This U.S. administration would've lost World War II, if they'd even bothered to fight it. More likely, they would have cut deals with all the dictators to steal everyone's natural resources.

Europe/Ukraine/COTW... (for now) the USA is not your partner. Time to fully wake up and take the gloves off. You got this!!

The Young Republicans would have met with the German 'Junge Union' (CDU/CSU) in the past. The fact that they now meet with the far right AFD (Alternative Fuer Deutschland) tells you all you need to know about the new Status Quo in the US.
The New York Young Republicans chapter plans to host far-right German leader after ‘I love Hitler’ chat. Why, you may ask? Well, because they’re fucking Nazis themselves.
