Bone spurs say what?

Friendly reminder that when France was getting demolished by Germany and the UK was desperately extracting the BEF from Dunkirk, preparing itself for the Battle of Britain, the US was literally drinking booze and blocking oil shipments from going into Japan. Moreover,many influential people in the US had a kink for Adolf and the Third Reich.
The only US territory that got hit by the war were the US islands on the Pacific, meaning that no one that lived in cities like New York,Los Angeles, Washington etc. ever saw the war. Meanwhile, every single city in Europe got hit by the war.
The day we’ll acknowledge a lesson in dignity by the United States is the day the Earth starts spinning backwards

>(Trump) said the U.S. should do more to acknowledge its own leading role in winning.
Because 80 years of self-aggradizing wasn’t enough. š

I loathe this man for a myriad of reasons, but the one thing I will never forgive him for is forcing me to defend France twice in the space of 4 months so far.

Yes, hopefully Macron (and Merz) will finally stop trying to suck up to him.

“But I think we did a little more to win the war than France did”?
“We”?
Was he there?

Maybe France should remind Trump on their next Independence Day of what the French accomplished for the USA?
Not that it would have any āteachingā effect on Trump, it would just be funny to see how he reacts to the fact that the war of independence would have gone another way without themā¦

during WW2 the Soviets did most of the fighting while their industrial base was destroyed by the German invasion,also the Chinese fought the bulk of the Japanese Army . America’s greatest contribution was its industrial base who worked uninterrupted behind the the safety of the Pacific and the Atlantic

I’m all for bashing France it’s in my blood but fuck you Orange man what France did during WW2 was incredible they sacrificed so many life’s so Britain was able to retreat to fight another day they had countless resistance movements that did incredible damage and was a source of great intelligence.

Trump is every negative and vile stereotype everyone has ever accused Americans of dialled up to 11 and presented unironically and completely without shame – which in itself is another stereotype.

Did you mean celebrating “the end of the war” ? Because no one in the Europe “celebrate the war”
whyreadthis2035 on
The sacrifice and loss and meaning of WWII canāt be undermined by an enemy. How about just shunning this guy? If we stop giving him a voice we can calm down. Iām not saying forget he exists. America has shown it is no longer a close ally. As an American Iām devastated and doing what I can. But, France, Europe, the world needs to move into a role that works around the US. One that builds a tomorrow with new allies. I wish I could say a majority of Americans want this to be different. But, if that was true, Trump wouldnāt have a second term. Focus on a future. Trumpās not gonna change unless you outbid Qatar. And America is going to have to go through its collapse to learn what it has.

Yes, because if there’s one thing the Americans are famous for, it’s being quiet and understated about their role in winning the Second World War.Ā

You know what. I’m cool with that. This is the natural result of the recreational xenophobia they have been indulging in since decades, left-leaning redditors included.

Of all batshit crazy BS this guys spews out, this is the least surprising of all. We all know he – and a lot of other US citizens – perceive history like this. And even though is is clearly skewed, it is – on a surface level – somewhat true. No hard feelings here.
