U.S. Politics

[Martin Weidmann]

The market is rebounding and Trump is winning cases in court exposing radical judges. U-S-A, U-S-A.  "Europe" is begging for a trade deal but Trump hasn't had time for them since they are far down his priority list.  Canada has sided with China even though we pay for their national defense.  A terrible decision that will ruin their economy.

Trump did Europe and China a massive favor by, rather stupidly, adding another 50% of tariffs on China. Europe was already China's biggest trade partner and the EU and China are now already negotiating a deal that leaves the US out of the loop completely. The Chinese are not going to move their manufacturing to the US as Trump wants. Instead, they are just going to sell additional goods to the EU which will flood the market and thus cause lower prices, while at the same time selling less to the US at double the original price, causing massive inflation and angry consumers.

Canada is also already talking to the EU about an increase in trade and in the EU more and more people are considering boycotting the US in the same way Canada is already doing. German, Dutch and French TV is pushing for a full boycott and people are massively changing their holiday bookings from the US to other countries, in much the same way the Canadians are already doing. That's the price of misplaced arrogance!

Trump is making the same mistake that the UK made with Brexit. They figured that the EU needed them more than that they needed to EU and they found out the hard way that they were wrong.

The longer this BS continues, the more the US will be isolated from the rest of the world and will pay the price for it!

Martin must be living on some island that has only MSNBC ,CNN and the BBC
I switched to watching Fox News and Alex Jones since about 2012 when Obama showed his true intentions by signing that 2012 NDAA expanding the Patriot Act. And that harassment of Cliven Bundy was what convinced me the Democrat Party was no longer the part for me.

I would like to think I’m still an objective critical thinker, and judging from Martins criticisms of the WC report, I think he is capable of critical thinking too.
At some point in time, before Obama, I would bet that Martin and I were on the same page watching MSNBC challenging the GW Bush admin and that whole “weapons of Mass destruction”  BS, as well as the 911 narrative, and noting the Fox News bias continually defending that ridiculous narrative.

I’m sorry that Martin has such a complete opposite observation about Trump than I do at this point in time. Maybe I’m being fooled by Alex Jones and Fox News, or Martin is being misled by BBC, CNN, and MSNBC.  I guess time will tell which of these various news sources were closer to the truth.

"Former" KGB officer Vladimir Putin highly recommends your "news" sources and is jumping for joy that you've been so thoroughly zombified by them.

  The Putin/Trump stuff is right in line with Greer shooting JFK. Just to let you guys know the crowd you're hangin' with.

Hey, Storing.

Don't you believe Trump was "spotted" by a KGB-connected Manhattan TV store owner by the name of Semyon Kislin in 1980, and that he (The Traitorous Orange Bird) started laundering money for Russian mafiosos like David Bogatin in 1984?

Hi Zeon,

I don't watch anything on TV as I don't have the time for it. I use YouTube to provide me with clips from a wide range of outlets, including Fox, MSNBC , BBC, European stations and independent outlets like Midas Touch and it's obvious to me that every station has it's own agenda.

If you don't understand that Trump is destroying the country, there is not much I can tell you. Are you even aware that Canada and China are both negotiating with the EU to increase trade between them? I haven't seen it being covered on any of the US stations, but it is indeed happening. And are you aware that China has declared that it will never give in to Trump? If you only watch Fox and Alex Jones you will never get this kind of information. Perhaps you should try to find a better balance in your sources of information.

    Joe 6 Pack does NOT Pay a "tariff" until such time as he/she actually PURCHASES/$$ a Foreign product. You do NOT want to pay a "tariff"? Do NOT buy a foreign made product. Very simple. So exactly what Products are we looking at that are subject to Trump "Tariffs"?  Maple Syrup from Canada? We have Maple Syrup made right here inside the USA. Lumber? Plenty of trees = lumber inside the USA. Shoes? Notably from China courtesy of their slave labor work force. Can Joe 6 Pack go without another pair of "Air Jordans", even if this puts a dent in the China propaganda arm = NBA? Can do!

Well, one thing is for sure, Canada can go without US goods, as they are already proving it. If the US has enough lumber to build houses, why have they been buying the bulk of what they need from Canada? And why do entire areas of the US rely on electricity from Canada? And what about the Canadians who are massively canceling their holidays in the US? And it gets worse, the Europeans are talking about doing the same.

Except for some extreme cultmembers, I seriously doubt there will be many Americans who are willing to go without certain goods and pay much more for other goods just to please the orange leader.
There will be more mass demonstrations and the crowds will only grow.
