The US pulled out of other nuclear agreements. Trust but Verify has become Suspect and Militarize.

Trust but Verify has become Suspect and Militarize.

Present US strategic thinkers throughout their careers have only known total US dominance abroad, unlimited fiat/debt to spend, and pliant sheep at home. All of his has been weaponized.

Reagan respected (and even made friends with) the Soviet leaders, because he understood, at least, they could destroy us.

That kind of humility does not exist today in Washington DC. Far worse, not only is there no humility, there's no institutional incentive to learn it, and DC has a woke ideological zeal and level of corruption/milking the system far greater than any time in the past
