No serious nation in the history of warfare has spent fourteen months insulting its allies, siding with their common enemy, and then knocked on their door expecting them to rescue a catastrophe of its own making.
You abused the UK. Threatened Canada. Tried to grab Greenland. Called the EU an adversary. Praised Putin. Hosted Kremlin officials in the Capitol. Abandoned Ukraine. And did all of it loudly, proudly, and on camera.
And now you are surprised that nobody is returning your calls.
You want European boots on the ground? Start by explaining why America is more aligned with Moscow than with Brussels.
Take your time. We will wait.

The Europeans are not dealing with โa man.โ They are dealing with the United States of America. The United States needed the most innocuous kind of cooperation from them. They denied the United States that cooperation. The implied argument is that their obligations within our alliance depend on whether they like the guy we chose as our president. โSure, weโre alliesโฆif we approve of who you elected.โ Nope. We are not going to forget, and weโre not going to forgive. Iโm indifferent to their excuses or their rationalizations. The United States of America needed their help and not very much help. They turned us down. That changes everything. And they arenโt going to like how it changes everything.

@CrazyNatedog @PeteMcIntosh @longUSAinvestor @Microinteracti1 Unfortunately that difference isnโt making a difference. It seems to be remarkably difficult to unseat that lunatic and his administration.

@PeteMcIntosh @longUSAinvestor @Microinteracti1 He does not represent America, he represents MAGA. There is a difference.

@RussellC38848 @JamiePrice44 @helloKi30596224 You may want to fact check your data before swallowing what Robert Bates prints and throwing the word 'ignorant' around. This 'data' has been widely criticised for being highly unreliable.
English
@JimQbert @JamiePrice44 @helloKi30596224 No, you are a cunt. An ignorant one at that.
You completely ignore the devastation that migrants, or offspring thereof, have caused with terrorism, rape gangs, death threats, murders.

I live nextdoor to a pair of Reform voters.
They are a pair of the unhappiest,
most unpopular and least successful people I have ever met.
I'm not sure how thay expect Reform to improve their lives.

@BillySed9735 @JamiePrice44 @helloKi30596224 It's not a slur. People resort to verbal or physical violence as a result of maladaptive coping mechanisms, poor emotional regulation, cognitive distortions, a desire to exert power & control, and so on. In other words, the intellectual capacity for reasoned argument is lost.
English
@JimQbert @JamiePrice44 @helloKi30596224 Ok itโs a moot point, but nevertheless Iโd expect a so-called teacher of conflict psychology not to so readily employ a slur - you ought to be better than that.
English
@BillySed9735 @JamiePrice44 @helloKi30596224 Wrong. I described the use of ad hominem attacks as a signature of those incapable of reasoned argument. Nothing to do with a different opinion.
English
@JimQbert @JamiePrice44 @helloKi30596224 Quite funny that you allegedly โ teach conflict psychologyโ but resort to calling others with a different opinion โintellectually incapableโฆ.โ.
English
@JamiePrice44 @helloKi30596224 Ah yes, ad hominem attacks - weapon of choice for those intellectually incapable of reasonable discourse.

@HamiltonNashHR @helloKi30596224 Jim is a cunt.. donโt be like Jim.

@naiivememe Consider thisโฆ
Raiders of the Lost Ark was made in 1981 and the story was set in 1936. A 45 year time difference.
Itโs been 45 years since 1981.
Weโre as far away from the release of Raiders as Raiders was from the year in which the plot was based!

MLDโs never seem to know how cameras work
They donโt ever seem to understand how eyes function in light
A few moments Googling these topics and they would be educated and free from their ongoing and embarrassing stupidity
Alas.

@londonfox2030 @C229292 @helloKi30596224 It's a problem for both the left and right, I guess it's a bit like 'horseshoe' theory. The far left and far right have a lot in common - a hatred of opposing views and a desire to coerce opposition into seeing things their way.
English
@HamiltonNashHR @C229292 @helloKi30596224 Particularly applying to those who think that robing the rich is a solution. Hard left is full of hatred. We can see it with our own eyes - all those hate marches. Awful. They donโt suggest anything positive, only hate.

If you're gonna get old, at least do it with some style.

@HamiltonNashHR @helloKi30596224 Youโve just described the greens if you swap immigrant for millionaires. ๐๐๐
English
@HamiltonNashHR @helloKi30596224 Your bio appears like it should indicate that you know better than this statement. Clearly we need to bring back the meritocracy.
English
@C229292 @helloKi30596224 Indeed, itโs the concept of โoutgtoupsโ in social psychology, which in this particular instance I am applying to Reform voters.
English
@HamiltonNashHR @helloKi30596224 You could replace:
Reform to Greens/Labour
Immigrants to Billionaires/White working class
And this tweet would still work.

Two spaces between sentences was a visual clarity aid for typewritten text. It is no more a part of English grammar than 1.5 line spacing is.

Somebody please tell this fool my mother was a high school typing teacher and itโs grammatically correct to use 2 spaces. Take a seat clown
