Accepting Defeat?

Open Thread Image.jpg

In the first clip below the fold, Pepe discusses a French intellectual's new book. The writer suggest Trump's job in the first two years will be to help America (NATOstan) accept that Russia defeated us in Ukraine. Somehow I can't see Trump selling that notion. This week Alex Krainer asks (below) 'will the US continue it's bullying posture or act like a polite guest at the world table of equal nations?' I simply don't see that happening given US arrogance and false sense of superiority. In fact it seems just the opposite in the new found neo-colonial attitude of Trump to acquire Panama, Greenland, Canada, and the "Gulf of America". My guess is he will first target Venezuela and Nicaragua because their leadership continues to serve their peoples needs and not US corporate interests. All that and much more below the fold.
