UDonald Trump uthanda abashicileli. Uyabathemba ngokupheleleyo. Yena kholelwa I-Russia iVladimir Putin phezu kweqela lakhe lokhuseleko lwesizwe. Yena senzeke "ulwalamano oluhle" noMongameli wasePhilippine uRodgogo Duterte, umxhasi owaziwayo wokubulala abantu abaninzi. Une lilile ukuba "kwakuyinkolelo enkulu nelungelo" ukuzisa uMongameli waseTurkey uRecep Tayyip Erdoğan, kungekudala emva kokuba iphosa limi libukele njengoko izithuthuthu zakhe zibetha ababhikishi ngaphandle kwe-ambassy yaseTurkey eWashington, DC
Kwaye konke kuthatha iTrump ukuphelisa Umongameli waseKorea waseKorea uKim Jong-unomthwalo wokuxhatshazwa okhokelela ekufeni komfundi wasekholeji wase-US u-Otto Warmbier kwakungenxa yeKim ukuphika: "Unditshela ukuba wayengayazi ngako kwaye ndiya kumthabatha ngelizwi lakhe . "Umbono kaTrump kaKim, obongamela ukuphanga urhulumente, inokuthi idibene yinto yokuba iinkokheli ezimbini, ngaphakathi Amagama kaTrump, "we ethandweni."
Akunakukhunjulwa: I-Trump ibonisa ingozi ecacileyo nekhoyo yangoku kwokhuseleko lwesizwe sase-United States. Kodwa umgaqo-nkqubo wangaphandle ungomnye wezona zizathu ezininzi uTrump enike lona uhlanga, ngakumbi abantu abahamba phambili, ukuba bafune ukususwa kwakhe kwiofisi. Iqela leqela lomkhosi RootsAction u qulunqe inani elikhulayo yamanqaku okuphambuka (ukuvakaliswa komgaqo-siseko kaMongameli weemeko zengxamiseko yokwakha udonga lwamanqwanqwana isibalo seshumi elinesibhozo), eninzi into engenzi lutho nokuphazamiseka kwesiRashiya kunyulwa kwe-2016 okanye nayiphi na enye iphenyo yophando.
"Kudinga ukuba afakwe ngokukhawuleza," uDavid Swanson, umququzeleli weqela leqela, utshela Inkqubela. "Ubungozi kwimozulu yoMhlaba. Ubungozi ekukhuselweni kwemfazwe yenyukliya. Asiyi kuphila njengento eqhubekayo le ndlela. Asikwazi ukulinda iminyaka emibini okanye emine ukufumana omnye umntu. "
Izizathu zokuthi i-Trump bootworthy zibandakanya: ukuphulwa komthetho ngokuchasene nomongameli, ukukhuthaza ubundlobongela, ukubandlulula ngesiseko senkolo, ukusongela ngokungemthetho nokuqhuba iimfazwe, ukuhlula abantwana abafudukela kubazali babo, ngokuxhaphaza amandla akhe okuxolela, ukukhohlisa irhafu, ukuhlaselwa inkululeko lokushicilela, kunye nokutshutshiswa kwezombusazwe.
Zonke ezi zizathu ezifanelekileyo; UJohn Nichols, yakhe incoko kulo mbandela ukubiza ukuba ikhefu lihla kwiTrump, liza kunye nezinye ezimbalwa. Ngaphezu koko, kukho izinto ezinokuthi zenzeka ngenxa yokuba sasiya kucinezela. [Yintoni ebona ukuba yintoni? Senze uluhlu!] Ixilongo ngumlilo ohambayo. Ufuna ukucinywa-ngobuchule nangengqiqo, kunjalo.
Kodwa kukho enye indawo apho ukuqhubela phambili kufuneka kukhunjulwe i-adage yakudala: Nangona iwashi ephukile ilungile kabini ngosuku. Kungekudala, iTump ebizwa ukurhoxiswa kwemikhosi yase-US eSiriya nase-Afghanistan, ekhuthaza ukuxhalabisa kwimiba yezopolitiko yesizwe, kubandakanywa namaDemokhrasi amaninzi.
I-Senator Cory Booker, owayengumongameli we-Democratic Republic of New Jersey, bhilizwa oku "kungenangqiqo kwaye kuyingozi," kwongezelela, "Le ndlela yokubambisa i-fly-by-night yangaphandle yinkqubo yenkxaso-mpahla kaMongameli ibambelele ingqungquthela yeqela likazwelonke likaKhomishoni, loloyiko oluxakekileyo kunye nokudideka phakathi kwamalungu ethu, kunye neengozi ezinokulimaza kakhulu imizamo yethu yokuphumelela ukutshatyalaliswa kwe-ISIS . "
Abanye baqhubela kwiTikiti yeDemokhi ukuba bathathe indawo ye-Trump-kuquka iiSenenja njenge-Kamala Harris waseCalifornia, u-Elizabeth Warren waseMassachusetts, u-Amy Klobuchar waseMinnesota, uKirsten Gillibrand waseNew York, noBernie Sanders waseVermont-bonke bathi baxhasa injongo yokuxoshwa kwebutho kodwa kwindlela uTrump ecebile ngayo malunga nayo.
