I would say having no allies left is going to be a bigger problem, with India and China both becoming stronger powers.

well, tariffs are a tax on consumption, which is overall better than taxing income, but they can easily be made to tax things poor people buy instead of things rich people buy. GOP sees regressive taxes as better than fair ones.

are we rerunning the war of 1812? because this time the UK is unlikely to take either side.

But when we get to April, and Canada is still independent, he will just not impose the tariffs. Or -- unlikely -- we will be at the point of having Pentagon officers ignore silly orders to seize Toronto.

That number is made up by an organisation with an agenda. The true number cannot be calculated. But yes I place the wellbeing of the millions or Iraqis alive now and alive in future generations higher than that number. It is the DUTY of the west to liberate ALL oppressed peoples.

Yes, but millions believe every word literally. They will take to social media and be parroting these lines for weeks.

Is he blaming Serbia for starting world war 1 and making the US "poor"? Better start bombing Belgrade again, then.

Watch the show or better yet, visit Iraq yourself. Or don't if you just want to maintain your original view and have it confirmed over the decades with biased BBC reporting.

Inflation is not an economic problem. It's a sign of strong healthy demand.

Islam has discredited itself through decades of hard work. You can't really expect people to see it as just another harmless faith any more.

Dems have the same problem that the GOP do, except the GOP don't see it a as problem: The standard bearers of the party are too old. They have no idea how to appeal in the age of social media.

What is it like NOW?
Watch Michael Palin's TV show about Iraq and draw your own conclusions.

Well, you just put up this sign. Now the speed limit is automatically 30 kph and cars no longer have right of way over anything else. (Germany)

Which is all in line with the founders' intent. Not that that matters, but it is.

It turns out that there are lots of voters who do not agree with major elements of the progressive platform.
They care more about cheap energy than about climate change, they have non-cosmopolitan values about immigration, they have traditional views about gender, whatever it is they disagree.

There sure are a lot of people on here who see it as a haven where there will be no conservatives, libertarians, budget-balancers and cynics to contradict them. But it's not like that here.

Might be factually untrue, but feelings trump facts. Most Americans probably CONSIDER themselves white.

I'd be ill with that much responsibility on me. "Old man given nation's worst job" comes to mind.

Women casually deploying the word incel as if it's funny is not a microaggression. It's just "an" aggression.

Thing done with best of intentions completely backfired. Libertarians know that everything like that always does.

Hard disagree. I don't like them or dislike them. But the rules are still in effect. Nobody should be within 2 metres of random strangers unless it's unavoidable before 2020 or even today. We should never have needed signs to tell us this.

Like suppose you could replace four red state senators with Democrats who were to the right of Joe Manchin but a bit to the left of Susan Collins. Wouldn’t that be good? What if you could get Lisa Murkowski to cross the aisle.
Something to consider while others yell at me.

We warbloggers spent 2002 rabidly posting angry things about various peaceniks and the concrete result was that Saddam Hussein was driven from power and hanged. We suceeded.

pretty accurate because Trump is beloved by conservatives, but isn't one.

Even more boys and girls who can stand around doing drills instead of useful stuff like defending Lithuania.

Europe might one day look at a still very Christian and deist USA that has gone bananas, and an atheist China and decide to go with the latter.

It was foolish of China to expect repayment in full anyway

When is China going to wake up and realize the plan is to default?
