  1. Absolutely not, the last thing in the world that Trump wants as an advisor is someone who has a rational mind, and is very well informed, with quite a bit of common sense. Those are qualities to be avoided at all costs.
  2. If AI becomes capable, it will simply generate solutions that mankind will gladly ignore. We already know much of what will be suggested. But, we are too lazy, ignorant or greedy to apply it. Plus, we have terrible leaders worldwide.
  3. And we shudder at the thought of big Don being unhappy. Wait a minute. Isn't that his state of mind day and night?
  4. A voice of reason, in the wilderness of slogans and delusion. Thanks for your rationale. Totally correct. It is all a huge illusion and a massive amount of destruction over what will no doubt turn out to be a Frankensteinian experiment in hubris.
  5. You are a real goofball. Serious men understand criticism is not the equivalent of dislike or hatred. In an open society we discuss things that need to be improved. And yes, the West has gone downhill. Anyone who denies that is living there and caught up in the bubble.
  6. More examples of low quality, or tainted American exports people don't want. Their arrogance acts as a blinder to the real facts. But, truth is not truth, right?
  7. Well, I suppose a smart person can get sucked into the vortex (in the quest for power) of an imbecile and learn to support idiotic policy.
  8. It seems to me that the biggest mistake in regard to his tariffs is the presumption that he can simply restore the "golden industrial era of America" which he seems to be pining for. Granted America has lost millions of jobs but it happened for a dozen good reasons and tariffs are not going to change that. It's too costly to manufacture electronics and even clothing in America these days, and only between 4 and 8% of the US economy is based on manufacturing anyway. At least manufacturing done in America, as opposed to manufacturing by American companies, done overseas.
  9. It's impossible that a man in his position can be a blazing idiot, but I suppose it is possible that he can be incredibly arrogant and highly ignorant. Those same qualities seem to apply to Bessent, Navarro, Hesgeth, Vance, and Trump. He sure knows how to surround himself by clowns, doesn't he?
  10. Which is very appropriate for the man who is likely the most corrupt president in the history of America. Never forget the vast majority of his fortune was grifted, scammed, or stolen from small contractors and amassed through bankruptcies.
  11. Tells me that some of his biggest supporters sat him down, slapped him silly, and lectured him on how the world truly works, rather than his silly vision of the golden Industrial age, which is a bygone era, and will never return to America.
  12. China wields massive power with some major ports, the fact that they manufacture 95% of the world shipping containers, and the fact that they control nearly half of the world's shipping. I'll bet Trump's tiny brain has not even considered that for a nanosecond.
  13. Nope. Totally incorrect. I am an American, and I support America. But I am man enough to admit one America is on the wrong path, which it is on right now. Doing the whole black and white thing simply shows a level of naivety, or a level of inconceivable devotion to a man who is not only highly ignorant, but very deluded about America's place in the world, in this day and age.
  14. I agree China's in deep trouble, but Trump's policies are deflating the dollar, deflating its attractiveness, and decreasing interest in US bonds. That could end up being the goons Achilles heel.
  15. I am no fan of the CCP and the Chinese government, quite the opposite, and in no way shape or form am I saying that China is not a bully. However Trump provoked them, and they are simply responding at this point, and what you don't want to admit is that they have a much stronger hand in this game. They could crush Trump and the US.
  16. It was a satirical reply but you're so caught up and partisan division and hatred that you cannot even recognize humor. Do you understand the extent to which politics has poisoned your heart and soul? Do you get that even for a nanosecond?
  17. Trump spectacular lack of understanding of globalization and the inherent manufacturing ecosystems is a stunning thing to witness. He very well could blow this entire thing up with his stupidity and arrogance. China has a winning hand in these negotiations and he's such a terrible poker player he doesn't even get the fact that he's holding threes and fours. I'm really hesitant to call him a dunce, because I really don't want to insult the dunces of the world. Intellectually challenged? One sandwich short of a picnic? Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.
  18. Right now tornado Trump is doing such a great job of shooting himself in his own foot I doubt if he will even last the rest of this term. There is a good chance he'll be run out of Washington within 24 months.
  19. This thread could have only been started by a major devotee of the fake master. China is in a tremendously advantageous position, they can afford to hold out, America cannot. America needs the rare earth materials, America has invested trillions in manufacturing in China, which controls 95% of the shipping container market and more than 50% of the shipping market worldwide. The Chinese people are likely far more capable of sacrifice than the American people, who are quite soft and unaccustomed to living without their creature comforts. This whole Tornado Trump tariff crusade could turn around and bite Trump in the butt so hard, he has to flee Washington within 24 months. A third term? I doubt if he will finish this term. And nobody's even discussing China's mastery of hacking, they could literally cripple the US overnight if that was their end game.
  20. For Putin serial killing of women and children is like a hobby, he gets up in the morning and just looks forward to reports about more mothers getting slaughtered. That's just who he is.
  21. It's definitely time for them to focus all their attention on Democrats, they are the dangerous ones, they are the ones that are drinking the blood of babies in the basement of pizza parlors. Conservatives are very mild-mannered, and very few are capable of violence.
  22. America go home! That is a great mantra. Love it.
  23. There is a reason why he's been publicly avoiding medical exams for so many years, he likely has a multitude of diseases, and you can just look at his face and see that he's quite sick, both in the body and the mind.
  24. This is the way to win a trade war against the bully and a man possessing spectacular levels of ignorance. And a terrible poker player to boot. China is holding all the cards in this game and Trump does not get the fact that he's playing with fire. China could truly cripple the US on so many different levels. And they just might.
  25. Well I think that no doubt what you're saying is true, society does seem to be declining. I think in general mankind is declining and civilization has started moving backwards towards the 2nd Cro Magnan era. But there still are some quality tourists out there .Thailand just doesn't seem to be attracting very many of them, especially Phuket and the ever infamous Pattaya. Has Pattaya now become the world center for derelicts, lowlifes, ladyboys, and drunks?
