President Trump 2.0: The NEW one and only politics thread

Only Trump would start a trade war and expect the other side not to shoot back.

 

Because he thinks he rules the world, and that what he says, goes.

 

Wall Street is simply flabbergasted that Trump is wrecking the economy

Who could have guessed this would happen?

Which no doubt also explains why he thinks he can walk into Ottawa or Nuuk unopposed. But the question is why he wants to be there?

Also: Has he given up on taking back the Panama Canal?

 

There is also the belief that if the shutdown happens they just won't restart things, like the department of education, when they come to agreement. By keeping things going, they can't just chop everything without the legal hurdles and court rulings.

 

To answer your question, no.

The White House has asked the United States military to draw up plans for how it might seize the Panama Canal “by force,” a bombshell report revealed Thursday.

The alleged directive comes a week after President Donald Trump told lawmakers in his joint address to Congress he would be “reclaiming” the vital waterway to “further enhance our national security.”

Using troops to seize the canal is considered a “less likely” option being weighed by the White House, unnamed officials told NBC News, but is apparently not off the table.

The network reported that “how much the Panamanian military agrees to partner with the U.S.” will determine whether military action will be taken.

This man is just unbelievable. It's like, who can we fuck around with next? Whoever it is, let's do it!

 

Schumer is thinking too much. Did he even negotiate? Seriously, if Lee and Paul (and others) get to play their "principles" card and vote no, I'd like to think enough Dems would have a few tucked away for safe keeping and play theirs as well.

 

Democratic Rep. Raúl Grijalva of Arizona dies at 77

Second Dem Rep. to die in the last 10 days. RIP to a guy who fought the fight, but my goodness the Dems need to start cleaning house. If Lefties are really trying to figure out what they can do to stop Trump they should start announcing primary challenges and fundraising right now. Give some of those who trying to hold on a little encouragement to leave, or at least find their own successor.
