| > Thanks for calling me dumb for thinking the POTUS has influence. Of course the office has influence. But my point is that the person in that office doesn't make important geopolitical decisions. > Anyway, Speak for yourself, I can’t imagine being so far down the deep state rabbit hole to think the president and commander in chief is purely a vapid figurehead. Who is talking about 'deep state'. I'm talking about the state. > Question: did you try to correct people when you saw them criticizing Biden or Trump for the Afghanistan pull out, since according to your comment they had nothing to do with it. Do you really think Biden decided one day to pull out of afghanistan? Are you that naive? How about this. Do you think Trump or Biden are experts on china, russia, north korea, iran, venezuela, etc? Do you really think a senile old man or a celebrity has the knowledge to make decisions about these affairs? All you have to do is sit back and think for a moment and you'll realize how absurd it is that a man, whose only qualification is he won a popularity contest, makes important geopolitical decisions. Do you think america, $23 trillion GDP and thousands of nukes, is a banana republic where one man decides whether to go to war or makes important geopolitical decisions? You think if a pro-china candidate won the election, we'd be all buddies buddies with china when the state has already decided on an anti-china stance? In 20 years, if jake paul becomes president, do you really think he gets to decide important geopolitical issues. Of course not! |
Wooopdeeda a strawman setup leading to yet another insult.
Sure I’ll take naive over brusque and abrasive online know-it-all throwing insults around at anyone with different views - your prior comment was flagged to death by the way.
