Believe me , coming from a third world country we observed the beginning of the end with Biden and his idiotic behaviour and the adminastration trying to cover it up , we also observed Trump in the background with his bully boy antics and thought you should rather change the old adage to GOD HELP AMERICA , however , we in the third world are most grateful for sensible leadership coming from China and Russia , we will continue to watch the collective west wallow in their faeces

 

"however, we in the third world are most grateful for sensible leadership coming from China and Russia"

 

Now that was the tonic I needed to start the day.....a really good laugh.

Biden engaged with world leaders and re-established American diplomatic credibility as well as policies. Biden Admin has also stabilised the US economy. Trump administration will be handed a good stating point, have to wait and see to see if he stuff's it up with his nonsense rhetoric such as taking over the Panama Canal. Seems to me trump only knows one starting point for negotiations - - threats - I don't recall any significant diplomatic achievement during his last incumbency, except for Israel and the Abraham Accords, even that did not create any peace whatsoever except of enrichment for his extended family and $500 billion for the US taxpayer (forgiveness of debts).

Biden has never been in charge, that should be obvious to blind Freddy, by reading the article of the WH staff interviews the other day

First of all you're not obliged to read my posts. You don't think all the MAGA posts deflection and denials when presented with facts are truly annoying. Accordingly why not give up your cult membership, alternately put me on ignore.

Staff cannot act on the international stage without Biden's authorisation

Trump threatens to retake control of Panama Canal

December 23, 202411:20 AM GMT+7Updated 11 min ago

 

The United States largely built the canal and administered territory surrounding the passage for decades. But the United States and Panama signed a pair of accords in 1977 that paved the way for the canal's return to full Panamanian control. The United States handed over control of the passage in 1999 after a period of joint administration.

"Every square meter of the Panama Canal and the surrounding area belongs to Panama and will continue belonging (to Panama)," Mulino said in his statement, which was released on X.

Trump then responded to Mulino: "We'll see about that!"

The MAGA gang will be salivating over this......even after all their claims of "Trump the peacemaker".

 

One thing minions love is seeing their dictator in bully-mode.

He's offended by my politics, and blinded by his, so he insults my lifestyle. Wow. Big man stuff right there, utter Tarzan power.

Such a display of strength. 

We wait with baited breath for your continued articulation.

They were laughing because he said his administration had achieved more in two years than any other in history.

Trump made it clear that he's not interested in business as usual, the one sided trade and defense agreements that have the US paying for so much and getting so little in return.  That's what you get when you send "seasoned diplomats" that have never held a real job in the real world.

 

I wanna see some junkyard dogs negotiating on my behalf.  Tom Homan is a great example, though on the domestic front...

 

Unsackable career politicians with large salaries and golden pensions listening to similar lobbyists = same old same.
