Maybe those other countries would have automatically taken our side. If we hadn’t attacked them on and before Freedom Day. Canada, Japan, South Korea, and the EU have all been shedding American debt. That isn’t a good sign they have our back. Appears they are hedging and prefer to be neutral at best.

You bring so little value to this message board that you don’t even know that it’s hbot.
I guess I’m glad that I can be the one bright spot in your otherwise shitty day. I just wish you had a better life for yourself.
This was about you, singularly. Not about every single Republican because of a choice of one not named you.
Actually I’m not at all a one trick pony. I can make my own opinions and not follow everything my political party says I should do.
Can’t say that about 90% of the people on this board. Talk about a one trick pony.
We'll give those farmers their socialism and they will continue to vote Republican.
I’ve got him worked up. It’s not going to get better. He’s got a job to suck at and not get ahead - and he’ll Iikely be so butt hurt he’s going to post here all night instead of “family time.” So buckle up.
Idk the nostalgia bug seems strong. Get another populist that plays to Trump’s mindset but with a bit more strategy it could be permeant. Cults don’t always die sometimes they find a great opportunist. David Miscavge, Brigham Young.
Folks make fun of JD Vance , but I see some dangerous similarities to the guys I stated.
It’s called capitalism. Wonder if Trump had ever heard of it.
Speaking of glitches. Did you see how you sent two different responses back to back to my one comment?
Everything you posted earlier went right over his head. That's too much reading for MAGA.
Why would any country take our side in the current environment our administration created? (I’m not saying you personally said they would FYI)

It’s a great question. I don’t see why they would.
I could see Europe, Japan, South Korea and Canada forming their own trade block and we end up in a tri-polar world. It was do epically stupid to attack everyone - Brexit on steroids.
Still having troubles I see. Glad you moved on to this topic as there wasn’t a point in getting owned any longer with the other one.
You really think so? Name anyone associated with Trump that has walked away in a better position then when they came into contact with him.

Well no.... we are headed towards higher inflation so not everything will stay the same.
Let me put it like this
If there is a fire in your house that you are working on putting out and I come by and dump gas on it does anything change?
You'd be willing to move on from Trump after he pulls it off? Wow.
Lol you realize higher inflation has been happening the last 5+ years right? That’s why I say things will stay the same.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d prefer we don’t increase the cost of goods but that’s not an option anymore.
Trump has been kicking our century long allies in the balls for months now. I don't know about others, but if someone repeatedly kicked me in the nuts for a few weeks I wouldn't really want to hang out with them.
Reduced impediments to US exports, (tariffs, unfair trade restrictions, or VA taxes),.. This is what I believe Trump is attempting to achieve.
That's beta talk. Is there a scenario where you would support a Trump presidency beyond 2029?
So when he talks about tariffs will bring manufacturing back to the USA, to stop the flow of fentanyl, to stop immigration, to raise revenue, to acquire Canada as the 51st state, that's all just sideshow political talk. What he's really trying to do his reduce impediments to US exports?
Which ones do you think? Which export markets, which tariffs, which unfair trade restrictions, which VA taxes?
Do you think it'd odd that you just have to guess on what Trump is attempting to achieve? We know he's using tariffs to do something, and there's a menu of options to choose from in terms of goals, so everyone just get's to pick the goal off the menu that they like best. I myself like the idea of visiting Canada without a passport, so I think he's going for the real estate acquisition.
Which part of your moral code has to do with who is president? Help make the link between the existence of your morale (sic) code and the presidency.
All of them, and he'll take whatever he can get,.. Because anything he gets will be a move in the right direction.
It was an option. Inflation has been and still is decreasing but that will all change with the tariffs.
Right, silly me, all of them of course!
Do you have reasons for believing this? Hope? Faith? Gut feeling?
One last question, do you feel silly? You've claimed you're not a 3x Trump voter, yet, here you are, trying to rationalize the administration's actions without even knowing what they're trying to achieve.
