I did not know she was Asian.

Trump saying the USA may abandon NATO protection to fellow NATO countries would cause a massive problem within the NATO council, I reckon the shit cunt thinks he can lock down the US borders and go it alone.

 

Jeremy Corbyn likes this.

What would be the point of NATO then?

[Red Phoenix]

Jeremy Corbyn likes this.

 

I like it too. If he just disbanded NATO full stop I'd like it even more.

 

Anyway, I don't think he'd have the ability to do shit like that. The people behind the scenes keeping NATO going are probably a lot more powerful than Trump ever will be. At least collectively, whatever cabal they are.

And do we eventually make a US elections thread? Instead of having a Donald Trump thread contain all of the discussion as it moves closer.

It's prophetic, I'm afraid.

[TheHowieLama]

Should be a coronation thread.

I can't function/deal with things properly without some type of hope/optimism (well I can, but by being depressed.) so am going to wait and see what happens. It's not looking good though, can agree on that.

One of the two biggest cunts on the planet will be president.

And the other is undergoing knee rehab in a hyperbaric chamber somewhere in Ibiza.

Am going to have some hope that Stein and Sanders have some good cards left to play. Just enough hope to keep me sane-ish.

Never understood why so many lefties hate the idea of countries banding together so nobody attacks them. I thought you were all into folk working together for the common good?

It's almost as if some "lefties" have a rather different idea to you as to what NATO does.

Why would they have a different idea? NATO does exactly what it says on the tin.

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO

 

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO /ˈneɪtoʊ/; French: Organisation du Traité de l'Atlantique Nord; OTAN), also called the North Atlantic Alliance, is an intergovernmental military alliance based on the North Atlantic Treaty which was signed on 4 April 1949. The organization constitutes a system of collective defence whereby its member states agree to mutual defence in response to an attack by any external party.

Ah teamwork. Great.

NATO is the embodiment of working together. Working 'together' with one party calling the shots isn't for the common good. I suspect you know this anyhow.

@Stronts

 

Ha, okay.

[Strontium]

I can see we're entering the realm of conspiracy theory, so I'll leave you to it.

[Jairzinho]

Yes, because anything that veers slightly away from your Disneyworld version of what NATO does is a conspiracy theory.

[Strontium]

Or rather, anything not supported by evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.

Maybe things like this are part of the reason why some would have different ideas : https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/European_Parliament_resolution_on_Gladio

If you keep using the term conspiracy theory to dismiss the idea that nations act in Machiavellian ways to suit their own self-interest then I'm going to start making it an auto-neg. Stop being childish.
