AMERICA 1ST!!!!!
China first. 😂😂
It's amazing that this guy was a senior official in DoD.
the ignorance and falsehoods from him are pretty shocking.
Why were the USA so successful in the Cold War?
They implemented the Marshall Plan to economically strengthen their partners in Europe.
The USA was the largest economy and opened its market to the products of its allies.
The USA offered its allies a security umbrella with nuclear deterrence through NATO.
This enabled America to push back the influence of the Soviet Union on Europe and ultimately win the Cold War.
The alliance between Western Europe and the USA is difficult today.
Germany, for example, follows a mercantilist economic model and is therefore dependent on cheap energy and large growth markets.
Russia and China can offer both to Western Europe like no other country.
The USA, on the other hand, is becoming increasingly less important as an economic partner.
And since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Western Europe no longer faces a serious military threat from Russia.
Nevertheless, tens of thousands of American soldiers are still stationed in hundreds of US military bases and US nuclear weapons are on German soil.
If you look at the situation objectively from the US perspective, America is protecting Europe from the countries with which it has close trade relations.
However, Europe's core interest is to further develop its economic relations with the US's biggest competitors.
Do not be blinded by the rhetoric of politicians.
Feelings, shared history, values, culture and traditions play no role at all in whether alliances really work.
What matters is whether interests coincide.
And it turns out that today the interests of Europe and the US are no longer compatible and this partnership will soon end.
yet now the US is economically weak.... and it shows so much
Defense budget increased every year under Biden. Much to my dislike
JP Morgan and BlackRock have a deal with a Ukrainian construction bank...
This guy is lying. Come on Joe do your job and challenge him
Joe’s the worst, completely partisan
Lying about what?!
If Joe had done his job we wouldn't be here. 😂
But Joe sleeps in till 9AM.😂😂
Most Americans believe we spend 3-4 times what the CCP spends on defense. Senator Sullivan revealed the Defense Intelligence Agency determined that China spends an equivalent amount as the US. When you factor in their Civilian Military Fusion and their warships are build by Chinese State Owned Companies (the cost doesn't show up in their budget), they are getting much more bang for the buck (DOD reliance on civilian contractors for functions that could be handled by conscripts also drives up our costs). In fact for 2 decades China has engaged in the largest military buildup since the end of the COLD WAR. In summer 2023, Senator Sullivan and several other Senators (bipartisan) introduced bill S.1791 - China Defense Spending Transparency Act, to educate the public about the true nature of China's military buildup. I don't know why the bill seems to be stuck in the Select Committee on Intelligence. I live in Florida so contacted Senator Rubio who is the ranking member on that committee to find out but he has not responded. This bill seems like a no brainer, does anyone know why the bill is stalled?
Because half your congress and senate takes bribes from china. 😂😂
Complete lies and falsehoods here from Colby.
As an independent I dont get caught up in the polarization. I have voted for both parties depending on their policies. This time I am not voting for a felon.
Reagan would be called a lefty in today's Republican party. He did literal amnesty
Thank you for your resume; we'll be in touch. DJT
Elbridge spot on. Nice to hear some sense being spoken on CNBC
Why do all these guys equate the Ukraine war (no U.S. troops) to our wars in Iraq/afghanistan (U.S. troops were involved)
It’s only a matter of time
Think about who is paying for it.
trump looks super old and scared
Biden looks like he has Parkinson's. 😂
Bidens falling upstairs while trumps standing after taking a bullet… iconic
I have a question: What does US wants by saying to the rest of the world America 1st and all relations are now transactional, including allies? I suspect the US is going to find a dead end by speaking to the wall those words, the world today is very much different from the post WW2 world.
If you don't defend democracy its NOT America first. Its not just abiut Ukraine! This guy is confused!
What kind of democracy have you seen in Ukraine?
An authoritarian executive branch.....
Blame your ancestors
@@Chris-xv7wdthe gop is a party of bullies. Prove me wrong.
Yawning gap. Maybe if you learn a new phrase like that don’t use it several times in the same interview.
man, that is so great. My god its been a looong 3.5 years
This guy has orange on his lips