Abaviwa baphakamisa ukukhathazeka okufanelekileyo-kodwa ke bonke abapolitiki abafumana izizathu zokuqhubeka belwa imfazwe. Ukurhoxiswa kwemikhosi yase-US eSiriya nase-Afghanistan akuze kwenzeka ukuba siqhubeka sigxininisa kwizizathu ezingafanelekanga. Ngaba kukho umntu ocinga ukuba imikhosi kunye nokushisa imishini yenza imeko engcono?
"Ndixhase imikhosi ephuma eSiriya ngaphambi kokuba ingene, ifanayo ne-Afghanistan," utsho uShanson, ongumphathi weqela World BEYOND War. "Ukuba iTrump yenza ngathi ufuna ukwenza, kufuneka akhuthazwe, kwaye ndimkhuthazile. Ityhefu, le ngcamango yokuba ukhetha iplanga okanye ubuntu kwaye uvakalise ukuba yonke into abayenzayo ayiphutha, nokuba ngaba benza into ocinga ukuba ilungile. "
U-Swanson uthi i-progressives kufuneka izimisele ukunamathela kwiinkolelo zabo, nokuba iTrump iyavuma kwaye abaDemokhrasi abayithandi, kwaye banethemba lokuthi iTump iya kunika ngaphezu kokuthetha nje.
"Ndifuna inqubomgomo engcono, andifuni amaqhawe ukunqula, "utsho. "Andikhathalele ukuba umntu wenza into efanelekileyo ngenxa yezizathu ezingalunganga. Ukuba uyakhupha imikhosi e-Aram, andikulindelanga ukwazi ukuba kutheni. Lo ngumntu onokuphikisana kathathu kwisithuba somzuzu. Ngoko andinandaba nokufumana into enentliziyo yakhe, ukuba kukho into enjalo. Ndifuna i-US iphume eSiriya. "
Ekuqaleni konyaka, abacebisi abakhulu beSizwe bezokhuseleko banikezela iinkcazo kwiNgqungquthela apho ziphikisana ngokucacileyo Iingcamango zikaMongameli ezigxininise kakhulu ngehlabathi apho asebenza khona. Hayi, bathi, iNyakatho Korea ayizange iphelelwe yingozi. ISIS ayinakunqotshwa eSiriya. I-Iran igxininisa imigaqo yeqhinga le-nyukliya apho i-Trump ihamba khona ngobuwula. URashiya iyaqhubeka nokuzama ukuphazamisa intando yesininzi. Ukutshintsha kwemozulu kwenzeka ngokwenene kwaye kufaka isizwe sengozini.
Ixilongo, ngokucacileyo, yaphendulwa ngokukhupha abacebisi bakhe, tweeting "Aphosakele!" Kwaye "Mhlawumbi Ubulumko buya kubuya esikolweni!" Kamva, yena zifunyenwe "bekungenakucatshulwa ngokupheleleyo" -ukubungqina abaye banikezela kwiintlanganiso ezivelayo ziphila kwiC-SPAN.
Ngaphantsi kweTonga, izivumelwano zokunciphisa ingozi yemfazwe yenyukliya kunye nokujongana neengxaki zokufudumala kwehlabathi ziye zaphonswa ngaphandle kwewindow.
"Izinto zam ezibini ezixhalabisa kakhulu yi-apocalypse enyukliya kunye nenhlekelele yesimo sezulu, kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo uhamba ngendlela yakhe yokunyusa iingxaki zombini," kusho uS Swanson. "Unyukile, ubuncinane okwethutyana, yonke imfazwe azuze yona. Uye wandisa umonakalo wokubulala. Wakhela iziseko ezingaphezulu. Ujongene nokunyuka okubanzi kwe-NATO, nangona yonke i-hoopla malunga namazwi akhe angalunganga [malunga nalo]. "
Kwakhona, kulungile ukukhumbula ukuba nje ngokuba iTrump iphikisana nento kunye namaDemokhrasi ayeninzi kuyo, akuthethi ukuba kulungile.
"I-NATO ibandakanya iindawo ezintathu zokulwa kwezempi kwihlabathi, ukusetyenziswa kwemali yamalungu ayo," utshilo u-Swanson, echaza ukuba ivumela ukuba abantu baseUnited States bahlukane. "Yisongelo kuxolo emhlabeni."
