The world map of Biden “recognitions” is quite instructive.
No surprise that the core BlueGov-aligned vassals are tripping over themselves to congratulate and celebrate, happy at the prospect of the gushing service they are preparing to mete out as opposed to their sullen compliance during the Trump years.

More notable, though less remarkable if you think about it, has been the defection of the “RedGov” protectorates despite their obvious preference for Trump.
But their security is ultimately too tightly bound up with the US to play too obvious a part in their internal factional disputes.
Congratulations @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris. Joe, we’ve had a long & warm personal relationship for nearly 40 years, and I know you as a great friend of Israel. I look forward to working with both of you to further strengthen the special alliance between the U.S. and Israel.

But hey, at least the US Embassy was moved to Jerusalem and Israel recognized Kosovo, so hopefully the anguished MAGA boomers and “Pray for Israel” evangelicals populating the replies to Bibi’s Tweet can take solace in that.
Trump went out of his way to publicize a call with Taiwan after his election, sell it weapons and sent a high ranking official there recently as part of his anti-China policy
Not exactly Netanyahu level, but another insult on his way out, leaders acting like he doesn’t exist https://t.co/k5H5hKtbIf

Expecting loyalty and gratitude from svidomy, LOL.
Even “Trump of the Tropics” Bolsonaro appears to be throwing in the towel, now observing that Trump is not the most important person in the world.

Mexico's President says he can't congratulate any of the "candidates" yet in the U.S. election…. he was robbed once of an election … and he'll wait for the entire process to finish before offering his felicitaciones.

Perhaps Trumperino shouldn’t have been so hard on the bad hombres.
And, unsurprisingly, Russia and China.
While Russia obviously has a greater stake in Trump whereas China has a greater stake in Biden, the dissolution of political unity in the US is something that benefits both far more.

This is actually a good thing. It’s time for all those rapture-tards to realize who they’ve been praying for all these years. I foresee a mass–forgive the term!–exodus of Christians from the Zio-train in the very near future.
His off-the-cuff remarks about ‘Mexican rapists’ during the last election notwithstanding, Trump actually has a good personal rapport with AMLO. They both successfully renegotiated NAFTA together.
Is it odd that her last name is ‘English’? Fitting in any case.
There’s nothing intrinsically anti-Russian in Biden or pro-Russian in Trump. With regards to Russia, the situation depends only on the strength of Russian defenses. Usually, American power and decision makers remain unchanged over decades.
This is assuming that Trump had something to do with his administration’s policy. If they instead credit it to some deep-state bureaucrat who they assume is thinking “I’m so sorry we elected this dumb prole,” (because that’s what they’ve no doubt heard from at least a few American officials) then sending congratulations seems like gratitude. They also might observe how much loyalty Trump showed to his own supporters, people like Darren Beattie, and conclude that none is owed to him anyway.
He knows where the real actions at!

Nobody expects Trump to win this one, and so the nations of the world are kissing up to the new POTUS. The USA isn’t a hyperpower anymore, but it’s still a great power. This costs them nothing. It’s standard diplomacy for a smaller nation. It’s only people from great nations like Russia and America who expect national leaders to stand on principle. 😉
Bibi in particular has to kiss the USA’s butt, though I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets booted in favor of Gantz, as you say.

AK is very good at what he does. But for pure literary skill, not geopolitical analysis, Linh Dinh is on another level.
I can’t tell whether Modi is being pragmatic, or super-cucked.
I am leaning towards the latter though. (“vibrant”) If he is counting on the half-blood of Harris, to bias her to show special favor towards India in the future, then it seems superfluous to publicly promote miscegenation, before Indians, and unnecessary to stroke her pride. I mean what, is she going to give all her attention to Jamaica? Land of her father who abandoned her. No, I say, her pride will call her to the filthy streets of India because India is a bigger, higher-status country.
But maybe Modi is just playing for time, until he can get a full-blooded Indian into the Oval Office. Perhaps, he feels Kamala is only a means to that end, and Haley is his goal.
Doesn’t Netanyahu have to play to American Jews too?
Viktor Orban in Hungary has yet to congratulate Harris-Biden.
Turkish Vice President congratulated Biden (Nain opposition leader and kurdish opposition as well.). Also, Erdogan just sacked head of the central bank and his son in law, Minister of Economy, apparently resigned due to “health reasons” via Instagram post and his twitter account is gone (This might be fake/reversed, yet to confirm officially.).
It is too bad that a lot of the great African dictators are dead. It would have been nice to read their Twitter feeds.
Kamala Harris is most definitely more connected to her Indian side as her Jamaican father divorced her Indian mother when Kamala was quite young and it was her mother who brought her up. She also visited India numerous times when she was young with her mother (Tamil Nadu I believe)
I was very shocked when I learned that Nikki Haley was pure Indian. That being said, I would reckon that as far as dual-loyalties are concerned, someone like Kamala Harris will be more prone to them (did I mention Harris is married to a Jew as well?) than Haley simply because the latter just seems more Americanised, as I said earlier, most people couldn’t tell that she is foreign, she looks like a tanned Southerner, so perhaps this has lead to her having less qualms about her American (see White) identity?
The shooting will never start, any assertion to that effect is either just naivety or a massive cope by 4/pol/ fantasists who have spent the past 4 years dreaming of a Day of the Rope
HAAAAA.
I would have loved to see Trump’s face when Netenyahoo plunged the knife in his back.

