Rapin' Richie Rich has a tantrum: "They should be in here very happily helping us! They should be jumping to help us!"

"The U.S. will also coordinate with those Countries so that everything goes quickly, smoothly, and well," he wrote. "This should have always been a team effort, and now it will be — It will bring the World together toward Harmony, Security, and Everlasting Peace!"

On Monday, Trump got his answer: Other countries aren't coming to help.

“They should be in here very happily helping us,” Trump told reporters Monday. "They should be jumping to help us because we’ve helped them for years."

Trump's newest childlike strategy is to act like the U.S. has never needed help to begin with.

"Because of the fact that we have had such Military Success, we no longer 'need,' or desire, the NATO Countries’ assistance — WE NEVER DID!" Trump raged in his Tuesday post. "Likewise, Japan, Australia, or South Korea. In fact, speaking as President of the United States of America, by far the Most Powerful Country Anywhere in the World, WE DO NOT NEED THE HELP OF ANYONE!"

Start a war, with no plan, no heads up the allies. It goes South, so now you want help. Well pal, no help is coming.

and when they tell him "no, you made the mess, you clean it up", he goes into toddler mode and throws a tantrum.

of course he expects everyone to bow to whatever the hell just pooped up in his feeble mind.
