-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

By voting for him you endorse his actions. If you endorse trump, you're an idiot
Iran has nukes. Trump bonked their guy and the only reason things didn't escalate is because Iran isn't as psychotic.
Before meeting with
and changing his mind (like so many times before) he was discussing nuking the DPRK, not to mention how he escalated tensions.
The trade war with China certainly didn't make things less tense.
He's incompetent and a buffoon and that's a good thing because he's also a wannabe imperialist, he just lacks patience to do anything. He still almost succeeded in installing
as an "interim" puppet in Venezuela.
Is biden just as bad or worse? Yeah I think so, but that doesn't suddenly make trump any less demented.
I don't believe there was a chance at all of Guaido ever becoming official president. All that really happened were a bunch of western countries started saying he was the real president. when that didn't work the US sent mercenaries that promptly fucked up and got caught by Venezuelan fisherman because at this point I think the South America division of American intelligence is high on their own supply. They think the people of South America want imperialist installed dictators and will revolt once prompted. Turns out the Venezuelan people aren't morons
Yeah I agree with your assessment for the most part. Where I disagree is on the mercs. The reason they only made a half-hearted attempt was because Trump had lost interest.
absolute freaks of mercs they were too. Going ahead with the mission without getting paid. Just in it for the love of the game.
Mercs in the middle ages would burn down Rome if they didn't get paid. These guys tried the mission anyway, failed, six of got shot to death, and the rest ended up in Venezuelan jail.
Pissing themselves on the pavement as well lol, the leader holding what was basically an I.O.U from some Trump ghoul. Funniest day in a while
