I don't think everything Trump had done is bad. As I've said before, pushing back on China was a great thing. (However, opening your arms to Russian sorta negates that to some degree) I'm also ok with Muslims being kept out. Although I'm against the racist stuff, people choose their religion so I don't buy into that liberal shit of accepting of all religions. Probably a few other things I am not remembering.
Here is a quote from a friend of mine. I believe he is very smart and super skeptical. Not very good with words however, but he gets the point across. Very much so identifies with Republican and considers himself one.
btw My cellar > your life. lol
1. Trump greenlighting ANWR, Dakota Access, and Keystone weakened Russia's position in the world oil market. Putin was not pleased.
2. From the day he took office Trump has been vocally pissed off at NATO member Germany for planning to buy billions of dollars per year in natural gas from Russia. He said "we are supposed to protect you from Russia and you pay billions of dollars to Russia?" He lambasted Merkels's ass. It's taken some time but Germany has come around to thinking about nixing the deal. I don't think Trump made Putin's day with this one.
3. Trump rebuilding the American military did not make Putin happy.
4. In 2018 Trump expelled 60 Russian diplomats and closed the Russian Consulate in Seattle.
5. Trump harshly criticized Putin over his support of Assad and a Syrian chemical attack. He later bombed Syria in response.
Cunt, can you name anything Trump has done to make Putin happy?
Trump has not be positive towards NATO in general. I don't believe he has done anything overt (yet) but has made statements and such. This is the thing that really matters. Google Trump's views and statements on NATO.
#3 wouldn't make Putin happy, but it isn't that big of a deal as they don't plan on any direct conflicts. The more we deficit spend, the worse off we are in the longrun. I hear how Trump is a peaceful President and all that, but it isn't a very good point given how much extra he's spent on military.
1,2,4,5 are all perfectly valid points but just not really important.
Anyway, as someone on twitter said and I think it is worth repeating.
Trump gets in the way of smart people doing their job. Biden will get out of the way.
Hopefully I take a break from this forum. I'm pretty sick of Trump. I don't mind that people vote for him, I just hate the hero worship. It has really hurt some personal friendships of mine. I fuck with you guys, but in real life it just disturbs me deeply. People whose friendship I value have such a man-worship thing going over Trump.
Trump is basically a successful Rob Singer.
Think about that and goodnight!
