China about to initiate space teleportation and invade Ukraine from the other side of the world (btw he has a PhD lol)
View attachment 81720
As a newly minted PhD, let me just say, having a PhD doesn't mean you are smart. Many PhDs are clueless outside of their specialty field. In fact, most people can achieve a PhD given the time, guidance, and resources. This guy is a faux outrage machine, plain and simple.

Wow, they just have no sense of shame do they?
They are inheritors of British civilization, democracy, and high culture. So they inherit the white supremacists mindset as well, both in territorial claims and intellectual advancement that accompanies a superior civilization (even if it was just an ex-colony), they think they are still higher than Chinese dogs.

MAGA was just his sales pitch.

Like any salesman, Trump's actual goals were personal wealth and fame. Fame before wealth even.
One common mistake, perhaps made on purpose, to demonize a rival is to claim that their leaders and their government never cared about the country but only want to enrich themselves and to steel their grip on power at the expense of the people. This is what the US has always said about China. But generally, I don't believe it, especially not as it pertains to highy competitive nations like China, USA, Russia. So I would not make this same claim about Trump; I believe he is a patriotic American who thought that he could strongarm the world and make America so huge and dominant that it wouldn't be any crime at all to take an extra slice for himself. And how he exited was a result of mistakes upon mistakes piling onto each other until it was all a mess and his inner child came out in a disoriented tantrum.

That guy writes for Epoch Time. Enough said. There are no shortage of people in the West that hangs a Dr. in from of their name for vanity. For all I know it could be a gender studies degree from a diploma mill.

You might be correct if it were not for his past history...

Trump University
Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts
Trump Towers
Trump Steaks
Trump The Game (Later repackaged and rereleased as The Apprentice game)
Trump Shuttle
Trump Mattresses

You think a guy who brands all his business with his own name is NOT primarily out to expand his own personal brand and wealth?
How many more did you want? There's A LOT!
Any benefit for America would have just been a pleasant coincidence for him.