Ukuthetha ngokusongela uxolo eMhlabeni: Intonga. Akazange nje alandele ngokubiza kwakhe ukuhoxisa amabutho ase-US eSiriya nase-Afghanistan, unayo yongelwa Ukutshatyalaliswa kwe-Congressional kukunyanzelisa ukuphela kwe-US inkxaso yeSiriya yase-Saudi Arabia eYemen. NgoFebhuwari, iNdlu kudlula Amandla Amfazwe Isisombululo ebiza ukususwa kweMikhosi yeZizwe eziManyeneyo eMelika kwiinkqubo zaseRiphabhlikhi yaseYemen, ngokuyininzi ukukhuza i-Saudi Arabia Ku bulala intatheli yeJamal Khashoggi, apho iTump ihamba kakuhle.
Kubonakala ngathi nayiphi na ixesha umntu nabani na ofuna ukuyeka ukuthatha inxaxheba ekubulaweni okungenangqondo, kukho ukuhlaziya.
UAndrew Bacevich, umkhosi wezempi ohlala phantsi ezininzi iincwadi kwimbali yempi yase-US kunye nomgaqo-nkqubo wangaphandle kwaye okwangoku ngutitshala eYunivesithi yaseBoston, wathetha nje ngoku Inkqubela malunga nomgaqo-nkqubo wangaphandle weTrump, njengokuba kunjalo.
"Ixilongo lazisa kwi-worldview engqalileyo kwaye [ayibonakali ngokungaqondakaliyo ngendlela umhlaba usebenza ngayo, nangaphandle kweentengiso," kusho uBacevich. "Wazingqongileyo kunye nabangaphantsi kwakhe. Ungumntu ongafuni isiluleko. "
Okwangoku, kubi kakhulu. Kodwa, u-Bacevich uyaqhubeka, "Kukho imiba apho ndicinga ukuba izilwanyana zakhe zinokuzwakala-ukuba ziyakwazi ukuguqulwa kwiinkqubo ezicatshangelwe kakuhle. Ngokukodwa, isisiseko sakhe sokunciphisa ububanzi bemisebenzi yamasosha yase-US kunye nobukho bempi base-US emhlabeni jikelele. Ubonakala ecinga ukuba kukho into ephosakeleyo ngokusesikweni kumgaqo-nkqubo wezokhuseleko wesizwe osikhokelela ekubandakanyekeni kwimfazwe engapheliyo, kwaye usifumana ukuba sisebenzise imali ekhuselekileyo yokukhusela. Kwaye ndabelana nalo mbono. "
Ukukhawuleza, umzuzu uthathe kwaye iwashi ephukile iphinda iphosakele. Kukho, u-Bacevich uthi, "akukho bungqina bokuba unako ukuguqulela isicatshulwa kwinto enjengomgaqo ohambelanayo. Ngaloo ndlela kufuneka umlinganise ngokungaphumeleli. "
Kodwa u-Bacevich ukholelwa ukuba impembelelo yangexesha elide umgaqo-nkqubo wangaphandle wangaphandle weTrump ayingabi nakubantu abaninzi abantu bakholelwa. "UMongameli uya kushiya i-ofisi kungekudala okanye kamva, kwaye ndiyakrokrela ukuba siya kubonakala njengamandla amakhulu okwenza izinto eziyinqatha ngamanye amaxesha." Izivakalisi nezenzo zolawulo oluthile aziyi kutshintsha loo nto.
"Ndicinga ukuba ngoku kuyacaca ukuba ezinye iintlanga zithatha oko iTump ethethayo kwaye yenzayo ngqolowa yetyuwa," kusho uBacevich. "Bayaqonda ukuba lo mntu uyinto ye-buffon kwaye ngoko akufuneki kuthatyathwe ngokupheleleyo. Mhlawumbi bahlawulisa ngakumbi oko kuthethwa yi-apparatus yokhuseleko kunye kazwelonke kunokuba benze oko uMongameli athilo kwaye akwenzileyo. Ngenxa yokuba bonile ukuba oko akutshoyo akuguquleli kwizinto ezininzi ngokwemigqaliselo yesenzo. "
Kwaye ngokwenene iphakamisa ibha ngokwemiqathango yenkqubo ekufuneka iyenze ukuze iphumelele kwihlabathi elikhuselekileyo neli-saner. Kuba emva kokuba iTrump igxothwe-enye ngenye indlela, ngethemba lokuba kungekudala kunokuba kamva-iUnited States iya kuba lizwe elifudumalayo umgaqo-nkqubo welizwe langaphandle oqhutywa yi-imperialism yenkampani, ngokuxhaswa yi-bipartisan. Siya kuhanjelwa kwiimpawu ukuba ezinye iibhomu kunye nokubulala okungaphezulu akunakuyicombulula. Siya kuqhubeka sibhekana neengxaki zemvelo.
Simele silondoloze ukulwa kwedemokhrasi yethu, ngomgaqo-nkqubo ongaphandle onokuqonda, ukulingana kunye nobulungisa, kunye nokucaca kokuziphatha esiyidingayo ukudala indlela eqhubekayo kwixesha elizayo.
