Your debt is created by you. We had a reciprocal trade deal with you, you have a positive balance of trade with Australia. Stop trying to revise history

What's important is showing a kleptomaniac murderer like Putin he can't win, and needs to back off. You don't seem too worried about carbon emissions, going by your number of posts on this thread.

They'll have clear water to sail through quite soon. Trump's environmental policies will see to that.

It takes 5-7 years on average to develop a mine. After another 4 years of Trump and Musk, Americans will have many other things to think about, such as how they are going to feed themselves.

With America as an ally, you may be right. FYI, Australia has some of the richest deposits of lithium and rare earths on the planet. Enjoy your trip into irrelevance.

America has a positive trade balance with Australia. We have spent our blood and treasure supporting you in many of your wars. Most American goods enter Australia duty free. You are the ingrates. Here's an idea. Why don't you take your spy bases and military bases in Australia, and <deleted> off. We are tired of making ourselves a nuclear target for you. I'm sure your intelligence apparatus won't mind losing half its surveillance capabilities. You want to isolate yourselves, right?

Oh yes it would. Europe makes many of the high-end processors at the cutting edge of AI. The Large Hadron Collider is located near Geneva. If you had a CAT scan for any cancers or other ailments, the odds are pretty good the scanner was made in Europe, most notably by Siemens and Philips. America embracing isolationism is nothing new. However, Chinese advances such as DeepSeek and in nuclear fusion illustrate taking that path leads to irrelevance. IMO Trump's policies are going to put the US into deep recession, and he will probably take the rest of the world with him. Not that he will care, empathy is not in the skill set of sociopaths. Run that past me again, didn't Trump say he would end the war in Ukraine in a day?

QED

Your inferiority complex is showing. Did you make it out of primary school? Your insults are at that level.

I suggest you either take a look at the homeless in America, or get back to your bong.

Like Trump and Vance, Mercs are overrated.

I probably would let it pass, because most Thais have no idea of European history. OTOH, you are one of the nastiest and most offensive posters on ASEAN, so you get no pass from me.

Remember when Trump said " I don't care about you, I just want your vote"? A new national sport for Americans, getting tossed under a bus.

Australia has stood by America in all the wars the USA has fought. Our money and lives have been spent on those wars. To be hit with 25% tariffs when America has a positive balance of trade is the ultimate insult to an ally. The USA is not even as trustworthy as a used car salesman. We would probably be better off with the Chinese.

IMO he's added a one to both numbers.

Trump demonstrated how weak he is, by having Vance along as his side-kick in a two on one. Zelensky was supposed to kiss Trump's butt. Trump threw his toys out of the pram when he didn't. Zelensky is a statesman, Trump and Vance never will be.

No woman's pussy is worth $100 million, although I suppose there are a few ex-wives of billionaires who beg to differ.

I don't think it matters at all. The vagina can stretch to 200% of normal volume, unless someone has a cock the size of a horse Thai women can accommodate most men. Having said that, I do think Thai women for me are a tighter fit than Western women. YMMV.

You are a perfect dick? Why am I not surprised?

The world saw inflation spike in 1973 with OPEC. Another hit came in 1979. By then, US steel production was in free fall. Instead of posting a 3-word opinion which has the same value as a dog turd, why don't you come up with some facts which actually rebut what the guy is saying?

Newsom in California is giving a state rebate of $7500, to compensate for the rebate axed by the federal government on EV's. However, the state rebate does not apply to Teslas. Battle lines are being drawn.

OP, please avoid walking under any trees. I want to be spared a tirade post about how the birds crapped on you, thereby displaying good judgment.

Viruses are quite visible with a Scanning Electron Microscope. The flu and corona viruses are distinguishable, based on their morphology. Perhaps I should remind you of the Dilbert aphorism: " Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level, and beat you with experience".

An explanation of what happened to the American dream.

Given he's confused Nancy Pelosi with Nick Haley, and Biden with Obama, not hard to believe he confused Zelensky with Putin.
