National Anthem Booed (Again) At Hockey Event

Simple solution, don't have the White American Slave Owner's Poem Sung at sporting events where American Sports Teams are playing outside the country.

Or, better yet, just don't have the White American Slave Owner's Poem Sung at sporting events, period, not like the game depends on it being played.
 
It makes me happy to know even some of his sheep don't like him, they just like how he operates as the asshole that he is.

If the US, as the world’s largest economy, does not provide a source of peace, justice, and stability in the world, China is happy to step in and do it.

Power vacuums must always be filled.

Peace, justice, and stability? Like where? Ukraine? Gaza? Syria? Myanmar? The Congo? Nigeria? The Sudan? Venezuela? Nicaragua? Three-quarters of the world’s population lives under some form of autocracy. So let’s face facts: what we’ve been doing for the past eighty years in an effort to promote democracy—supporting the U.N. and it’s sister organizations such as the IMF and the World Bank, has not worked. We need a new plan.

That was before the days where we put America first by betraying close and longstanding allies. Now Canada will have to look out for themselves, and the US will have to do the same.

Or I suppose Canada could still rely on other allies in times of need. I don't know that they really have any enemies other than the US.

The US is definitely going to be a self-sufficient island though. We won't ever need to be on good terms with anyone ever again.

America shares 5250 miles of northern border with Canada and another 1954 miles of southern border with Mexico - President Trump, in his infinite wisdom, has decided to pick a fight with the 2 countries with which he shares a combined total of 7204 miles of international border!

Given that President Trump has already reneged on the United States-Mexico-Canada Treaty, a trade pact that was negotiated and signed on July 1st 2020 and scheduled to be revisited in 2026, the reality is that further negotiations are a waste because any treaty or agreement currently signed with the US isn't worth the paper its written on!

Acknowledge that the U.N. and affiliated organizations needs to either be radically reformed or scrapped. I mean, why does the IMF keep restructuring loans to perennial deadbeats like Pakistan? **** Pakistan. They’re in bed with China. Let China fund it. Stop aiding these corrupt dictatorial regimes! Reward countries that can be relied upon to uphold our values: the rule of law, democracy, human rights. Invest in and trade with them.

I have a feeling even if Trump completely destroys the relationship with the rest of the world people in the UK and everywhere else will still send help in times of natural disasters or other hardships.
The UK didn't have to help after 9/11 but we did because it was the right thing to do and that will always be the case in the future.

There are so many historic ties between the UK and US it would be insane to not help if needed.

Heck even WE don’t believe in that nonsense, even for our own citizens, anymore. America has become a plutocracy where only the wealthy have the power, and the weak get eaten for lunch with no protections because ut infringes on the freedoms of the wealthy to eat them for lunch- IOW, the freedom of the jungle.

You think these other countries won’t laugh in our face if we try to talk to THEM about human rights?

If I was the head of another nation and Trump tried I'd just say "Guantanimo Bay!" and walk away.

Those countries can laugh if they want, but even before Trump took the oath of office their leaders were beating a path to Mar-a-Lago. 😆 I’m fine with the laughers selling their crap to China, and China investing there in exchange for debt that probably won’t be repaid. 👍
