Politicians hide themselves away

They only started the war

Why should they go out to fight?

They leave that role to the poor,

Remember what happened the last time a major terrorist strike happened in USA?

The USA responded by attacking the wrong country under the false premise of "weapons of mass destruction "?

The US has a freebie wildcard

It's called the "who's gonna stop me" card.

Bullies like to play that one as often as possible.

I mean the republican lawmakers, not the citizens.

We just want fucking healthcare and affordable housing.

Trumps response is to offer army barracks and MREs, in exchange for you becoming cannon fodder in his delusional war games.

The silver lining is that this will accelerate the decline of the US Empire

But not without a tremendous loss of life.

Unfortunately the republican run states will bend over whenever Trump tells them to.

The unilateral strikes indicated a collapse of Donald Trump’s efforts to restrain the Israeli prime minister

What sane person ever believed that Trump was willing or able to restrain Israel or its leadership?

Countries outside of the Western world and Asian neighbors have been siding with China over the US for a while now, probably due to all the invasions and coups.

And the targeted application of soft power.

A game which the US also used to play, but has recently decided to rapidly abandon.

Pariah state is the designation I have started to use.

Learn?

The Americans are doing the opposite - they're complaining that AFD has been labeled an extremist organization.

The US is no longer trustworthy.

And it will take a lot of time and effort from the Americans to regain the trust of the international community.

Once again demonstrating how unreliable the American government has become.

It will be a *very* long time before the international community trusts America.

All that said, I hope that Carney instead chooses to build consensus.

As I understand it, that has been how he has operated in his previous roles.

They've also "deported" (exiled is a better word) actual citizens. Someone on a green card has less protection than that.

He sounds like he's ready to spend on capitol projects at the moment.

In his book he calls for government spending on capital projects in order to kick-start private investment in expanding their businesses (and payrolls, ultimately leading to more employees in better paid jobs and therefore at a higher taxable level)
