It’s Japan’s turn this time.

It just gets worse every day. To think he’s the most powerful man in the world, is plain scary.

Re: The Donald Trump thread

Donald 'Bone Spur' Trump - who single-handedly won the Second World War, the Vietnam War and the War of Jenkins' Ear - has called out his (one time) allies as 'cowards' for not piling in with him and his mate Ben Netanyahu in an illegal and cocked-up war against Iran!

Trump has criticised Nato members for failing to offer warships to help patrol the strategic waterway. In the social media post, he said:

Without the U.S.A., NATO IS A PAPER TIGER! They didn’t want to join the fight to stop a Nuclear Powered Iran. Now that fight is Militarily WON, with very little danger for them, they complain about the high oil prices they are forced to pay, but don’t want to help open the Strait of Hormuz, a simple military maneuver that is the single reason for the high oil prices. So easy for them to do, with so little risk. COWARDS, and we will REMEMBER!

Just for clarity, NATO is defined as a “collective defence alliance”.

Mad what happens when you spend a year dishing out tariffs, insulting your allies, belittling their contribution to your last war and threatening to invade Greenland isn't it. His threats to remember are meaningless because he'd already destroyed any faith that a Trump led US would help Europe in a conflict anyway

Europe is just counting down until Trump goes

It's not much of a plan though. Could be 6 months, could be 3 years. It is a fingers-in-the-ears type plan!

Yes but in 6 months time we all may get a better idea of the timescale.

So after causing chaos, now he’s walking off saying he might help police the strait is asked nicely? Or that it’s up to other nations to sort it out…..properly mental

A cynic or conspircy looper might suggest he only wanted to damage Iran so they don't have the capability to attack when Israel march on into Lebanon and Trump's kids get their hands on real estate?

As an aside

Totally normal behaviour. Looks like he's on a zimmer frame.

I guess he’s managed to put the price of US oil up making them millions no doubt…..was that his sole aim?

He must have some aims and objectives although military minded experts haven't a fuucking scooby and his initial reasons have been called as absolute bollocks.

He could just be a senile, narcissistic half wit who is being used?

In short, fuuck knows!