US-Mexicans relations under Trump have actually been quite good, and Trump and AMLO built a good relationship.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-10-30/trump-talks-up-his-amlo-ties-in-bid-to-trim-biden-s-latino-lead
The USMCA was intended to harm the Mexican automotive assembly industry by mandating that at least two-fifths of assembly be completed by workers earning at least $16/hr (i.e. US and Canadian workers), but the response of the automotive industry thus far has mainly been to increase wages in Mexico rather than abandon their extensive investments.

https://europe.autonews.com/automakers/vw-mexico-agrees-55-hike-worker-pay-and-benefits
So it appears that Trump made Mexico great again…
Outside of fatherless Hitler-worshippers on boards there must be some heterosexual males left.
I would say it depends on the lighting, and the picture. I wonder whether they could use a filter sometimes, to make her look less Indian? Her parents look Indian. Her children definitely look Indian, and her husband (who is white) even looks a bit Indian. Interestingly, she is a Sikh. But, as we all know, Sikh pols in the West are pretty anti-white.
I’m not sure that there are any Indian pols in the West who don’t have supra-loyalty to Indians. I’d rather the Chinese installed some strong man. He might have supra-Chinese loyalty, but I think the appeal of the West is limited to the Chinese, at least, when compared to Indians, at the moment. And, given the current situation, and current displays of Indian pols, I appreciate Chinese antagonisms.
Harris is definitely viler than Haley, because she would play to blacks more, and is probably descended from worse people, but I’m not sure that it isn’t better to put a miscegenated face on things, with the vile attitude on display, for all.
Notwithstanding, Trump comes across as less hostile towards Russia than Biden.
I sense a Cartereque stance, in the form of Biden talking tough and doing some idiotic things related to Russia, while being more agreeable to nuke arms control limits.
https://whatwouldspideydo.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/haley-romney-101.jpg
In the above photo of her next to Romney, she doesn’t seem too dark or have any features that would give her away. You are right about her husband, he too doesn’t look Anglo. Initially I thought Haley was some Meztizo, I had her pegged as a non-Anglo White in any case.
I think all visibly foreign people have dual loyalties at best and single loyalties (not to the country which they are elected in) at worst.
We will have to wait and see how things turn out, it could be that the Biden-Harris regime end up not doing much and the apocalypse scenario by right-wingers never pans out.
Leaving out a good number of competent others on geopolitical analysis.
People aren’t going to start a shooting war, thus leaving the comforts of their life (which despite all the doom mongering, is still in the top 1% as far as world living standards are concerned) just because their boy lost the election and they have a niggling doubt that the vote was stolen.
Unless Harris starts grabbing guns, nothing will happen.
From neocon Michael Rubin:

