Too on point not to share. This is great, but too bad the Orange Felon’s enablers won’t let him see it.
This Australian's reply to #Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

@USWPColby The world no longer trusts or respects the 🇺🇸 as your country does not respect trade agreements and treaties negotiated and signed by your and previous governments. The reputational damage will take decades to remediate ( if it can be ) . Stop the manifest destiny creep already
Trump is playing hard ball. The joint board was established in 1940 at a meeting in Ogdensburg, NY, by Mackenzie King and FDR. This has to be seen as an unfriendly move, likely designed to force Canada into painful concessions.
Because it is a defensive alliance not a imperialist offensive alliance. Next time consult before you attack. It is not NATO’s responsibility to clean up ISRAELI /US offensive blunders.
🔥The United States of America will withdraw more than 100,000 American soldiers from Europe and suspend its annual defense spending, which amounts to trillions of dollars.
What's your response to this......??👀
Without monetary return or military allies when needed, do you agree with the US decision?
YES or NO?
@glen_mcgregor@ChantalHbert Because he is not a diplomat but a polarizing MAGA supporter who ignores the facts and lies for the benefit of DJT administration.
@DemorestKe48215 The American Alcohol ban was a direct and correlated response to the illegal 232 tariffs imposed by Trump on Canadian Aluminium, Steel and Lumber. The Trump rational “national security “ BS “ like everything that comes out of the Grifter in Chief’s mouth!
Trump offers immediate tariff relief to aluminum and steel companies that commit to US expansion - offering Can & Mex aluminum and steel companies immediate tariff relief if they commit to moving production to the US in the future, @AshleyBurkeCBC reports https://t.co/GKWBgB0lZq

You have to be completely delusional not to see how much worse the world is right now compared to before Trump.
He has been a total disaster in every single way.
The damage he has done globally is undeniable
The American administration has no moral compass and cannot be trusted by any country to respect any agreement it signs, just as Canada and Mexico. DJT is a grifter !
Yet another proof that the US is completely agreement-incapable.
It's pretty crazy when you think about it: they made the EU sign a deal that was egregiously one-sided in their favor - basically a colonial treaty - which the EU justified signing by saying it prevented higher tariffs on EU cars. And the US just violated the latter 🤦♂️
I'm not holding my breath but hopefully this time - unlike the previous times - Europeans learn this lesson: accommodating the US is literally worse than useless.
@EricLDaugh NATO is a defensive alliance and not an offensive alliance. Perhaps some consultations with NATO instead of only with Israel prior to launching an attack on Iran would been call for. God Bless America!
