Donald Trump is a Globalist

Monday, September 01, 2025

Joshua Keating: For all his America First rhetoric and vilification of "globalists," Trump clearly sees himself as a global leader who plays an indispensable role on the world stage and is responsible for solving other countries' problems -- not only America's.

As Trump recently told The Atlantic, during the first term he was just running the country. In his second, as he sees it, "I run the country and the world."

Well, considering how many problems he seems to be creating here in America, compared to how many problems he has actually solved ...

Donald Trump is an empty man who guesses as to what it's like to be human, fails at that most of the time, and whose default behavior is to do and say anything that creates an advantage for himself.

He is insane in the most basic way of understanding what insanity is. He has no morals. Moral insanity is the old name for sociopathy.

You're a duplicate poster.

Or a zombie poster.

Or someone who changes handles whenever you get burned.

Choose one. I'll go with it.

Every president we've had in the last 100 years was a globalist.

#7 how many of them ran on not being a globalist or, worse, being anti-globalism to help those affected by it?

You were lied to and you happily went along. Only question remaining is whether it's because you're stupid or just embarrassed by your policy preference you preferred to lie about it.

To one degree or another.....yes.

They attack foreign policy when campaigning then once in office.....get real and support the same efforts they previously criticized.

When you criticize the idiots you voted for you can have a turn at bitching about what soup Trump chooses with his meal on Tuesdays.

I do all the time you stupid pile of s^*%.

And your attempt to downplay Trump lying about what he fundamentally is is noted. You do realize it's a defensive response from your subconscious, right?

BS, but you better get busy because your party needs to hear from you. 19% approval isn't looking very good for you in 2026 and 2028.

They've entered the "lob every insult at Trump" stage. No matter how utterly ridiculous. He's a 'communist' and a 'globalist', of which he's obviously neither, are both actual headlines posted here

Trump rapes 13yo girls, and that's what you like about him.

I know this is cheap entertainment for you right now, but it wont win elections. This is why the DNC is out of the game for years at this point. They tried to prosecute their way to a win last year, attempting to install a clown at the first woman President.
