You really need to see somebody about your unhealthy obsession with all things Trump. You almost make Roger seem like he isnt a psycho, too.

Russia, China, Japan, India… they all have far more to offer us than any European country.
With the Muslim invasion of basically everywhere, these other countries seem to not want that trash.
I’d rather be allied with the countries that will be able to succeed in the upcoming AI boom.

I like Trumps trip to China, sounds like we're going to open up more economically with them.
Of course its everything he campaigned against, but we're better off buying/selling than fighting.

Is this all you have to criticize Trump? It must have been a successful visit then.

Opening up more economic contacts IS what he ran on. With everyone. It's unfair trade he ran against and still does. The two are not connected. Do better.

It was if you like China.

With US securing every energy chokepoint in the world, it is quite fascinating and comedic to hear when others proclaim China has leverage.

You say. I call it not getting screwed by gready countries, corporations and politicians. You try to get the best deal for all not just the top 1%.

Protectionism.
Which is the opposite of free markets.

What country has 100% free markets. Pure free capitalist running things?
You know "free market". The real deal you put forth.

Say it. You compare every short coming in economic systems based in comparison on a unicorn that doesn't exist. You can never be wrong.

You cant make the "Playing field level" regardless of how many times you try.
fricking over your own citizens to try to "level the playing field" is like bombing your own fort to keep the enemy from doing it.

Let’s suppose for the sake of discussion this is correct.
Assuming so, what do YOU think Trump should have done differently to assure this didn’t happen - I guess assuming you think he should have tried to prevent it from happening?

Terrible analogy.
To condense an incredibly complex top to bottom economic system to bombing your own country is silly. Sounds prophetic.
Didn't say, you did about making things "perfect". You set that up as a automatic failure. Easy debate tactic way overused.
