"One of the things many patriots like about this President is he does not back down. And he hits back. Every issue he is working on right now needs a better solution, and he is on track to find it."
Okay. The shock is over. The Euro Zone had become very accustomed to having our "Apologist-in-Chief" fly across the pond and sing Kumbaya with the other elite progressives. Now they have to deal with Mr. "Get-R-Done". No more Mr. "Lead from Behind". And guess what? The globalist hate it. They hate him - Donald Trump. The do however, love open borders, surrendering sovereignty, and just plain giving in, and then giving up.
President Trump on the other hand, goes to the Euro Zone to call a spade a spade. He told the NATO members to pay their dues, and quit being deadbeats. He told Germany they were damn fools to be hooked up to the Russian pipeline. Then he told Prime Minister May the way she was handling Brexit was wrong, and it would not work.
In response to the President's truth telling, thousands of pensionaires, unemployed socialists, immigrants, and other misfits crowded the streets of London to protest our President. Then they flew a 20 foot, sophomoric balloon in the skies over London. One which is supposed to be disrespectful to our President. Guess what? I didn't work. He does not care. Sticks and stones. Unlike Obama, he has thicker skin. So, he is now up in Scotland golfing.
Here is a news flash. Even before Trump was President, he had his eye on the ball. He knew what was happening in the Euro Zone, the Middle East, Russia, and China, He knew what needed to be done. Now instead of imagining it - he has the power to do something about it. And is he? Big time!
One of the things many patriots like about this President is he does not back down. And he hits back. Every issue he is working on right now needs a better solution, and he is on track to find it. Trade, dues, North Korea, Iran, China, and on and on. He has said many times he inherited a mess - and he has. He is committed not have his successor say the same thing.
Meanwhile, the globalists, the socialists, the anarchists, the do nothing crowd, despise this man. "A bull in a china shop" or "Unhinged" they chant or cry out. But what he is doing, is tipping over the tables of the ones who don't play fairly. Replacing unfair with fair. Especially where it concerns America. Why? Because using Donald Trump's own words - "I put America first. Just like I expect everybody else to put their country first". Amen sir. That is how fair deals get done.
Just a quick clarification re: Nato
ReplyDeleteIn 2014, before Trump was president, NATO members agreed to stop cutting their military budgets and set a goal of moving “toward” spending 2 percent of their gross domestic product on their own defense — by 2024. It was not a “commitment,” not a direct contribution to NATO, not a payment owed to the U.S., and not something that alliance members pledged to achieve immediately.
NATO does have a shared budget to which each member makes contributions based on the size of its economy. The United States, with the biggest economy, pays the biggest share — 22.1 percent. Four European members — Germany, France, Britain and Italy — combined pay 43.8 percent of the total. The smaller countries pay smaller shares. The funds, totaling about $3 billion this year, are used to run NATO’s headquarters and to pay certain other civilian and military costs. No member is known to be in arrears.
An agreement signed Tuesday between Japan and the European Union eliminated tariffs across a broad range of goods. The deal effectively created a free-trade zone among countries representing a whopping 40% of the global economy.
ReplyDeleteThe pact increases access for Japanese-made autos into the European Union. In Japan, it means agricultural goods and other products from the EU will now become more competitive. In U.S. markets, grain and dairy stocks responded with some of the heaviest losses of the week.
