The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Thats why America will not be trusted again perhaps for more than a generation, to re- earn that Trust.

Sorry to break it to you, but America doesn't care if other countries Trust us or not.

And it doesn't really make any difference anyway. What will they do differently?
They won't trust the USA but will trust China? China????



Its less what he's doing, its who he is, and nobody did not know that, and it will not be accepted as an excuse by any other foreign populatisn.

What does that mean? What does "will not be accepted as an excuse" mean? What will they do differently? What concrete actions will they take other than make speeches and complain?

Hell, Germany kept buying Nordstream gas from RUSSIA, as if they all trusted Russia even though it is the #1 evil country in the world. Oh, maybe they didn't trust Russia at all, but they depended heavily on Russia for a crucial product. So what difference did it make whether they trusted or distrusted Russia?
