:Comment: During the [[ObamaCare]] debate, I had a series of discussions with Rattrolls @ both [[Conservapedia]] & [[Rationalwiki]] over the comparative healthcare costs in the [[United States]] with our subsidized [[socialist]] [[allies]] in [[NATO]] and the Asia-Pacific. I tried explaining the real cost to the average American citizen of maintaining a "[[security]]" umbrella or guarantee versus our socialist allies paying for it themselves (I was actually ahead of [[Trump]], as the record can prove) and how US defense spending allowed for a [[European]] [[welfare state]] (or a $24 kidney transplant in [[New Zealand]] as Ace McWicked claimed). Hopefully now, the average American will begin to see the real cost of a bloated military that only [[Pelosi]], [[Zelensky]] and their friends benefit from.

*[[Russia Truth]]: [https://russiatruthdotcom.substack.com/p/the-psychological-bait-and-switch]
{{quotebox-float|By analyzing the specific vulnerabilities of [[Trump]]’s [[psychology]]—characterized by extreme [[delusional]] [[grandiosity]], [[intolerance]] of perceived weakness, and reliance on external [[flattery]]—hardline [[foreign policy]] networks and mega-donor factions executed a psychological “bait-and-switch.” This maneuver not only drew Trump into an open-ended [[Middle Eastern]] [[war of attrition]], but fractured the [[populist]] electoral coalition, systematically isolating the [[executive]] and locking him into [[institution]]al and [[financial]] dependence on [[neoconservative]] and pro-[[Israel]] donors....
The wreckage of [[American]] [[unipolar]] [[statecraft]] in the [[Persian Gulf]] cannot be understood through the lens of [[rational]] grand [[strategy alone]]. While [[military]] analysts point to depleted interceptor stockpiles, unviable [[maritime]] supply lines, and industrial [[manufacturing]] deficits, the primary driver of this [[historical]] catastrophe was [[psychological]].}}
