It is the anglo tradition to force their inferior products at gunpoint, from british imperialists to american vulture funds. Free trade has proven the anglo culture lacks competitive innovation in much the same way their mouthpieces tried to claim that Chinese and Asians couldn't innovate, and that outside of an environment where they control all the capital, they lose every single time.

The planet can't handle another Cold War, so the sooner these confrontations die down, the better. Unfortunately, the majority still can't grasp the reality of the situation though so we still have witless warmongerer populists in power everywhere.
This is the Hippie in me speaking, but less weapon procurements and more investments in the economy/climate change please.
Putin must be happy that JD and Trump will win the election. There goes your funding for Ukraine.
Yeah, he initiated the Ukraine Conflict by supplying arms to Ukraine and when he won he will let Europe pay for it.
Aside from tariffs, Trump now seems to have a knee jerk visceral reaction to oppose anything environmentally friendly as he now associates anything green to left wing liberals. He has talked about rolling back environmental regulations, EV and battery subsidies, and fuel standards. Thing is...US businesses don't really want him to do that as it would make their products uncompetitive around the world. So while the rest of the world is trying to prepare for or positioning to lead the new world of green tech because it also makes business sense, a Trump administration would be trying to turn back the clock and reverse at full speed back to the 1950's.
On the green tech question, given the choice of planetary destruction vs New Energy Tech led by China, I'm 100% certain the anglo/american world will choose destruction. All this talk of transition to EV and Green Energy will fall, and IMO is already falling to the wayside if the Anglo/American world deems it necessary to confront China.
So, IMO its more about ideological imperative than who's currently in charge of the government and that doesn't care about who's in charge.
I'd say even though adoption is still quite high in places like Europe, the slowdown has to do as much with the China question as "consumer demand". See, the current tariffs and those to come yet against Chinese NEVs. I agree, soon the biggest adopters of Green energy/NEVs won't be the "green" Europe but the developing world, as its a means to wean themselves away from Petrodollar.
Who taught this guy economics? People inside the US would have to pay more for services and goods, not less, so things may be cheaper to export, people will starve because of it. I guess the US is now bracing for poverty instead of fixing their policies. No reverse gear.
Joe Biden: I received a request from the Saudis - they are ready to fully recognize Israel if we provide them with defense guarantees and allow them to create a civilian nuclear facility.
Is he making this up?

Poland has long anticipated a possible Trump win, knowing that American support is here one day and done the next. They now planning on spending 5% of its GDP on defense.
