Maybe he should take over the NATO countries while he's at it.

The fascists have already divided up the planet for themselves.

The allied powers saved the world during WW2, who will save us now?

(59,741 posts)He has had military troops there for a long time.
And has forced debt trap loans for African nations.
Loans them huge amounts of money they cannot pay back for infrastructure projects.
Which must be built with Chinese goods and by Chinese companies.
So the countries are on the hook to China politically and economically.
And China benefits economically.

Russia needed American technology to get the oil in the Artic so they needed Rex Tillerson of Exxon to be a partner. If the Artic melts, Greenland will be strategically important for the exploitation of the oil.

(2,006 posts)Because, while cunning, he's dumb as a doornail and can't even point out these countries on a map, let alone knows any history. His professor called him the dumbest student.
He better stop before he gets our country into a war we can't win, putting us in harm's way.
Why hasn't his diet taken over, he's almost 80 years old?
Idiots who voted for this snake oil salesman should be shunned.

(11,520 posts)He promised reduced grocery prices, until he didn't. He promised loads of stuff while lying his ass off. He's offered up unqualified and incompetent Cabinet choices, is reportedly talking seriously about invading Mexico with Special Forces. Wants to convert the country's monetary system to BitCoin, pull out of World Health Organization (NATO is clearly next), deport millions of immigrants and put them in camps and on and on and on.
Yet the 'free" press is trying to normalize the utterances of a madman.
What could go wrong?????
