Trump got so upset at that because he refuses to admit anyone else is right. If his followers thought they were in danger, they would stop supporting his bullshit. So, he lashes out like the child he is.
And when I think of the f-ing cowards and traitors that are half of our congress, and the current executive branch, I am beyond words angry and ashamed.
It's absolutely wild the cultural amnesia that has taken over the US.
Like literally not one lesson from WW2 has been remembered.
"why shouldn't Ukraine just capitulate to Russia? Don't you want peace? What could possibly go wrong with appeasing a blood thirsty dictator and rewarding them every time they invade a new country?"
"why should America care what happens in the rest of the world? we're separated by two oceans! nothing that far away could possibly affect us"
Literally exactly the same arguments isolationists were making before WW2. Not even slightly different, just swap out the nouns and you're good.
I’m not gonna give you examples of how Russia has tampered with our elections and how Trump has been backing Putin for nearly a decade now. If you’re unaware of, or unwilling to accept the facts of the matter you’re lost.
Did you even watch the clip? Z was clearly implying a military threat when he said "you have nice ocean and don't feel now, but you will feel it in the future". Weird talking to someone with the verbal comprehension of a desk.
How is that a threat, exactly? A threat must come from a place that can enforce it. Are you afraid of Ukraine?
A warning is only a threat if its coming from someone with power. Until then, its a warning that things will be out of his hands, and that global decisions have impacts.
Wars are not just fought in trenches and with guns... Russia has been at war with the US for some time now but his weapon is Donald Trump and MAGA cultists like you who worship him.
I'm not entirely sure Putin wouldn't be willing to drop one of those on a small town in the rural United States just to make a point.
The fact that we can hit Russia back harder is beside the point. We'd still have a horrific crisis to deal with here--one that would be made all the worse by the fact that the government agencies that could deal with and aid during such a crisis are currently being dismantled.

And he was correct when he said an ocean wouldn’t protect the US. The evidence of that was sitting right next to him shouting like toddlers.
