The failing state of America is trying to cling onto global power by bossing the world around, demanding no one trade with Iran and Venezeula because their chickenhawks in power say so. Internet warrior and President Donald J. Drumph spends all day long going against everything he said during his campaign, meddling in other countries affairs while his own border is wide open, entire states are going to ruin, unemployment is through the roof and the gap between the rich and poor gets worse every year. Truely he has been a pressure release valve for anti establishment sentiment and was controlled opposition from day one.
>“The U.S. has no right to tell other countries who they can or can’t trade with.” Yeah we do. Bretton Woods. We control the trade routes... In a real sense, we ARE all the trade routes.

>“The U.S. has no right to tell other countries who they can or can’t trade with.” Who is this fuckwit? Of course every country has the right to do business with anybody they want. They just can't also choose to do business with the US. Not having one of many many choices is not a denial of a "right" If you were from a free country, you'd know that.

Everyone was happy when America decided one day to be World Police. What changed?

Yes, and the US is demanding other countries stop trading with Iran 'or else'. Ron Paul considers this to be an act of war given the massive problems it's causing.

What gave you that idea? Nobody had a say in the matter. America just used two world wars to propel itself into that role, nobody asked for it. I would have preferred European powers to have remained in that role. At least they weren't plagued by silly ideas of nation above race, nation of immigrants, and ensuring self determination for poor brown people around the world.

>Trump himself used to complain about just this issue. Bashing the official unemployment stat was one of his bigger campaign trail themes. Back in June 2015, he made this remark about the official unemployment rate (which was then 5.5%): “Our labor participation rate was the worst since 1978…. Our real unemployment is anywhere from 18 to 20%. Don’t believe the 5.6. Don’t believe it. That’s right. A lot of people out there can’t get jobs.” And in May 2016: ”You hear a 5% unemployment rate. It’s such a phony number. That number was put in for presidents and for politicians so that they look good to the people.” A month after his victory in the US presidential elections, he was still sticking to his guns: “The unemployment number, as you know, is totally fiction.”
The way that the US Govt comes up with unemployment figures has been stupid for a long time, using the numbers that it'd use in the 70s it's over 20%. Trump has since started using the fake numbers that he used to complain about.

Yes, the US has that right. Other nations don’t have to obey, but this means the US can cut off gibs, intelligence sharing, and withdraw our protection.

>Gibs Trade isn't 'gibs'.
You're threatening every country on Earth to stop trading with Iran. Russia and China aren't listening either so you're only hurting all your so called 'allies'. It's economic warfare. Ron Paul is right, countries have gone to war over much less.
Jason Ward
America has no allies. Only competitors and vassals.
When we tell our vassals to jump they yell HOW HIGH SIR!
Charles Hill
You are a vassal state yourself though so you should actually be against such things.
Cooper Ramirez
It's only a privilege when you can revoke it It's a right when you have to fight for it So the U.S. has the right to tell other countries who they can or can't trade with, and that's a privilege they are given. They want a right to say otherwise, they better be ready to fight for it

Exactly. Like telling a girl you don't want her going out like a hoe if she's going to be with you. She can still be a hoe of course, but you're free to choose not to talk to her again if she does. >"but you're being controlling waaaahhh" >not being a cuck
You know why Ventura is on RT? Because he got blacklisted from the US's fake news media because of Chris Kyle's bullshit story. Also got his conspiracy show cancelled, this was shortly after he released a book about JFK.
