He’s super fucking us over for any and all future treaties as well, because how could anyone trust us to abide by them after this?

Arguably, I wouldn't put this one entirely on Trump. The world knew this was coming. Ever since the Senate Republicans wrote that open letter to Iran during the negotiations for the Iran deal, and during the 2016 election when every Republican candidate said they would tear it up "on day one", everybody had to know other treaties/agreements would be on the chopping block.
You used to be able to trust that if an international deal was made by one party, the other would at least have a very good reason to back out of it, because they still understood the value of the US's credibility. Now? Apparently Republicans believe "triggering the libs" or "pissing off Europe" constitutes a good reason.

Yeah, no offense intended against the majority of Americans but your government can't be trusted for shit on the international stage. You may have someone sensible for 4-8 years but then you have 4-8 years of someone willing to completely burn it down. And we can't base our plans off that really, not long term.

Sad as it is, Russia and China are much more stable and dependable.

It was particularly hilarious watching the confusion in r/conservative over the Sidney Powell stuff.
They had literally days before been posting a load of stuff about how she was a top notch lawyer and wouldn't be saying the things she was if there wasn't evidence to support it. They were waiting with baited breath for the kraken she had promised (having not learned any of the prior lessons from stuff like the Hunter Biden laptop bullshit etc.).
Was so fucking funny seeing them try to piece it all together and find some explanation in which they weren't idiots being conned.

The best one I have heard, is that - because she is no longer a part of the Trump Legal Team (according to them, she never was a member in the first place) - she can now charge people with treason.
No, I don't know how that makes any sense either....

No, I don't know how that makes any sense either.... Aha. I have dug a bit deeper. The reason why Sydney Powell can charge Democrats with treason is; - She represents Michael Flynn. - Michael Flynn is military. - Therefore Sydney Powell is a "military lawyer". - Therefore she can charge Democrats with treason. No, it still doesn't make any sense, but there you have it.

Do you guys know of anybody, who has collected and archived the legal paperwork for all the Trump Legal Team's failed efforts?
