Thread: Trump's (USA's purse strings)

It is becoming a theme: the UN,Pakistan,Palestine.

"We give you money for nothing in return"

Who will fill the void when the USA nakedly shows her attachments are purely mercenary and to be withdrawn at the whim of a disreputable fool?

Will it be business as usual when or if Trump is hoiked out of office one way or another?

No. The voids are already being filled by China all over the world... both in dealing with nations as well as international cooperative agreements such as trade. The US is choosing to surrender one of the primary means to convey our values--one proven over the past 70 years and largely responsible for the most peaceful period in human history. But now we're going to allow China's fantastic view on human rights to replace our...wonderful.

Donal T may be voted out of office, but he will not be hoiked out of office. Why on earth should the US of A give money to organisations and countries that despise the US of A. Here in the UK we are still doing just that, giving money away to organisations and countries that despise us. Lynx_Fox says that China will fill the void, well let them do it, see how that works for them.
