Welcome to Stupid America!

RawStory writes, “‘These miserable anti-American leaders of the party of slavery have taken us back 40 or 50 years on race relations with Obama,’ he said. ‘It began with Obama.'” Giuliani is absolutely correct; America has gone backward, not because of Obama, but rather in reaction to Obama. Let’s face it, f***tards, America elected its first Black president — twice — and racist Americans lost their ever-loving shizzle! We are still in this long, long backlash that gave rise to traitor trump and perpetuated his popularity. It’s getting worse. The “Tea Party” (never had anything to do with taxes but became the party of racists), the “Freedom Caucus” which changed its name from the Tea Party (means the freedom of white cis Christian nationalists to discriminate against everyone else), and MAGA (means making America great only for said white cis Christian nationalists) are all the same; only the names have changed. There is absolutely no daylight among the groups, except to say now the entirety of the RepubliKKKlan has been subsumed by MAGA and the Freedom Caucus. The Freedom Caucus is the political wing, whereas MAGA is the grassroots portion of the larger racist movement. So, the racists and the haters in America are winning, in part, because the counterweight to these malevolent forces is M.I.A. Indeed, some of this counterweight has joined the side of the MAGA moron movement. Former members of the Obama coalition (or generation) have become traitor trump supporters; they are helping to drag America backward to the pre-civil rights movement, which I assume is a point in time that Giuliani craves. Not sure why he is “complaining” about it, or perhaps he’s not. Un-f***ing-belieavable. Welcome to stupid America!

According to CNN, “The Texas Supreme Court has temporarily blocked a pregnant woman from obtaining an emergency abortion in a ruling issued late Friday. The court froze a lower court’s ruling that would have allowed Kate Cox, who sued the state seeking a court-ordered abortion, to obtain the procedure. ‘Without regard to the merits, the Court administratively stays the district court’s December 7, 2023 order,’ the order states. … Following the ruling, Cox’s attorney said they remain hopeful the state’s request is quickly rejected. ‘We are talking about urgent medical care. Kate is already 20 weeks pregnant,’ said Molly Duane, an attorney at the Center for Reproductive Rights. ‘This is why people should not need to beg for healthcare in a court of law.’… In a letter [from the Texas A.G. Paxton] to three hospitals in Houston where, according to the Texas Medical Board, Cox’s physician has privileges, Paxton wrote Cox has failed to demonstrate she has a ‘life-threatening’ medical condition related to her pregnancy or that her symptoms place her ’at risk of death’ or major bodily harm. The state attorney general also warned the hospitals Thursday’s ruling ‘will not insulate you, or anyone else, from civil and criminal liability,’ including first-degree felony prosecutions and civil penalties of at least $100,000 for each violation.” I have no doubt that the Texas high court will uphold the Texas abortion ban! Because, of course, they will.

I am just going to say it upfront: I hope Kate Cox dies! Full stop! Sadly, this sh*t-for-brains country and, in particular, sh*t-for-brains Texans are getting exactly what they wanted when they elected traitor trump as president, who promised that he would end Roe. So he did! Moreover, f***tard Texans elected the corrupt state Attorney General Paxton not once, not twice, but three times! Each time, he ran on a platform to end abortions. So he did! This case manifests what people voted for, and guess what? It is long past time that people should start living the consequences of their votes. I’m f***ing sick and tired of people having it both ways all the time, especially in red states! Red-state voters elect RepubliKKKlans who don’t hide their disdain for women and minorities, but when they need something, they run to a blue state to get healthcare or use the courts to restore their human rights. (Or, worse still, people don’t vote at all.) But these same women probably voted for RepubliKKKlan politicians who are suppressing their rights, and they’ll vote for him or her again because that’s what people do; they vote against their own self-interests out of habit. Nothing ever changes because people don’t want change.

Moreover, no one f***ing cares. I promise you no one cares! Oh, sure, this story makes for great news headlines nationwide and probably in Texas, but nothing is going to change until women start to die — even death as a catalyst to change is questionable in red states since most RepubliKKKlans are part of a death cult where dying is just part of the political platform. People are collateral damage for the greater good: Government control over women’s personal freedoms. (And so to be control over gay people as well. Mark my words!) Idiot political pundits and dumbass Democrats keep believing (incorrectly and naively) that abortion rights are going to change the political landscape in places like Texas. It won’t — ever! As I’ve been saying for years now, abortion rights are always someone else’s problem; people don’t care, and like everything else in people’s lives, they’re simply tuned out to the most consequential events and political questions of the day. Only after it’s too late do people ask, “What happened?” Oh, well. Welcome to stupid America! Same sh*t, different day.

