Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles. Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
That's all the rules!

He still might. He's already destroyed the system of alliances that you were using to prop yourselves up; you just haven't felt the full consequences of that yet.
Who's you? I'm Canadian
You don't seem to understand the mechanics of power. Consequences tend to flow along the same lines that power does, either upward and downward, at a slant that favors one side over another, or across as equals.
Another word for alliance is partnership. If there are consequences, as you seem to be wanting to imply, they will be felt equally, or less so by the more dominant partner.
As an American I am tired of "alliances" that are really just parasitical, or created so that some few individual kingmakers benefit from the power-brokering while millions pay the bill. Israel is one. Let 'em all fall. The ones that are worthy to both sides will remain or be realigned, such as those with Ukraine: helping Ukraine helps the entire world. Other "alliances" far less so.
And it's hard to believe these already doomed "alliances" are best kept alive while in the same breath people talk about "consequences" while deliberately not naming the specific alliances in question. A specific alliance cannot be measured by any other.
Or, to put it another way, I'm in favor of keeping NATO, but if you want to exclude the US and create a new NATO (with blackjack and hookers!) no one is stopping you, and the entire world would also benefit.
Get ready for the world order realignment, because it is upon us. The US will not be on top, nor should we be.
