  • Re: US Foreign Policy: The Wogs Begin at Calais

    Assad is a true un-PC hero. I'm sure Trump will get along with him fine.

It keeps everybody at the table and communications channels open, and in a "war of all against all" like geopolitics communications is the only thing standing between us and Very Bad Things.

      This is symptomatic of Trump not having a clue how diplomacy works. That's scary as f-ck, because while phone calls don't cause wars, phone calls cause breakdowns in relations which then create an environment in which escalation becomes a higher risk.
      I think Trump's approach to foreign policy will be like his approach to debates: he is both too arrogant and too lazy to prepare. Add that to his impulsivity, and you have a lighted match walking around stumbling over fuses.

        I'm not sure who this Assad guy is, but man does he *hate* Skittles. Anyway, stability is very good for business.

        Newsweek had an interesting article today on how Erdogan has arrested some partners in Trump's giant towers in Istanbul as leverage to get the US to extradite the cleric from Pennsylvania that they blamed for the whole coup attempt. So that is going well.

          I'd say it's more like smoking in a coal mine.

            What's wrong with that? I guarantee that Trump carried Centralia, PA.

              Why try hard for the debates when Clinton received the questions in advance? And yet he still won...

                  Toilet paper sales have increased dramatically in Brussels and Berlin.

                  Meanwhile, Vlad, taking a page out of Reagan's playbook, will continue to rattle sabres and force the EU to dramatically increase their military spending thereby bankrupting the EU. The Western Alliance collapses and Vlad can rest secure on his Westetn borders.

                              This isn't meant to be snarky, but can you point to a single credible movement within the US or Europe with any serious backing that wanted to push east into Russia? We obviously know Russia wants to reunite the Soviet Union and has taken the first giant steps towards that goal.
