Nobody gets to be shocked. Nobody gets to be surprised. This was all literally written down and circulated. I will "go nuclear" on any MF'er who has the gall to say to my face that they didn't expect some bullshit the Trump administration pulls.
But Gaza lol!
The freeze affects military aid to Ukraine, Jordan, and Taiwan, while exempting aid to Egypt and Israel.
I was told the genocide was going to stop.
The Trump plan to end genocide is to hurry up and get it over with.
Yes they are going to end all the wars by killing all Palestinians and Ukrainians. They were very clear on that.
Rubio: I'm not so little anymore, Daddy Trump says so!
Eric: My father never calls me little. In fact he never calls me at all.
We just handed Russia new borders to Ukraine. China can start more saber rattling against Taiwan. Fucking ignorant policy.
I don't think it's ignorant. I think Trump is selling America for personal gain. He's been very blatent about all of this.
This is what happens when a wannabe dictator isn't held accountable for their actions during their previously failed coup.
You mean he just handed China all of Africa, and more. China loves giving aid for influence.
Correct, horse_battery_staple
Just handed over the Pacific Islands to China.
Hard to think of any reason to do this shit beyond outright sabotage.
Fortunately no need to think of other reasons, because that's absolutely the correct one.
An incompetent fuckwit doing such things?
Shocking.
For the record, this is not Rubio's decision. This is Trump's decision. These people are all just blindly following Trump's orders.
No, their eyes are open. They are following his orders, but they know what they're doing.
Let's dispense with the fiction that Marco Rubio doesn't know what he's doing, he knows exactly what he's doing.
(rubio said this about obama in 2016 please don't hurt me)
Oh, I'm not saying they aren't. They absolutely know what they're doing and are gleefully marching in lockstep. I'm just saying that Rubio himself didn't come up with this decision. Trump did.
Then you shouldn't use the term blindly following orders. Willfully following orders is more appropriate.
