What kind of future do they have?

A world with three power centers.

Putin controls all of Russia and Europe
Xi controls Southern Asia and Africa
Trump controls the Americas (which of course includes Greenland.)

Not clear what they do with the Middle East because MBS, Netanyahu, and Iran won't easily agree to anything.

But make no mistake. That is what this is all about. Literally a new world order.

I have beeb saying this for over a year.
People gave me a hard time and didn't believe it.

But here we are.

While Americans obsess about the price of eggs, the entire world power center shifted.

"People gave me a hard time and didn't believe it. "

Even today, after everything we have seen, these pages (and basically everywhere else) still talk about Trump as if he is stupid and his stupidity will catch up with him.

His is not stupid. He is narcissistic, even sociopathic, amoral, vulgar, selfish, criminal, deceitful, just plain evil. But he is not stupid. We (collectively) are the stupid ones for not facing up to him at the hundreds of opportunities when he might have been stopped.

Under the table. If it actually happened. Which it won't because it's even worse than the first deal that Ukraine rejected.

Eurasia (Russia), and Eastasia (China).

We’re fucked if we don’t do anything about it.

Greenland is a large land mass in the hemisphere that Trump believes should belong to the Trump gang.

And when the Trump gang controls all of the Americas, Panama is a very important "toll bridge".

This is how Trump thinks. He isn't stupid, but he is a simple thinker, never encumbered with complexities of the real world. And that strategic ignorance usually gets him what he wants because everybody underestimates his audacity until it is too late.

We can see 100 posts a day here doing exactly that. I would name some of them, but then I'd get targeted by the flag squad.

Our system has been infested with private equity schnooks who only take and take. I'm ashamed of our country.

transactional society.

Remember how his only problem with the invasion of Iraq was that we didn't steal all their oil...

to rebuild.

Trump is a rapacious monster.

AWAY!

Trump will prioritize "the Deal" over any long term analysis of how good that leaves anyone and certainly Ukraine and the EU are not in the ranking of priorities so I hope (and suspect) they realize this. If, and I doubt this is true, the EU could give Ukraine the same or better military, intelligence and economic assistance than the US, clearly it would be in the better interests of both to make a similar deal around resources and reciprocity. Certainly Trump, and now by reality, the US is not the best long term partner here.

the EU the UK, Japan, Australia and other countries have already increased military spending and aid to Ukraine. American intelligence and aid is quickly becoming unnecessary

he's a mafia don.

DOGE:
Department of
Oligarchs,
Grifters and
Extortionists

the U.S. to be isolated. If these demands on our allies continue we won't have a friend left in the world. In this instance though, his demands are especially egregious with Ukraine fighting a war of national survival.

Extorting in full view. He knows no one will stop him.

We can't take 4 years of this much less 1. I'm sorry to say this won't be over in 4 years.

After hearing JD Vance et al. calling Europeans freeloaders and balking at bailing them out again they see that this administration is anti-europe. I hope they collectively tell trump to go to hell.

He wants greenlands natural resources too.

Is he going after Africa for their minerals too? Yet?

I.hate.trump.

And guess who’s stepped up and said we’d be happy to help…China

have your back:

Trump wants to take their revenue sources as payment for Biden helping them protect democracy.

The Art of the Steal.

Get control of the monster you created. This is all on you!!!!

Especially as Europe is starting to step up with more support and with no extortion attached.

Trump needs to be indicted by the Hague as an international terrorist!!

President Zelensky will never go for that. Just like the nonsense in the last deal, he essentially told the orange buffoon “I will not bind the next ten generations of Ukrainians to such a debt.”

Is anyone truly supposed to believe that he would straighten up and fly right if we didn’t send him to prison?

convict him at impeachment.

I don't even know what else to say anymore. It gets worse everyday.

demand anything at all from Israel or South Korea etc. for our continued supply of weapons etc. The revenge of Crumb The 1st all because they wouldn't phony up dirt on Joe Biden. What a pathetic and tiny, tiny man.

Crumb The 1st would nominate would all be Russians.

Trump makes me ashamed to be an American. One thing is certain, Trump and his cabal of minions have destroyed the benevolence of our people. For all of our country's bad behavior, we used to care about others, especially allies. Ukraine should have kept their nukes. Sad to say.
