Diplomatic Donald
Godfather of international relations

Donald, you're like the Godfather to me.
Though, he said keep your friends close
And your enemies closer,
You seem to take it to mean:
Keep your enemies close,
And really fuck-off your friends
O ~ o ~
Is it me, or has there been a marked change in how the Unites States of America conducts relations with its allies on the international stage?
Just an observation. I don't consider it for me to comment on another nation's elected leader. I have no doubt that the American people are fully behind their President in his dealings with other sovereign states. I can only wish the President's visit to these islands will be a happy one.
Thanks for reading

I just think everybody/nation should expect that he will put America first as he promised. No surprises here.
He's losing his marbles, lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'll never understand Trump and am done trying. I guess some people were meant to cause the upheaval of progress and unity. He just doesn't get it and for certain is headed into dangerous territory with his insane Ideas to fix things that were never broke to begin with. As predicted, there is no shortage of daily news highlighting his faults and failures. Be happy you don't have to deal with him. Directly, that is, lol. His wrath of unpredictable actions is far reaching.
Fully behind him? Most of us can't stand the man (including a whole lot who voted for him). He is a pox upon a once honorable party, dragging them down to the depths of whatever nightmare this is such that it becomes increasingly doubtful it will ever recover. He literally opposes everything the party once stood for except the part about lowering taxes on billionaires & doing everything in their power to persuade those whose taxes either get raised or services reduced (often both) that it'll be good for them, too. Of course since Newt Gingrich declared total war on the Democratic Party, the quest for power as the only thing that matters is right down his alley, as well. He does give people permission to be hateful & blame those who cannot respond for all their problems which a lot of folks seem to like. That & there are many who can't get enough of people blowing things up. The only reason to watch hockey is for the fights that will break out & the only reason to go to the races is to bear witness to the wrecks. He is a cancer which has probably destroyed the GOP, seriously wounded if not crippled the USA, & turned "white evangelicals" (who tend to be anything but evangelical) into a searing indictment of Christianity itself. I mean, who wants to be part of a hate group? (Oh, I guess that would be almost half of the voters in last year's election.) I guess we'll all get some idea as to whether either freedom or the world itself survives these next four years.
The only people 'fully' behind Trump is the Soviets and the Redneck Republicans. One is screwing him and the other is eating all his BS. Sorry to be crude but a giant number of Americans don't even consider him the President. He's a Troll of the worst kind.
We all didn’t drink the kool-aid, Raymond, and many of us here are highly offended by and unsupportive of this man’s actions, especially against our long treasured allies. It is difficult, at best, to daily watch what happens.
Please, please,, please DOUBT! " I have no doubt that the American people are fully behind their President in his dealings with other sovereign states. " There are protests. People losing jobs (9,000 federal employees in my county alone!) Already much needed prescriptions are now unaffordable since he rolled back laws. Our privacy is laid bare due to unelected crazies tearing through data.
Me too. I am not a political person, but I believe that The Lord Jesus is the true leader of all everywhere.
