    Threats to other countries isn’t noise… It doesn’t seem appropriate to hand wave away threats to other people.

      Feels like they’re trying to overwhelm us with a barrage of shit.

      The Drake v Kendrick rap battle taught us that refuting your opponent point by point leads to failure. You need to hammer your opponent on his weakest point over and over.

      If we focus our efforts on his collapsing of the economy, will we be able to force him to drop the dumb imperialism stuff and focus on defense? I don’t know.
