As if "threatening to invade one of our allies" isn't the ONLY story here. The sane washing is so far off the charts now we're just absolutely fine with asking if it okay to invade our ALLIES. Not North Korea or Russia or some other country or organization that is actually fucking with us, OUR ALLIES!!!!!!! The only rational response to this is complete CONDEMNATION.............
I just... I cannot even with the media.

(9,560 posts)I mean no offense to the OPs comments which are righteous. The term seems weak but I have no other to offer.
I wish they would have a defense expert or all the retired army types on the medias payrolls actually discuss the military requirements of an invasion. They could also bring in experts to see if Taiwan would fall if the U.S. invaded Greenland or Panama. Also the potential US casualties and the impact on the economy. Treat his comments as having real world consequences and ask GOP Senators if they would support a war with Greenland or Panama and how many troops would be involved.
The media just lets TFG metal k without any questions.
