Donald Trump has alienated all U.S. allies...

"Sold us out," is the way "Miles Taylor, who during Trump’s first term served as Deputy Chief of Staff in the Department of Homeland Security and famously revealed the existence of a resistance group within the administration," explained how Donald Trump is "abandoning our friends," around the world. On AlterNet, Taylor is very specific in citing incidents in South Korea, switching to the Pacific and the dilemma of two aircraft carriers, then over to Europe, with, perhaps, the worst of the three, where Satellite imagery makes it clear...

"Russia is building a network of secret drone bases within striking distance of NATO, with storage for a thousand attack drones at a single site."

To start, it would appear that Dufus Rump's love affair with Kim Jong Un has been rekindled, but if Trump thinks Vladimir Putin is coming to the party, he needs to think again. Taylor reports a Russian drone, loaded with explosives, was found at the Leipzig airport. The White House maniac has been trying to dump NATO for some time now with this being our current position...

"Western planners are quietly admitting they have no real plan for NATO’s nightmare scenario, a coordinated Russian and Chinese strike on two fronts, at the very moment Trump has hollowed out the alliance that exists to prevent such a surprise attack.”

I have been writing about the fact that both China's Xi and Russia's Putin must be keeping

Xi - Trump -Putin
their eye on the fact that Donald Trump is exhausting the U.S. munitions supply on the Iran War, and now both are probably completely giddy that Trump is shunning the very allies that could help him defend the U.S. against aggression. You have to wonder what they are waiting on. Taylor says Trump is pissed at South Korea because they wouldn't support him in the Iran War, calling Kim and North Korea "unthreatening and respectful."

Then, the author reminds Trump of the possibility during his first term that North Korea might launch a nuclear attack on the continental United States because Kim Jong Un was so "respectful." In the old days under rational and levelheaded presidents, the U.S. could take out North Korea in a heart beat. Today, under Donald Trump, I wouldn't bet on the outcome. At any rate, Kim could probably woo the Oval Office lunatic into laying down our arms so Trump could play dictator with his North Korean counterpart.

Just to show you how unsure Donald Trump is of himself and his administration, the Pentagon, under the direction of, perhaps, Dufus' top moron, Pete Hegseth, sent all U.S. allies a questionnaire asking whether these countries are adhering to President Donald Trump’s vision for the transatlantic alliance. In an Al Jazeera exclusive...
"The questionnaire asks pointedly whether the allies have been 'publicly supportive of US foreign policy priorities.'”

They don't just have to support us, they also have to call all their friends and neighbors and tell them about the fact that they are supporting the U.S. Whose imbecilic idea was it to embark on a PR program right in the middle of a war that most of America's allies oppose?

GOP congressman Don Bacon: Pete Hegseth "Stupid as Hell"
And there is yet more stupidity, compliments of Hegseth...

"Another bullet point poses the query, “Has the country shown alignment with the US approach to [be] ‘strong, clear, and quiet?'” a reference to a phrase used by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in his address at the Shangri-La Dialogue in May." 

And just last week, China's Xi, who is a major Iranian trading partner, flat rejected Trump’s ‘economic D-Day’ threat where he vowed “tremendous economic consequences” against countries that continue to do business with Tehran. There's more...

Tehran also condemned the US president’s economic threat, with the Iranian Foreign Ministry warning that those who order or implement the levies “are liable to prosecution and punishment.” 
Tehran called the threat the "other side of the coin of war." And CNN analysts commented...
Several analysts told CNN they were skeptical that Trump’s claims would have the desired impact on an Iranian regime that has withstood oppressive economic sanctions from major world powers.

Let's take a quick look at the countries Donald Trump has alienated, and why...
  • Canada over tariffs -

  • France over the Iran War - 
  • Italy over Iran War - 
  • Germany over foreign policy - 
  • Denmark over Trump Greenland threats - 
  • So. Korea over removal military support -
  • Japan over Trump's big mouth -
  • Australia over tariffs -
When you look at the above list, it is obvious the United States has nowhere to turn for help in a state of emergency. Except to Trump's authoritarian friends whose assistance always comes with a catch. There is no free lunch, as the saying goes, and you can bet that Kim, Putin, Erdogan, Xi and all of Dufus Rump's other dictatorial cronies would extract every drop of blood available from the White House maniac before they finally cut him loose. He's an idiot, they know it, the world knows it, and that is the problem.
