Trump gives Qatar the right to have an airforce base in Idaho.

I know that sounds insane but this is Pete and Donald we're talking about. Your thoughts?

Did you even read anything about this? It is a training facility co-located on a US base, as is already in place for the Singaporean Air Force. It is NOT a Qatari owned separate base. Further .. this started being looked at under Biden per the CNN article.

My thoughts ? Intentionally misleading posts like this are absolute b.s. and you are ~ POS for doing it.

@BrandNewMan No I didn't read that. The post on CBC is a lot different than what I read. I first saw this on TikTok and googled it.

@BrandNewMan still, stopping this is the kind of stuff is what Trump campaigned on.

@Pitchblue But conveniently didn't post the source .. just your manipulated twist on it to make it out to be something else.

@trollslayer He pushed for UN members to pay more for their own defense and costs for training, etc. Dont recall him campaigning to stop helping train our allies otherwise. Have you got anything to back that up ? Or .. is it or just more BS for the spreader?

@BrandNewMan not specifically this issue - but they took major issues with saudis leasing us land to grow crops, to taiwanese semiconductor plants. Thats that whole “america first “ message. I’d be willing to bet they complained about this one too when Biden was pres.

@trollslayer Well of course you would .. libs must be clairvoyant with all the doomsday things you claim to know "they are gonna do" with nothing to back it up.

Expecting the rest of the world to step up and help carry more of their own weight .. so we can better deal with our stuff.. is just holding them accountable. Seeing them respond like a teenager being taken to account by their parent is kinda proof of why its needed.
