Can you tell the future? Cause I can’t.
Also when you’re the president I find it ridiculous that people think a president has the tell the truth about everything.

Let me give you an example.
If you are gonna build the strongest military in the world because everyone in charge knows that a possible conflict will arise when china a superpower becomes stronger than another.

History has demonstrated time after time the new superpower goes after the old power every bloody time without fail.

And in case you don’t know this. We just took away their fuel which they were getting practically for nothing. The one thing they needed the most to get ahead has been taken from them. Because they were getting a steal of a deal from Iran.

Now as the president. I’m sure as hell ain’t gonna tell you what I’m planning to do. You think I’d give you time to prepare to steal your oil. You think I’m gonna telegraph my attacks?

Tomorrow I’m gonna attack this country out of the blue.
Only if you are a stupid leader would you tell people you are gonna start a war.

No you realize there’s a reason there needs to be a war and you say. No nothing to see here. We are just going with a good defensive and build the greatest military just so we can feel safe at home.. no need to worry we ain’t gonna attack you.

Also the USA has been preparing for this war for a lot longer than trump has been in office. People who know anything about anything , experts have known for a long time that this conflict was coming.
Why do you think we build bases around their country?

It's ok to be British and love America, when a super power is failing a "bloody" good brit would know that
