How do you not see that you’ve mistyped…?

Beep boop, I am not a bot.
No, I mean, it happens; I do not always take the time to re-read my comments is all. As long as people are able to understand what I say, it’s okay :)

Alienate all your allies speedrun
Jokes aside, why? There literally is no good reason to piss of people that like you and are willing to work with you

Destroy the economy, collapse any remaining faith in democracy, sell the nation to the highest bidder.
It’s going to be the biggest and most destructive form of disaster capitalism we’ve ever seen, mainly because they are the very people who are engineering the disaster in the first place.

Again, that is the thing I don’t understand. They are already filthy rich. Why crash and burn everything? Wouldn’t it be better to just continue making boatloads of money?
RobotZap10000@feddit.nl 5 weeks ago
I see you don’t understand. They always need MORE.
harmsy@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
They have first boatloads of money, yes, but what about second boatloads of money?
SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Because Putin has tapes.
kreskin@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
It furthers Putins goals.

It’s one of two things:
Bully mentality. “Beating people up means I’m strong.”
Kompromat. “Putin said I have to beat people up or he will ruin me, and I know what he has on me.”

What’s in it for me, personally? These countries do not directly benefit Trimp, plus one of the many things he campaigned on was isolationism. Apparentlys people fell for that

I don’t understand your comment.

Trusting your question isn’t rhetorical.
Jokes aside, the Christian Dominionists running the show want the world to burn. It’s their best case scenario, endgame or whatever. But before THAT happens, they’re meant to make God’s laws in heaven Man’s laws down here, carve their faces into a few mountains, take the last grain of profit from the earth. He with the most stuff wins because God thinks like Santa (if you have more stuff, you’re a very good boy). Don’t overthink these Good Folk. Hitler and his nazis were exactly the same flavour of Imperialist Expansionist genocidal nutbars.
They’re evil, is why.
Hence our current speedrun towards armegeddon. It’s why they’re all about endless expansion for the O&G and military industries. It’s why they have such a violent hate-on for that environmentalist kid, Thunberg. Hope and international co-operation for the common good are absolutely their enemy. Their World To Come requires war.
If you think like they do, of course you want to piss off anyone willing to work with their neighbour. People getting along is bad for business.

Destruction. That’s why.

It’s part of reshoring industry to the US. Additionally, China has built factories in Mexico in order to avoid high US tariffs. The US is decoupling its economy from China. That’s a necessary first step for war against China.

That’s what he’s already done.
Snowclone@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
He’s an idiot. He only thinks in terms of strong man projecting. He’s entirely incapable of real thought and reflection. He knows it’s right because the idea is in his head. Thinking was never a part of this.

He’s had this weird thing about tariffs since even before he was in government. I think someone influential to him once said that tariff wars were the way to go. He tried them last term and they went poorly but that hasn’t deterred him what-so-ever.
He’s just parroting someone else’s bad idea, like most of the rest of project 2025
