It is shocking to me that the Baby Boom Generation protested the Vietnam War to get out of a military conflict. When they gained political power, they turned around and gave us two wars were we really lost both wars. We have protected both governments that are weak and unstable, does not really have the support of their citizens.
The citizens of America are lazy, and uninterested in foreign policy. The Republicans are going to run on the Wall and abortion -- and a vast amount of Americans are going to vote that way.
If I was a political leader in Germany, the 2020's and 2030's will be the new era of German economic power in Central Europe and the whole of Europe. America wants to build a wall, and withdraw from North America countries and willing to withdraw from understanding Mexico and Canada. The United Kingdom is in a mess with breaking away from the European Union. Even after Trump leaves the White House, the American conservative movement will mirror France during the 1950's and 1960's.
If I was from Europe, or Asia. I see the American military, spending billions of dollars with a Navy, with a Navy carrier costing billions of dollars. And a military plane that cost millions of dollars to be built. Sending a carrier with its planes to a war zone, and the plane has thousands of dollars of weapons. And the Americans cheer when a plane use a bomb costing thousands of dollars to blow up a pick-up truck. But, it turns into a entertainment show for the Americans. Japan had carriers too, and on December 7, 1941 -- they were not going after pick-up trucks. I see America want to build a wall, and withdraw from North America. And supports spending billions of dollars to kill someone in a pick-up truck.
America is no longer the rational political power of the world.

Simple fact, as long as the US controls the strongest military in the world, they will continue to be the political power. The only question is when China will surpass the US.
LMAO! Name a single world leader who commands more than 100,000 active military personnel that is popular right now?
The Tories and the Liberal Democrats are both unified in their hatred of Theresa May; Merkel's approval rating is in the toilet and isn't seeking re-election; Macron's own country is revolting against him.
The technocracy is a complete failure. The only one left is Trump, LMAO!

Is America Important?
More and more it is becoming important as a carcass to be picked over. The huge chasm between America and the rest of the world was bound to contract some as a consequence of globalization. It was contracting at a faster rate than than it should have because our leaders did not hold up their end of the globalization bargain they made with their own people.
The truth of it is that there is one facet of the globalism effort that is nothing more than vultures lining up to pick us over. Trump is just another globalist looking to pick over the carcass of US financial might and geopolitical power. Trump has exponentially accelerated the pace the vultures are picking us over. In fact, he is Vulture in Chief. In that sense, you folks Trump has convinced he is not a globalist got had AGAIN.
Dude, you are over the top.
No I'm not. The defining moment of the 20th Century was WW2. The entire world including the US has simply been readjusting and reordering itself from then till now. WW2 made America what it was geopolitically from 1945 to the end of the century. Once the rest of the world picked through its rubble as a part of that process, this was bound to happen. Simply a matter of how fast and how well we adapted ourselves to that reality. Frankly, we have done a lousy job of it so far and it shows.
Unless we were willing to recreate WW2 and its consequences all over again, we were NEVER going to be as well off geopolitically as we were from about 1945 to the beginning of the 1990's. We simply did not handle a once in ten generations opportunity as well as we could have.
Simple fact, as long as the US controls the strongest military in the world, they will continue to be the political power. The only question is when China will surpass the US.
I don't even know what the **** you are talking about.
We emerged from WW2 as the sole economic power and we built the free world to be dependent on us. We did a masterful job and still enjoy the fruits of the advantages we set for our self post WW2.
WTF is it you are complaining about?
Good grief.
Do you really think we are where we should be or could have been 70 odd years after the end of WW2?
Are you trying to make the case that globalism is a good thing or a bad thing?
Who really fears the United States?
Right now , our allies.
During the 1960's and before: America had the strongest military in the would. It still lost in Vietnam. We are losing the two wars we are into right now. Who really fears the United States?
That ultimately is how you define lose. We are in more than 2 wars, but we aren't losing any of them. The problem is we go into these countries with no real objective and just stay for a prolonged period bombing people for little or no reason.
As far as who fears the US, everyone.
