He briefly halted the supply of some certain weapon over concern US stockpiles were running low

I was gonna say, outside of him bungling Iran, Trump's foreign policy has more or less been business as usual.

What's about Venezuela, NATO, Greenland, tariffs and .. you now all the wacky dumb shit he has done?

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 27 points 16 hours ago

Venezuela was US foreign policy business as usual. All the EU countries are still spending absurd amounts of money on “defense” like good little bootlickers.

He's not actually gonna invade Greenland.

Venezuela was like Iran in he's doing what the US imperialist machine was already doing but faster and dumber.

What about them? Maduro was a socialist, do you think kidnapping him is something Xi and Kim(or most sovereign nations that aren't US vassals) would be in favour of? or that democratic politicians hadn't being calling for his removal for years?

Greenland he said some wacky shit, what did he actually do there? a few vassals may bark, but at the end of the day do you see them removing US bases and nuclear assets from their territory over the threat? Threatening to remove a few thousands troops from Germany you could argue is something(if it actually happens, seems like bluster at this point), but as long as NATO countries remain suzeraintes that allow US bases and any level of their troops to be stationed on their territory, and most importantly still allow the deployment of its nuclear umbrella then NATO maintains is structure with the US on top, and continues its main function: Keep China and Russia out, keep the Europeans in and down

And if you think Xi is for trumps tariffs when they have negatively China's trade and he's explicitly condemned them on the world stage multiple times, or that Putin is happy about the increased tariffs and sanctions trump as imposed on Russia then you need to seriously reorient your geopolitical thinking