In a Salon piece, Amanda Marcotte writes, “So why on Earth are so many voters not getting this? The reason is what political scientist Brian Klaas deems the ‘Ignorance Bias,’ which is where ‘political elites assume most other people think about politics often and have a basic working knowledge of it that is rooted in facts and reality.’ This, as he points out, is a false assumption, as most people barely pay attention to politics. For example, more than half of Americans cannot name a single Supreme Court justice. Most people’s understanding of the news is cursory and impressionistic, cobbled together by half-read headlines, glanced-at images on the news, and vaguely sourced assertions on social media. For those folks who are mostly checked out and satisfy themselves with occasionally looking up at the TV news while getting dressed in the morning, the landscape of information is very different than that of those who are paying attention. … It’s tempting to lay the blame entirely at the feet of ordinary voters for not paying attention. And yes, there’s some blame here, because people really could siphon a half-hour out of their day away from watching reality TV garbage to be a little better informed about politics. But the truth is that politics is boring and hard for most people, and most people are under enough stress as it is, so of course they tune out more than they should. The media has done everyone a disservice by propping up the illusion that the presidential run of either Trump or Biden is in doubt [blah, blah, blah].”

So, the article is partly correct. Despite what the author writes, I do blame — entirely — “ordinary voters for not paying attention.” And I get a bit sick and tired of dumbass Democrats and Progressives blaming the media all the f***ing time. To be sure, I get frustrated with the MSM about their coverage of some stories (e.g., giving too much time to the Palestinian perspective of the war), but there is no way the media has been as neglectful as Marcotte would have you believe, except for Fox News, which has been biased for 25 years and giving traitor trump a free pass for his entire political life. The media is just an easy scapegoat for liberal journalists (and liberals at large), who, apparently, don’t actually monitor the MSM as much as they should before passing such judgments, lest they would understand that the MSM does, in fact, report on those topics that Progressives believe are being ignored or whitewashed. Contrary to what Marcotte may like to think, for example, the MSM has been sounding the alarm about the threat to democracy that traitor trump poses. All one has to do is tune into MSNBC and CNN long enough or read any one of several articles in The Washington Post, The New York Times, or The Atlantic, to name a few publications, to comprehend the danger to democracy of traitor trump returning to the White House.

But therein lies the rub! Liberal journalists, like Marcotte, seem to fall into the same “Ignorance Bias” that they accuse voters of doing. I usually respect Salon writers, but they seem to blame everything on “corporate media” and their profit motive. The thing is that you have to pay attention to the MSM. Sometimes you need to read between the lines: Understand what questions they asked and, more importantly, what they didn’t ask; what words they chose to use to describe a situation; whether they pushed back to answers from an interviewee; what stories they prioritize and which ones they ignore or only give passing reference to. This is how you critically take in reporting from the MSM. Most important of all, you should seek out multiple sources and, for the love of f***ing God, don’t rely solely on social media for news, if at all; don’t limit yourself to what is simply proffered to you on your “news feed.” Now, what I have just described is what basically 90 percent of morons of America do, which is why Americans are so f***ing stupid and willfully ignorant. Marcotte correctly claims politics is boring for most people, but that is no excuse for people not being plugged in. The problem is that morons of America are so engrossed in the trivial that they lose all sight of what really matters. To ignore politics and civics is turning a blind eye to that facet of life that most directly dictates your life. F***tards may think politics does not impact them, for they are all masters of their own domain. Tell that to women in post this post-Roe world. Eh, whatever! Nothing actually matters. I keep hearing political pundits and experts (actual experts and not “experts”) warn that America is sleepwalking right into authoritarianism. No truer words have ever been spoken; all one needs do is look around to understand this is happening as we speak. Oh, well. No one cares because I live in stupid f***ing hell. Welcome to stupid America.

