‘Commerce not chaos': Trump remakes the foreign trip
The first multi-day foreign trip of President Donald Trump’s
second term bucked the norms of presidential travel, demonstrating
just how swiftly and drastically his transactional approach to
foreign policy has reshaped the way other countries interact
with the United States.
Trump’s whirlwind journey this week through three wealthy
Arab Gulf states appeared more like a governor’s economic
development mission — with corporate leaders and investment
pledges — than a typical presidential trip.

Bitch as you will, but the USA is NOT the Master Of
The World anymore. We need MONEY, good DEALS.
Funny how "we need their money"
disappears when it is China that is
buying up American assets.
No, it DOESN'T disappear ...
FIXES are still needed. Don't expect them
overnight.
There are steps and stages here - The Problem
built up over a LONG period, all the way back
to Nixon in some cases.
Senators introduce bill to ban Chinese from buying US land

GOOD to put blocks in them buying USA land.
However they may just start using proxies ...
and that's going to be harder to deal with.
Japan bought lots of US land/properties back
in the 80s. Thing is, Japan is a FRIEND, CHINA
is NOT a friend.
And the "Death to the West" Saudi princes ARE?
