And there might be bird flu and his cracy health minister… What could possibly go wrong?
‘Day One’ LOL. This dude has 123,964 things scheduled for ‘day one’. The man who didn’t get to works before Noon when he was pretending to play president last time. He will be playing golf on ‘day one’.
It doesn’t really matter if this doesn’t happen on day one if they’re still planning on doing it pretty quickly. And based on the article, they are.
Real Donald Agenda
Day 1: order 12 mcdonalds egg mcmuffins w/ham & cheese, +16 hash browns throw away biden’s portrait, & kamala’s too order 60,000 tiny bottles of ketchup order CVS’ entire inventory of hair spray order 73.8 gallons of orange foundation practice saying ‘huuuuge’ 37 times in the mirror find a box of sharpies and change the weather change his ringtone to say ‘it’s a hoax’. make all the republicans send him fawning text messages play golf
It needs a really sick mind in seeing any kind of advantage in such a move.
I have to say that I am totally fine with the US no longer having influence over the WHO.
That would be minimum 15% of their budget wiped out. If we force other US charities (really just 1) to stop, or “convince” them not to we could be talking about a 30% decline in revenue.
That’s roughly a billion / a, nothing other countries couldn’t compensate if necessary. I’d rather have my country foot the bill than RFK Jr. having any influence on the WHO.
In exchange, the WHO gets to make sane policies about vaccines, women’s health, and sexual identity. Could easily be worth it.
If you think the US is the only place where people have backwards views towards vaccines, women’s health, or trans rights I have some bad news for you
It’s not the only place, but it’s particularly loud and forceful about swinging those views around internationally.
If that means the Trump administration not having sway over WHO, it’s probably worth it.
Yea, it’d be pretty fucking awesome. Maybe we can convince the US to withdraw from the security council and surrender their veto power as well?
Then we could use our nukes instead of diplomacy! Nothing like wiping countries off the map because we disagree with them.
Entirely ignorant to soft power
Soft power is for soft people! Trump is hard! That’s why he’s coming in threatening just about everyone. That makes him strong and hard!
And his followers lap it up.
Not as hard as Arnold Palmer.
I did not need an image of Trump being hard. Even Melania doesn’t want to see that anymore at this point.
Good news is you’d have to make it up, since there’s nothing in real life to base it on.
He was just today saying about Musk:
"No, he’s not going to be president, that I can tell you,” Trump said. “And I’m safe. You know why he can’t be? He wasn’t born in this country.”
No understanding of soft power whatsoever.
I doubt he knows what that is. Probably thinks it’s forcing himself onto someone with a limp dick.
And also to everything else.
Thanks for the link
