(76,603 posts)He's a political campaign tactician.
He has no more geopoltical expertise than anybody here at DU.
But, we have a lot of folks here a lot smarter than him.
Again, the correct answer is "nothing".

(89 posts)The Obama deal (the JCPOA) was in cooperation with the entire UN Security Council (those with veto votes,) plus Germany and the EU. Donald blew that up nearly a decade ago. It was one of my answers whenever a MAGA would ask "What was so bad about his first term?"

(13,284 posts)He routinely reneges on agreements. When he changes his mind, he just says it was a bad deal and he tears it up.
He is untrustworthy!

A Late Day Tactician?
So many MAGA say "he's playing 4 dimensional chess.. " but his motivations are so transparently craven he wouldn't get through a game of checkers!

If weren't for schooling from Democrats, they would have nothing at all.
President Barack Obama, you deserve full credit, if this becomes the final treaty to end this war.
AND Repukes need to acknowledge that Chump tore up this treaty with Iran in 2018.

(49 posts)I also see Trump as a kind of backhanded as*******. Imagine someone with a high intellect who has held this office. Eisenhower, Nixon, Carter, Clinton. People opposed them but not that many people tried to "PUNK" them in intellectual terms every single day and, with evidence of their own lack of intellect piling up daily, CONTINUED to habitually challenge the ex-President. Obama sometimes in current appearances says something like "Can you IMAGINE if I did that??!!" ...a great applause line and exasperatingly funny. But sometimes you just wonder as Trump blunders into today's situation... us he just trying to drive sensible people into a coronary? Using HIS ineptness to cause competent people to short circuit. I think of Rex Tillerson and Gen. Milley just sitting by a lake every day with iced tea REFUSING to read the newspaper.... FOREVER!
I find myself wondering if Obama did TOO GOOD a job. Smart, a good person, one who tried to offer his opponents a chance to show a win even if they lost and then after Trump was such a s***heel with the birth certificate hoax, Obama rightly roasted him a bit in public at that dinner and suddenly Trump was set aflame with fury. I was one of those who was totally skeptical of the wisdom of Obama 2008 thinking that we needed a "wartime consigliere"... someone who KNOWS they are at war, which Hilary Clinton knew, but NO One in the Democratic Party is both capable or willing to fight as hard as is needed. Left to today's reality it could take 10 or 15 years to organically assemble the right people. Meanwhile we just hope Trump is weakened enough and tens of millions of Dem voters get their passports by the end of summer!

(41,457 posts)Even though Obama did it in a teasing manner, and it was during the annual event where the puffed-up Washington egos get tweaked, Chump still took it in the WORST WAY POSSIBLE.
Everything Obama said about Chump on that day was well-deserved and earned. It just proves to all of us that Chump has no sound judgment once he's been verbally stung. Not one iota. It demonstrated he's a terrible leader and an even worse diplomat.

Seriously, will the US ever be trusted on the world stage again?
We might get a good president again, but everyone knows now that we are always one election away from a disaster.
