As much as you and I are on the same page, about America not being the greatest country in the world, we will have to agree to disagree. America is going through a rough patch now because of the Cockwomble in the WH but America better days are ahead. Have seen America down before and she always rise up to the top of the cream. Morning in America starts Jan 20, 2021.

wirinet:
Ok, let's agree to disagree.

Mind you, I am not even disputing the fact that USA was/is great, I am just saying that it's a bit exaggerated. Just like the abilities of US soldiers are exaggerated like Rambo, their cops are exaggerated like Jack Bauer and the abilities of Trump are exaggerated like the apprentice.

To me Russian soldiers are more resilient than US soldiers as evidenced by the Napoleon war and WW2. Russia alone took the major brunt of Hitler's military machine. British Police are more professionally trained than US cops. It will be difficult for a TV reality star who has no political or work experience to become prime minister of Britain.

Robert E Lee High School in Virginia is to be changed to John Lewis High School. Wow, the Nazis and Klans and their a@s lickers living below poverty level on Nairaland won't like that. Who cares about them anyway. Trying to eat two decent meals a day is a struggle for them anyway. Meanwhile, in a little over 100 days, we will take our country back from the forces of Hate and Bigotry.

Lol. Your image is on point.

All the racists in the Democrat party have moved to the republican party, and the Liberals in the republican have moved to the democrats.

Right and left have interchanged along time ago.
If MLK was alive, he would be a democrat just like John Lewis.

The left demonises anything it does not like.
What year did democrats become republicans ?
Any one politician who switched between 1964 till say 1990. From a democrat to a republican that is.

wirinet:
Donald Trump was a democrat in 2001 but switched to Republican in 2009.

Lies and more lies. You never tire.
What was he doing at the Republican 1988 convention? Joking about running
Whats up with democrats and lying?

And here is is with Oprah Winfrey in 1988 . teasing about running.

I expect an unqualified admission from you that you either didn't know OR you were lying .

To think of it, Is there any democrat in 1964 during the passage of the civil human rights act change parties to republican party?
Include Robert Byrd, Hillary Clinton mentoir.

In 1987, the year his famed book The Art of the Deal was released, Trump registered as a Republican in New York, according to Politifact. The following year, he even floated the idea of running for the party's presidential nomination. Yet, despite his stated allegiance to the GOP, Trump donated more money to Democrats than Republicans between 1989 and 2009.


Further demonstrating his political promiscuity, Trump turned his back on both major parties in 1989 by registering as an independent. In 2000, he mounted his first actual run for president, as a candidate for the Reform Party. Despite an early withdrawal from the contest, he won the party's primary in California.

Trump's allegiance switched again in 2001, when he registered as a Democrat. Speaking in 2004, Trump shed some light on his rationale.

"In many cases, I probably identify more as Democrat," Trump said in an interview with CNN. "It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans. Now, it shouldn't be that way. But if you go back, I mean it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats....

The first state of Trump Induced dementia is denial. Trump's party affiliations changed like an ashewo on date drugs.

Here is some brief history of his party affiliations;

You sentences are your "Personal" opinion. It doesn't change or altar where America stands.

Since you started comparing Germany and Iceland with America, I knew you had personal hate for Americans.

You saying America soldier's, and cops are exergerated is a joke. Comparing Russian with US army is the height of your comedy.

With the way you going, and I am certain you will still get to say Africa is better than the US cos you just detest the country. May be out of envy, but it won't change our position, capabilities and potentials.

wirinet:
Same way your Sentences are your personal opinions and biases.


When and where did I start comparing Germany and Iceland with America? You must have mixed up with someone else.


Yes. I stand by my personal opinion that US Police are not as well trained as their European counterparts. The US army also rely so much on technology and is lagging behind British soldiers in terms of infantry soldiers and close combat fighting.

During WW2 the Russian Military alone took on the bulk Hitler's forces along with the axis forces of Italy, Romania and Finland, numbering over 3.8 million military personnel, 3500 tanks, 600,000 military vehicles, etc, And in the end came out victorious.
Now contrast that to the western front. How many German troops were defending the western front when US, Britain, and all the Allied nations launched their D-day attack at Normandy? How many soldiers were defending France in 1944? The total number was less than 500,000 troops. The most highly trained soldiers and officers were in the eastern front.

If Stalin had not defeated and degraded the German war machine, the US and it's allies would never have stood a chance against Hitler.
Please Google Operation Barbarossa



I have never doubted the capabilities, the potentials and greatness of the US, I am only saying they are exaggerated. Even Trump and his MAGA (Make America Great Again ) crew concur. That's is why Americans elected Trump - to Make America Great Again .

Where are all the trump fans on this thread?

The announcement comes amid rising tensions between the U.S. and China, which is increasingly competing for influence in a region historically linked to American foreign policy. Latin America is currently the region hardest hit by the coronavirus, with Brazil, Mexico and Peru among the world’s top 10 countries by total Covid-related deaths.

In a virtual gathering, Wang told his Latin American counterparts a vaccine against coronavirus developed by his country would have universal access, Mexico’s Foreign Affairs Ministry said in a statement late Wednesday. Wang also presented a list of Chinese projects to fight the disease in the region, according to the statement.

China’s initiative to assist Latin American countries in the fight against the pandemic shows that the Asian giant seeks to distinguish itself from the U.S. and President Donald Trump’s approach.

“While Trump’s priority has been getting privileged access to vaccines without leading any global effort against the pandemic, China is taking the opportunity to show it cares about other countries“, he said. “It wants to show that its ascension will bring advantages and benefits to others.”

Top diplomats from Argentina, Barbados, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, Trinidad and Tobago and Uruguay participated in the meeting, in addition to Mexico’s Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard and China’s Wang, according to the statement.

While Trump is busy creating enemies around the world and alienating the USA, China is busy strengthening it's influence all over the world.

Right in US's backyard:

Well said.
Maybe America was once the greatest nation, especially when it introduced democracy to the world.

AbdulSleeky:
Like how everyone was laughing at your president at the G7?

Russia alone took the major brunt of Hitler's military machine.

SonofLincoln:
Britain has Boris Johnson who is a light version of Trump. It will be difficult for Britain to have a Black Prime Minister like we had President Obama here.

I think he means they have the biggest mouth.

Americans just have excessive freedom.

SonofLincoln:
The sad and tragic part of the article you posted is that this countries are in the Americas. Imagine China having so much influence in America's backyard. Nothing good will come out of trump's 4 years regime and I am so happy that in a little over 100 days, the monumental failure will be voted out of office in a landslide.
