Panama.

Art of The Deal


I have that album. I used to listen to that song while high on pot. That was a couple of years before the drug caused cannabis-induced derealization disorder.
Marijuana is a dangerous drug. It’s the new asbestos.
Potheads are mostly addicted deniers.
 
It is not at all difficult to imagine a chain of events in which the U.S. invokes some provision of the treaty by which the Canal was given to Panama, asserting a right to take over control.

Furthermore, it is not difficult to imagine the U.S. and Panama negotiating a peaceful reorganization of the Canal's management and finances that gives the U.S. more control at the same time as it invests money in resolving the long-term water problem - a problem that Panama lacks the resources to solve. (Alternatively, it is not difficult to imagine a proposal from China to finance and build the needed infrastructure improvements in exchange for "certain considerations" from Panama).

The Bottom Line is that The Donald sees this as an important measure to stabilize traffic through the Canal, which benefits not only the U.S. but almost everyone else at the same time.

No Democrat could even conceive of this initiative.
 
You never present any evidence for the things you say yet you ask for it from everyone and when they provide it you change the subject rather than admit you made a mistake... that's like a child... and debating people like you is a worthless cause...
In debate class you would get a failing grade for that...
You need an excuse to avoid actually discussion the issue. This is the story you tell yourself the accomplish this goal.

Remember, all I did was ask your source for your claim. Everything after that was your desperate attempt to avoid doing so.

What kind of grade would you give that kind of debater?

I'll discuss anything... but you never accept anyone's source... so you go on my goalpost mover list... sorry..... but you are in good company with the other trolls from the left....
 
Trump appears to be trying to force lower tolls on American goods.

He also sees China investing heavily there to try and gain eventual control.

The Panama Canal is a STRATEGIC CHOKE POINT OF TRADE. And vital to shipping into the Atlantic

No. The shippers are NOT US Companies.

Multiple alternatives and now we have the Northwest Passage.
 
Where is problem when the US becomes owner of the Canal?
The problem is that it resurrects the words of USMC General Smedley Butler from a century ago, about the time the canal was constructed. Trump's rhetoric shows what many already knew, that the US Government is the Ugly Gringo del Norte, a bully that shows no respect at all to South and Central American countries.
 

Great to see Panama's President and China's Foreign Minister stand up to Trump over the Canal. The dumb ass knows about as much of running a canal as he does running a country.

A total Loon! Bigly!!!
The US built the damn canal. If we have adversaries who are plotting against us, we should not let them use the very canal that WE built.

Of course, commie asswipe wants China to control the canal America built.


You leftoids really are anti-American, Chinese communist loving pricks.

And I will ask you then, you want to invade Panama and make it a state? What about the Russian influenced nations of Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Cuba? What about Canada and Brazil?

This is waaaay too complex for the anti-Trumpers. The most complex thought they're capable of is, "Trump...bad".

I just think that sources should actually say what you claim they say.

Maybe the problem isn’t us, maybe you’re just a dupe for right wing media.
