YOU are the embarrassment, trump.

A year ago people respected the US military. Now you have copied Putin's self-humiliating needless petulant war strategy.

Edit: I DON'T mean respected the purposes to which it was deployed or the decisions of its stupid presidents, I mean that people believed it was the strongest and most advanced military. Now they look weak and ineffective.

Not really, he just cranked it up. Brainwashed people respected the US military. Outside the US, they are just a joke that everyone hates. Most people don't actually see bombimg vrown people as patriotic and brave.

Respected them as a military force, I mean, not for the decisions their lunatic presidents made about deployment. World's most powerful military, that sort of thing. Now they look weak and ineffective.
