Donald Trump Suggests He Would Not Defend Taiwan From China
The Republican nominee for the presidential election told Bloomberg that the island "is 9,500 miles away."
You're viewing a single thread.
The United States will lose its super power status with Donald Trump as president
and it will be transferred to China with Russia as their lapdog. A new age of authoritarianism which will be extremely costly and deadly to quell ala wwii
I don't even know who would be able to fight the trio from hell. At that point it's only a matter of time before the whole planet is fascist.
France, UK, Germany, Italy, Poland, Sweden, Finland, and presumably quite a few American mercenaries that don't want to watch the global society fall into corruption.
Yup, the US (and it's military personnel) would be split if it joins the new axis powers in WW3. That split would do significant damage to the readiness and performance of military as a whole.
Not only that, I guarantee they will push us out of being the world's reserve currency.
Once that happens, we no longer can enforce our will around the globe via soft power (threat of tariffs, sanctions, ect.). Goodbye to normal prices of any kind and hello hyperinflation.
That would explain his sudden love for crypto after bashing Bitcoin during his first term.
Goodbye to normal prices of any kind
Toooo late
You think 9% inflation is bad?
My sweet summer child wait until it hits 20, 30, 120%.
If you just read Promise #3 in the Forward of the Project 2025 document, I believe that's the point.
Any time globalization is mentioned, it's in a negative way. They call the global US treaties and economic policy a woke, progressive failure. They blame much of America's problems on our current path of global leadership.
They have to pull it all in and weed out what they dont like before they try to expand in a way that fits their image. (Oil and manufacturing) It's how governments like this function.
Which is hilarious, if the dollar stops being the reserve currency for oil America's massive debt mountain will be called in and the economy will collapse.
Yeah...alot of them don't think it through. What was the Pol Pot guy in Cambodia... He kills everyone that's not a farmer, then he needs someone to fix the broken radio...
it will effectively hand trillions of dollars of business investments directly to china.
Pretty much Brexit on a global scale.
It needs to, the US needs to mind it's own business
The US needs to act like a global citizen, not the global police.
Saying that they have been a significant stabilizing pwer post ww2, and the changing world order would create significant upset.
(Hate the term world order as it makes me sound like a conspiracy theorist - I mean the actual international relations definition)
Well for now the US remains the only global super power.
People say China is a superpower now, and maybe they will be, and perhaps they edge America out in certain, specific economic or military measures, but they don't have the high power, strategic alliances that America has.
NATO, Five Eyes, NORAD, ANZUS, US France, US Japan, South Pacific Treaty, US Canada (most? of the arctic), US Brazil, US Australia. UK. South Korea. Mexico.
Even in Africa, we have a string of alliances right through the middle (the part that isn't just desert), and still lesser, but still significant alliances in south and north Africa. Check the receipts on mutual defense agreements, cooperation agreements, joint military exercises, to say nothing of the many energy, space, and naval alliances, strategic military bases and territory; Alaska and Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Gaum, Samoa.
Wow, China has more people; their GDP should correlate but it doesn't. Also, seems like having more people may be a liability. One thing they definitely have going for them is public infrastructure, still with massive wealth and income inequality.
Show them how, we're waiting.
