Why is Trump publicly calling out Canada, Mexico, Greenland and Panama Canal? Didnt he campaign on confronting China? Come on Trump

[DigitalDrifter]

Who said they would? In fact, nobody wants them to.

You dembots really don’t get it

Why wouldn't we want them to?
I want them to, but obviously it will never happen.

I’d prefer they simply honor the treaty

The treaty has already been trashed by virtue of the Panamanian government selling out to China. Asking the United States to hold up their end of it unilaterally is the same as asking someone to be a complete sucker.

The Carter treaty
How are they in violation?

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Yes. Stupid of me, too, to expect MAGAts to back up their assertions.

I don't know that we should use the word "control", but you are aware however, that a subsidiary of Hong Kong-based CK Hutchison Holdings manages two ports at the canal's entrances, with Chinese firms funding construction of a new bridge over the canal to the tune of over $1 billion, right?

Is that like Elon Musk running NASA. Because he's got the only viable spaceship for the near future, and the only ride to the ISS.

And a good part of that 1 billion is making its way straight into the pockets of Panamanian lawmakers who will gladly bend over, close their eyes and allow China any goddamn thing it wants for as long as that money keeps flowing in. Anyone who doesn't understand that even a vestige of the CCP affiliated with a company is the same as discovering that the company is completely controlled by the CCP... It's just gullible.

Actually yes it's a good parallel.... And yes that is something that could be problematic.

I'd prefer what we had before we gave the ******* thing away in the first place. Another stupid move on our part.

Jimmy Carter as much as he was a really good guy and a very moral man had a very strong dislike for Americanism. He is also a rabid anti-semite. I don't know how much of his mind is left but apparently it's the most liberal parts that survived.

The Carter treaty

Yes, it requires neutrality. They’ve sold out to China

Posts were already done. You reject them.

Assertions aren't evidence. Unless one is a MAGAt who implies investment equals total control.

Or a slack jawed yokel. But I repeat myself.

 

[cnm]

Nope.... Just not a Chinese Communist fan. You?

I'm not at war with China as you are, even though you won't pick up a rifle.

 

[cnm]

Currently the Hong Kong company landbridge controlled by the Chinese Communist party controls ports on both ends of the canal.

So what?

So what? China does not control the Panama Canal, as was intimated by one of the slack jawed yokels.

 

[justoffal]

Demonstrate it, you unbelievable fuckwit.

The information is easy to find Hopsing.
Simply challenging me is not going to cover up the truth. People are aware of what's happening now more than ever especially because they have alternate news sources. People have grown accustomed to having truths called falsehoods and falsehoods called Truth. They're making the adjustment. All of your efforts to do otherwise are simply wasted energy. I understand that your obligated to try..... Just like The Little engine that could. However you will find that your uphill battle is getting steeper and steeper.

Trump was voted in by Americans and even supported by many fiscally minded citizens around the globe because he represented more fiscal restraint/cost cutting a la DOGE, he was going to prevent Americas debt from going off of the cliff, return a global presence of peace through strength to defend key allies such as Taiwan and Japan, defend your border (for which Canada also pays a price as we have fentanyl coming into our country from these same cartels I'm sure) and confronting China so that America remains the Super Power of the world, millions of lives potentially saved.

Now, Mexico I can understand being called out, even the Canal and Greenland as these are key tenets of U.S security. Canada though is receiving more than our fair share of ink due to Trump. Media cares this much about Canada all of a sudden but not 100s of thousands being poisoned by your southern border? Come on maaaan.

If his actions before he takes office is any indication, he has said very little about China and tariffs, but raises the issue with Canada and Mexico and others? Didn't he suggest a 60% tariff on China? They are sending over the precursors to the poisons that have killed countless people in Canada too, that act is responsible for something like 100,000 U.S deaths a year!

Let's hope this isn't a pattern he will maintain after he takes office. Please DJT, stick to your promises. China needs to be confronted about their human right abuses and cheating on trade. All nations can do better but China is by the greatest threat to America and the biggest trade violator.

We'd all like to see peace in the world and we'd all love to see China become a true capitalist nations that supports human rights. This should be where his focus lies, no? To call them out and get them to change and if they do not, than he uses tariffs as a means to equalize the trade abuses.

DJT keep your promises. Canada isn't perfect and we could use some demands to adhere to human rights but we are your ally, for all of our warts.

President Musk has too many interests in China. He doesn't want to mess that up.

So VP Trump will do nothing either.

This is a professionally developed pattern of propaganda speak. It's all too familiar and I see it frequently on many of the major posting boards.

Challenge the source, insult the bringer of the information..... Desperately try to make a tag name stick like dummy, liar, fuckwitt and so forth.

The real question here is why is this person so dead set against the United States taking the Panama canal back? Who is this person? Why does this person appear to have something to lose if the United States gains something? I think I know what the answer is.

Does CMN stand for. China Man Nutcase?

Ah. That was you, wasn't it, implying investment equalled operational control.
Oh well.
Slack jawed yokels will slack jaw yokel.
