Dude, Trump would be a nightmare on foreign policy. All Putin would have to do is give him a compliment and he’ll start trading sensitive documents with him.
I suspect a big part of the war lust in America is because politicians are getting hand jobs and bribes from people who benefit in the defence industry. Trump is certainly not above being bribed.
The way he spoke to North Korea’s leader whose name has escaped me for now.. king jung un? Or something. The way he spoke to him could have potentially caused a fucking nuclear war. He got lucky and came out of it looking good, there was no skill there just absolute stupid luck.
You want America to pull out of NATO? Wtf? Haha maybe you didn’t mean that? Hopefully not cos that would be crazy and yeah he could well pull the US out of NATO, so again - not good.
I’m not understanding you at all in thinking Trump would be good for foreign policy.
At no point did I say he'd be good for foreign policy. What I said is that he's (incorrectly) accused of stuff that, if true, would be good for foreign policy.
Yes, that's more or less what I meant when I said that, while he isn't ideologically committed to being pro-war, he isn't ideologically opposed either, so the machine can continue uninterrupted.
Yes, I would like the US to pull out of NATO. I'm an isolationist, and I don't see how US global hegemony or adventurism benefits me as an American citizen, or anyone else outside of the elite.
Trump isn't going to pull out of NATO, of course.
