Who would have thought that playing nice with other countries would be beneficial.

  • China is also selling a lot of cars and smartphones in Southwest Asia. This market was exceptional in the past as US car makers did very well in unlike elsewhere in the world. Ford still sells Expeditions and GM sells Tahoes and Yukons, but nothing like in the past. GM dropped from the top 10 and Ford’s best selling cars are made in China.

    Trump is not the reason for China’s ascendancy and America’s decline, he’s just the (well paid and fully willing, ofc) scapegoat handpicked to supervise and sell the restructuring of America as a regional power, one that relies much more on local blood, sweat and tears than foreign, to Americans. Corruption killed the empire, and money folk with global interests are more than happy to manage the corpse because there’s still money to be made from it, they don’t care about their nation even if they were born there, because they don’t care about people. The American capitalist overlords don’t care where their slave base is as long as they can easily control it!

    Trump really was chosen by God to win the election as part of a larger divine plan to destroy the United States.

    I thought the promised plan of making things great again was returning to American isolationism. So seems to be going as planned.
