Trump Weaponizing Trade, Is An Act Of War, Under International Law.

Trump is the most powerless president in American history. The US is in an economic straight jacket they put themselves in, trying to control world trade.

US President Donald Trump definitely has dementia. He is having flashbacks to the times of manifest destiny and the Monroe doctrine. He is having visions of an imperial America that no longer exists. The beginning of the end of the American Empire began with the US losing the Korean War. By losing I mean the US froze the Korean conflict and then spent the American people’s national treasure on propping up a fake South Korean government, completely dependent and controlled by Washington. The US has done nothing but waste national treasure on imperialist adventures to dominate world trade. The Korean War was to ensure that America controlled Asian trade routes via sea lanes, after the Communists won the Chinese civil war.

Like, in the case of Korea, it will be China to the rescue. Trump is handing Colombia to China and the BRICS with his childish demands. I can see the looks on the faces of his cracker followers as Mexico and now Colombia refuse deportation flights on US military transports. I can just see Trump’s reaction to Mexico and Colombia disciplining the petulant child. President Trump, in grand, senile reactionary behaviour, takes his American market and goes home, when he can’t get his way. It’s simply the dumbest approach to America’s present day trade crisis. The quality of American goods, exported to the world, has collapsed as a result of people like Trump raising the rent, and taking the incentive out of work, which is savings. If the average Joe or Josephine can’t save money to buy a house, they become demoralized and begin to hate their bosses and their landlords.

America’s trade crisis will only get worse if Trump does not lower the rent, which he never talks about. Trump, like Biden is hiding the fact that the US is in recession and has been for decades and the one metric that proves this is America’s trade deficit. Mostly created by the US moving factory jobs offshore. China was going to do what China was going to do regardless of the US setting up shop in China, for cheap labour and zero environmental regulations. After America created a thirty percent cancer rate polluting China, China’s attitude toward the US changed. Now China will bail out Colombia and likely Canada as well. I always like to remind Americans that it was Canada that opened up trade with Communist China first, not Nixon and Kissinger. Go look at the Chinese film footage of when Chairman Mao invited Nixon and Kissinger to the Beijing Opera. You will see Mao honouring Canada for opening trade with China. Canada will nationalize US owned businesses in Canada and sell to China and India.

This is when the US should be speaking in all tongues, to build new trade relations in the new world, multipolar order. Just think Donald, all that treasure wasted trying to rule the world, can be spent at home in America repairing the quality of American goods for export by repairing American’s relationship with American workers. And the first thing you can do Donald, is lower the rent for the America worker, so they can save. Having lived and worked in the US for thirty years, I watch while people like Trump dismantled a reasonably stable economy by ending rent control, the only serious device preventing the grotesque profiteering American renters are subject too. You want to fix things Donald, fix that and every American will thank you. If you gave back the average Joe or Josephine, their buying power the rent has stolen, every domestic American business would flourish. Even idiots like you Donald, will likely do better.

Blaming America’s self made problems on all the nations the US has traditionally robbed of national treasure, for robbing America is cute Trump but being the idiot that alienates the entire world won’t save the American economy. Only by investing in the American people, instead of cannibalizing the workers for profit, can the US become a creative manufacturer and exporter. I have worked along side American tradesmen and have manufactured in the US, a US designed product we could still export to the world but Trump is picking really big trade fights, making people like me reluctant to help the US expand their trade.

All Colombia has to do is invite the Chinese to finance a couple of infrastructure projects in Colombia, to absorb the economic recession created by the 25% tariff Trump is slapping on Colombian goods imported into the US. China just completed middle classing 93% of 1.2 Billion people. Does anyone think that 12 billion dollars of Colombian goods won’t instantly vanish into the Chinese market? Hell, the Chinese people will buy Colombian goods just to piss Trump off. Americans are ranked around twentieth in math, world wide. China just produced a public with so much buying power, Trump should be begging China for help. To return the American worker’s buying power back and past America’s traditional mistreatment of workers. The US can not live on billionaires alone. The American worker must be able to save at least twenty percent of their income, just as a starting point. If I were Trump, I would go for Gaddafi’s model, heap the national treasure, on the American public.

I will even help you, by opening up the diamond field I discovered on Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard, traditionally Wampanoag tribal lands. It is the largest diamond field found, in America. The US can bank on this diamond field, for international trade but Trump has signed and executive order allowing the US government to deport non citizens critical of the state of Israel’s genocide in Gaza. If I enter the US, from Canada, even though I am married to an American and have America children and grandchildren, I can be deported at will. I am very comfortable with my Canadian passport, thank you very much, Mr.Trump and I have no intention of becoming an American citizen. The very people the US needs to save America, Trump is deporting. It’s the senility of a nearly, eighty year old president. That’s the only explanation.
