You can't have your cake and eat it too. You say Russia is ineffective as a military on one hand, because we gave the Ukrainians every Stinger and Javelin we had.
If we hadn't, the Ukrainian heads of state would now be executed and Russia would be setting sights on the Baltics. So, you can't claim they're not a threat while we've been actively mitigating that threat.
GTFO with that nonsense.

But as long as you are wanting us to be policeman to the world, there were recent military coups in Africa - Since 2021, in Sudan, Mali, Guinea, Burkina Faso, Niger and Gabon.

Oh, and Haiti has again descended into chaos. Do you care equally about their rights and quality of life? No? I didn't think so.

As has already been stated multiple times, this is about national interest.

Gosh Pollyanna, gaslighting is soooo, what’s the right word, obvious. Tell us more about how ashamed you are of this stupid, cowardly republic. Then maybe some lame bs about Tucker puppets. Finish up with a diatribe to pigeon droppings. Can’t wait.

It's a small minority of Russian-compromised cowards that thinks America can't lead anymore.

You are the king of red herrings. Riverdance can't hold a candle to the way you dance around subjects.
Days of showing you how the world is inter-connected, how the European democracies and allies bolster America's influence globally, how Russia has sights on the Baltics and beyond, how NATO kept the Soviets in check during the Cold War.
None of it matters to you. You'll keep posting your propaganda long after I've bored sparring with you. Because despite all your verbosity, you are intellectually brain dead.

And it was not what was going on in Europe that finally got us into WWII, not directly anyway, it was what went on in the US Territory of Hawaii on Dec. 7, 1941 that did that. The US declared war on Japan the next day. Three days later both Germany and Italy declared war on the US and only after that did the US declare war on Germany and Italy.

The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations is in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop. Europe has a set of primary interests which to us have none; or a very remote relation. Hence she must be engaged in frequent controversies, the causes of which are essentially foreign to our concerns. Hence, therefore, it must be unwise in us to implicate ourselves by artificial ties in the ordinary vicissitudes of her politics, or the ordinary combinations and collisions of her friendships or enmities.

Didn’t create heaven & earth. Sorry. Find someone else to blame. Cx the Bill of Rights, doubtful. If someone’s crazy enough to try, it’s going to get pretty loud before anything is settled. Wild is the West. Difficult to tame.
Editing warmer or colder?
