Make America Great Again: Initiative 1 - Stop being a planetary bully and end wars.

To keep his campaign promise to stop wars, Trump needs to transform America from a rouge hegemon to a benevolent super power. Below is the action plan.

1. Withdraw the US from NATO and end involvement in the Ukraine war.
2. Release frozen Russian sovereign assets held by the US.
3. Shutdown all US foreign military bases worldwide and withdraw assets and troops.
4. Withdraw all US vetoes on UN resolutions on Gaza.
5. End blockade on Cuba and lift US sanctions on all countries.
6. Re-affirm the "One China" policy with Beijing and cease direct US/Taiwan relationship.
7. Stop all defense spending and shutdown the military/industrial complex.

You could be right. No.3 would uproot a large part of Deep State: the military industrial complex. Those generals are gods unto themselves. US taxpayers are funding their lifestyle of powerful warlords who can fly to anywhere in the world in military airplanes in grand style much better than commercial first class. And they have minions carrying their bags and saluting them at every turn. Talk about a classless society. The US military has Brahmin culture that diminishes India's caste system. I know. My grandfather was a colonel in the US Army. He would take me to Sunday lunches at the army base. Officers only. Slavery is alive and well. I can still remember the black waiter in white gloves carving prime ribs and serving it me. Trump thought that those generals would regard him as Commander-in-Chief. No way. Trump was a low caste dalit in their eyes.

@sree251 The generals aren't the ones in charge, it's the contractors. Those guys are huge contributors, and their lackeys in Congress will never allow U.S. overseas bases to close. I expect military funding to increase under Trump.

4. Trump ran on a pro-Israel platform, and his Evangelical supporters are very pro-Israel, so there won't be any change in the U.S. veto of any anti-Israel UN resolutions. Trump will do the opposite and greenlight anything Bibi wants. If you think things were bad for the Palestinians up to now, you haven't seen anything yet.

5. The Cuban blockade will continue with the goal of collapsing their government. The U.S. can then launch a "humanitarian" initiative that will end with the installation of a pro-U.S. dictator similar to Batista, followed by opening the island to resort development.

6. Taiwan is crucial to limiting Chinese incursions into the Pacific, as well as supplying computer chips we require. We won't see the effects of Biden's CHIPS Act until a few years into Trump's term, at which point he will take credit and possibly allow China to annex Taiwan after that.

7. Hilarious. The only portion of the federal budget the Republicans like is the military.

The Palestinians voted to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. They support terrorism against Jewish women and children. What is your problem with the Jews, Adolf?

Hey, STUPID. Barak Saddam Hussein already eased sanctions against Cuba.

And the only portion of the federal budget you goose stepping DemoNazis like is the WELFARE STATE, which is now over SEVENTY PERCENT, and the reason for us having to borrow TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
