as you should. Pence is less likely to get everyone killed in a nuclear holocaust, unlike trump, so at least there's that.

That is one scary link Tathra. Its been obvious that the Christian right had infiltrated and largely taken over the republican party. Pence is the outcome. Religious fundamentalists are now pulling the strings.

lol no. I think he sees exactly how cucked America is with its dealings. Giving all this shit to other countries for free.

Lol. America never gives anything for free. They always expect something in return usually with compound interest.

China has stagnated, as expected with a planned economy. If the US fails, they will too. They're so fragile right now that they're trying to claim the south china sea and it's shipping lanes.

Lol. China will continue to grow. Its America that is failing and it will continue to do so. Your time in the sun is coming to an end. China has control of your economy. You dont control China's.

Capitalism, requiring infinite growth to be sustainable, is and always was a dead end.

Claiming the South China Sea is a sign of strength. America cannot stop it. You guys cant do shit to China. You cant even fix your mess in Iraq or get out of Afghanistan. What on earth makes you think you could take on China or that China is scared of you. Maybe 30 years ago but not now. The days of being world sheriff are over. You have failed in every conflict bar the invasion of Panama since WW2.

Yes it certainly is but in the foreseeable future China will grow and the US will wither.

Their navy is way behind ours, that's why they're building artificial islands and moving equipment there. We can and will stop it. They're all bark and no bite.

know you worship communists and would welcome a chinese invasion of australia, but it won't happen. The rest of the world depends on our military might.

I dont worship anyone but sorry your military might has failed in every conflict since ww2.

Nothing to do with our military, we always lose less men than the enemy

Funny how you never seem to win then and only make things way worse than they were.

To be fair, ww2 was the last "traditional" war, everything since has been counterinsurgency, and you don't win those wars with military might but by winning the hearts and minds of the local population.

Very true thats why American sabre rattling is laughable and their interventions always make things worse.
Also Ryan why do you always resort to personal attacks rather than debating the issue?

US still has the military capability of destroying the world as we know it.
It's one hell of a card to play, and one that I hope the US doesn't do, but it's still in the deck.

Destroying the world yes but thats a really dumb thing to do. Win conflicts it gets involved in...no. Americas track record in regards to military interventions is appalling.

Nearer the top of the deck than ever before. I'm not allowed to call it fascism am I. Let's say idiotcracy.
