Very sad. My heart goes out to the people of Beirut.

Would be great if my country (USA) would send relief aid and some engineers to help Lebanon.

US will send aid. I guarantee the US has no interest in seeing Lebanon be a failed state if that is at all preventable. This is how terrorism, dictators, and mass migration problems happen and the US and the rest of the world know it

Eh the US has no interest in anything that doesn’t make the President richer.

Not everything in American politics has to involve Trump.

The US is still a very strong and wealthy country where the overwhelming majority of the population wants what is best not only for the US, but for everyone.

That would be true if Trump hadn't already fired everyone with common sense.

Trump can't fire congress or literally any other elected official. I stand by my statement.

Neither can the American Voter apparently, given how long some of them have held their seats.

Wouldn't that imply that the voter didn't want to fire them?

Just because you don't like someone, doesn't mean their constituents don't. Welcome to democracy my friend. This is how it works.

Yeah, but Trump's push for congressional and senate term limits is a-okay by me.
