Re: The 45th POTUS - Donald J. Trump
why you would talk trash about this on the same day you reopen the entire Pacific to trade negotiations is beyond me. Half the reason for the TPP was because China's trade deal offers were going to allow them to dominate the fastest developing economies.The new U.S. administration of President Donald Trump vowed on Monday that the United States would prevent China from taking over territory in international waters in the South China Sea, something Chinese state media has warned would require Washington to "wage war."

This fantasy that America can have trade deals where we get incredible prices on consumerism goodies and resources AND get to sell our own high end goods without tax or tariff AND all the new jobs go to Americans is baffling to me.