In line with Americans at large not being as generally sophisticated on foreign affairs as some others abroad. Another matter concerns how smaller nations under the category of client state, can over time not feel as subservient to the given master.
I think Israel’s support for Azerbaijan was a political mistake. The Russian and Chinese stuff they can probably shrug off because it doesn’t touch along ethnic fault-lines.
Israel came through in 2016, blocking the vote-fraud software that the Dem machine uses through their back-doors. At least that is my take on it. Since then the mail-in voting has made election security almost impossible (when the GOP establishment and media look the other way anyhow), but I have to wonder if Israel also played a role. Certainly Trump seemed very angry on election night, though he expected fraud on a massive level. My guess is that he really though they wouldn’t be bold enough to rig an election that he was winning in a landslide.
That might have been true (against Clinton) in 2016; but since then, Trump has repeatedly stabbed Russia in the back. China has given Trump trademarks & suspicious payments, and they wouldn’t have done so for nothing.
How is it playing domestically?
Maybe getting paid to help kill Christians is popular in Israel.
Azerbaijan has the money to pay for the Israeli weapons, in conjunction with a relatively influential Jewish population in Azerbaijan.
Unbalanced Michael McFaul
The below linked RT piece adds balance to what Michael McFaul left out. In addition, Biden (as well as McFaul) have said some negatively inaccurate things against Russia.
Did McFaul have anything to say about Putin’s not too distant comment, saying there didn’t seem to be anything wrong with what Hunter Biden did in Ukraine? (An actual matter having to do with Joe Biden.)
Was Putin being cute? He’s IMO mistaken, if he believes that will curry favor with Biden. Putin’s comment can also be seen as supporting a society with extreme instances of nepotism.
As I mentioned further up this thread, there’s a possible Carteresque stance in the form of Biden likely talking tough and doing some idiotic things related to Russia, while being agreeable to a nuke arms reduction.

So how is the whole thing going to end?
https://i.pinimg.com/originals/51/bc/cb/51bccb9f87cd5427aea2d589732b6eea.jpg
Here is my expert anonymous shitposter prediction:
Donald Trump will loudly talk and tweet about fraud for few days, max week or two, then concede.
Joe (or Kamala) will end in the White House, the election results will not be reversed.
Donald Trump or any of his family members will not end in prison, will not flee abroad, will not be prosecuted in any meaningful way.
Donald Trump will spend next few years loudly talking how he was cheated and how Joe and Kamala suck.
2020 election truth debate will be the 911 Truth debate for 2020’s. Afterwards, everyone will forget about the whole thing.
When there is next Republican president, he/she/they/zir/xir will be designated as new target of world wide hate, and Donald Trump will be rehabilitated.
Everyone will talk what great statesman he was, how succesful, presidential and dignified he was in comparison to the REAL HITLER sitting in the White House now.
This is my take.
Your takes?
Trump has had little choice, I think the Kremlin understood that.
Overall, I agree.
I disagree with only one point. This one:
I am sure that they’re going to indict him with something, if only to try and ensure that he doesn’t or can’t run in 2024. Prosecutors from the Southern District of NY are already circling his businesses like vultures, and prosecutors in California and other liberal bastions are not far behind.
Leader of Estonian ruling coalition partner and Estonian interior minister, election rigged and Biden’s corrupt:
https://news.yahoo.com/estonian-far-coalition-partner-says-221633696.html
VILNIUS (Reuters) – Leaders of a far-right party in Estonia’s government coalition on Sunday denounced the U.S. election result as rigged and called president-elect Joe Biden “corrupt”, sparking a political crisis as other coalition partners condemned the comments….
“In my opinion, there is no question at all that these (U.S.) elections are rigged,” said Martin Helme, head of the populist far-right Ekre party who is also the finance minister, according to local news portal Delfi.
“Joe Biden and Hunter Biden are corrupt types,” added his father Mart Helme, who is the interior minister.
Correct, but his army of lawyers will probably keep him safe, though this process will neutralize him.

Actually Trump did far more against Russia than, let say, Obama. The retard did everything possible to start a new Cold War with Russia, China and Iran.
https://www.globalresearch.ca/trump-hellbent-provoking-new-cold-war/5725187
This is one of the reasons he got destroyed. He made too many enemies with everyone, everywhere. Making everybody an enemy is the dumbest strategy possible.
The only chance for retarded low IQ US whites are Russia, China and Iran. But they were too stupid and too animalistic to realise that and started to lash out at anything that isn’t a total US puppet. Started trying to prop up the empire that will eat them later.
I’m not surprised that jews keep you on a tight leash. You are dumb, but also aggressive animals that need to be controlled and have their teeth taken away.
The only thing that could stop a liberal take over of the world is Eurasia. The West is gone and the white retards haven’t even realised it, lashing out at other countries for not being US puppets – that is – for not being puppets to the same force that is destroying the retarded US whites.

