Trump should grab that socialist sow by the scruff and ask her if she brought her checkbook...demand full payment of Germany’s NATO dues.

Better yet, announce we’re pulling out of NATO and that Pootie-Poot can have them. :-)

murkul should never have gone into public office. She is totally unfit for it. Of course, Trump is going to negotiate and get whatever he can for the USA, while murkul is going to put on an unhappy face and pout.

Like I’ve told you a million times we’ve been in a trade war for 30 years you dolt. This is nothing new except we may actually fight back.

Yes, you have told us that at least a million times.

Ok, so your position that before the year 2017 AD there was no trade war going on between the USA and the rest of the world? is that your stated position?

I don't believe I've stated an opinion.

Open your markets wide and unencumbered to ALL U.S. goods or our market closes to you. Our market constitutes 25% of all economic activity and is your largest trading partner, IE: Customer.

America is everyone’s largest customer. The customer, in the long run, has all the power. He can always chose not to buy. Trump just told them to open their markets or we stop buying.

Trump has the upper hand. We run massive trade deficits. We can and will easily weather a trade war as we will find that lots and lots of American companies will be happy to open local manufacturing facilities to supply the newly increased and wealthier work force with the junk we are presently importing from China, Canada, Mexico & the EU.

Amen.

Oh, and our UN contribution should be slashed as well. Why do we have to pay far more than the other veto wielding members? I’d be happy to kick the UN headquarters out of our country too.

They’ve had lots of G7 summits during a trade war before this one. Of course, the press didn’t call it a “trade war” when the previous left-wing president(s) were surrendering on the trade front.

The UN should fall. Its responsibility for the rise of Islamic terror, never mind its blatant support for world communism (its charter is a clone of the 1936 USSR constitution), needs to meet its due punishment.

Do we do the same for their goods?

Re-read my previous post.

This trade war has been raging for some years now. The prior presidents, especially Obama, did not fight back. Trump is the first to fight back.

Yeah, that's what they all said before Davos, too. Trump was treated like a rock star.

“I’d be happy to kick the UN headquarters out of our country too.”

And right now these “rug riders,” “elephant humpers,” and “goat jumpers,” are angling for the US to essentially build them a “new HQ” in NYC on our dime because the current UN HQ “is too old and inadequate” for them. I've seen numbers north of $5 billion for same. It's the “right time” to tell the UN that it needs to move “closer to it's center of thinking,” which means moving it to Qatar or some other Arab luxo-$hithole. Let them try to get out of parking tickets somewhere else.
