    While Trump’s tariffs are a disaster for economy, I’m not sure the Dems plan to escalate to WW3 would’ve had a better outcome (except for military contractors).

    Democrats & Republicans are the cause of our problems. Neither can fix things, nor would they if they could.

      Interesting as the Dems plan was to weaken Russia even further while strengthening NATO bonds and ensuring no need for more nukes in the world. Trump’s isolationist plan strengthens Russia and weakens NATO and our allies leading to other countries having no choice but to aquire nuclear weapons themselves for protection therefore furthering the proliferation of nukes and endangering the world.

        Let’s be real, they wouldn’t “weaken russia even further”, their plan was to keep drop feeding aid so that russia wouldn’t feel the full extent of the consequences to their own actions.

        edit: it was also pretty obvious for some that giving up nukes is the wrong move, before that buffoon started making enemies out of everyone

          “War is peace” is your line. You’re the one suggesting we reward military aggression by just giving the aggressor whatever they want.

            Look at a map of foreign troop and missile deployments across the globe for each country, and then try to tell me with a straight face it’s the US who’s the peacekeepers.
