    Really wed be at war with iran? Wed be blowing up random boats and killing people in the caribean? We would have snatched up other country leaders? We would have completely destroyed world trade by tarrifing every other country on the planet? We would have all but destroyed the NATO aliance by starting said iran war and also threatening to violently invade greenland and canada? Do you need a prescription for this severity of blindness

      Israel would be, and therefore, we would be too. Yes.

      We would have completely desgrpyed world trade by tarrifing every other country on the planet?

      You’ll recall that Biden actually kept many of the Donald tariffs, so yes, it’s likely we’d be okay with disrupting trade to some extent.

      Not Canada or Greenland specifically, but considering Obama was at war in 7 countries when he left office (that we’re able to confirm, at least. Could be many more.), and Biden was bombing several countries as well as aiding and abetting genocide and a manufactured famine in Palestine, it’s hard to argue that we wouldn’t be doing stupid shit militarily regardless. That’s especially true given the bloodlust of Israel and the Democrats’ insistence that we continue to hand them WMD’s on demand.

      Do you need a prescription for this severoty of blindness

      Thank you for the suggestion. You need to stop pretending that the Democrats are meaningfully different from Republicans, especially considering the Democrats also ran a candidate with publicly-evident brain damage.

        And introduced his own tariffs on Chinese EVs.
