Is there a reason why the US should stay in the UN?

Mr. Trump, please buy the UN building and then fire 🔥 their asses.

[manc]

No need for us to stay in the UN, and the UN can get the F out of this country too.
The UN is nothing more that than a far left tool to hurt countries which does not agree with them. Like the League of Nations

[manc]

Republicans maybe in power will veto,. but which has been proven under obama, the left will not.
Screw the UN.

[manc]

and if we stayed and liberals get the White house , then they will not veto, so why stay and support the UN.

Get rid of the UN.

[af_vet_1981]

I guess we just need to keep liberals out of the White House.

[manc]

yea problem is that the colleges keep turning out dumb a#### who then vote every 4 years. Maybe CA can leave us San Diego, Camp Pendleton, and other parts of the southern state, and then the rest form their own country, but so long as they build a wall along their border from us.

Well I can dream it is Christmas.

[D-fendr]

What is absurd is that the U.N. - a body comprised mostly of corrupt dictatorships - is perceived by some to have moral authority.

Bizarre.

[Iscool]

Yep...Should stay in just for the purpose of vetoing every proposal that comes down the pike while eliminating as much funding as possible...

[Deplorable American1776]

There is no reason for us to be in or hosting the UN. The UN building could be used for something worthwhile - an abandoned UN building would be more of value than it is doing now.

[right way right]

Destroy it from within.

There are still members of the MSM that refuse to believe Alger Hiss was a communist mole in the DoS. This in light of the Venona transcripts (FBI), Whitaker Chambers “Pumpkin Papers”, and the KGB archives that were opened after the fall of the Soviet Union.

Fake News: J. Walter Duranty was a correspondent for the NYT and also drew a check from Stalin's NKVD (forerunner of KGB). He wrote that the Soviet's 5 year plans were going smoothly, ignored the forced famine in the Ukraine that killed millions, and ignored Stalin's Great Purge. The SOB was awarded the Pulitzer Prize and his plaque adorns the wall of the NYT.

Get out now.

In the U.N.’s many peace keeping missions into Africa there is nothing more than a long sordid history of their troops raping women in the countries they are stationed in. When bullets fly they beat a hasty retreat. We have no reason to remain in and fund them.

[TonyM]

Move it to Venezuela or some other dirt poor crime infested location where the crooks who run the UN will feel at home.

[MCF]

Exactly!

[proud American in Canada]

Can’t think of one reason.

My memory is a bit foggy, but as I recall, the organization wasn’t particularly helpful in Iraq
