International What is the truth behind Donald Trump?

[terrapin]

He's claiming he was the savior of NATO.

And that if he was in power now the Ukraine invasion would have never happened.

I'm not informed on the particulars of these claims but there is contention that the Israeli/Palestinian conflict did in fact (or was allowed to) escalate when Biden replaced him.

Is Trump just blowing hot air with these claims?

i did not get in a wreck when i had a blue car but i did when i had a red car. so its obvious that blue cars are better and i never would have gotten in a wreck if i had one.

Trump was a fair, honest man. He strived to be humble yet stern, and lead by action over words. He never wanted his stifle the voices of his opposition, as he knew the value in critical thinking. It was truly shocking when, although he clearly won the second election, Trump decided to step down peacefully in attempt to unite America, instead of dividing us by refusing to leave office.

The only thing I truly disliked about Trump was his fans. They were too intelligent, and sometimes made the rest of us feel bad in comparison to their own knowledge of the world. Luckily his fans really seemed to mimic Trumps humble approach, and instead of being loud and obnoxious on political agendas, they liked to sit down and have thoughtful conversation. A truly unique group in this world of echo chambers.

only the best!

If Trump was such a Putin ally, why didn't Putin invade Ukraine while Trump was in office?

100% agree. Sherdog to me has always been about finding a middle ground, and now it’s more liberal then a 2023 Disney film. I haven’t seen a right wing poster in what feels like forever in here

You're praising Putin and calling him a good leader?!?!

Obvious answer is obvious.

Trump was a mouse fart away from pulling the US out of NATO. Putin didn't have to do anything if our support for NATO was weak.

The world is lucky this happened under Biden and not the guy who would have sat back and cheered Putin on.

My personal guess is he's just a wrinkled sack of ballsack-skin filled with peach jelly.

The same guy who said Putin got a great deal by buying an entire country for two dollars and fifty cents worth of sanctions.

The same man who went in a secret meeting with him without cameras or aids (but allowed Putin's interpreter to be present) and then came out of the meeting telling us he stared deep into his eyes and concluded Putin was telling him the truth.

 

[ineverpost]

invading Ukraine was a bad decision by Russia. But let's be honest, this is about one man wanting to reestablish what he believes is the true Russia. None of these corrupt leaders actually cares about the country they are heading.

Trump was demanding the other nations pay more to NATO.

 

[genecop]

He’s just another crooked business guy consumed with self interest, but he was better than any lifelong crooked politician…

 

[The Diplomat]

Greatest president all time. He tried to save us and we rejected him.

@Papi Chulo unironically agrees.

The thing about Trump, a New York businessman, is that he was a registered Democrat up until 2009. Registered republican up until 1999. What does that mean? Other than him not caring about political beliefs, it means him and his handlers were accurate in figuring out that after Obama, the "anti-establishment" would be thirsting for a far right tough guy that sounded like Alabama personified.

The fact that he did everything within his legal power to undermine US standing with its allies across the globe, is a much darker path than just trolling the libs for votes, though.

 

[PainIsLIfe]

Trump becoming president is the biggest meme that happened in my life. For the whole four years I was in utter disbelief that it had come to that

I fell asleep on election night with the TV on and woke up seeing Trump won and thought it was on Comedy Central.

All things considered Trump wasn't that bad - inconsistent in policy and easy to make fun of for tweets/gaffes.

Trump was going to pull the US out of NATO after he won the election. Which he thought was going to happen 100% because of the amount of cheating the republicans were engaged in. Even with all their cheating Trump still got trounced. But many former Trump aides said he wanted to wait until the election was over before he left NATO.

His counterpart Marie Le Pen who is funded by russian money (much like Trump) said if she wins she’ll withdraw France from NATO as well.

 

[PainIsLIfe]

Trump spoke out about a lot of legit issues with NATO as well as Ukraine, but ultimately he still bowed down to the security state and flooded Ukraine with weaponry which is part of the reason why Putin invaded.

Contrary to the narratives of the left he was pretty hawkish towards Russia.

Russia invaded because Biden started talking about Ukraine joining in NATO again.

yeah... that unproven factor must be the ONLY factor Putin was/is considering when he did or did not invade..... lucky obama was president or he would have done it then right?

fucking lol dude.......

 

[Snubnoze707]

Russia invaded because Biden started talking about Ukraine joining in NATO again.

This was an 8 year long build up with many factors leading to the invasion. While I certainly put blame on Biden's handling of this conflict, including his families dealings in the region, you can't boil it down to just that 1 point. Putin's terms for invasion are pretty clear, and he gave multiple reasons. NATO expansion was one of the reasons, as was the influx of foreign weaponry into the country, of which Trump participated in (and Biden continued), so Trump's hands aren't completely clean in this provocation. Ironically, Obama halted the transfer of weapons into UKR due to corruption and the fact that they were falling into the hands of Nazis.
