    The 80 year old US nuclear umbrella is the only reason we do not have dozens of countries with nuclear weapons. Now because of Treason Trump’s New World Disorder, we can expect a mad scramble of dozens of countries getting nukes in next few decades.

    It has already started. Poland says it is going to get its own nukes now. It’s a very wise move for Poland but the beginning a terrible disaster for planet Earth.

    Why is the world structured around our interests so much?

    P.S You know that’s why he went after USAID, or The United States Agency of International Development… Because it was a big part of how the CIA pays for the world order that benefits America, and goes against places like Russia.

    From Wikipedia:

    U.S. national interests

    Congress appropriates exceptional financial assistance to allies to support U.S. geopolitical interests, mainly in the form of “Economic Support Funds” (ESF). USAID is called on to administer the bulk (90%) of ESF[67] and is instructed: “To the maximum extent feasible, [to] provide [ESF] assistance … consistent with the policy directions, purposes, and programs of [development assistance].”[68]

    Going after USAID wasn’t about going stopping US aid to other countries, it was about ending the American world order.

    Here I was thinking that we’d get to the end of the decade before China invades Taiwan, but at the rate Trump is going China will probably be convinced that the US wouldn’t intervene if they acted by next year.

    Did he find out that the envoy from Japan last month was it? had studied Trump beforehand and knew how to flatter him to get a good trade deal?
