Tariffs.
Trump's answer to everything is tariffs - i.e. punishing Americans for buying products from countries he doesn't like.
Trump is destroying the US's ability to use soft power when the world needs it the most to stop imperialism from the likes of Russia and China.
He will be using the US to empower imperialism all around. The CP* videos they took of him in Mozcow keep him on a tight leash from his soviet overlord.
*That's my take about them: The pissing as a kink is totally neglectable - the age of the pissers is his real problem, see also his daughter and Epstein and all that.
lol the world views the US as just as imperialist and fuck your "soft power." You're in for a surprise if you think the US is a force against imperialism, especially under Trump.
What new regions will be lay claim to tomorrow? How much of Syria are you going to pay for Israel to occupy? Democrats did that one...
Where did they say they thought Trump would be a force against imperialism?
My broader point is that the US has always been imperialist.
okay? who denied that?
"destroying the US ability to fight imperialism"
I guess we can consider that "of other nations," sure. Very noble
nobody talked about nobility
"the world needs American imperialism most right now" isn't the righteous comment you think it is
You don't speak for us in "the world"
