    I wish he was less of a, you know, investor capitalist, but his take on international relations is a wonder to behold. This speech basically boiled down to his election speeches, calling out the US, and telling the world that the Big Fish are nobody’s friend, and that the rest of us need to partner up and stop competing with each other to simp for the Americans.

    He basically declared that the American Empire is over, and we’re done acting as a vassal state.

    Fucking wild. I never thought I’d live to see the day.

      Rather poetic less than 24 hours after Trump paraded out a map with American flags over Canada, Greenland, and Venezuela.

          Well, he called Greenland “Iceland” 4 times in a meandering, somewhat incoherent ramble of a speech.

            I was reading The Guardian’s live feed of his speech and it was freaking hilarious.

            Stuff like, “Trump is speaking on how Canada should appreciate him, and now he’s off on another tangent.” Lol.
