Russia? Hmmm
Trump's foreign policy has had me rethinking things. I've kind of stated this before, but most people have no idea what Trump is doing. The Democrats, for one, don't get it. Europe didn't either, but they do now. One nation that recognized it early on was Britain. Britain really hasn't been a friend to America. Even when we saved their asses in WWI and WWII, they still were doing things against our interests and behind our backs. The discovery of the Ultra program, to be able to read German encrypted messages, was kept as the deepest secret of the war. Many lives were lost because they didn't share what they knew. They even had prior knowledge of the attack on Pearl Harbor and said nothing. You can argue that the intelligence they gathered was too valuable to act on all of it because that would let the Germans know their code had been cracked. They let German operations happen that they knew in advance. This is common knowledge now. At a meeting in Casablanca in 1945, FDR told Churchill to his face that the war wasn't fought so we could go back to 18th century British rules. Unfortunately, he died and the British continued their world order. Trump has upended the global order in his second term and he does something nearly every week that scares Europe. From trade wars, to bringing manufacturing home, to taking over the world's oil supply, to bombing Iran. Not following the usual playbook with the Palestinians, deeper relations with Asia and the Middle East, threatening NATO and taking Greenland, the global elitists are spinning. They have no idea how to counter him and everything he does is utterly pro-American. The Brits, by far, are more concerned that anyone and sent King Charles over here to reassure themselves of our special relationship.
