What are these "better deals"? None of his tariffs have resulted in anything positive for the US, but they have prompted other nations to build alternate trade blocks. Canada just signed up 40 nations. The only thing his tariffs have done is raise the cost of goods in the US....that is, contributed to inflation. Now Trump has to battle two of the SC judges he appointed, because they disagreed with his claim he has the right to impose tariffs without Congressional consent. China is just laughing at Trump, stepping back and watching as the great alliances in the West post-WWII are collapsing. China will calmly fill that void. What is this "keeps removing top officials"? Maduro, yes, but gangs are now taking over Venezuela. In Iran, they don't even have to change the official letterhead. Before it was "From the Desk of Ayatollah Khamenei", and so it is today. Maybe you mean the Ice Barbie herself, Noem? So let's see what Trump's war of choice accomplished..... -oil is up 60% since mid February -the US is running low on Patriot systems, THAAD systems, Cruise missiles, etc.,....and even had to show South Korea that the US really doesn't care about their security, because Trump removed weapons from there he needed in the Middle East. -Lots of dead people -Probably more people committed to harming the US, as happens when one's sons or daughter are killed by an outsider -Gulf States production will be down even if the war ended tonight, because Iran has hit refineries and LNG gas plants -the already ballooning US deficit needs an additional $200 billion for defense...whoops!...WAR -US allies are pulling back, in Europe and even the Middle East. There is growing consensus that the US is not the protector it pretended to be. (Monitor the Arab media and you will hear this, though it helps if you speak Arabic) -Iran still has all the MEU it had on 28 February -Iran has more MEU than it had when they abided by the JCPOA, which limited them to 300kg of LEU -Oh, and as the US deficit jumps, who are the foreigners who will continue to fund 25% of it, after Trump alienated them with tariffs and his war? No doubt Trump and his Carnival People are working hard to make up a definition of victory, so that Trump can claim he achieved it. Of course he might waffle a few times so that those "in the know" can front run his flips and flops to benefit from market swings. It's quite easy to see who front ran his Tweet a week ago, but I guess the SEC and DoJ have other things to do. Anyway, they only made $2-4 billion in 20 minutes, which just qualifies as Trump Change.
