Trump voters want him to tell the United Nations: America comes first

America First: Supporters want President Donald Trump to tell UN to solve its own problems | McClatchy Washington Bureau


even at the UNITED NATIONS...... where all nations matter ........the Trumpians continue to be a selfish lot.

and want to dictate the terms ........

America has always been "me " oriented.......even when it "helps" it is conditional.. But this is a whole new level .

Perhaps it is the US that needs to be isolated .......as that is what it seems to want... The message the current regime is giving the world is we don't want to be part of you.........UNLESS we are the "deal maker" with the self centered america first " principle behind each deal.

America first is the confession of a nation that it cares little for anyone else.

Stock market at record high this past week because Mrs. Clinton is not POTUS.

Really? And you have evidence of that ridiculous statement? The stock market doesn't really care who is president which is why it almost tripled under Obama.

Kind of a strange speech by Donald Trump at the UN today. I detected two strands. The authentic Trump i thought was the one who extolled the Nation State; national sovereignty and an end to America's role as global policeman; proponent of Global Free Market Capitalism; imposer of American culture and values on 'oppressed' states. Replaced with a policy agenda in support of reestablishment of borders with respect to people, product, culture, political systems and the primacy of national sovereignty.

The other was the one railing against rogue states who do not submit to American standards of international 'citizenship'. Of equating Socialism (a word so overworked that it has lost all definition) with tyranny and economic dissolution. Of reasserting America's hemispheric political supervision of the Americas.

It seems aimed at two different audiences. The first to his nationalist base. The second to the Reaganite NeoCons of the Republican Establishment. I know the latter's principles of Free Trade, Open Borders, Cultural Relativism, anti-Federalism are irreconcilable with the former in the long term. Economic Nationalism will require Nationalist, Populist, Dirigiste and Progressive policies of an active and engaged Federal Government. This is an anathema to the NeoCons. They consider that 'Socialism'.

I'm waiting for this to break apart in the near to medium term future. And the Trump Administration to show its real colours, for better or worse.

Listening to Trumps UN speech today reinforced my opinion of the character of this turd blossom. I cannot remember hearing such a load of exceptionalist drivel ever, that bag of crap had no respect for the intelligence of his audiance whatever, he is in fact everything hated about the USA, there was not one second of reality everything he said was baldfaced lies so obvious to anyone who listened and was not American. The American people are well and truely fukked, they will go to one last great war. If the American people do not find a way to live in peace with the rest a the world they and thier puppets will face the combined militarys of the world. All my life I have heard everyday about the streets paved with gold and the milk and honey freely flowing in that very same evil corrupt country and every bit of that flow of wealth has been plundered from the worlds poor small countries. I would go to war against them to save my children and grandchildren from having to live listening to American bullshjt. The world will be a finer place without them.
