Trump MAGAThread XI: Button, Button, Who's Got The Button?

[Eibenland]

"We need to work with Japan to get rid of something their people want"

The US has been pushing Japan to get rid of Article 9 since the beginning of the Cold War, and countless Japanese PMs have been trying to get rid of it. However, it is very popular in Japan.

I believe that nations have a right to protect themselves. The U.S. has no time or money for the squabbles of Japan. Repeal and replace Article 9.

Japan has Self-Defense Forces to protect itself.

[Arumdaum]

yeah lmao random westerner on the internet clearly knows more than experts, both korean and western, who've literally been living and studying this their whole lives B)

Based on what you're saying, you know literally nothing about Korea. Perhaps you're the one devoid of facts and realism?

What I'm saying is immediate reunification is a bad idea, and that it would require a lot more info planning and communication before laying the groundwork. And the sources you provide show support for immediate reunification is about 15%, similar percent don't want reunification. while more then half want to proceed cautiously.

No one is arguing for immediate reunification. No realistic plans for reunification feature immediate reunification. They all feature the gradual meshing of North and South over a long period of time in a way that tries to maximize stability and success. Immediate reunification is just something those with high passions but little knowledge of the situation want.

Well, it seems we're in at least partial agreement, yet we were still arguing.

This is how far the Trump thread has taken us huh?

[Arlenton]

America gets greater with every thread!

The SDF is not sufficient for Japan's defense. If it was, we wouldn't even be discussing what to do with N. Korea because it would have been crushed by the might of the Imperial Japanese Army. Also, it was created solely to defend Japan from the Soviets until American troops can arrive in the event of a Soviet Invasion.

Only if one has a very warped sense of what constitutes "better".

[The Derpy Democratic Republic Of Herp]

Trump approval rating slightly improving.

Still more then half the nation hates him though.

America gets greater with every thread!

Not really.

When "greatness" is measured by volume of liberal salt mined, it's easy to see it as such.

[Valrifell]

We have to go back!

I kinda just want America to be meh.

Under Trump, the salt industry has exponentially grown.

[Dahon]

The last 10 pages of the last thread were so lit, I'm glad that shit hit the post limit before it went nuclear.

Also,

America gets greater with every thread!

Pinoy here.

All I'd have to say from my side of the pond is -- no, it bloody does fucking not.

[Camicon]

Ten threads filled in a year. So we're looking at another thirty if Trump finishes out this term.

I give Trump another fifteen threads, at most.

When he finishes. Nothing will boot him out short of death, which I'd like to avoid

House Un-American Committee.

I mean, when you meme things from sixty-something years ago bad enough...

[Salandriagado]

Ten threads filled in a year. So we're looking at another thirty if Trump finishes out this term.

The thread rates have slowed down somewhat: the durations (in days) have been 31, 35, 17, 33, 55, 53, 42, 31, 55, 63, respectively (over slightly more than a year: that's November 2016-January 2018). That third thread was fast.

[Collatis]

We have to go back!

Back to the future?

Well, if someone else is president in the future, it might be a good idea.

You're right, don't joke, Trump might take i as advice.

It was the inauguration thread.

Hasn't some big name unironically called for a new HUAC in the last year?

That's the best news I've heard all year.
