A while ago I saw various images trending of these numbers visualized. Would be a great time to share, if anyone has them.

Hmm I wonder why the US just invaded Venezuela 🤔

It's not like Trump specifically mentioned oil or anything

Venezuela looks a lot more attractive with the risk-reward ratio than other countries.

Trump doesn't understand risk-reward ratios. He already thinks he's indestructible and beyond reproach. No, if this stands with no stronger response than strong words he'll hit Greenland before January is over, or Canada, or somewhere, but he's not going to stop.

The unfolding plot is so bad that you'd think M Night Shyamalan and Michael Bay had teamed up to direct it.

And you don't understand Trump if you think this was his idea or that he's truly directing any of this. His dementia is off the cliff, been watching him sundown since 2021-22 or so, my unprofessional opinion of course. But plenty of actual professionals have pointed out the unmistakable symptoms of frontal cortex dementia and the clear markers of Trump's getting worse. Bruce Willis hid away long before he got as bad as Trump.

If it wasn't for his evil advisors, he'd be happy growing fatter, sitting in the Oval Office and grifting away. They're speed running Project 2025 goals until the cult leader can't stand in from of a camera without drooling.

Canada’s geese stands ready.

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 3 points 3 months ago

20 years? Trump doesn't have that kind of patience. Mid January maybe. No nation with resources under their soil should feel safe right now. I am also certain that he's planning on nuking somewhere, he doesn't even know where yet, but I'd bet my shoes it's on his to-do list.

At least when the US finally eats Saudi Arabi it will cap a decades long outstanding justice issue of Saudi Arabia being responsible for 9/11.

[–] favoredponcho@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Venezuela got attacked because they don’t really export much oil. Saudi Arabia does.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Also the Saudis are always dick sucking US presidents.

Kinda seems to go both ways.
