Trump has lost his mind, but we knew it already and still the Americans elected him. Now they have senile man in power that will destroy much more than can be built up worldwide... Anyway America will loose in the end -

Good luck to thailand in their trade relationship with china, where they are running a deficit, while they were fleecing the US. -

17 Dogs Poisoned in Nakhon Ratchasima, Military Orders Full Investigation
Killing for meat in atrocious meat processing plants, cock fighting, capturing fish and birds for making a merit, cruel transportation of animals, especially pigs and the country littered with millions of diseased dog pests never seem to be a problem though. -

Again, show us the source where Trump gets his crazy tariff numbers from. I think it does not exist, because it is just one more of his untruths. -

Trump Starts Global Tariff Wall, Thailand Hit with 36% Tax
When we transitioned to globalism, there was a lot of domestic pain across developed countries. Those of a certain age will remember the mass layoffs in the manufacturing/manual jobs industries as these were offshored and we switched to a service based economy. This is still a developing scenario but perhaps we are seeing the start of a globalism re-set. I believe all will be looking for a negotiated settlement which will water down these tariffs. We will see how things develop. The tariffs are broad but you can see a pattern of heavier tariffs on those whom the White House are not acting in good faith. The US has no responsibility to subsidise other economies. I guess the White House feels that many countries take too much advantage of the status quo whilst engaging in protectionist policies themselves. Closer to home, as I have mentioned elsewhere : 1) Thailand has highly protectionist import and business restrictions. 2) Thailand runs a healthy trade surplus with the US, which the US might accept if it were not for (1) and I speculate particularly (3) 3) Thailand runs an unhealthily large trade deficit with US-nemesis China. Partly as China appears to have been able to side-step point (1). No particular view on whether this is the right approach, I'm just trying to analyse things beyond "Trump is a c*ck" 🙂 -

Shifting to where the U.S. does the low value grunt work and China takes over the high value tech and services. In Ttump's vulgar vernacular, he thinks he has all the cards but that is arrogant delusional buffoonery. The entire world will simply dump the U.S. The damage he's doing is PERMANENT.- 2
