The wannabe president-businessman Trump announced yesterday that he is now pulling out of nuclear arms treaty.
Trump's reasoning for that - "Russia has violated the agreement. They've been violating it for many years." In other words - I'm not doing anything that others are not doing I'm just doing it better. At least in his own mind. That's the behavior of an eight-year-old bully as he is. So it shouldn't really come as a surprise to anyone, but that doesn't make it right either.
He added that "And I don't know why President Obama didn't negotiate or pull out. And we're not going to let them violate a nuclear agreement and go out and do weapons and we're not allowed to. We're the ones that have stayed in the agreement and we've honored the agreement. But Russia has not, unfortunately, honored the agreement. So we're going to terminate the agreement. We're gonna pull out."
Nobody is really happy with his yet another stupid action. Not Russia, not Europe, not anyone else sane enough.
Of course, Trump didn't stop there. "Unless Russia comes to us and China comes to us and they all come to us and say, 'Let's really get smart and let's none of us develop those weapons.' But if Russia's doing it and if China's doing it and we're adhering to the agreement, that's unacceptable," Trump added.
Russian senator Alexey Pushkov called Trump's decision a "massive blow to the entire system of strategic stability in the world."
In the past Trump pulled out of Paris Climate agreement, he pulled out of the Iran deal, he has pretty much pulled out from anything but Stormy Daniels.
One thing is sure now - the next real president of The United States can't really do anything new during his first term - the first things that will have to be done, preferably during the first 100 days, is try to fix everything Trump has broken, and only then can move on to new things.
