    I read, “If they don’t comply I’m going to hurt the American people again”

    Prez is a figurehead for the party. He lost his marbles, they hold his hand and lead him, he says some dumb shit, but the same bellicose tactics will continue with his successor, presuming they fix elections successfully and keep control after 2028 and given the democrats I do not see what would stop them.

    The party will continue to overplay their hand. They are riding high on looking tough as no one has called them on Venezuela being a military coup, an agreement with Venezuela’s generals to give up maduro with info and standing down, and puppeting their political leadership while generals oversee the concessions of assets, and will handle resistance as will crop up if they extract resources.

    The army of the us would not attempt that without such an agreement. Helicoptors are vulnerable to multiple weapons systems a mobilized country had all around one of their most protected sites. Beyond fixed artillery which is a sitting duck you have machine guns, truck mounted included, rpg’s, other shoulder fired weaponry, manpads, etc. Enough the us could not reliably suppress without an agreement.

    So with no one calling out this being a same old military coup, they look real tough, tougher anyway, and are overplaying their hand, as if everyone will cave. Everyone did cave to the nazis with these same tactics however.

    But these guys are not as capable, they think canada will be austria after greenland is the sudentland in czeckoslavakia, and idk analogies for the rest. Cuba, Iran, are the more likely recipients of attacks in the near future. Bombings, especially of leadership, fucking their economic situation, fundimg, helping, fomenting dissent. Then trying to use that dissent to bomb and strangle their trade.

    Our own econo.ics could take the wind out of our blowhards here first.

    Read this as: „Stupid narcissistic manchild is making lives of Americans who carelessly elected him even harder.“

    Works for me, Donnie.

    Great, the US can live in isolation like North Korea for all I care.

    Let’s sanction the US for crimes against humanity, threatening it’s allies, invading Venezuela, war crimes and raising world tension. Russia got sanctioned for invading Ukraine, so let’s treat the US the same.

    So US businesses (and people) are taxed more if other countries won’t back down from his imperialistic expansion fetish. Sure.
