Defying critics, Trump says U.S. might abandon allies attacked by Russia or North Korea

Donald Trump called Hillary Clinton “dumb” on Friday for saying the United States should defend allies under military attack by Russia or North Korea even if they have failed to pay in full for U.S. protection.

The Republican presidential nominee renewed his threat to abandon U.S. allies in Europe and Japan, saying, “You always have to be prepared to walk.”

So much for that pivot and so called intervention ! He's off his meds Keep talking idiot

[longship]

2. OMFG! Really he said that?

Next we'll be hearing him out of the corner of a padded room saying, "Plba-Plba-Plba-Plba-Plba" over and over again.

"Come on Donnie. We have a nice comfortable jacket for you to wear. We're going to a really nice place where you can be nicely comfortable and safe..."

"Load him up, guys!"

3. "Why would they ever pay?"

A wonderful bit of projection there. He welches all the time.

4. So, it's a case where money talks

5. He ran his businesses like a mobster.

Screwing people out of the money he owed them and making them take 30 %. He probably thought John Gotti was a "very nice guy."

6. he's insane. there is no other reason for this kind of behavior. it's totally out of the norm.

7. Yep, that's about the gist of it...

8. Has he threatened to evict the UN yet?

After all, it occupies some very prime real estate in Manhattan. And if memory serves me correctly, we lent them the funds for their recent major modernization program interest-free. (When that began, Trump announced that he should be put in charge of it because anyone else was going to bungle it!)

9. I'm suggesting that everyone read Isenberg's

White Trash: The 400 Year Untold History of Class in America. The type of Europeans who came to America are the same type that were sent to Australia. They were not the best and the brightest.

The book is referenced in this awesome Atlantic article on the crisis of the white poor, the original underclass. This is why we have mentally disturbed unqualified incompetent ignorant Trump as the GOP presidential nominee

This explains why the GOP controlled Congress refused to pass President Obama's American Jobs Act in 2011. The GOP depends on this group to keep them in office. Enacting PBO's jobs bill would've meant the loss of this voting bloc.

I know it's evil and mean and shows the worse disregard for human life. I'm voting for Hillary and a Blue Congress so we can take care of these folks too.
