If I was living quietly and happily and someone wanted to evict me from my own home, I'd get upset too. That other presidents wanted to do something does not make Mr Trump right. His reasoning is specious. He is no better than Putin, who also uses false premises to attack Ukraine.

What people do with their own country is their own business. Decent people do not resort to bullying and blackmail to get their own way. Mr Trump is acting like a petulant toddler who can't get his own way.

Mr Trump has done some very good things. But he risks ruining his legacy. That's a shame. People are far more likely to remember the bad than the good. Hitler did some good things such as the best road system in Europe. That counts for nothing when people think of him.
I wanted to like this so bad until you said hitler did some good things.:censored::)
 
Trump tried to buy Greenland, they said no. They are refusing to let go of Greenland to the point their will be blood shed. Because they refused to sell the Greenland, that means we are better without it. If we take Greenland, it's going to be a curse to us. It was for our good they refused to sell Greenland. For some unknown reason, having Greenland will give us problems that it's not worth having. When a deal like this happens, know that it's for your good. 'years of observation and suffering'. 'It comes from knowing God.'

Nobody knows. They meet tomorrow. They will make a deal.

I said that he did some good things. I did not say that he was good. Hardly a soul remembers the good that Hitler did. And that may well be the fate of Mr D. Trump.

Hitler prevented the Communists from taking over Germany. He restored Germany's economy, improving the lives of most Germans. He created the autobahn which is still the best road system in Europe. No one talks about that these days. I doubt that history will remember Mr Trump's positive achievements either. People have short memories.
 
'The leader of Canada and China shake hands, then they both turn slowly to the camera, and then smile.'
 
I think we’ll see Republicans starting to jump ship soon to avoid the “Nuremberg trials” that will follow after the Trump era.
 
Are they going to strengthen our Economy, or weaken it?

Are they going to drive up the cost of pretty much everything?

IMO, they are going to end up hurting the average person. Especially low income people/families. There is no way the Manufacturers are going to "eat the rising cost" of producing their product(s). They are going to do what they always do, PASS IT ON!

Honestly, I do not understand Trumps thinking on this. Tariffs never help in the way those imposing them want. Buckle up and start cutting Coupons now..... sigh ...........


so you are OK with other nations putting 50% and 100% tariffs on American goods,
What Trump is doing causes nations to drop their tariffs so we can export to them