Mark Leibovich writes in The Atlantic, “In the last spring of the Obama administration, Michelle Obama was delivering her final commencement address as first lady, at City College of New York. Then, as now, the specter of Donald Trump had become the inescapable backdrop to everything. He’d spent the past year smashing every precept of restraint, every dignified tradition of the supposedly kindhearted nation he was seeking to lead. Obama couldn’t help but lob some barely cloaked denunciations of Trump’s wrecking-ball presidential campaign—the one that would soon be ratified with the Republican nomination. ‘That is not who we are,’ the first lady assured the graduates. ‘That is not what this country stands for, no.’ The promise did not age well. Not that November, and not since. … In retrospect, so many of the high-minded appeals of the Obama era—‘We are the ones we’ve been waiting for’; ‘When they go low, we go high’—feel deeply naive. Question for Michelle: What if they keep going lower and lower—and that keeps landing the lowest of the low back in the White House? … You can dismiss Trump voters all you want, but give them this: They’re every bit as American as any idealized vision of the place. If Trump wins in 2024, his detractors will have to reckon once again with the voters who got us here—to reconcile what it means to share a country with so many citizens who keep watching Trump spiral deeper into his moral void and still conclude, ‘Yes, that’s our guy.’”

I really wish I had started this blog before traitor trump won in 2016, for I have been warning (thinking to myself and telling friends) for years — since 2015 — that traitor trump would win, and this (he) is precisely who “we” are! Un-f***ing-believable. I tell you, Michelle Obama lost all credibility with me when she (and President Obama) affirmed some variation of “That is not who we are” or more grating to the ears when Michelle said, “When they go low, we go high.” Are you f***ing kidding me with this sh*t?!?! F*** me! F*** me hard! This is exactly the type of dumbass Democrats’ delusional thinking and wish-casting that keeps half the country in some sort of blind happy trance, unwilling and unable to confront the threat that is 45 percent of Americans. And I think dumbass Democrats are still a bit reluctant to face the truth about our nation: A good 45 percent of Americans view the rest of us as the enemy, yet the sanguine moronic happy-clappy majority remains completely and utterly oblivious to the storm that is brewing, relying on such vapid platitudes and tropes like “it can’t happen here” or “checks and balances” will keep another traitor trump administration in line or “it can’t be that bad.” All this group-think is not going to stop fascism from taking over America’s government. I’m telling you, f***tards, people need to wake the f*** up and snap out of the wishful thinking haze that infects the rest of the 55 percent of Americans, for I promise you half the country eyes the other half as the enemy to be conquered and subdued; they want dictator traitor trump. Why is this so f***ing difficult for Americans to apprehend? This is not a recondite subject like quantum physics. This is straightforward and straight-up authoritarianism knocking at our door. You can’t fight these people with “going high.” Un-f***ing-believable. I can’t! I just f***ing can’t with the stupid anymore. Welcome to stupid America! All dumb, all the time. Biden is merely the intermission to the end, f***tards!

Steven Rattner published an essay in The New York Times titled “People Are Pessimistic About Their Economic Futures. Can You Blame Them?” Anyone who watches Morning Joe on MSNBC will know about Rattner’s charts. Even though he served as counselor to the Treasury secretary in the Obama administration, I sometimes sour on his early analysis of the causes of inflation, which he attributed to Biden’s American Rescue Plan (aka COVID-19 Stimulus Package) and Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. When inflation was at its highest, Rattner essentially blamed Biden’s legislation for pumping too much money into the economy. I think that was wrongheaded. Clearly, inflation during COVID was a supply issue, and it is starting to be revealed that some companies engaged in price gouging — classic American capitalism opportunism that morons of America promptly blame on Biden. And any stimulus package passed was to help people stay afloat; it was not “flooding” the economy with more money than could be absorbed. As for the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Rattner blamed Biden as being inflationary. The ink had hardly dried on the legislation before Rattner linked it to inflation. Does idiot Rattner realize there is a long lag time between legislation becoming law and actually getting funding out the door? It’s not like the law becomes enacted on day one, and money for projects starts rushing out of the treasury on day two, but Rattner would have you believe that is the case. It is perhaps only now — years later — that funds for all these projects have been fully (or are being fully) realized in the economy. And where is inflation now? Three or four percent? Hardly the eight and nine percent a couple of years ago. Of course, you no longer hear Rattner blaming Biden’s legislation accomplishments.

Although, he makes a passing comment about Biden’s legislation still being inflationary in his article. Yet, he surprisingly thinks idiot Americans actually understand a link (that does not exist as strongly as he would like us to believe) when he says, “Maybe [the failure of “Bidenomics” to resonate with people] shouldn’t be surprising. Voters may have internalized the fact that Mr. Biden’s initial policy agenda included substantial increases in government spending, a potential source of inflationary pressure [emphasis added].” Hilarious! Americans have “internalized” the impacts of Biden’s legislative accomplishes to inflation. I promise you that moronic Americas have internalized nothing much less apprehend economic theory. Their reactions to inflation are purely Pavlovian. Indeed, people are still spending like it’s 1999. Morons are more upset that the economy hasn’t returned to pre-pandemic levels, which is never going to happen, for COVID has fundamentally changed the global economy. People are mad about that and blame Biden. It’s really that simple, requiring very little thoughtful analysis — you know, the same level of “sophisticated” thought the average American idiot utilizes. Can’t undo the Stupid that is America!

