    Yeah there's ZERO FUCKING CHANCE the US recovers from this shit. Every country on the planet is gonna wanna pull the fuck out of whatever they have going on with us.

    In other news,

    Nintendo Suing U.S. Government Over Tariffs

    https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/1rmlyqe/nintendo_suing_us_government_over_tariffs/

    There was some other shit that happened that probably also spicied things up.

    I don't think anyone gives a shit about Iran. It's only a concern if oil prices go up. Zero ME nations assisting them in any way, particularly after Iran fired ballistic missiles in every direction. They've been essentially abandon by China and Russia.

    For the US it's just Trump doing something else retarded to build out a legacy, which he certainly is, just not the one he wants. Another political liability for the GOP created out of thin air lmao.

    Are you new here? Aren't you older than me?

    Do you not remember 2003?

    Other countries will still want to do business with the #1 economy in the world.

    I'm not saying it's right or it's wrong.

    Think about this: Germany recovered from their Nazi days.
    Who remembers Italy's Mussolini times?

    We are living through some shit times right now.

    Lastly, I will not cry one single, salty tear over any Muslim cleric getting killed. It's a religion of hate, no matter what the practitioners try to tell you.

    If you don't think that the economic relationship will be DRASTICALLY altered, then I don't know what to say.

    Canada, for instance, is saying "fuck the US, long term, and we're now diversifying our economic relationships".

    That means we're pulling a shit-ton of our trade/etc from the US and looking elsewhere.

    This week alone, we've signed long term deals with India and Japan.

    You guys fucked up... big time... and it's going to hurt everyone for a very long time.

    Yeah, but y'all aren't doing that because we took out an elementary school. You started doing it because of retaliatory tarrifs and months of Trump trying make Canada his bitch. Y'all didn't let him, so bravo.

    Man, we do sound like some assholes when you read a tiny paragraph like that one.

    Yeah ok lol. $50 billion in bilateral trade by 2030 is almost a rounding error, and that's if it doesn't go the direction of the India-EU deal.

    Nettdata said what I was gonna say. It's less the humanitarian thing and more being seen as the batshit crazy ones who cause global unrest of all kinds for shits and giggles.

    I'd happily donate to your go-fund-me if you provided legit video evidence and reactions.

    One absolutely bananas thing is with ALL of the wild shit that's happened up until this point, it's things like oil prices going up that's the problem.
    It just goes to show how far the US has drifted from being a serious democracy.

    We've been role playing as a 3rd world country for awhile now. It's almost like not holding people responsible for trying to overthrow democracy is bad.

    You got out at the right time dude.

    Dude, Australia is going down the shitter, too. For different reasons. The same economic decline and cost of living crisis as any other first world country. And, unless he stays in the most populated areas, he has to deal with all the fucking wildlife trying to kill him. Spiders and fucking marsupials that look like they've just left the fuckin prison yard, all jacked and shit.

    True, everyone is having some issues. They still have things like a functioning democracy and a decent healthcare system. I'd migrate there in a minute if I could, but I'm way too damn old. C'est la vie.
