How is it beneficial for the US to have Russia back in the G7? That our NATO allies are called profiteers by the POTUS? That the US uses a national security clause to impose a tariff on Canadian steel and aluminum when domestic industry opposes it? That Trump writes on Twitter that North Korea is no longer a threat to the US when Kim made 27 ballistic missile tests from 2017 to November 2020? That the US tears up the nuclear control agreement with Iran against the advice of all our allies?
It was beneficial that foreign countries knew red lines in the sand were not fake threats, that they would have to pay their share of their defense, that we would be energy independent that we would not support the Iranian nuclear program, that we would stand up to China and yes even try to make inroads in NK against the wishes of China and I count 8 luanchs, https://www.armscontrol.org/factsheets/dprkchron. How is kowtowing to European countries Russia and China beneficial? How is leaving our borders open beneficial? And it was beneficial to my steel mills which one announced an expansion of two lines and the other a new arc furnance and new lines.
That it wasn't an immediate failure compared to all recent summits... It's really not that hard to comprehend...
Because he was too afraid to stand next to him and defend our country and instead cowered while he studied up on the questions his staff cherry picked for him.
Trump has posed as a victim of our allies and has written all sorts of falsehoods on twitter. A totally unpresidential behavior. Among many other things. The enemies of the US are enjoying the fact that they had a President in front of them who shows NATO disunited. Multilateralism, not isolationism, has made the US what it is today. Without multilateralism, the USSR would still exist and we would still be in a cold war with Russia and perhaps China.
I did. You suggested "hypocrisy", and it's still incomprehensible. I don't think you understand analogies. Explain yourself.
He was nothing of the sort he was seen as someone not like Biden who is more concerned with being liked and too scared to defend out country against Putin. Trump did more to strenghten NATO than any recent President.
There is no way you don't see your own hypocrisy, or you're blinded by your extreme partisanship. In either case, it's you that has the issue.