According to Axios, “U.S. oil production has touched new record highs in recent weeks. American production is part of the reason that recent efforts by OPEC — and its strategic ally, Russia — haven’t been able to end the slide in global oil prices. Economic weakness in China — the world’s largest oil importer — is dampening demand and also playing a role in the price drop. U.S. benchmark oil prices are down nearly 20% in the fourth quarter, to below $75 a barrel. The national average price for a gallon of regular gasoline is $3.24, according to AAA. That’s down 5% in the last month.”

Once again, here we are: Biden is the worst f***ing president we’ve ever had. There isn’t a day that goes by when Biden is actively trying to (and succeeding at) killing this booming economy. On every front, he is failing! Look at oil production! Look at it! It’s at an all-time high, driving down (or keeping down) oil prices. Wait! What the f***ing hell?!?! I thought Biden was anti-oil and anti-American production. I thought he wanted a windmill on every front lawn and solar panels covering every roof. And if you live near a creek, then he wants a dam built to produce electricity for your individual needs. I thought traitor trump was the only person capable of producing more oil. I mean, he just declared the other day during his dictator for a day (read: for life) speech that he would immediately force recalcitrant companies to “drill, baby, drill!” because, you know, apparently, they’re not already doing that since Biden has his thumbs plugging every oil well.

Moreover, I thought Biden was intentionally inflating gas prices to hurt the little guy. Then I come to find out that American oil production, which is obviously being kept suppressed by Joe Biden, is exceeding all other nations and helping to keep gas prices down. Yet, in this sh*t-for-brains country, Americans think Biden is pushing up gas prices as if it is some personal vendetta against them. Americans blame Biden — for nothing! Blame him for their poor perceptions because Americans are too f***ing stupid to actually understand the world around them. Un-f***ing-believable. I live in stupid f***ing hell. Biden is going to lose the next election to traitor trump because f***tard Americans mistakenly blame Biden for “higher” gas prices and his apparent aversion to domestic energy production when, in fact, everything points to the contrary. Welcome to stupid America! Too stupid to endure! Mark my words!

Christ-on-the-m*****f***ing-Cross! From Politico, “Democrats are increasingly acknowledging that pairing a bipartisan border deal with new Ukraine aid is unraveling for one major reason: Most in the party never wanted this negotiation in the first place.” This is a no-brainer, dumbass Democrats. Hello, morons! If you have to “sacrifice” the southern border for Ukraine aid, then f***ing “built that wall.” (And I say that in the abstract.) To reiterate for everyone, I am completely agnostic to immigration. Come. Don’t come. I don’t care. Preferably, come legally. And building a wall is a complete waste of money. In terms of the “issue” at the southern border, this is an optics problem as much as it is a policy problem, and dumbass Democrats are f***ing up the optics left, right, and center. And they seem to be passing up an easy win by refusing to pair border funding (or “reform”) with Ukraine aid. (Assuming RepubliKKKlans actually want a deal on the border, which in all likelihood they probably don’t, lest they lose an election red meat issue with the crazies.) Despite my views, I can say with certainty that Independents — again, the key voting block that will determine the next president — view the southern border as a f***ing mess that Biden is essentially ignoring.

And I have no f***ing clue why the Biden administration and other dumbass Democrats in leadership are bowing to the far left. Are they afraid of pissing off the Progressives? Look, they’re already pissed off because of Israel, and Lord knows what else is stuck in their craw. And if the far left thinks that protecting immigrants at the border is more important than defending democracy in Ukraine against Russian aggression, then the Democratic Party is f***ing lost. If I had to choose between the two, Ukraine would always win, and I would gladly throw immigrants under the bus to ensure Ukraine’s victory. Honestly, the Democratic Party really needs to start playing hardball with their left wing. Where else are Progressives and uber-Liberals going to go? Vote for traitor trump? Sit out the next election? Fine! Do it! At this point, I just f***ing give up. I can’t help someone if they are willing to cut off their nose despite their face. If these people want to destroy the nation because of the border, then do it. But don’t come crying and whining to me when you get your wish. Welcome to stupid America!

