So, President Trump decided to stop trading with China and many other countries. Then, those countries decided for a face to face talk and buddy buddy with Putnum, Russia. These countries where already on Russia side, which means they where already enemies of the US & Ukraine, Israel.

People are hurting the economy right now saying, 'inflation', 'depression' (they are refusing to trade.). But I think Trump knows more about this than anyone citizen out there, because Trump listens and gets advise from the American advisors, the tacticians, the smartest people in the US.

If Putnum gets what he's after and fighting very hard to do, then do you know what is going to happen to us?

Unfortunately, that's a very misinformed idea. Donald doesn't listen to anyone; he follows his own instincts, which are usually wrong. His long string of bankruptcies and failed businesses testify to this. If you just look at what he's done since he's been in office, it's clear he doesn't know what he's doing.

His followers are enamored with the Trump myth, not the Trump reality; with what he says he's done and will do, not what he's actually done. For example, he keeps saying others countries are paying tariffs and people cheer; but other countries don't pay tariffs, we do. And he keeps saying we're saving a trillion dollars by not buying anything from China. That's just dumb. We aren't just giving China a trillion dollars, were getting a trillion dollars of goods in return, which is good for the US economy.

I don't want to see him fail; I hope he will do something productive in spite of himself. But so far everything he's done has been pretty disastrous. He seems to be bent on destroying our democracy and replacing it with an all-powerful presidency.

These people are called liberals and provide a lot of entertainment during an already exciting time.
They're confused by default because they can't even tell what a woman is.

I, for a sampling of one-- am converting cash into the markets as of now. Trump is lining up trade deals left and right-- the latest being a TRILLION dollar investment by Saudi Arabia. The UK was the first deal finalized and announced, China will be faling in line and coming soon.

I have to disagree with that statement.

In meetings with Putin, Trump’s envoy relied on the Kremlin’s interpreter


The Washington Post reported in 2019, for example, that Donald Trump had gone to “extraordinary lengths to conceal details of his conversations” with Putin, at one point even “taking possession” of his own interpreter’s notes after a conversation with the Russian leader.

President Donald Trump’s special envoy broke with long-standing protocol by not employing his own interpreter during three high-level meetings with Russia’s Vladimir Putin, opting instead to rely on translators from the Kremlin.

So what happened? Donald promised the tariffs would work magic and make the US wealthy again. Income tax would be eliminated; manufacturing would return to the US; US dominance would return and we'd stop being "taken advantage of." So if that's the case, why capitulate to China? Why did he blink? He proudly announced a "great deal" with China, which isn't really a deal at all but a pause and a reversal of his own policy which was supposed to be so good for the country.

The best explanation I can see is he's once again manipulating the stock market for his own benefit and for the benefit of the wealthy. Just a couple of days before his meeting with China, he again announced "you better go out and buy stock now."
