When the US says “jump”, Ireland says “wouldn’t you rather I bent over, sir?”

@aral Then again, if the #OrangeCaesar tells you to do something, are you really in a position to deny Him? Is anyone?

He has the most fearsome war machine that mankind has ever invented, at his beck and call. They (the US Army) are already executing American citizens, to find and expel people with non-white skin...

Horror story... 😱 😭

If that "and" is a typo for "an", then no, I'm not Irish. My surname derives from Welsh😀, but my more immediate ancestors are English.

@PatternChaser @aral Ha, indeed it was an autocorrect. I was referring to "are you really in a position to deny Him? Is anyone?". That would be even more in line with English population 🤷
The only answer is yes, EU(rope) is in position and it should say no. But due to our servility we'll just play along and occasionally whine a bit.

Servility, yes. But what else can we do? Trump, Putin, Netanyahu, and all the other gangsters have nuclear weapons, and they'll use them if they become angry enough. We dare not resist, or they will kill us all. EVERYONE.

@aral @PatternChaser it's not that simple. There is a deterrent - both the UK and France have nukes plus we are NATO members. If nukes are used, nobody gets anything.

"If nukes are used, nobody gets anything."

Yes, but will any of those tyrants use them? Probably, if they get peeved enough. 😱
