What has Trump done now?

[Grumpy Old Nasho]

Look at what China did to us, they blocked some of our exports and our Parliament panicked realizing they shouldn't have criticized China about spreading Covid in 2019.

Chinas blocking of Australian exports was an own goal for a number of products. One, we found other markets for the products, and the price often went up - especially for rock lobster (crayfish), which the Chinese can't get enough of. The ban reduced overall sales initially, but the ban simply meant the lobster fishing industry found other countries willing to take our lobsters, and the industry is now more diversified and less reliant on China for income.

 

Secondly, the Chinese stopped importing Australian coal, but that sent coal prices up, and China had to buyer poorer quality coal at higher prices from other countries. Australian coal producers had no trouble selling our coal to places such as India, which competes with China.

Canada also targeted imports from red states, albeit tariff based rather than banning them. But individual provinces removed US products from booze shops where the government controlled sales

Minnesota Republican Representative Tom Emmer was widely mocked after he nearly called President Donald Trump "President c*nt" before catching himself while speaking at a National Republican Congressional Committee dinner on Tuesday.

I think it says a lot that the US press consistantly refers to him as "former President Trump".

They have worked out why Trump considers asylum seekers are the mental rejects of other countries. He misunderstands the use of the word asylum  -  if you are an asylum seeker, you must have come from a mental asylum.

Imagine what losers the other 999 sperm were.

It will be interesting to see how this 60 Minutes interview goes down with Trump. 

 

[red750]

Following his recent medical checkup, it has been recommended that Trump has a colonoscopy, but it has been pencilled in for 2027. It is anticipated that J.D.Vance will fill his chair during his absence.

I'd like his colonoscopy to follow Hancock's method in the movie "Hancock".

With Vance (or Musk) being the person to get the close view.
