So Trump got what he wanted – fawning world leaders licking his arse. I am reminded of an ancient Chinese curse “May your life be interesting”. So todays comments:
- Treasury stocks are held by China in vast amounts (estimate $759 billion) which means they have more aces in their hand if we are playing poker? If China sells off I guess the lack of confidence will hit America hard? And I am being ignorant here, but if China does not buy bonds to compensate for trade deficit (which will not happen overnight!). The dollar will therefore weaken and lessen the value of American exports (thus undermining ability of their own industry to survive).
- Basically she just wants people to kiss his arse – as he has said. But does a bully understand this?
- Trump is unable to control the USA economy like China does.
- Smuggling – surely the 5525m plus borders the USA has with Canada and Mexico will enable smuggling to proliferate. Can I invest in these gangs?
- Trump said he would end the war in Ukraine – Russia is on the offensive! Putin treats him like a mug!
- Trump said he would end the wariness Gaza – Israel is destroying what is left and planning to take over control.
