@scottf3456 Yet nobody knows anything about them. Or that they changed the laws to bring charges, or that there was no singular charge to base all the others on. First time in judicial history. I should read the paper? I clearly know more about the case than you do.

Trump thinks he’s a supervillain about to conquer the world, when, in fact, he’s actually tricycle-peddling Cartman screeching “AUTHORITAY” while the world laughs and ignores him.

And he screams “MEEEEEM! MEM!” To daddy Putin when he doesn’t get his way or runs to Fox News as his safe place.

Ya, and they aren’t laughing now are they, China just lost their access to cheap oil from Venezuela and Iran, they have also lost their influence in the western hemisphere and their economies are starting to buckle, Iran has become unstable and the people are overthrowing their dictatorship government and soon Cuba will be freed from the iron grip of communism, not bad for a TACO!

I would agree with you if actually was doing fight for our country , but it turns out he is like tariffs , against his own people, the worst part is he knows it but he doesn’t care, now if that’s what you want, it’s ok for now but we are going to pay a hefty price , also you should know that politicians do not care about people only about themselves, brew on that .

@urielrangel305 I know that politicians always have their own hidden agenda, or should I say selfish interest but sentiment aside we all know America needs a leader like Trump who will at least try to restore their prestige in the eyes of the world

@sparklegideon8590I think you don’t understand that America had prestige, and Trump weakened it during his first term, and destroyed it during his second.
International diplomacy is all about seats at tables. The US had a seed at all the tables, and often the best seat. With its military and financial resources, people cared with the US had to say. And countries that decided to side with the US benefited, so the US benefited from their cooperation. And on the world stage, the US basically had other countries depending on it for defense, and economic prosperity.
Now countries look at the US as a fallen empire. A kleptocratic state trying to expand its territory, like Russia. And they see the president as a corrupt and capricious man, who doesn’t understand what he’s doing, and who’s easily manipulatable. America’s former allies have been forming economic and military relationships without the US, and they will placate their pathetic leader while building up systems to make the US irrelevant on the world stage. Meanwhile China is very carefully biding it’s time, and using its resources to gain all of the soft power that Trump freely abandoned because he is short-sighted. The US doesn’t provide anything besides defense, and access to its market. Tariffs have disincentivized working in the market, and military actions have disincentivized alliances.
America has nothing of value for the rest of the world anymore, and as such no respect is warranted

President Trump picks his fights, obviously not all are worth fighting. He also picks fights to see who is weak, to see who’s “all talk”. In some cases he can’t initiate the fight without provoking retaliation from another.
Lets see what happens when you pick a fight with President Trump!

Taco comes from his supporters on wall street regarding tariffs. Fafo comes from his detractors used to describe his fans who are both surprised and upset that he did exactly what he said he was going to do except he did it to them not just the people they don’t like.

Then there’s the FAFO part where Trump and company find out. He’s isolating us and may find himself in a war with NATO.
