Don’t threaten me with a good time. It’s obviously just dumb scaremongering, but Trump is known to flip on policy on a whim so maybe 🥺
If a president were to attempt to leave NATO there would be a JFK type event orchestrated real quick.
I wouldn’t be so optimistic. The U.S. might just work with NATO “in secret”.
I didn’t mean that in an optimistic way. I just see how important NATO is for the US permanent war economy and can’t imagine the capitalists letting that cash cow go without a serious fight. Kennedy was also very likely killed because he wasn’t receptive to the permanent war economy. I also don’t see a whole lot of secret control happening what with how public weapons deals need to be, and it would be completely obvious when the rest of NATO would just mysteriously do what’s in the US capitalist’s best interests rather than their own capitalists.
critical support for Trump winning 😄
Anybody who thinks they have to side with Bolton really needs to do some soul searching.
I want NATO disbanded, but the reality of the world we live in makes that pretty fuckin risky…
There’ll never be a day where I’m a Trump supporter; but I can say with confidence that deserting NATO is the only decent thing he’d do in office.
Yeah, I doubt he’d do it, but it’s funny seeing actual Republicans being against foreign wars and NATO for what seems like the first time in 30 years.
He usually seems to go with whatever gets the biggest reaction, so who knows, maybe he’ll break away and finally start his war on Denmark over Greenland like he always wanted.
Yea? NATO? Like leaving that giant military infrastructure that is the basis for western peace? Who do you think will profit from this? Who profits from Brexit, from destabilising western allies? How did Brexit go for Britain? Americans always think they are the only once doing stuff for nato bit that is so damn incorrect. USA profits from so much within nato. Bases around the globe, knowledge, expertise, shared intelligence… Yeah we get it you do pay a whole lot of fucking money but do you really think it would be less if you left nato? It would be the opposite. And alone is never better against anyone than allied. Or would you rather go fight twenty Boxers with two hands and no talks and compromises needed or with another 30 organised men with different skills and talents who are sometimes smaller than you but never the less talented in different martial arts?
I’m curious about the quality of the peace that the Nazi Arming Terrorist Organization allegedly upholds.
And he acts like that’s a bad thing?
This is just Trump and people burned by him infighting in public. These two in particular blame each other for:
- The political hostage taking of Meng Wanzhou
- Assassination of Qasem Soleimani
- The JCPOA (Iran deal)
Didn’t Bolton after being sacked wrote angry book where he accused Trump of being the least bloodthirsty republican like it was the worst betrayal of their ideals ever?
