Looks like someone is gunning for a gold citizenship card

Thought he'd kicked the habit to be honest.

Well, it's the day after and let's face it America...

Thinking about this today has just made me feel sick to the stomach. How can a convicted criminal who tried to stage a coup to overturn a democratic election purely for his own self interest be even allowed to run again, never mind win?. The majority of Americans proved yet again what a totally thick, insular and morally bankrupt nation they are. I hope the absolute scumbags that voted for Trump rot in hell. The US now has absolutely no right to lecture any other country about who should or shouldn't be their political leadership.

So already the indication is Trump is going to start a trade war. He'll probably win too be he cares less about ordinary American citizens suffering and in a game of chicken the likes of the EU will blink first.

I'm not so sure about that. The EU is pretty shrewd and unwavering when it comes to trade and also very versatile.

It's probably the one thing within his MO that might be a mistake with the amadáns who vote for him. Everything else is long term pain for short term gain so he can blame the next guy for things going badly.

He'll try to blame the EU / anyone else in the event of a trade war that he starts but it won't resonate with his voters because they don't know what the EU is.

America has enjoyed a lot of support from Europe and the UK with it's anti China and Taiwan agenda. It's huge dependency on Taiwan to produce chips looks like a massive strategic blunder. Let's be honest, America wouldn't tolerate an island off it's coast being such a key military or strategic partner to China or Russia. Cuba is still paying for it today.

Europe needs to get it's **** together militarily so we can tell the likes of Trump to f off when they start **** like this.

The trade war is about stopping affordable electric cars from China hitting westen markets and putting Elon out of business. If America wants to tariff Europe then let's not play ball on China.
