I've seen this point made pretty often and I'm having a hard time understanding how Biden is responsible for the wars in Ukraine and the middle east during his presidency. Obviously he's responsible for how he responds but I'm not sure why is it his fault if a war was started in another country. Could someone with more political knowledge than me explain this? Thank you
Trump is two things that I will point out here. Trump is good with people, he can talk to the average person like he is one. Trump is also very very true to his word.
Trump is so good with people you can tell when he's blowing smoke, and when he really means what he's saying. You have to hear and see him speak to pick up on all the cues, but he makes it very obvious, and his full speeches of everything he puts out there for his constituents to see and hear. (The bluster just makes people feel good, they know it's bluster and they still like it...)
But so far, he's kept every single word. He is nothing if not someone who has shown that he's as loyal to the American people as they are to him. He is a man of his word when he means something he says.
As others in this thread have pointed out, peace through strength is literally the only thing that works with some people, and perhaps the only thing that ever will work with some nations.
But part of peace through strength is knowing when you have to keep your word, and when you have to bluff. And your enemies have to think you would follow through on whatever threat you just made when the stakes are highest, because that's the threat you really
don't want to follow through on.
So when the stakes are low is when you always follow through, and follow through hard. That way when the stakes are highest, all you have to make is the threat to win the battle.
And Trump is actually really good at peace through strength.
He's good at it because he's so good with people that when he's making world stage type of threats with, for instance North Korea, you really can't tell if he's bluffing or if he really means it. But you do know that he's a man of his word.
It leaves that niggling doubt that is a little scary. But It's a fear that stops men like Putin from going too far, so it's a necessary quality to have in any leader, especially if you're going to have any influence at all on the world stage.
