After Venezuela Attack, Trump Says Something Must Be Done About Mexico

The ones that quit were the ones that would.

Remember when the government was shut down and some billionaire friend of Trump stepped in and paid the military? Your generals are not gonna revolt, they're already paid off.

Why do you expect the military leaders of the most utterly reprehensible empire of our times, which has killed millions, displaced tens of millions and condemned hundreds of millions to poverty within living memory, to have a conscience? These people are gangsers for capitalism, and capitalism has spoken; the law is secondary.

They like money and power as much as the next fascist politicians.

Let's not pretend like the US armed forces aren't full of right wing militants just waiting for their moment to kill.

He has also (today) suggested invading Cuba, he's bombing Nigeria and Somalia, and he hasn't stopped talking about annexing Greenland and Canada. So that's at least 7 countries in his sights.

I feel I'm getting repetitive with this, but this has always been the case. This latest escapade is basically Iraq but with a veneer of Libya.

This was the plan. Donald had been weirdly quiet about China in general and Taiwan in particular.

He, Xi, and Putin have carved the world up into spheres.

It's what I say and will always say until the United States fully reform: Trump is merely showing what America truly is which many people pretend not to be.

Nothing was ever stopping this since the US election - they've been pretty open about it happening in the next three years in the appropriate weather season.

Two US carrier groups might have attempted to stop it, but the intellectual honesty and consistency of the US president was never a barrier.

This is the Heritage Foundation. Trump is their puppet.

And there are drug cartels, could reuse the same playbook.

Lithium is the nationalized resource we want from Mexico

At this point I kind of want him to bring up Canada again, just to watch our economy fully decouple from them

He mentioned Cuba on hit wish list

Panama

She’s not running Mexico

This is the stupidest trope being driven by the Right everywhere, including our own opposition. She has been doing wonderful things for the country.

I'm just incredibly sad that the moment we actually get a competent president, one who acts on behalf of the people, one with a relevant college education, and the first woman in history to be our president, we won't get the chance to really savor the moment and see her actions through to some permanent change. Everything was going so well, man. I'm growing very resentful of Trump for this. It feels like we're getting our wings clipped fast.
