    I just find the way he treats our allies as incredibly dis-respectful and someone who lacks integrity. These countries are our allies for a reason, they share our ideals, virtues, and beliefs. They aren't a foe. They aren't an economic foe. Portraying our allies who share intelligence, allow us to station our military bases, assisted us when out country was attacked on 9/11, and more, and yet Trump wants to act like its all about money while he pockets cash in violation of the emoluments clause.

    Putting the entire Russia insinuations, this is just ignorant and disrespectful. How many soldiers had to die on both the US and our European allies just 80 years ago to stave off the threat of fascism from Nazi Germany. How long have they tolerated allowing us to dictate international policy and helping us collapse corrupt communist countries like the USSR? How much have we mutually traded with Europe, allowing our country to rise to be the richest in the history of the world?

    You are on your own Trump. You want to play economic war with the people who aided and respected us the most, go ahead. When it fails, go cry more about how you were the actual victim instead of the lower-class who is going to have to feel the brunt most from your moves. He wouldn't know, he has not once had to decide whether to feed his family or pay his bills, he has not tasted poverty, and by the way he acts, would never know what it feels like. He merely doesn't give a shit.
