America under President Trump

Gulf war one yes. Not part 2. Were allies. Key word is were. That's where this "cold war" began, did it not? -

No trump didnt, but he inherited the mess. Canada was not part of it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_and_the_Iraq_War Putin has been compared by many to Stalin. Need I say more? -

Cannucklehead replied to betsy's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
No, I wanted trump to "save the day" because america is what caused this whole mess in the first place. But you'd rather he turn tail and run, hoping that someone else will clean up the mess. That's what putin is now doing. How very mature and responsible. Maybe we should give trump a nobel? -

From your article: This is an uncomfortable truth because it leads us to painful reflection on the aftermath of removing Saddam Hussein from power, losing nearly 5,000 American service members in Iraq and spending trillions on rebuilding that country-- twice. It's easy to forget we footed the bill to rebuild the Iraqi army after it crumbled when ISIS crossed into Iraq. I guess now you'll retract and call it fake news. like i said before, gibberish is all you have. You are just regurgitating the garbage that trump has brainwashed you to believe. -

But analysts and politicians said Trump declared victory for a crisis along the border of Turkey and Syria that was arguably of his own making, while underplaying the reality that he has strengthened the hand of Russia. Critics also say the move will roll back advances made by US-led forces in the fight against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS) group. The president also still has work to do to repair the political damage he has done within his own base among those who say he abandoned the Kurds, longtime US allies who fought side-by-side with American forces to beat back ISIL in northeast Syria. Yeah they are clueless and moronic in comparison to trumps "genius". -

Like I said before, Canada went into syria to stop isis. We did. Now trump has left to allow them to escape and reform, allies to burn and russia to take over. We do our part and NATO was satisfied, but america is not. So is america NATO now? So america wont stand against the commies huh? Figures. -

Yeah like handing syria over to russia. Keep playing checkers like that and see when russia calls checkmate. Trump has really rubbed me the wrong way with the way he talks about Canada and how NATO is "useless" in his opinion. Case in point: https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.mtlblog.com/amp/the-trump-administration-is-officially-calling-canada-a-national-security-threat And of course, who could forget this one: https://www.google.ca/amp/s/nationalpost.com/news/canada/didnt-you-guys-burn-down-the-white-house-trump-uses-war-of-1812-to-justify-canada-as-security-threat/amp The stupidity of his accusation is mind boggling and laughable considering his claims to be a "genius" and yet shows little knowledge of american history, let alone world history. As for NATO: https://m.dw.com/en/donald-trump-on-nato-top-quotes/g-44588734 Does a person who calls an alliance obsolete and useless, and yet complains about its lack of spending sound sane to you? -

Yeah why would a Canadian care at all about NATO when americans talk about it. Americans are not members right?????? Trump may be winning at checkers but he is losing at chess. -

Well that's great for progressive americans. I am Canadian. It's a game, like chess. Trump is just too busy playing checkers. -

Wont argue on Sanders, he called it North america treaty organization. Guy is a few donuts short of a dozen. Obama wanted more Canada spending in NATO because of the crimea annex thing, because he knew sanctions would not stop russia, as we are now seeing that they are able to take syria thanks to trump pulling out the troops. That's why they are raising the limit in 2024. -

https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.politico.eu/article/trump-at-nato-from-sad-to-tremendous/amp/ Yeah that's because trump doesn't really live on earth, as the saying goes. And then he cozies up to putin like they are in some kind of bromance while flinging mud at his allies in nato. Guy changes his mind faster and more often than I switch gears when driving. And people wonder why I call him a paper tiger.... -

All I hear is gibberish from someone who has no clue about anything and is in no position to decide nato affairs. Advise trump to pull out of nato if you are so concerned about your dime while your leader blows it on a wall an eight year old girl can climb in seconds. And no, the public doesnt have a right to know. One Republican who has been able to attend the proceedings, Rep. Chris Stewart of Utah, acknowledged that the closed-door nature of the impeachment proceedings are consistent with the House’s procedures. “This may be within House rules. That’s not the question. The question is, is it a good idea to impeach the president in secret hearings?” Stewart said. “This may very well be within Chairman Schiff’s and Nancy Pelosi’s authority to do this. I think it’s a bad idea.” Dont like the rules? Change them or live with it. -

https://www.google.ca/amp/s/globalnews.ca/news/5494990/nato-secretary-general-meet-trudeau-toronto/amp/ I guess you're running NATO now huh? Yeah we know, not enough. Just like afghanistan and our non involvement in Iraq. Transparency is great, but some things need to be revealed public at certain times. Kinda like those JFK documents the CIA refuses to release after 50 years..... -
Probably because he spent 46 billion in repairs to the nuclear power plants. Gum and duct tape wont cut it.

Is Justin Trudeau the most divisive PM in history?

Cannucklehead replied to Argus's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Lol campaign ads are still up. Maybe in four years Dougie. They do it by subverting and challenging symbols of national unity: the flag, the anthem, holidays and public statuary, even the military if it comes to that. When it comes to “Wexit” I am not even so much scornful of the practicalities as I am skeptical of the underlying mentality: until I see an Alberta hockey crowd boo “O Canada” I think we will go on pleading futilely for more “conversation” in the national agora. -
https://www.rudaw.net/english/middleeast/syria/231020191 Unbelievable that they can allow this kind of atrocity. I hear the u.s. has been bombing their own bases now so the russians cant have them.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/oct/23/donald-trump-immune-shoot-fifth-avenue-murder I think it's true, testimony about quid pro quo is irrelevant when he can get away with murder. -
Go to private dealers and it's the same thing. Probably even worse. http://www.gold-quote.net/en/articles/fake-tungsten-gold-bars.php Filled with tungsten from the u.s. treasury. Only way to protect yourself is to request a test upon purchase. Costs you a bit more but you are guaranteed authenticity.

The Spectacular of Peaceful Protest in Hong Kong
Cannucklehead replied to xul's topic in The Rest of the World
https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.ft.com/content/1d76126a-bedc-11e9-b350-db00d509634e I think I know why trump thinks they are riots and not protests: https://www.google.com/amp/s/abc7.com/amp/politics/trump-supporter-arrested-in-bear-spray-attack/5636430/ It's ironic how the two end up on the same side of brutal assaults. Maybe america can buy Hong Kong and give them "liberty"?