From RawStory, “Former President Donald Trump didn’t directly answer Sean Hannity’s interview question about whether he would act as a dictator and punish his political enemies if given a second term, just saying that he would do some dictatorial things on ‘day one’ and then not after that. But according to Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN), you shouldn’t take any of that seriously.” So, two things here. First, traitor trump is saying the quiet part out loud — again…still. Indeed, if you listen to the Hannity interview, then it is pretty clear traitor trump knows he can get away with saying such things as the audience erupts into cheers and applause. And he means it. Second, right on cue, fellow RepubliKKKlans dismiss his in-plain-sight plans to end democracy as simply traitor trump being traitor trump. Nothing to see here and nothing to worry about. There are no flashing red lights. Not only is this the mindset of all RepubliKKKlans, but it would seem a majority of Independents who will decide the next presidential election believe the same. And therein lies the problem: Too many f***tards that are too stupid to learn from the past and apprehend what’s right before their eyes. I keep telling you that America is simply too f***ing stupid to keep its democracy. And people just don’t f*** care. Mark my words, morons! The end is already here; you just haven’t realized it yet! Welcome to stupid America!

According to NBC News, “’ Reports of women raped — repeatedly raped — and their bodies being mutilated while still alive, of women’s corpses being desecrated, Hamas terrorists inflicting as much pain and suffering on women and girls as possible and then murdering them. It is appalling,’ the president said. … The most voluminous evidence is of bodily mutilation of sexual organs by bullet, knife or even scissors, according to an NBC News analysis of the evidence currently available. ‘They had a thing with sexual organs, both in women and men,’ a first responder told police in videotaped testimony. A woman whose job it was to open the body bags of women and prepare their bodies for burial told NBC News in an interview Monday that she saw multiple female corpses that had been mutilated. ‘They were shot in the vagina, they were shot in the breast,’ she said. ‘And this seemed like a systematic attempt at genital mutilation.’… ‘They laid a woman down and I understood that he is raping her …they passed her on to another person,’ the witness told police in a video reviewed by NBC News. ‘And he cuts her breasts, he throws it on the road they are playing with it.’”

First, Islam is the worst f***ing religion in the world — bar none. Only Muslims engage in such barbaric behavior and have spread terrorism worldwide for decades — nay, hundreds of years. Especially in the last several decades, we have been forced to suffer under the spread of Islamic terrorism, all the while having to hear disclaimers about how Islam is primarily a religion of “peace.” Muslims sure do have a weird notion of peace, and as I have written countless times previously, please show me where in the world Jews or Christians routinely inflict terrorism (e.g., 9/11) and barbarism (e.g., Sharia law whereby women are treated like second class citizens, criminals are publicly hanged, and many more religious goodies) on the rest of the world. Nowhere! It does not happen. Any Muslim who has not lost their religion for what is routinely done in the name of Islam is just part of the problem.

Second, while the generalities of the savagery described above have been known shortly after Hamas attacked Israel, the specifics are relatively new, if not more starkly and vividly presented. In light of these new accounts, what then is my opinion of Israel’s prosecution of the war in Gaza? Unchanged from before. I say root out Hamas everywhere it exists, and if civilians — innocent men, women, and children — get in the way and die as a result, then oh, f***ing well. Too bad! I really don’t give a f***. And I’m not sure why this is so confusing or complicated. The terrorist group Hamas, which is also the duly elected government of the Gaza Strip, attacked and declared war on Israel, and now Israel is taking the war to the Palestinians. I utterly fail to see the problem with this and why the world is so outraged that Israel is defending itself. (I’m sure Jew hatred explains everything.) Were Americans and the world, for that matter, all up in arms when the U.S. military firebombed Tokyo during WW II, which, by the way, killed more people than either Hiroshima or Nagasaki? No! Israel razing the Gaza Strip and the collateral damage (civilian deaths) is no different in any way. So, if Hamas felt the need to cut off the breasts of Israeli women as an act of terrorism, then I am entirely copacetic with Israel extracting many more pounds of flesh by killing Palestinian children. I am unsympathetic. An eye for an eye! It is a bromide as old as the Torah (and Bible) itself.

Do morons of America even know what NATO is? Why it’s important? I doubt it because I live in stupid f***ing hell, surrounded by idiots of the highest f***ing order. Surrounded in an America that is so f***ing stupid that people elected traitor trump once, and they’re about to do it again! One thing traitor trump repeatedly threatened to do in his first term was to “leave” NATO. Now, in his second, this is a promise. And I guess I should clarify the term “leave.” A president cannot unilaterally undo a treaty, although it would appear that at least 45 percent of this sh*t-for-brains country would gladly crown traitor trump as sovereign king. Rather, traitor trump can certainly ignore our treaty obligations, and this is where Article 5 and our financial support to the organization become germane.

