Voyager I posted:Let's not forget that when it comes to deranged foreign policy Trump is already GWB 2.0 This. I think the rest of the world gave us a second chance after Bush. Like maybe they thought he was just an anomaly, that America lost its way temporarily. And Obama I think did a decent job of apologizing to our allies for what Bushs craziness. But I don't think we will get a second chance again. Even if we were to elect the most competent, level headed, intelligent president we've ever had our allies know we will only be 4-8 years from electing another psycho fascist. Their foreign policies will probably become more insular, isolationist, and probably right wing without the leadership of the US.

FlamingLiberal posted:If I'm China, now is the perfect time to annex Taiwan without much consequence I used to live in Taiwan. They are fiercely proud of their democracy. They had an election while I was there and it was such a huge deal that I think the riots alone would be enough to scare off China from a full invasion. Most likely they will continue trying to influence their elections through online propaganda and get a pro-unification government in. Russia has already given them a roadmap on how to do it, and China was already doing it before anyway.

Donny hates order and believes that chaotic, unstructured, subservience to his whims is the best way to run a business/government/Wendy's.

It's been obvious from the beginning, but there's math now Thread: "BOMBSHELL: What’s Trump’s most lucrative business? His CAMPAIGN. White collar crime expert @tracygreen followed the money. “PACs, other campaigns and Trump's campaign has spent over over $14 million from 2016 to June 2019 at Trump owned businesses.”" https://twitter.com/heidi_cuda/status/1183196842915291136?s=21

It's not surprising that she's not interested in following their script at all that doesn't really matter though, even career people not on The Trump Train routinely defer to the Executive when it raises the possibility of a claim of privilege. even very nonpolitical people practically never tell the white house to gently caress off like that letter does
