Trump's vision is so myopic that he can't see beyond his own nose. Same for is ability to care. If the US reneges on promises made as detailed in the Budapest Memorandum what chance will they have in other such promises. Countries are watching. This is doubly ironic as Trump keeps talking about nuclear war.

You're right about the US's military, but you know who also had an outstanding military? Almost all (now dead) empires. I think it stretches exceptionalism beyond all credibility to think the US will buck this trend. That the US empire will be thought of in the past tense is pretty much inevitable, I'm most worried about how it goes. Will it be with a bang, or a whimper. I fearful of the former as they can mount a pretty big bang.

Can you deport into a meat grinder?

Trouble is, with the funding gone, the choice they now have is fight and die, or negotiate a settlement and most probably die. But slower. Probably. Ultimately, an independent Ukraine was a wonderful dream. Time to wake up. And with it any faith that the US will have to keep it's promises.

Or, looking at the popular vote figures would the rest of the United States.

What? Both times?

Even if you're right, here. Trump will petition the supreme court to have the count stopped. Memories of Bush v Gore.

While prima facie, that's true, your reply doesn't mention that anything has been uncovered coupled with the fact that Trump has a history with frivolous and vexatious litigation kinda makes me think this is nothing more than pretext. Though the boy that cried wolf is a parable for a reason. So one shouldn't drop their guard. It's just a shame one man can clog up the court to this extent. There are remedies that courts can take against vexatious litigants, though.

"I didn't expect them to eat my face"

"Cash or card".

So, basically if you can establish a spurious link between support for Palestine and support for Hamas then you get to call them terrorist and curtail that person's constitutional rights.

Benjamin Netanyahu must be sweating himself.

Assuming the reports are true and putting both things together, Israel is lead by at the very least a terrorist sympathizer.