First, the 2 percent of our GDP contribution to NATO that traitor trump kept bitching about in his first term will end. Even this needs clarification because traitor trump constantly misstated what this 2 percent obligation actually means. He persistently insisted to (misled) Americans that we send cash to NATO nations, which is just f***ing wrong. The 2 percent requirement means that we’ll contribute to the NATO alliance by funding expenses to maintain our own military hardware and readiness, and to be able to come to the defense of other treaty members, who have mutual interests as our own. In short, we will spend money to maintain our military consistent with NATO joint requirements, be able to conduct military training exercises with other alliance nations, and be able to join NATO operations when and where required. Included in this financial obligation is helping to fund the budget. For example, NATO has a headquarters; someone has to pay for the administration of the alliance. In this sense, yes, we “send” money to the alliance along with everyone else. But we are not giving money to other countries to bolster their economy. Sadly, as with everything in this country of morons, people believe we are sending pallets of cash to foreigners. That’s not how NATO works. So, expect traitor trump to pull out of any existing NATO operations and training exercises immediately. In short, he’ll pick up his ball and run home like the petulant child that he is.

Second, we come to Article 5, which is the essence of the whole defensive nature of NATO. Without Article 5, the treaty is worthless. Traitor trump will immediately announce his intention to ignore the covenant because he just doesn’t f***ing care, just like the hoards of other f***tard Americans who don’t give a sh*t either. And no one can stop him from doing it! As the commander-in-chief, no politician, political party, or court can force him to active the military if NATO needs help. For those not familiar with Article 5, it reads as follows:

The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and consequently they agree that, if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence recognised by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area.

Any such armed attack and all measures taken as a result thereof shall immediately be reported to the Security Council. Such measures shall be terminated when the Security Council has taken the measures necessary to restore and maintain international peace and security .

The North Atlantic Treaty (1949)

This is the famous “an attack on one is an attack on all” article, for short. Notice that the wording of these paragraphs is vague, so how member nations should specifically act is not explicitly defined. And Article 5 has only been invoked once in NATO’s history, so there is not a lot of precedent. Does anyone know what event precipitated the once-in-history activation of Article 5? Any f***tard American out there know the answer to this question? Any moron in the audience have a clue? Don’t be shy. Speak up. Shout your wrong answer. Time’s up — pencils down. The answer is 9/11, and the only country that ever triggered Article 5 is The United States of America! And what did other NATO nations do when we called on them to join us to purge Al Qaeda from Afghanistan? They did not hesitate. I know morons of America like to think that our mighty nation single-handedly invaded and conquered Afghanistan in vengeance. While we were the primary military force in the coalition, it was a joint effort that included help from the U.K., Canada, and Australia, among dozens of other nations that gave support in different ways.

Fast forward 20 years, and now Americans seem hell-bent on electing a dictator who wants to essentially ignore our commitment to NATO. How ironic and utterly fitting that Americans should turn their backs on a defensive alliance that once helped us. I expected nothing less from Americans. Only in America can a populace be so f***ing ignorant, arrogant, and selfish. No wonder America is simultaneously admired and despised by the world. Because we pull sh*t like this. We are signaling a big middle finger to the rest of the world and to our allies. An international f*** you! You helped us once upon a time, but don’t expect us to return the favor! Un-f***ing-believable.

Now, I trust individual Americans do not intentionally mean to tell the rest of the world to f*** off (or maybe that is precisely what they intend), but our collective ignorance and lack of understanding of our own history make us blind and consequently stupid. What’s the outcome? An America that does not apprehend the significance of NATO and is willing to (or unwittingly) abandon the alliance that has ensured relative peace for the last 70 years. For I promise you, Russia will start invading former U.S.S.R. satellite countries in Europe (e.g., Poland), understanding that traitor trump in the White House means America will be a no-show if any NATO country invokes Article 5. Because, of course! But you know what? Maybe this sh*t-for-brains country (world) needs a good old-fashioned world war to remind themselves just how good the peace has been. There is a not-so-insignificant part of me that thinks Americans are rather bored with their lives and very likely want traitor trump — and all the chaos he’ll bring to the world — back for purely entertainment value because why not? This is what a dying democratic nation looks like! Welcome to stupid America. Too stupid to endure. Mark my words!
