You still haven't even begun to explain how your precious "international law" could do anything about this

You chimping out about a US president not being a complete doormat =/= me losing

Yes, the old regime caused these problems, Trump is reversing course. You're blaming the US then crying they're not doing the same stupid shit over and over again. SpaceX is doing it because NASA can't and won't. If SpaceX (or any other private US space company) didn't exist, NASA wouldn't be...

Trump: "you're gambling with WW3" Zelenskyy in 2022: *Blames Russia for missile that landed in Poland despite coming from Ukraine in hopes of NATO declaring war on Russia* Trump was right, Trump is right, Trump will continue being

America industrialized in the 19th century - that's when it became great. And it took place at a time of free domestic markets but highly restricted trade policy. The US also grew tremendously in the 50s and 60s, but after that it suffered enormously and much of the potential it appeared to...

He's doing a better job than almost anyone else in the US government would do, especially since most government workers don't WANT any kind of serious reform and would put up roadblocks the whole way through. Musk isn't perfect at this, but almost literally nobody would be doing better. And if...

Musk bought into Tesla for US$10 million. If you think you could turn $10 million into even a single billion, you are absolutely, medically delusional. You are dumb lol WTF? Zelenskyy has been yapping non-stop for the past three years. It's time for him to shut up and listen to what his...

European leaders spent the past 8 years publicly insulting Trump and saying he isn't fit to be president. Now you're mad that Trump is doing the same to them? Get bent Ukraine is not an American ally. And he doesn't favor Putin - he just understands that this incessant whining that Russia...

This is complete nonsense Separation of church and state means the church, as in formal religious institutions, don't get to dictate public policy That's not what is happening. In a democracy, people can vote for whoever they want for whatever reason. If a politician says that they will ban...

So you apparently believe that European leaders are morons? Because you're saying that they're going to abandon the US for China because the US is doing things China is doing to an even greater extent? Yeah, it's not happening. China has nothing to offer Europe that it doesn't already offer...

You accuse me of straw-manning and then put trickle down economics in inverted commas as if you're referring to the formal name of an economic policy. But that's simply a fabrication. FWIW though, Australians have a much higher material standard of living on average than most of the rest of...

Trump has secured $1.7 trillion in private sector investment already, more than Biden did in four years And your argument is that if he doesn't kowtow to zelenskyy, nobody will invest in the US? Ridiculous

Again, Ukraine isn't an ally, and as for the rest of Europe, again, they were insultingly and constantly critical of Trump constantly for the best part of the past 8 years. If they can't take it back, then the status quo was too fragile to ever be maintained in the first place. The US is NATO...

it doesn't say anything about an invasion

Firstly, the transactional nature applies to Europe too. They don't follow America due to "shared values" - it's in their interest to do so, so they do. Secondly, people invest in the US due to their economy, not their soft power. None of which has anything to do with endless and...