I disagree about them hating on the new Republican President. Unless they vote for someone who is a real Trumper, chances are the GOP are going to want to play it “safe” (I.e they don’t want another Trump incident again) and select someone who has a few Trumpian sound bytes but is overall just another Jeb Bush sort of figure. I think Tom Cotton would fit this role quite nicely.
Trump was a revolution. They do not like it and will be damn sure its never repeated, even if they haven to pacify the mob. Plus we also have to remember that Trumpism itself is on borrowed time. It is mainly a blue collar affair with older baby boomers who want their “old country” back. I think the vast majority of white collar millennials zealously defend the establishment or simply do not care, hence why most went to Biden. So give it a few more cycles and the movement itself will be relegated to oblivion
So how does he think Biden will work for him when Biden’s already bought and paid for by the Chicoms? Or will he just lay low for two years until Kameltoe does her thang?
Agree, except:
There will never be another Republican president, and maybe not even one of the houses of congress for the foreseeable future. GOP will be relegated to statewide offices at best in remaining red states, maybe even go the way of the whigs.
Dem party, with no real opposition, will fracture into two (at least), and become the new two party system – one faction wanting full steam ahead communism, the other wanting to slow-walk it (the latter will take the place of the old GOP, becoming the new “conservative” Washington Generals to the progressive Harlem Globetrotters).
The US will lose so much standing in the world it will no longer be the focus of world-wide hate, being merely a Chinese vassal state so not worth the effort and energy. Either Putin, or some visegrad up and comer will take the role of being the “new” Hitler.
Might be worth undermining the US and Biden by openly saying there was clear fraud and refusing recognition.

If it had to be a half-Indian, I would have preferred Gabbard.
Tulsi Gabbard is not half Indian – she has no Indian ancestry whatsoever in her bloodline – she is just of Hindu faith, a Hare Krishna.
So Trump doesn’t have agency now?
If I understand correctly, Gabbard is from native stock, in so far her brownness comes from American Samoa, and, she is mostly European. I did not realize she was a Hindu.
Trump’s win in 2016 was seen as being encouraged by Brexit and spiritually part of the same movement, which makes me wonder if the abrupt end to the Trump movement mean the same for Brexit symbolically?
Trump had Nigel Farage speak at some of his rallies during this campaign, which obviously was an attempt to recreate the same sentiments that got him elected in 2016.
RFE/RL BS on Putin-Biden
Re: https://www.rferl.org/a/what-result-five-reasons-putin-slow-to-speak-about-biden-s-win/30938980.html
Obama was slow in congratulating Putin on the latter’s presidential win. Some Democratic politicos and others chastised Trump for congratulating Putin on the latter’s last presidential win.
Any conclusive confirmation on the RFE/RL referenced claim of what Biden supposedly said to Putin? Biden has a bombastic history of trying to come across as a tough guy. If Biden indeed said such, then Putin has even more good reason to not feel so obligated to congratulate him. Like Biden can really kick Putin’s ass and outwit him.
Calling Trump a liar, narcissist, bully and corrupt, easily applies to Biden.

No, he just never had the political capital.
Probably a moot point, because Azerbaijan has won. Plan calls for current territory to be kept, plus additional withdrawals by Armenian forces and concomitant loss of territory, with Russian peacekeepers in place.

Looks like Pompeo is supporting Trump. This is pretty surprising since Pompeo is typically aligned with establishment neocons.
Trump traded diplomatic favors for business favors.
Pompeo is thinking of future Republican primaries.
Watch Ireland.
I agree with you. Trump’s rabid anti-China and anti-Russia antics only strengthens the liberals. Meanwhile his poor handling of the Coronavirus pandemic at home (not that the Democrats would have handled it any better if they were in power), especially with all his non-scientific rants, were easy targets for the Democrats and liberals.
The West (ie USA and Western Europe) is a basket case, there is no turning the tide of complete takeover by liberals and population replacement by Latinos in the USA and by Africans(Sub-Saharan)plus Muslim people – groups in the case of Western Europe.
For countries in Eastern Europe now within EU, China and other countries in Asia, and Russia, their chances of survival from this dismal future depend on whether they can resist liberalism long enough till the true bad effects of liberalism are completely evident in the West in the form of civilizational collapse.
The liberal elites in power in the US and her allies are resilient. How many have predicted imminent economic collapse or societal chaos as a consequence of their policies, yet none happened. Instead we see US and EU soft power in action – influence of ‘pro democracy’ on the minds of youth in Eastern Europe, Hong Kong etc. I do think that liberal policies will ultimately lead to loss of status and economic might of US and the EU but it will not be in the very near future, perhaps not in Putin’s or Xi’s tenure even. Instead, China and Russia will be under assault by a West that is increasingly controlled by liberal/progressive elites. I think leaders from both these countries know that, none of them are in any mood for a swift Biden congratulatory message.
