With Trump In Office, New Relevance


One can easily see a nuclear war starting based on the latest Trump tweet could they not?

It's funny reading this thread after four years of the Trump administration. I bet you didn't think he would have a Nobel Peace Prize nomination, eh? Now you have a senile old man in the White House.

yet no wars of any type were started during the Trump administration. Any thoughts on that?

reply

Our current and inept administration has already caused too much damage to the world, and all we hear are crickets from the cowards..

We were way better off with Trump as potus.

It's simply unbelievable that there are still a core group of the brainwashed that still think highly of this guy that even his best advisors called a moron and idiot.
Trump was a crap President, a criminal and a powermad wannabe dictator.
Biden not doing great, but at least competent.
But it all may be moot if we have a nuclear war.
What the F is wrong with you people?

reply

What made Trump a wannabe dictator, while others have stated he was a dictator? just asking.

reply

I didn't think so before, but I do now! Biden is a disaster.

reply

It means nothing. Trump almost started a war with Iran, and he sold out the Kurds. And he let the Saudis know they can murder anyone in the world if they want to and America is OK with it.

It's politics, if the Trump administration were to have done something regarding the horrid death of that reporter then the arms contract between the US and SA might have failed; thus, Russia would step BACK-IN and sell their weapons and make cash-money. Trump and DOD saw it fit to offer SA weapons, whilst excluding Russia from earning sales of military weapons. *Remember, India was to initially make a deal with Russia before the administration step'd in.

For me, it seems like it was a Faustian bargain of sorts. Either the US makes money by selling arms to SA, or have another opposition super-power [Russia] make the sale.

My gut feelings lead me to believe the opposite happened with India and Russia arms deal. Seems the US didn't want anything to do with selling arms to India even though Russia was willing to, thus Russia did sell arms to India and the US gains nothing but lost more power and authority in the international community. We need a better president right now because Biden isn't cutting it sadly.

I hear the sound of crickets...

American should trade with the Russians ... they get Trump, and we get Putin.

Yet nuclear war did not happen under Trump and is a realistic possibility under Biden
