  1. In most cases, that's the main explanation....
  2. B.S. Defense is not a prerogative of the EU.
  3. Thank you J.D. for this valuable contribution!
  4. Those who continuously use English words are often unable to speak proper English.
  5. I never said that they hate American people. They tend to like all white people. U.S. as as a nation, that's another story, in particular in relation to U.S. support to Taiwan.
  6. It seems that most of Trump's promises of immediate benefits turn into "it won't be easy".
  7. Musk's strategy was to finance other activities with the cash generated by Tesla. He's in deep <deleted>!
  8. I'm not confusing anything. Of course, there are economic and employment issues post-Covid, as I could observe during my first post-Covid stay last year. However, they are very nationalistic and will rally against the evil America.
  9. No. I have spent around one year in China. The indoctrination starts with enrolling all primary school kids in pioneer organisations and follows during all their studies. I have never met any Chinese who is not anti-American. That includes educated people who have spent part of their studies abroad, and also people with whom I have a personal relationship and who trust me enough to criticize their government during private discussions.
  10. China will not fold. Chinese people have been indoctrinated to be ready to fight a real war, so an economic war is peanuts for them. They will stand it for longer time than American consumers confronted with inflation ( you know, one of the main reasons they voted for Trump). Politically, it's a blessing for the Communist party.
  11. Putin is not holding all the cards. His country is exhausted and the price of energy is decreasing....
  12. Complete B.S. The author of the NYTimes article is a partisan of Milton Friedman who was completely opposed to Keynesianism You don't even know what you are talking about!
  13. Of course! Because there are many Chinese! The U.S. is number one for pollution per capita (excluding oil producers such as Saudi Arabia or the Emirates)
  14. As if Trump could plan anything!
  15. Of course! Who's dumb enough to believe the Trump administration claims!
  16. Said the WH! 🤣
  17. My point is: should we just trust what the WH said in the absence of any detail? Trump's WH? 😆
  18. Which countries?
