Absolutely bonkers that our children will be sent

Pining for the days when we sent our youth to die in great places like Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq?

It's a shame Truman's 100 million dollar bid was rejected back in 1946.
Would have been a strategic and economic win on par with the purchase of Alaska, but not as amazing as the purchase of the Louisiana territory.
 
China has increased its presence in the ports at both ends of the canal. The US has an obligation to ensure the security of the canal. That was part of the deal in the transfer to Panama. We get to ensure to security of the canal and we get access for our navy on an expedited basis.

China doesn't have a say in the matter

Imagine a different country wanting control over the Mississippi river.

It was the called the Confederate States of America, and the Republicans killed 600,000 Americans to stop it.

It would have completely upended their tariff plans, as noted by William Sherman in a letter to his wife, January 20, 1861:

Down here they think they are going to have fine times. New Orleans a free port whereby she can import goods without limit or duties and sell to the up-river countries. But Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore will never consent that New Orleans should be a free port and they subject to duties. The most probable result will be that New Orleans will be shut off from all trade, and the South having no money and no sailors cannot raise a blockade without assistance from England, and that she will never receive.
I have letters from General Graham and others who have given up all hope of stemming the tide. All they now hope for is as peaceable a secession as can be effected. I heard Mr. Clay’s speech in 1850 on the subject of secession and if he deemed a peaceable secession then as an absurd impossibility, much more so is it now when the commercial interests of the North are so much more influential. . .

Ah, so that's why Trump posted a picture of the canal with an American flag in it and referred to it as the "United States Canal"


Because we just need to make sure it's secure, not because he ****ing wants it. Glad someone could translate that stupidity for me.

I can see here that most of you have never staked out a bargaining position before. If you start out with the absurd (taking the canal back) you end up with lower prices and less Chinese interference with the Panamanians. Trump knows exactly what he is doing, all of you whiny leftists, on the other hand are idiots.

I’m already getting nostalgic about Joe Biden ending our involvement in the war in Afghanistan, and Obama getting us out of Iraq. Two Presidents who ended Republican mistakes. Sadly, too many American got duped into the rhetoric about Trump being anti-war, when he dropped record numbers of bombs and killed more civilians than any President this century. Trump will do what he did last time, and increase American deaths overseas. Great job, American voters!

To be honest, it takes equally stupid people to translate the gibberish coming from trump.

Trump knows exactly what he's doing dude, that's why he's never ****ed up any of his other businesses or companies before, or been impeached, or been convicted of a bunch of felonies, or been found liable for rape. The man knows what he's doing, you gross leftists just don't know business.

You also price yourself out of some opportunities. Go to hard and you lose negotiating power. LOL! Talk about someone who probably doesn't understand negotiation

****ed up his businesses? Dude is a billionaire, bankruptcy is a business strategy. Impeached? Impeached by the leftist dems you mean? Liable for rape? I believe that the partisan hack Lyin George Snuffleupagus was sued for slander and settled for making that false claim. Lawfare didn't work you fool, Americans saw through that crap he is our President, America will soon be a much much better place. Let your hate and TDS go. Hanging on to it will only make your life more painful.

I have to say, this sounds like exactly what a normal person would write.
 
Wow too ****ing stupid to even respond with an intelligent argument, typical lefty. You may want to read the last two sentences again and apply it to yourself.
Was he or was he not found guilty of sexual assault/rape? No qualifiers just a yes or no will suffice.

My impression is Trump is great at playing hardball with small contracting companies, and stiffing mom and pop businesses. He seems to cower in the face of serious competition though.

I’m already getting nostalgic about Joe Biden ending our involvement in the war in Afghanistan, and Obama getting us out of Iraq.

Trump ended the Afghanistan boondoggle. Biden’s team simply abided (although delayed) the implementation.
Obama didn’t get us out of Iraq, his CIA fomented ISIS to overthrow Assad and thus we still have combat troops Iraq, with Syria now added to the list. Care to credit Obama’s foreign policy team for the civilians raped and slaughtered as consequence?

Two Presidents who ended Republican mistakes. Sadly, too many American got duped into the rhetoric about Trump being anti-war, when he dropped record numbers of bombs

We went over this specific disinformation before. Both Bush and Obama dropped more bombs than Trump, according to the Biden DoD.

I offered you a bet in this thread on the very same disinformation spread by you, but you knew you were lying, so you didn’t accept:

https://iowa.forums.rivals.com/threads/sorry-magas-cheeto-was-a-pro-war-president.456541/

and killed more civilians than any President this century. Trump will do what he did last time, and increase American deaths overseas. Great job, American voters!

Have any proof more civilians died during Trump’s tenure than during Bush’s Iraq invasion, or is this just more lies from you?

Remember when Clinton’s Secretary of State told the world it was ‘worth it’ that 500k kids died in Iraq under his administration to thwart a (non-existent) WMD program?

There’s a reason the neocons flocked to the Democratic Party, but I don’t think you’ll ever figure it out.

You are a warmongering cuck for Trump, and an easy mark for propaganda when he hides his numbers…

Trump has shrouded his war-making in even greater secrecy than Obama. The US military has not published a monthly Airpower Summary since February 2020, nor official troop deployment numbers for Afghanistan, Iraq, or Syria for nearly three years. But the United States has dropped at least twenty thousand bombs on Afghanistan since Trump came to power, and there is no evidence of a reduction in bombing under the peace agreement the administration signed with the Taliban in February. Some US troops have been withdrawn under that agreement, but the remaining 8,600 are still being replaced as their tours end, keeping US troop strength at about the same level as when Obama left office.

[…]

Trump has vetoed every bill passed by Congress to disengage US forces from the Saudi war in Yemen and to halt the sales of US-made warplanes and bombs, which the Saudis use to systematically kill Yemeni civilians. He created a new conflict with Iran by pulling out of the nuclear deal, and in January 2020, he capriciously flirted with a full-scale war on Iran by ordering the assassination of Iran’s General Qasem Soleimani and Iraqi military commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis in Iraq.

Trump’s bizarre decision to move the US Embassy in Israel to a plot of land that is only partly within Israel’s internationally recognized borders – and partly on Palestinian territory that Israel is illegally occupying – quite literally took US international relations into uncharted territory. Then Trump unveiled a so-called peace plan based on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ambition to annex the rest of Palestine into a “Greater Israel” with vastly expanded – but still unrecognized and illegal – international borders.

Trump has also backed a coup in Bolivia, staged several failed ones in Venezuela, and targeted even the United States’ closest allies with sanctions to try to prevent them from trading with US enemies. Trump’s brutal sanctions on Venezuela, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and Cuba are not a peaceful alternative to war, but a form of economic warfare just as deadly as bombs, especially during a pandemic and its accompanying economic meltdown.

A Boon to the Merchants of Death

Once the large-scale US military occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan ended under Obama, the US military budget fell to $621 billion by 2015. But since then, military spending for procurement, research and development (R&D), and base construction has risen by 39 percent. This has been a huge windfall for the Big Five US weapons makers – Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, and General Dynamics – whose arms sales revenues rose 30 percent between 2015 and 2019.

The 49 percent increase to more than $100 billion for R&D on new weapons systems in 2020, part of the enormous $718 billion Pentagon budget, is a down payment on trillions of dollars in future revenue for the merchants of death unless these programs are stopped.[/]
