> Supported by former Democratic intellectuals like Glenn Greenwald.
What? Greenwald was never a Democrat. Anti-Bush isn't the same thing as Democrat.

#5This was clearly the plan all along. The farce at the White House was just the pretense.

#6Thus two messages for every other country:
1. Make nukes, never give up on those regardless of what assurances of safety you get
2. If you are bigger and stronger - you are right, do whatever you want, international laws and rules do not matter any more
Lets see where all this will bring the world to in the next 10 years or a generation.

Maybe that's the case. But how can one lecture Europe about free speech and turn a blind eye when Putin kills Navalny?

It's really tiring seeing the HN enlightened conservatives talking as if there is a coherent policy here. Withdrawing military support for Ukraine alone might be reasonable, I disagree with it but I can see the sense in it.
But Trump is absolutely wrecking every relationship we have in the world, trading or otherwise, except with Russia, where he wants to remove sanctions and increase trade.
Even if you disregard all "moral" foreign policy objectives, like deterring wars of territorial expansion, it makes zero sense in economic terms. We're abandoning >>50% of world markets in exchange for access to... Russia's market? What do they even have to offer that we want? Oil or gas? We already produce more than we consume! Trading more with Russia will only kill domestic oil and gas producers and accomplish almost nothing else.
It makes zero sense, it will never make sense, stop trying to make it make sense.

They don’t mean “Democracy” when they say “Democracy”.
