Know how Trump operates this is a very bad move. Concessions only embolden him, and he will push for more until there is nothing more to concede. Say what you want about the Canucks but at least they are unified and fighting back.
Trump's "international racketeering" might generate some
upside for a Texan like yourself assuming you are domiciled in the US, at least part of the time, and/or happen to be the beneficiary of tax liable assets located in the US, and/or otherwise happen to be an US taxpayer in some form or capacity.
To be fair, it makes sense for Uncle Sam to want to collect what he believe he is owed as the "monopoly on violence" within his hegemonic domain even if we're to jokingly frame it as
racketeering or
extortion. Taxing colonial entities is nothing new, and if anything, it is an essential tradition of
mercantilism.
Don't slander Comrade Trump!
We are making history here. First European slave country in modern times! Winning bigly!
Every move he makes is as majestic as the sun, every executive order he signs lets rivers of ink fly through the world. Every sneeze of his, produces tremendous wind energy for eons
One word, one order, and we got our first slave state. Tremendous!
Onwards Mr. President, onwards!
Promises made, promises kept. He said it and he kept his word:
"And you'll say, 'Please, please. It's too much winning. We can't take it anymore. Mr. President, it's too much.' "
Slava Ukraine!
All Hail President-for-Life, the Glorious Prophet and Messenger of the Father and the Son, a Blessing by our Lord and Savior, the First of His Name, Pro-Consul Donald John Trump!
Ukranie was historically where the word for “slave” came from.
i foresee Soviet Russia for you, America. Now keep pushing money into that military industrial complex, yeah!
Not trying to get comrade
@tygyg1111 or anyone else in particular excited, but
is roughly what several of my "more entrepreneurial" contacts envision to be a
prototype "wife farm" for addressing China's ongoing gender imbalance and long-term TFR challenges.
In case anyone is wondering, said contacts envision
to be the
production model "wife farm."
How about we (China and Israel) continue to have little to no people to people exchanges as we don't want their barbarian behavior anywhere near us. And Israel can continue to send us intel on America in exchange for not getting turbofucked by a bunch of swarthy Islamic fighters.
For all China cares, Israel can have the whole levant, as long as they help us with spying/being subversive on US. With the Ukraine gambit, China has secured all future oil/hydrocarbons needs. The real "oil" that makes the world go round is electronics and industrial goods. Those are not found in the middle east, but only in Asia. Asia should be where China has its main interests, whoever has undisputed rule of Asia also controls those critical supplies, and therefore rules the whole world.
This is absolutely
shocking!
As I hope you know, here in these United States, Israel is almost
universally known as and recognized to be
America's greatest ally™ in the Middle East in particular and on planet Earth in general:
In fact, even the most
diverse™ of America's (formerly) leading political figures consider Israel an
imperative to America's national security:
I hear Israel allegedly ToT'd China American fighter technology originating from General Dynamic's OG F-16 by way of the Lavi program which supposedly yielded the J-10 in 1998, and the Chinese obviously benefitted from Israeli ToTs of the Harpy anti-radiation OWA drone and Python-3 AAM, nevermind Israel's failed attempt to deliver the Phalcon AEW&C to the PLAAF in 2000, however, it remains
extremely difficult to believe that elected American officials,
entrusted by American voters and the nation at large, would
dare lie to the American public about
America's greatest ally™!
