Threatening allies with territorial annexations and extorting partners while caving to Russia's demands isn't a display of toughness or masterful leadership. Waiting for a so-called tough leader to speak and act as strongly against Putin and Xi as he does against partners and allies - ThreadSky

US is no longer an allied. Hard truth and very sad to witness.

A position as weak as Biden's but more inept in terms of leverage.

Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but one gets the sense that there is an implicit agreement amongst Trump, Putin, and Xi to each have their own "Great Power" sphere of influence. I fear for Taiwan.

tatarigami.bsky.social•77 days ago

I don't subscribe to conspiracy theories, but I’m concerned, that we could see a new “Molotov-Ribbentrop” deal, where Trump, Putin, Xi, and other regional leaders divide the world into spheres of influence with a pledge of non-intervention. A prime example could be Taiwain going back to CCP

Secret deals are being made (if had not been done already) for sure. Time to go into full mode of Parabellum.

leaninglean.bsky.social•77 days ago

Except we already have a war, but too many are still turning a blind eye to it...

kuozstal.bsky.social•77 days ago

well musk is the president and he's best pals with Xi

Not having nukes now is extreme disadvantage.

Tweetolini does NOT know how to negotiate. When he can't get his way he just gives in to finish the negotiation asap. Ukraine & Europe won't accept these terms so the war will continue. Tweetolini will give up & just blame it on Biden.

Yup seems like a lack of confidence a America had with itself lately, electric cars not working out, AI lead going and now this.. seems like the 21st century is wide open now

davebo8.bsky.social•77 days ago

Seems like Trump is content with being a regional hegemon rather than a global political power

It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal.

The people who will suffer most from the antics of this populist ignoramus are those who had no say in his election.

freedomfollower.bsky.social•77 days ago

I'll leave it here.

Yeah, trading a Russian crime lord for an American teacher who was carrying drugs isn't exactly a show of strength. In fact it's pathetic.

sleepqt.bsky.social•77 days ago

I don't even understand what the point is. They made their choice to be an authoritarian state while people who voted chose to be cucks. It is a lost cause to try to find any reason with people who just appointed tulsi fuckbard as their intel director

karmasdad.bsky.social•76 days ago

Republicans are bullies and cowards in the same body.

leighton-evans.bsky.social•77 days ago

Time to tell Trump and the US to fuck off and keep their nose out of European business. Let Europe dictate how to push Russia out without the US. Also, US policy and sanctions against China should not be supported by Europe. The US has never been capable of doing anything alone. FAFO time

robertoartellini.bsky.social•77 days ago

I think it's time to bring back "Russoamerican Imperialism" as a concept.

truegradient.bsky.social•77 days ago

Ukraine is not capitulating to Russia.

America is capitulating to Russia and China.

dutchgrit.bsky.social•77 days ago

Trump is nothing more then a useless idiot driven by money, power, and a lot more bullshit that occupies his head instead of actual brains

ducebohenski.bsky.social•77 days ago

That's not gonna happen.
Trump is a typical bully, a fokin coward who'll pose as a tough guy on the cheap, against the weak - or those polite enough to seem weak, until they hopefully wake up and respond in kind. He'll never challenge those who he knows/believes upfront are tough adversaries.

nafoffs.bsky.social•77 days ago

European security is from this day Ukrainian security. Everything has changed. Putin lost his nuclear blackmail. Now he will start to lose everything else. Stupid stupid russia.

The yanks are sucking dictator dicks. Sad but true.

jonjohan.bsky.social•77 days ago

Our obvious "problem" is that we don't have dictators. 😎

leaninglean.bsky.social•77 days ago

trump is just a puppet... and he has more than one master... 🤪

992cup.bsky.social•77 days ago

This US administration is 'allied' to none. An 'allied' or partner doesn't ask to be paid back for his help,at least not this way

asleepinyorkshire.bsky.social•77 days ago

Mist & mirrors. Create chaos, to conceal the main assault which is on the American political system. The ultimate goal, persoanl enrichment, increasing the US debt & enriching a minority who are already wealthy beyond measure.

klaabu.bsky.social•77 days ago

It was expected that Trump will suck up to Putin. There was just lots of wishful thinking that he will be pro-Ukraine after inauguration. I really really hope that this sends clear message across EU. We need to step up our support for Ukraine and be ready for an alliance without US for coming years
