i do like the direction of nato now...germany starting to make some big investments and talks about china
so whatever it took to get them here...i'm good. the more they spend, maybe the less we have to...germany talked about that also
|

Trump was the only President that actually shamed them and I guess it worked.
All previous Presidents wanted our Nato allies to pay more, but they all smiled and said 'fuck you'.
Trump actually called them out constantly and made a big deal about it. He was an asshole but got several of them to pony up.
|
|
it aged pretty well for him...the UN speech where germany was laughing at him
where will this lead in russian leadership? we shall see. if he retains power, it will be hell for the russian people

People don't give Trump enough credit for his accomplishments. Getting NATO allies to pony up their share was a big thing. All of the previous Presidents asked kindly and our allies basically said fuck off.
Trump said, pay up or maybe we will have to leave NATO and you all can figure it out. I am sure he was never really planning to leave, but it did shake the trees and got a number of nations off the dime.

That was the problem, even with trump, - They asked.
Instead, they should've just announced the U.S. was cutting it's nato contribution 25 - 33% over the next 4 years.
Then tell the nato nations they've got 1 year to figure it out before it starts.
See how easy that was.

that would have been met with the same exact reaction from nato countries and the people that were looking for all the reasons to get trump out of the WH
the dude was the exact right dude to make waves...with nato, china, and take on the crap in the US. he served his purpose...everyone owes him a R/T
|
|
The same reaction until the contribution was cut 5 -6%. Then they could scramble.
It's what I would have done. At some point you just have to do it - if nothing changes then nothing changes.

Anything to this into a Trump suck off contest.
|
|
you owe him an R/T btw...so hop to it
|

Trump even questioned the need for NATO as it was a founded to stop the Soviet Union and communism. The Soviet Union ceased to exist decades ago. This raises the question would the war in the Ukraine have started if Trump were still President ?

all about bluster and negotiation
everyone does it

going to be on biden's record...bringing putin and xi down
i'll take it

Of all the half assed apologisms for the Trump cataclysm this one is the most annoying and ignorant. Trump had the geopolitical strategic thinking of a drunk chimpanzee playing Risk. Ask the generals who served under him.
As much as we all rejoiced when mighty Romania increased its NATO contribution to 2% GDP, the fact of the matter is the Pentagon spends on NATO what the Pentagon thinks is essential to NATO. And it does not consider European hardware and software as equal to American counterparts.
NATO is the most important alliance in history and President whiny bitch almost sank it over bean counting. We would all do well to remember the historical precedent of the Pelloponesian War in which the allies of Athens turned against her and sided with Sparta because of the formers fiduciary tyranny.
The strategic goal of diplomacy and alliance is peace, not money. King Orangutan never understood that. Ask the generals.

yep, just keep loving those generals and their CRT-loving ways
it's always the same shit and hit pieces before election time
how many times have WE seen the list of people signing their name to something...how'd that all turnout?
my favorite was the "17 intelligence agencies" --- everyone repeated it over and over. everyone also had to look them up? wtf are they talking about? who are they? once you got to the bottom of the list...and saw the coast guard, you just had to laugh
the russian misinformation? 50 former intelligence officers signing off and casting dought before the election and keeping the FBI from investigating it properly or even the FBI having facebook and big tech shut it all down. so that happened or no?
in the meantime, Secretary General thanks President Trump for his commitment to NATO
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg thanked US President Donald Trump for his strong leadership and commitment to the Alliance in a meeting at the White House on Thursday (14 November 2019). Mr. Stoltenberg highlighted rising defense investment across European Allies and Canada, amounting to more than $100 billion extra in recent years, adding that Allies are determined to keep up the momentum.
that doesn't sound like the top dog in NATO is concerned about trump and his negotiation style
who do we believe? the people trying to get trump out of the WH or the results and top dog in NATO?
might be a few clips around of a few other things...trump talking tough in europe and the result was?
|
|
he did his job...as fucked up as some like to see it...no need for him to run again, it would truly be a shit show
if he ran...he'd win in 2024

'going to be on biden's record...bringing putin and xi down'
I'd be really surprised if that happened.
Problem with that is that an even bigger 'hard liner' will take their place.
They LOVE their power, privilege and influence and aren't going to give it up without a fight.
Too, we've already seen this when Gorbachev was the leader of the old ussr.
There was a coup by the hard liners. Yeltsin was installed. Then Yeltsin 'retires' and he puts in Putin.
It always goes from moderate ----> hard liner and it never goes the other way. Not in a totalitarian regime.
For it to go the other way you'd have to have a fundamental shift in the way those countries/governments think.
That's not going to happen any time soon.

