You forgot to mention him ending world hunger, starting a colony on Mars, scoring a hat trick for Palace in the cup final and buying everyone's round for the past 4 years! Let's be honest on foreign policy Trump has been far better then Bush and Obama. I predict if a biden victory happens we will end up at war with Iran within 4 years especially after Covid Depression war creates a great distraction.

Tell the citizens of Raqqa in Syria, 160,000 dead, a scene worse than Dresden, that Trump has not been at war. 160,000?

And then we will have to put up with all the pricks who cheered Biden on telling us all how opposed to war they are. All virtue signalling addicts. Social Media is driving us all insane. And I include myself in that. Messing with our brains.

I predict if a biden victory happens we will end up at war with Iran within 4 years especially after Covid Depression war creates a great distraction. What Trump has pursued is a policy of crippling economic sanctions on both Iran and Syria, which very possibly have been more unjust and more destructive than any of the wars in recent years. In Syria, humanitarian organisations are genuinely worried about a famine, so limited is access to food. But where war at the very least is an attack on both rich and poor, sanctions are purely an attack on the poor, as the elites monopolise resources or move abroad, while the poor suffer. Medicine shortages during Covid means the hospitals in Syria are now totally out of use. Millions more refugees have been created, which has led to destabilisation in Lebanon and other nations in the region. And what's worse, Assad is now more powerful than ever. Obama defeated IS with the siege on Mosul (bloody, but at least effective). Trump has handed the country back to a tryrant, strengthened Russia and Iran's presence in the region, and caused thousands more to die. The same has happened in Iran, but without the tragic extremes of famine. Killing Soleimani has united Iranians around more hardline politicians, as have the economic sanctions, which the Ayatollah can use to blame all social ills on. And claiming Trump doesn't want war with Iran? Have you ever heard the man talk about Iran? The thing that sickens me is some of you using the people involved in these conflicts as pawns in your political game. You gave no f*ck when our governments were bombing them to bits, you blamed them for seeking asylum elsewhere, and yet now you virtue signal over how important peace in the region is just so you can justify your support for Trump. None of you give a f*ck about Syrian lives. If Trump was carpet bombing their houses you'd be justifying it by saying they are all terrorists.
If punk ever happened I'd be preaching the law, instead of listenin to Lydon lecture BBC4 |

So your against financial sanctions to prevent these nations from waging proxy wars and bring them to the negotiating table however carpet bombing iraq syria Libya afganistan is ok with you. Unless of course Trump did it then its evil turn a blind eye when your guys do it. Edited by Cpfc1861 (03 Nov 2020 10.13pm)

This is so obviously the true picture that even the conspiracy theorists and alternative reality dwellers will find it hard to deny. Not that will stop them trying of course. Reading some of their comments is like listening to many of the Trump supporters in the USA who say things so far removed reality it takes your breath away.
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

Yep
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |
