    Yea… as if they don’t enjoy their strategic advantage to have bases and drone relays in all their “befriended” countries. Their global power relies in the ability to project military power in a fast manner.

    Good luck doing that without strategic bases and pre distributed resources and local enablers.

      This is not about the geostrategic interests of the US. Where do you think these ideas come from?

        I don’t think they come from where you think, it is just plain stupidity from people thinking that US could go better alone.

          And just out of plain stupidity they’ve decided to reject the overwhelming consensus of US foreign policy for decades? Colour me sceptical. Where do the stupid people get those ideas from?

            Obviously. They are stupid, they cannot understand, or don’t care about, the consequences of their actions.

            These ideas were always there, they think they are special. It is just that this time they elected the worst people possible.
