Pee-tape does not work anymore? what will be the USA´s next step ? does we have Trump on the board, or he is still granddad Vova´s friend ?


"The US has imposed sanctions on seven Russian oligarchs and 17 senior government officials, accusing them of "malign activity around the globe".

Twelve companies owned by the oligarchs, the state arms exporter and a bank are also sanctioned.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said the penalties targeted those profiting from Russia's "corrupt system"."

China is gloating, they are so pleased with our help in pushing Russia their way.

We are some stupid mother****ers.

I perceive the USA is in a trap of its' own making. A mismanaged economic system has put the USA at a disadvantage in World Trade with cash rich Nations. They don't need to play by our hegemonic game plan and we try to force them. It's not going to work. Our gov't will feel it is necessary to enforce our system militarily. That is because we go bankrupt if the competing World powers don't acquiesce. Piss poor economic management and they keep doubling down.

Greetings, Hawkeye10. :2wave:

From reading earlier various news reports, it appears that China and Russia have been dancing with each other for quite some time, and while it's not that they trust each other, they do understand each other, since both of them would enjoy seeing us in a much lesser roll on the world stage, where our dollar would no longer reign as "King of the Planet," IMO!

China is spending untold amounts of money building their "Silk Road," plus they appear to be quite militant about the China Sea properties being theirs, so who knows what's next? Our $21 trillion+ debt sure isn't helping us either! :thumbdown

You might as well call it "The programmed $140 Trillion in debt" because so long as we are allowed to borrow that much that is what we intend to do. Also China and Russia have been dancing for most of a decade, but Putin had no choice but to mostly cave in to China's demands, which was humiliating but there was no choice because the West has treated Russia way worse and Putin is not stupid, Russia does not survive if it is both the enemy of the West and also the enemy of China.

As for the dollar I dont see any chance that survives long term as the default global tender, China will not stand for that, and we will rather soon be too weak to defend the dollar.

Most people have no clue what is going on and how bad things will get, you FRIEND seem to be an exception.

Dave, you are a smart guy, I think you know that America is where it is because of corruption, incompetence, lies and treason.

We are very well ****ed, and almost no one understands this yet.

America is a once leader that has lost its followers.

The crash is pretty much here right now.

It is not Trumps fault either.

The "crash" is only going to deeply (and permanently[?]) effect those who do not move with the times (and especially those who refuse to accept that the times have changed).

Are the American people and government prepared to deal with "The fact that a nation is the world's largest MILITARY superpower does not necessarily mean that it is the world's ONLY economic power."?

Considering all the willful ignorance/ Fantasy that I see all through this collective today, no.

Take a look at the stories Hollywood tells now, it is mostly fantasy ( I am including their overt political work, which is almost their major job now according to these assholes) as well the work of the so-called journalists, as well as the majority of posts here....Hell the latest of the newest and biggest cruise Ships just launched is themed Enhanced Fantasy, and those people know what people want now better than almost anyone.

Since you mention it, I'm sure Bush, Obama, and Trump would get prosecution boxes in the Hague before Putin. Just 20 millioon or so deaths. Chaos, mayhem, death, destructions and Big Profits driving the WARS. "War is good business, and business is good" is not a Russian mantra, but the good ol' USA doing the business of America.
