reaks with weakness even in America he looks spooked by just questions

[kathleenlouie]

Looks weak when answering the questions

[silenceseeker]

WHY does the USA have to dabble in other countries affairs. America does not rule the world, although that appears to be the effort.

[exposure-qqop]

As the American demoralization continues to worsen, all the other Countries are watching for the fall of a once strong and moral Country. We, as a whole, have lost our way. GOD, HELP US !

[roamfun]

My question is…., do you get paid for talking or doing something?

[martinlutherking]

CCP Taliobiden has always been silently loving authoritarian developing countries, so that they can always maintain their great political interests and wealth in these countries. This allows the average American to enjoy an inflationary life.

Same story of a politician trying to portray himself as a strong leader by asking someone else to do things but giving no sound plan on how to do it and of course taking no responsibility, so if the other person happens to be so dumb to put a plan together and that plan doesn't work well, then the politician will proclaim to the 4 winds how inept that person is.

Blinken is begging the Viet Cong(4/16/23) in Hanoi !
Does he knows what is shame?

[Stilosam]

Plantea posibilidad de guerra disuasoria... Otra vez.
EU no oirá el silbato de perro
Supervisen Indonesia, haití Morarquias Absolutas de Oriente... Pero recomiendo que suban su nivel moral por encima de nivel de su entendimiento de la justicia. Cambien la vieja guardia. Y practiquen la política exterior con celo extremo moral-
Serán mas felices

US allow to supply weapons to Taiwan. Part of China as US admit one China Policy.
Why China not allow to supply Russia ?
Hypocrite

[yepyep]

All warfare is based on deception. Duh!
Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak
Oorah!

[Dan-scus]

Sick of this "American Empire" mentality!!
