Friend, if you think Singapore is just like China, it’s painfully clear you have no experience with either of them. So either you’ve never been, never had any experience with Singaporeans, or you’re so incredibly stupid you cannot discern between the massive differences in culture, government, language, food, wealth, and on and on.

I refuse to believe you’re that stupid. And that’s saying something.

You should spend time educating yourself from legitimate sources.

Despite their small size they're an important ally in the region

You do realize that trade policy and foreign policy are linked right?

Their per capita GDP is slightly higher than ours

It's disappointing the level of ignorance by so many people

I agree. Kind of like saying they’re going to end trade relations with the US.

I think it is you missing the point. The Prime Minister of Asian city/state is making a statement his country will just no longer engage in trade with the United States.

You thought this shocking enough to start a thread about it.

You just admitted you don't know what we import or export to Singapore.

Politicians say things. They want to appear they have a position of strength when negotiating trade deals.

And here we are. Your hatred from Trump is making you think Singapore should control our trade strategy.

Grow up.

Because you seem to imply that being ethnically Chinese predisposes Singaporeans to be sympathetic to PRC. That is just not the case.
You can literally buy tee shirts in Boat Quay mocking Tom Cotton for believing this.

You forgot the obvious example: Taiwan. They actually ARE Chinese.

Hell, they're China.
depending on who you ask Taiwanese are to China kinda like what Cajuns are to France.

Other countries are reconsidering their relationship with us. If we become isolationists we'll become increasingly irrelevant on the global scene. This has potentially long term negative consequences. Trump is taking a massive gamble with the future of the country. Whatever good intentions he has aren't anywhere near being guaranteed to be actual outcomes.

Can you least acknowledge that it's a huge gamble?
