    . . .

    See - didn't take THAT long.

    More to follow soon.

    Now, reportedly, there ARE formal talks beginning
    between the USA and China (in Switzerland).

    Trump was determined to shake things up a bit, and
    did. Expect the USA to come out of this in a somewhat
    (though not DRASTICALLY) better trade position.

    Trump clearly HOPED for "drastically", but I don't
    think that's possible given the current global
    manufacturing situation.

    The lefties WILL declare Trump to be a TOTAL FAILURE
    because he could not get EVERYTHING he hoped for,
    but we know that's political bullshit. As was, even
    some marginal changes are a VICTORY for the USA and
    will save us umpteen billions every year. 'Deals'
    are DEALS ... give and take.

    Oooooh, new Pope is about to come out ! ....

    Trump won't even honor his agreements
    with US cities, much less foreign "liberal"
    governments.

    bills for Trump campaign events

    He WILL here ... it's VITAL to his Greater USA
    plans. A few more deals and he's golden.

    Which would probably make your brain explode eh ...

    Any bitching about denying dinks and cheats some
    federal 'free money' - stuff it. THAT shit has
    to END. The (national) Taxpayers should NOT be
    on the hook for every little state-level oopsie
    or screw-up. YOU blow it, YOU pay.

    Trump doesn't care about a "Greater USA".

    He wants to enrich his billionaire friends,
    wreck the US economy and retire to France.





    "I could have been relaxing at Mar-a-Lago
    or in the south of France, which I would
    prefer to being in this country frankly."

    To conclude a "deal" with one of the few countries with which the US has
    a trade SURPLUS?

    Which would mean that the talks he claimed were happening...

    ...weren't.
