NATO nations deploy to Greenland after tense White House talks!!!

That’s the point of tariffs. Make US manufacturing competitive again.

It will take many years, if not decades to correct. But 50+ years of terrible trade policy with China cannot be fixed overnight.
On the other hand, I suggest we have a trade surplus with China because we impose effectively no tariffs at all on our citizens purchasing imported goods.
 
I think it's more of a knee jerk reaction by people who aren't capable of seeing the big picture. Things aren't always as they seem and these people are ill equipped to understand Trump's negotiating nuances.

Ah yes, "Trump's negotiating nuances".... just like a bull's negotiating nuances when in a china shop.

What do you think Trump wants?

He's destroying the relationships the US has, he's making everyone wary of the US. The US can't project world power without other countries. He can't invade Iran without the help of other countries. And yet he's making them turn away from the US.

He's now threated tariffs on anyone who disagrees with him on Greenland. He's throwing tariffs around on anyone who disagrees with him on Iran, and the US has the World Cup coming up but every country could end up being banned from the US by then too.

Trump might think he's being smart, because on the business world you can bully. But in international politics, you can't just bully everyone. They might just snap and say "forget it, we're not bothered about you any more".
 
Is that a MAGAt way of whining China has a $1 trillion trade surplus with the world because the US doesn't make anything any more?

Complete disclosure, we have a trade surplus with China. Perhaps the US should sharpen up its act.
Is your middle name Stupid? US will always have a trade deficit with China because of 1) Americans like cheap goods but don’t want to pay high prices, 2) government regulations made it difficult to do business, see why so many companies are leaving CA, and 3) US probably has more disposable income than any country in the world.

Trump is trying to close the widening gap which has been widening every year for the last 30 years.
 
I thought that most folks want to be American citizens.

To be a good AMERICAN you need to NOT HATE people who do not think exactly like you.
Not necessary to agree or like the different opinions. But fun to work together with a mix of ideas.
What a dull and uncreative place this would be. filled with conforming robots.
 
OMFG I heard 34 showed up.

Oh no. Trump just sent 20 soldiers to VZ and they defeated 300 of Maduro's best guards without a casualty.


Well, you can be sure that whatever plans China or Russia had on Greenland has now been boffed by Trump drawing global attention to the matter. Maybe that was his entire intention. Trump has even gotten the EU to defend the island and at their own expense.

Brilliant.
Yeah and, we are already in Greenland at Pituffik Space Base (used to be Thule Air Base). We have missile warning and defense systems there protecting the country from ballistic missiles. (NORAD) The base is a strategic location in the Arctic for monitoring air and space possible attacks. Pituffic is part of a global network of satellite tracking stadions. It monitors objects in orbit.

We might as well just buy the place. We are using it, protecting it and have the technology to mine rare earth where there is receding ice.
 
This is great for Americans.

Now America can be kicked out of NATO.

Glorious.

A few NATO countries have deployed Troops to the island in support of them

European troops from at least seven different NATO countries reportedly began arriving in Greenland on Thursday, acting as a show of support for the autonomous territory of Denmark, and also a not-so-subtle show of defiance toward President Donald Trump.

Funny how no one respects Trump except republicans

The US hasn't always had a trade deficit with China. Yet MAGAts like you whine about it as though you didn't do it to yourselves, willingly.

Your political donor class love themselves some cheap labour.
