world.

Trump has significantly exacerbated what would have been a natural decline into shared preeminence, and may well have made it difficult for the US to even maintain that.

The US still has a massive economy, and is unlikely to become the next Spain or Portugal, who had their moment at the top, but increasingly it looks as if the US will fall to the level of say, the UK. Not totally irrelevant, but living on an increasingly distant past.

I did not want China, with its system, to reach the top of the heap, but it seems Trump is making that inevitable. Trump has alienated all of the US' former allies and made the US a distrusted partner, if even indeed a partner at all.

What remains of actual US power is largely economic. Yes, its military can eradicate all life on Earth, but that hardly would constitute a win. Economic power has become flexible. If countries like Canada play their cards right, they could attract major US entities in industries that will drive the future. Having a stable and predictable central power is a huge plus, and the US lacks that under Trump. He is too capricious, unpredictable and frankly, insane. Some combination of tax incentives, trade deals and stability and predictability in government could well entice companies to abandon the US and move to more welcoming nations. Canada also has a major plus as a resource rich nation, which broadens the range of companies who could be enticed. Nations are increasingly just an address. Canada could even entice the entire US western corridor, from San Diego to Seattle, to become the 11th province and secede from the US. Trump would be powerless to stop that.

History is going to judge Trump as the last emperor, a Romulus Augustulus or something similar, though more than Augustulus, Trump will have hastened the decline of the once major player on the world scene. He is the Ostrogoth who sacked DC. He is the epitome of an "own goal".

but that's one of the main reasons for greenland.

china is way ahead in the rare earth minerals game.

yes, he's ruffling feathers with eu allies. but it's a combination of many things, not just greenland. he wants out of NATO and WEF ...

anyway, not sure how you compute that China will come out on top.

please show us your calculations and spreadsheets and your accounting degree.

He wants similar organisations, with him as the head for the rest of his lifetime, so he can loot the coffers.

He wants to call his own shots, but no way to know if it's good or bad.

Probably best to be suspicious of his intentions with the peace board thing tho fo' sure.

Again , it does not mean he actually means it , he has paid our own Prime minister similar compliments but he clearly and rightfully detests him .

So when Trump says something we needn't believe him? For example when he says, "We must have Greenland", the rest of the world should just ignore him and carry on with business as usual?

An invasion that Trump refused to rule out.

It can only be because I am not in favour of uncontrolled immigration , and do not suffer from a psychological disorder regarding President Trump.

One of them called me a nazi about a year ago , then the virtue signalling and herd mentality of the leftists took over

Now rather amusingly every post I make on pretty much any thread is enthusiastically and very quickly downvoted , by one of the bedwetters, are you involved?

So in general Trump can say whatever he wants, bully and threat nations as also political opponents (called enemies). Pluralism and democratic structures are rejected as inferior.

Right-wing extremists advocate a "right of the stronger" to exclude others, dominate them with violence, or even persecute and kill them.

This finally got countered at the WEF, especially by the PM of Canada, and he had to backpedal.

Then comes from the right: "But that was of course only a joke."

Yeah, good job indeed. Respected again? No way. Garbage only.

Trump said that he was going to impose tariffs and he did. He also said that he was going to invade Venezuela and he did.

Do you see the problem?
