UTrump Uqhubela Phambili kuHlengahlengiso lweNyukliya olunexabiso eliphezulu, eTshayela ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo (NYT). Eli libali elimangalisayo. Ukungeniswa kwayo kukuba iTrump iqhubela phambili ngokuhlengahlengisa ngokungakhathali kunye nokwandiswa kwezixhobo zenyukliya. Emva koko iphawula ukuba ngokwenza njalo, uqhubeka nezicwangciso kunye neekhontrakthi eziyilwe ngu-Obama. Emva koko isixelela, ngobuso obuthe ngqo, ukuba u-Obama wayila le 1 yetriliyoni yeedola "yophuculo" lwezixhobo zenyukliya ... kuba wayecinga ukuba uClinton uya kuphumelela ngo-2016 kwaye "anciphise kakhulu" izicwangciso. I-spin apha sisithuko esibuhlungu kubukrelekrele babafundi.
Ewe, “ukuphuculwa” kwezixhobo zenyukliya kukungakhathali, okunexabiso eliphezulu, okungeyomfuneko kwaye kuyingozi. Abaninzi bethu babhala ngayo kule migaqo xa u-Obama wayiqalisa. Kodwa ubude obungenangqondo apho i-Times ihamba khona ukuze ibethelele inyani yokuba kule meko uTrump uphumeza isicwangciso sika-Obama uyaphefumla.
Siyacelwa ukuba sikholwe ukuba u-Barack Obama okrelekrele kakhulu kwaye onobuchule uchithe iinyanga, iminyaka, edibanisa uphuculo lwe-1 TRILLION ye-XNUMX yezigidigidi zelizwe ngenkolelo yokuba oza kungena ezihlangwini zakhe emva koko azinqumle zibe ngamasuntswana. Le yimbudane yenqanaba leTrump evela kwi-Times. Kutheni ungaxeleli nje inyaniso? UTrump uyaqhubeka nokungakhathali, i-boondoggle enobungozi eyenziwe ngu-Obama. Uqhuba iplanethi esongelayo, i-ajenda yokuzuza imfazwe “yokusekwa komgaqo-nkqubo wamazwe angaphandle amabini” athandwa kakhulu ngamajelo eendaba ethu. Ndiqinisekile ukuba "unzulu" kunye "nokuqonda" uGeneral Kelly kunye noGeneral Mattis - abathandwa ngakumbi ziimavens zethu ngokuzisa "ucwangco kunye nolwakhiwo" kwi-Trump White House yasendle - babevumelana ngokupheleleyo nenyathelo likaTrump lokuqhubeka nesicwangciso sika-Obama.
Ewe, ndiyavuya ukubona i-NYT itsalela ingqalelo kobu bugeza. Kwaye kuhle ukubona ukuba abazange bavele bayibethe ngoyaba imvelaphi yesicwangciso. Kodwa i-BS ye-spin ekhaliphileyo - “Owu, u-Obama khange ngenene AKUTHETHA ukwandisa izixhobo zenyukliya ngesicwangciso sakhe, uh, ukwandisa izixhobo zenyukliya; wayeqinisekile ukuba uHillary uza kuliyeka icebo lakhe kamva” — iyamangalisa.
