    Spot on. The billions in commitment will be completely forgotten in the next trade spat

    I thought I heard you cuks are sending a mine sweeping ship to help out orange man?

    Edit: mine sweeping *drones*

  3. Trump was crystal clear that he does not want or need our help. We are happy to respect his boundaries in this instance.

  4. I am emphatically against supporting Trump in his idiotic and misguided foreign ventures. Aside from the bad politics of it all the man is a complete and utter cunt who doesn’t deserve any support. He will throw a tantrum, we shouldn’t care. All he deserves is impeachment, a process which the American political system doesn’t apparently deem necessary, probably because the sex offender in chief enjoys a lot of support. 

    I think Trump needs reminding of his own words, namely that he didn’t need support, that Nato troops stayed a little behind the front and we can throw in his own draft dodging habits for good measure. 

    If he really does finally understand that the US is out of its depth then he needs to activate Article 5 (again). The United States is the only country that has ever utilised said article so they should know how to do so pretty well.

  5. The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Saturday. “That’s OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don’t need them any longer – But we will remember.
    “We don’t need people that join Wars after we’ve already won!”
    Speaking on Air Force One in response to a question about the use of UK bases in the war, Trump referred to his post on Truth Social, saying: “We don’t need them,” appearing to reference the carriers.

    Pat McFadden, by the way. The thumbnail seems to imply this is Starmer saying this

  7. Transactional isn’t really right, prostitution is transactional, Trump is more like rape.

    It’s enduring, and I think it will outlast all the personalities involved.”

    Not all countries (🇨🇦) feel that way.

    Can’t help but feel that hes going to try to invoke art 5 and say this whole thing was defensive. And when everyone disagrees and does not respond he can say “see, NATO is one sided – we need to end it” (for his domestic audience).

    Either way – you know you made a blunder as an American leader if even good old Britain won’t send a ship or two to help you in a scrap. 

    Who woukd have thought waging economic war on allies, belittling allies contributions to conflicts and using every extortion threat against allies who disobey – while cozying up to the bad guys – would actually be a problem?

  10. Why would any country be willing to become a party to a “terrorist act” which might lead to possible “genocide”?
    Remember what Trump said, “We will continue bombing them just for the fun of it”.

    >Donald Trump is a “very transactional” president, whose repeated demands on Iran must be seen in this context, one of Keir Starmer’s most senior ministers has said in an unusually blunt UK assessment of relations between the countries.

    *said in a very accurate assessment of relations*

    The 🇺🇸 “worldwide bully” is now being bullied back, and is desperately asking for help. 😎 Guess what happens to people like that? 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

  13. Why is Trump not asking his actual ally for help here? You know, the one where he only has praises for? Russia?

  14. Trump is not a trustworthy person. He continues to prove this daily. Why would anyone believe a word he says. Eventually he will ask for our boots on the ground to invade Iran. Then blame us for the complete f up that resulted.

  15. Trump said, “We don’t need people that join Wars after we’ve already won!”‘, so why would UK join Trump in this war that has been won?

    NATO is to ensure that no members are attacked. It doesn’t mean you get to get drunk and start a bar fight because you can count on your crew to jump in when you get hit back.

  17. UK not obliged to support ~~every~~ any demand of ‘transactional’ US president, minister says
