This might be naive of me to ask, but do you really care if China and Russia use a different currency? What does it matter to you?


If too many countries stop selling oil in USD then that means that the US loses the only thing propping our currency up.

Correct. So wouldn't it be more prudent to create sound money so that other countries would willfully use it rather than necessitating war, death, and prohibitive debt by using our military to force regime change in those countries that see no benefit in dealing in it?

No matter how any of us may feel about it, we're basically the muscle-bound mafia of the entire world

Solely through the excessive greed of the elite. It is of no benefit to the average American.

quote:

---

We have embedded ourselves on a fundamental level into just about every other person's life across the entire planet and if you think it is "wrong" then you have to ask yourself... would you prefer it be China instead? Or Russia? I don't. SOMEONE ALWAYS rises to the top to fill a power vacuum and I'd damn well prefer it to continue to be the US because I am an American. Anyone else in our place would be doing the same exact thing if they could and anyone saying otherwise is a fool or lying to themselves.

We spent the first 168 years of this country, from independence in 1776 to Bretton Woods in 1944, without being the world's bully and in fact flourished in that time and were not dominated by China or Russia or anyone else for that matter despite the dollar not existing as the world currency.

Bottom line, we bully other countries now because our dollar isn't worth the paper it's printed on. And as long as that is true, we will forever have conflict with countries who realize and refuse to use it.

The Deep State took the dollar off the gold standard to do away with limitations in printing it so they could line their greedy pockets even further.

That's what our best and bravest are fighting and dying for halfway across the globe.

I'd much rather see our government create sound money that has value other than the might of our military.

So basically the terrorism/weapons of mass destruction angle was all bullshite to scare the population into going along with invading the Middle East to save the Petro Dollar and maintain the status of the elite/Deep State.

It's about money. It's ALWAYS about money.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm vehemently against all Deep State puppets, not just Trump.



Doesn’t appear so as you still favor a career politician

---

I don't have a problem with career politicians. I have a problem with Deep State puppet politicians.

It's true that probably 99.9% of them are Deep State puppets. But on very rare occasion... Ron Paul is a prime example.

Iran will need constant surveillance from now on out.....desttoy the evil in Iran and keep a close eye on these people.

---

If Iran agrees to sell oil in dollars, we won't hear another word about them.

quote:

---

The most important part: “The Middle East problems.” Why are we involved again?

---

Because they threaten the Petro Dollar and the elite cannot remain elite without it.

"They want to make a deal.

Who's stopping them?

As a libertarian, I’m getting tired of him and Paul being the outspoken tds mouthpieces. They may as well just come out as democrats because that’s who they are helping.

---

What would concern me as a Trump supporter and a conservative is that Massie has remained unwavering in his politics and yet more and more you folks see that as part of the Democrats' policy.

What's going on here? Am I to assume that everything is pivoting right? :dunno:

The Deep State loves giving power to egomaniacs. They're easy to control.

Voting no and not doing anything is still keeping the status quo.

Voting at all is still keeping the status quo.

If they can work together on an Epstein bill they could work for we the people.

True. But we all know that's not going to happen.

It's all one big happy family.

quote:

---

Any so called president puppet who sits there results in the same thing. A third of the country is furious a third cheers it and a third is like me who wants a divorce

---

Not sure why it hasn't sunk in yet with the general population that regardless of which Deep State puppet is sitting in the White House, we're going to get the same results.

What's that thing about doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results?

Trump and the people who worship him as their lord and savior have all the evil qualities of Clinton bush and Obama rolled into one it's hysterical

I was promised Adolf Hitler and I got a total Jew sycophant. I want a refund

In my wildest dreams, I never believed that Trumpeteers could outcult Obamabots.

You live and you learn.
