39. Allies cannot trust the US on any level.
Fri May 30, 2025, 06:01 AM
Friday

The US will not have their backs.
Sensitive information cannot be shared, it will be sold to enemies.

The US will threaten to invade or tariff them. Or any number of threats.
Visitors to this country could be jailed.
Leaders who visit the US will be humiliated or threatened in the Oval Office.
Bribes will be demanded.

The American voter, congress, and the judiciary will endorse it all or look the other way.
Or have no power at all.

Let's say one of your best long term friends did this to you.
Would you ever trust that friend again?