Trump would of said ; It's fake news. That war is a hoax.
Alex Jones would of chimed in ; Yeah, they are all paid actors. The blood is ketchup.
Then trump would of said ; I just talked to Putin, he told me he had nothing to do with it. He told me it must of been China that invaded Ukraine. And I believe him. I know he was being truthful. Vlad is a very fine leader and his people love him.
Then
Jackalope would of said ; oh shut up See less butts, your a shill. And that's the best I can come up with.
Pairofballsonmychin would say ; yeah he's right
And then pairofballsonmychin would say, "hey jackalope, would you like to be the sixth queerbait at our luncheon. We play grabbadick under the cloth and spin the bottle after a few drinks".
Which jackalope replies Oh Em Gee do you think I can pretend to pass out while the rest of you gangbang me?

HeyI'mADumbase trying to impress everyone with his history learnings, lol
Athens was significantly affected by a plague that wiped out 30,000 citizens, about half its population, prior to the war.
Sparta won that war, then 30 years later lost it all and was absorbed.......never to return to its glory again.
All of this has nothing to do with Trump, although it's true the idiot has no strategic clue whatsoever.
The guy is purely transactional, let's make a deal.
Pretty funny you guys back and forth between Trump & Biden, it's like debating which turd you like better........the dog shit or the cat shit

Pairofballsonmychin
A bit of a take off on my own running gag on Gloomy chafing my balls
But, I like it!
Who wants to bet that Buttttzzz came up with that as his beady little eyes began to focus on that shaft in his orifice and he felt the heavy weight just below his flavor saver............BAM!
Revelation!
|
|
Yeah , I don't even know what you said.
|
|
Wait a got dam minute! I would never quote you! You are so full of yourself....and Pete and Alter and MA1 and PairofBalls and now you're trying to recruit what's his name too.
Instead of 5 queerbaits you want 6. I get it, a six pac, how nice!

About Xi, I doubt it will happen. His new term may be Chinese leader for life.
With no clear heir to try to overthrow him.
|
|
Back on topic, looks like Putin is not going to wait until the vote is over today and announce on Friday the new Russian territories. He will do it today.
Holy shit.
|
|
the pot is being stirred
gaspipes in the northsea have been sabotaged
could be an act of war in a nato country/region
|
|
Some fucking moron said "Trump cataclysm."
Really? Take a look at things now! Easy to stay silent about that, eh lefty???
|
|
nord stream pipelines...damages in different parts of the pipeline
|
|
Definitely sabotage.
|
|
If Trump were president, the Ukrainian war would have been over in 2 weeks. and all the Ukrainians would have been fitted with their new Russian uniforms by now.
Putin would have commanded Trump to sit, and Trump would have got in the face-down, ass-up position like the good little Russian bitch that he is.
|
|
I am pretty sure trump would bend the knees and lick Pustink’s balls too.
|
|
And... back to reality
NEWSFLASH... So Trump was President for four years and during that time Putin didnt do squat about Ukraine because Nordstreim 2 was sanctioned... Period.
Putin did his evil BEFORE Trump, then AFTER Trump but never DURING Trump .
Then Biden fucked up everything by removing sanctions... DUHHH
|
|
those fuckers got puppy swirl and they know it.
|
|
so who did the sabotage to the pipeline?
Ukranie
Russia
USA
are there other players?
these pipelines are basically cast in concrete, you dont just throw a grande at it.. and at around 300 ft water.
|
|
Nah, it is more like Joe is Kicking Putin’s ass so hard in Ukraine that Putin now has a new face. Trump would just pussy up to Putin.
|
|
clearly russians did this - i just have trouble finding the exact motive.
now it seems clear.
force majeure
russians are loosing tons of money on the pipeline as there is no gas being sold.
they are obligated by contract to pay the bank notes unless the pipe line is damaged by act of nature (force majeure)
|
|
i'm pretty sure they did
don't think americans or UKR would chance being CAUGHT at something like this...they have too much to lose
|
|
Hmm, probably the russians.
But, I wouldn't rule out a couple others. Someone that wants putin & russia to look bad and keep the war going.
Not sure if they have the ability to carry it out but I could see the ukraine having a hand in it. They definitely want to keep the war going and are getting a ton of $$$ with no strings attached as well as a ton of weapons ... for free.
That all ends if the war ends.
