Trump never experiences shame because according to him he is always right and everyone else is wrong.

Interesting first point. Can you supply anything to add that  actually has been offered as proof?

The second point is more maga nonsense from you.

Perhaps to be more accurate I should have said the Cambodian government and elites within the power structure of the country.

The "maga nonsense" are simply a few of the lovely legacies that Gov Gav will leave behind. Or do you have any proof that they are false?

Claim: Xi "dismantled" Trump on Thailand-Cambodia.
Reality: Xi praised the accord as a "positive step" crediting U.S. mediation (White House/Blue House readouts).Trump’s Win:

October 26 Kuala Lumpur Accord (his calls) — border demilitarized, 50k refugees home.

Xi conceded: 10% EV tariff cut, $2.5B soybean buys.

RawStory’s Spin: No quotes, no transcripts — just anonymous "diplomats." Bottom Line: Xi blinked. Trump delivered. RawStory lied.

This is more evidence that people will believe any nonsense that comes from Trump's mouth.

You might stop buying imported goods, and invest in the USA, by 'buying USA', supporting USA companies in the USA, and US citizen workers.

 

Some would say, myself including ... "you ARE the problem"

 

Tariffs are an attempt to solve that problem, but because of like minded people, like you, it will fail miserable, as nobody, you, and other US citizens care enough about the US economy, to support a plan that will work, but happy to complain about it.   

 

Where were the complaints during Biden, and some of the highest inflation of any 4 yr administration, 20+%, if going by the COLAs on Soc Sec.

Trump's tariffs are designed to intimidate.  They have nothing to do with trade.

Whatever said and done, China is moving forward rapidly and proving their superiority, surely.

The issue is how much higher. An inflation rate of about 2 % is considered normal.

taco comes to mind

Why are all the leftist wokes making a fuss through their absurd attacks against the Donald here ? The main goal is that peace should be made and who cares if it's China or Trump who backed the issue ? All this political and ego ranting is selfish and does not look into the real problem - stop the wars and make peace.

Modi skipped ASEAN to avoid talk of Pakistan with Trump: report

 

"Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi stayed away from a regional leaders summit in Malaysia this week to avoid meeting US President Donald Trump and having a possible discussion about Pakistan," people familiar with the matter said.

"Officials in the government were apprehensive that Trump would repeat his claim that he mediated a ceasefire between India and Pakistan after a four-day armed conflict in May, the people said, asking not to be identified because the discussions are private," Bloomberg reported about the alleged actual reason behind the skipping out on the summit.

Wow all the Mage here that actually do not live in Thailand know exactly how Trump made peace between Cambodia and "Albania" Well I live right in the centre of it all and can tell you that there is no peace.

 

@SunnyinBangrak The world is not black or white. Nobody supports China they merely point out the facts that your cult leader is the dumbest person evr to be elected. And that's your fault.

The claim that Trump "lied" about saving "millions of lives" is a classic gotcha — cherry-picking a rhetorical flourish while ignoring the escalation risks it averted. Yes, the July 2025 border clash killed ~48 (per Reuters/UN figures), but Trump's mediation (phone calls from Turnberry, July 28 truce) prevented a full-scale war that could have spiraled into hundreds of thousands dead and millions displaced. It's not a lie — it's diplomatic language for a real de-escalation that stabilized ASEAN and earned him a Nobel nod from Cambodia. Dismissing it as "Trump lied" is lazy partisanship, not analysis.

 

The claim that Trump 'lied' about saving 'millions of lives' is a classic fact.

About 50 people died in the Thai–Cambodian conflict — not 'millions saved'.
Calling that 'diplomatic language' isn't nuance; it's spin.

Your logic word salad on full display:
Appeal to Hypothetical Consequences 'It could have spiraled into millions.'
No source ever said that — pure what-if fiction.
False Dichotomy 'Not a lie, just diplomacy.'
A diplomatic lie is still a lie.
Straw Man 'Critics ignored what he averted.'
No one said he caused the war — only that he inflated the outcome.
Appeal to Authority 'Reuters, UN, Nobel nod.'
Name-dropping to prop up an empty point.

Ad Hominem 'Lazy partisanship.'
Insulting critics instead of answering facts.

Confirmation Bias 'Keeping only the flattering parts, discarding the rest.'
Cherry-picking praise, dumping proof.

Fifty died — and one man still found a way to make it about himself.

Context is important.Biden came into office  as the impact  of the Covid disruptions were still influencing the economy.  The economy was reopening during the Biden term. As businesses started operating and production came back, there was a pent up demand for everything which resulted in inflation. As the Biden term progressed, costs and inflation stabilized and started to reduce.  

pent up demand...lol.  It couldn't of been giving out free money. Which then people go spend like crazy which drove up inflation. No couldn't be that. 

between my wife and I we got about $5000 USD, some went to saving some was invested.  Allot of people used the money for vacations or buying stuff they didn't really need but wanted!

Trump got the Order of Denial from Egypt, Gold Balls from Japan, and the Crown of the Silly from South Korea — I was wondering if Xi would give him what he really deserves.
Turns out Xi already has — a diplomatic kick up the b***.

‘China has assisted Cambodia and Thailand in our own way to resolve the border dispute and we continue to promote peace talks to address other pressing issues in the region.’

No threats, no self-praise — just Xi handing Trump the lesson he’s never learned: power doesn’t need volume.
 

Roosevelt said it, ‘Speak softly and carry a big stick.’

sure China is everyone's friend...

We will loan you money to build roads and sea ports, we will invest in Casinos and resorts and then send all our tourists to those Chinese owned places. 

we will even build this for you and operate it with our people!

 

What you cant pay us back?? that's ok we will just take control of the port, factory etc. 

Yup China everyone's friend!  Speak to people in Africa and ask them how that's going.  Even in Cambodia China has pretty much taken over.

last year buying a car you were paying over MSRP, now they are offering discounts from MSRP and financing anywhere from 0% to 2%

Gas is finally under $3 a gal. ($2.45- $2.75)  eggs no longer $9-12  now back to $2-3

I'm no longer getting a surcharge for my eggs at a restaurant! 

 

keep listening to the people on TV telling you how bad things are and Trump is the reason!
