    It's funny, really. Ooh! Who has utterly DEVASTATED Europe with this horrific pandemic virus through negligence, malfeasance, and unbelievable bureaucratic stupidity? CHINA!

    And who is going to save the miserably helpless, socialist countries of Europe from the horrific damage that has already been done to their economies? NOT CHINA!

    I asked a Democrat here who he would support for president, xi VS trump, and he said it would be a tough decision.

    The Democrat party is owned by the MSM

    The MSM is owned by China

    Democrats who cover for China and blame trump for the virus will be praised

    Democrats who call out China will be ignored and shamed.

    I wish you were right, but Americans lack the willingness to respectfully discuss our differences. This forum is a good example. Trumps opposition is no better.

    Lol...As someone who has seen much of the world and actually fought for the lives of people born not of my country I can only say this:

    All your polls on public opinion mean nothing. The rest of the world LOVES the USA when they need us or when they are taking advantage of us financially. Whenever America stops being a mark and we actually start looking out for our own interests, we become unpopular.
    No one likes Trump because he is not a polished political speaker and he wants America to profit as much from trade as the countries we trade with. He is willing to TAKE as much as he gives with foreign policy.

    Whine all you want. I am OK with it, whatever else may come. I have personally fought and shed blood, some of it my own, to have that opinion. The world being the world, it won't be long until they need us again.

    trump is an idiot that does know if he should $hit or wind his watch

    being able to brainwash haters and being a good president are 2 different issues

    the Europeans know this...and they are tired of his insanity

    they have been stuck at home watching TV the same as the rest of the world

    let me share with the less than intelligent trump cult members a news flash

    THE REASON THE USA PAYS FOR EVERYTHING IS SO THE USA HAS CONTROL..

    "whoever buys dinner choses the restaurant"

    watch how fast people in the usa that are not brainwashed but tolerate trump jump ship

    the people not brainwashed will no longer tolerate an idiot if their wallet is not fat

    trump has did exactly what was expected of him he has been played like a fiddle

    everybody has outsmarted trump ..China, Russia the EU all laugh at his ignorance

    and the republicans and democrats both have played him like a fiddle

    only Brazil has a leader as ignorant as trump ...

    trumps defenders are a very sad bunch so filled with hate they have allowed themselves to be brainwashed

    trump has did much damage

    but the most damage trump will do is yet to come

    thanks to the trump and his brainwashed followers

    the democrats will control the house , senate, and the Whitehouse sooner than later

    I don't know about you, but I run my house the way I think is best and not based on the feelings of my neighbors. And if those neighbors decided to run down the street and cozy up to a family that's racist, anti Muslim, oppressive, engages in slavery and is poisoning the planet with pollutants while releasing deadly viruses, well, that's say more about them than it does me.

    The good news for Europe is that China will tell them how to solve their Muslim problem.

    Our citizenry has gone from being viewed as adolescents to toddlers in three plus years. We need to get our **** together.

    Our country definitely has some rebuilding work to do with Europe and the world in general. We certainly don’t want Xi stepping into the leadership void we’ve created (albeit he is currently).

    If only Trump were HALF the war criminal Obama was, he would earn the respect of China AND the Democrats.

    To the extent China and the Democrats can be distinguished from one another at this point...

    Oh, did Trump hurt European's tender feelings by calling them out on their failure to live up to their NATO commitments? Too bloody bad! America wants allies, not protectorates.

    What, do you think there are just peasants and it skips right to millionaires?
    Europeans build a different type of car for most of the Chinese market - small, three and four cylinder. Millions of them.

    Exactly what has Trump done to establish himself as a dictator or mad king. Do you know what these terms mean? Can you define them? What has President Trump done that President Obama has not? If you want to call him uncouth? Rude? Obnoxious? Downright offensive and unlikable?

    All true. He is unpopular because he is putting America's interests first at the cost of other nations' interests. He wants trade conditions with other countries to benefit America not with just cheap toasters and TV's but by creating an economic environment where American companies can compete while creating and keeping jobs in America. That isn't going to happen without some discomfort when your competition has no problem with slave wages, sweat shops, and 12 year old children working 16 hour days.

    Trump is a mad king? Fine. Show me the actual evil deeds.

    The average wage in China comes out to 11,000 in American dollars, even less in euros. You were saying?

    the cars built for the Chinese have much lower pollution and safety standards than cars built for other countries

    they can be built cheaper for china than other countries

    the reason china is so powerful is because of the greedy American business owner..

    americans don't want to operate at a realistic percentage of profit

    the Chinese are happy to operate at a 10 or 20% profit margin...

    not amercans the greedy Americans like trump want a 100 or 200% profit margin

    so what do they do?? export the business to China to increase profit margin

    how many Chinese patents does trumps girlfriend Ivanka have??

    and where does trump make and buy his products for h9s losing companies??

    ever watch the TV show shark tank??

    at least once an episode a shark will suggest to move production to china to increase profit margins

    and this is exactly why China makes most of the drugs of this country

    I agree all business need a profit , but where does the greed stop??

    will americans ever be happy with a 10 or 20% profit margin??

    kinda sad actually
