    We kind of chose to be in charge, so we could fix problems. Abandoning the job you volunteered for halfway thru your shift without telling anyone does prove a point… That Republicans are irresponsible, dickless, assholes.

      Yeah, but you have other nations claiming to have the rights for some international leadership who aren’t doing anything either. Why aren’t China or the EU stepping in to help?

      It is horrible that the USA isn’t helping, but a lot of other nations also aren’t helping.

        I can’t speak to Europe, but for China, this throws a spotlight on the lack of US effectiveness and leadership and erodes our soft power. Which is a free method for them to gain soft power. Europe IS having their own increase in isolationism which is likely why they’re not moving on the world stage.

          Yeah, but while China wants to state that their a global leader, a lot of their foreign policy is based on selling internationally the industrial output they overbuilt.
