In response to Re: Re Pax Americana Is Over (BeenThere)

So, what will Putin do with his oil money? Give it to the poor in Russia? Ha ha

One could argue that even during the 'cold war', Russia was spending its military budget on defending itself against what it saw as a 'threat', America, rather than increasing its 'military might' in order to invade, or inflict its will, on countries that are incapable of defending themselves against such a power.

Like Putin or hate him, I personally think that the guys has 'balls', he's resolute, (yet not beyond embracing compromise or reason when necessary), and in general, he's not exactly a bad bloke.

The fact that Trump and Putin have secured a $5Billion oil deal simply HAS to make many 'everyday common working men' sleep a tad more soundly in their beds.

As I see it, the biggest 'problem' with Trump is that he's not predictable. Certainly not as predictable as Hilary would have been.

It's his unpredictability that's causing unrest, nothing else.
