He’s not even back in office yet and I’m already so. Fucking. Exhausted.
Strap in. This ride down the drain hasn’t even started.
Can someone please set up an AI to track everything he does and says, parse out the important bits, and give us the rundown? Then he can yell into the void all he wants and we can keep our sanity while staying informed.
Interesting how Latin American leaders are pushing back firmly against Trump’s trash talk, whereas Canada and Europe have been almost totally spineless.
The US has fucked up Central America for a century now. They know what it means to let us do what we like to enrich our corporations at their expense.
Canada and Europe are still in denial at just how evil the US can be when we’re led by a corporate stooge and populist “fuck the world” attitudes.
So he has foolish ideas about ending existing wars and plans to start a few new ones.
He really can’t wait to go full Hitler.
Wouldn’t be the first time the U.S. ignored a treaty with a land full of indigenous people…
This is our actual national pastime. Baseball is just a fad
The rules to baseball seem to line up even:
- Someone tosses you a gift (Baseball)
- You smack the shit out of in a way that forces everyone to go looking for/chasing it as a distraction.
- Invade their bases, stealing whatever you can.
- Return home with your stolen bases without the other side being able to touch you in any way.
- Hailed as a hero.
Which part of sportsball am I missing here.
I’m struggling to squeeze the ground rule double into your analogy
Something about a bullshit rule that can be exploited by those in power.
I’m sure the 25th Infantry Division is thrilled to know they’ll be required to fight a jungle insurgency for an obsolete canal.
/s
Honestly, I’d prolly die day 1, but as a Honduran, I’d probably consider volunteering to go to Panama and fight you guys if you do end up sending armed forces to take the Canal. Fuck you guys…I mean, not you specifically, or anyone here for that matter, but… you know what I mean…
Yeah the US rep in South America isn’t great…
Is ‘obsolete’ part of the /s or is it actually not as useful now?
It is actually not as useful. Panamax ships were getting made 1985. But then they figured out they could actually ship more with larger designs even going around the “long way”. So the route is longer but ships are faster and larger enough that the “bandwidth” is higher than going through the canal.
The canal is also running out of water. It’s supplied by a lake at the highest point and every time they run the locks they lose water. They put some pumps in to bring water back up but it’s not enough to offset the loss.
Ignore him. He is only trying to distract from his latest failures. Expect more distractions as the failures mount up.
Didn’t the US take Panama already?
I mean they took Panama, but it’s still Panama, hint, hint nudge nudge.
From Columbia, yes, the United States took the Central American portion of Columbia and made Panama. Then built the Canal and leased it from Panama for 100 years.
Edit: there is a lot more to it but that’s the gist of it.
What?
I mean wft are you talking about ?
Well, yes, there’s definitely a hell of a lot more of a fuck about it.
Good grief. Is this what the US education has become ?
Grand Columbia, the Panama Canal project, a Bull Moose, $40 million, Manuel Amador, The Torrijos Carter Treaties, and a little bit of hyperbole.
Your mom is what US education has come to.
The point is to water down the idea of imperialism, which serves Russia and China.
The same way they tried with impeachment over everything, the same way they’re watering down the concept of the pardon, the same way they watered down the term “coup”.
Not only Panama, the orange shit stain wants Greenland too!
As they should. Chump is fucking insane.
Don’t anyone panic! There are still 3 death row inmates to do something about and a whole constitution to scramble.
