If we take that hat off and watch misery unfold the world will rightly condemn us for doing nothing. -Just as they're doing now-....we're balking at refugees, ffs, lol. Our presidential election seems to be about it, somehow...when you'd think that both sides would have every reason to crow about accepting more refugees...because it;s the american thing to do, and we're a great god-damned country.
Meh. I don't mind the argument over whether we should take the refugees or not. That's why we have elections. I'm a fan of "fuck 'em, we've got our own problems." But when Hillary's elected, and they come over, that's fine.
But I don't think what the rest of the world thinks should matter. It isn't my impression that the rest of the world is in a habit of doing favors for the US at their own expense. Seems like they are willing to let the US pay them to be friends.
I think that's why Trump keeps hanging around. People view him, rightly or wrongly, as the money manager telling the Rap Artist he can't keep spending all that money on his crew or he's going to go broke.
