Some power/influence arises purely from military might. I don't dispute that our military isnt going away overnight. But the more valuable type of power/influence is what arises from having other countries trust that the US will do the right thing. Partnerships are a two way street, and we're proving to the world we will fuck over each and every country who doesn't massage trumps anus.
The type of influence that comes from being a trusted partner is gone. The president of the US is proudly retweeting (or re-truthing whatever the fuck you call his site) videos bragging that he is crashing global markets ON PURPOSE, just so that we can refinance our own debt. Its a stupid fucking plan to begin with, but you sure as fuck shouldn't be bragging about it. And thats not even mentioning the stupidity of threatening to take over our own allies (Canada & Greenland/Denmark). Its fucking lunacy. If you think our power and influence are actually growing right now, you must be pumped so full of Trump's jizz that its penetrating your brain tissue.
Wait.....are you Laura Loomer?
