What, they are going to lose the slave labour?First thing I hear this morning is that the deal is already falling apart .U.S now say they aren't going to fully suspend war games with South Korea and there's no verification process for determining if North Korea is disarming.
They say this is the fifth of these such agreements which have previously been broken.

What a biased load of piffle...Yeah how can anyone criticize Trump is beyond me.......dividing the US will be great for the future, tarfits on nations that have a trade deficit with the US sheer genus, breaking alliances with western allies forged to stop future wars brilliant.
Lock him up the man is just a criminal.

The US has been taking it up the 455 for so long on all those issues for so long, the left are no longer able to even think remotely critically.
Analysis bro, use your brain.

Aren't most of the people posting in this thread at least middle age? Aren't you aware of all the associates of Trump who have come forward to detail his thoroughly unethical nature. From his self described childhood as a Bully, to his not paying contractors, his lying to promote his business, his predatorial behaviour in business. His rape of his ex wife Ivana and numerous sexual assualts. The failed attempt to control Boxing and destroying Mike Tyson in the process. The list is endless.
That's the problem most informed people have with Trump, his unethical nature and past.
He's a documentary with plenty of brave ex associates who have come forward
Probably most people on here are over middle aged, that is probably why we don't get caught up in the warm feel good politically correct stuff.
I'm not discussing Trump, with regard him marrying my daughter, or being whether I want him to be my BFF if that is what they say, I just want somebody to sort the $hit out.
This is serious, in the U.S.A term deposits in 2017, were getting 0.09% on savings, that's not good in a capitalist system.
Obama did nothing to sort the stalled monetary system, because he didn't want to confront the reality, the U.S is the biggest market place in the Western World it has to get moving.
The reality is China has linked it currency to the U.S currency, and won't float it, which means their product automatically undercuts the U.S product.
So after 10 years of begging China to play the game, Trump gets in and says FFluck it, if you won't play the game neither will we.
The problem China has, is they still haven't moved their whole economy over to first World, so still need to sell a lot of gear.
The U.S is still the biggest market place, but even the Chinese would prefer to buy made in Japan or made in U.S or made in Germany, than made in China.
So Trump has called their bluff, you want a trade war fine, bring it on and see your factories close, because no one will buy Chinese if they can buy anything else.
Or else get in the game and float you currency, which the Chinese don't want to do because they got burnt badly in the GFC by having a $hit load of U.S bonds.
They would prefer the World to move away from a currency based on the $US, which is understandable, because the U.S caused the GFC and saved themselves by devaluing their $US, which in turn made all other currencies higher and their exports more expensive.
I know it is a bit long winded, but I've been away for three months, so I'm starved of political debate. lol
I'm back, great holiday, fully recharged and ready to roll.
Therefore Darc Knight, why would you send Cinderalla into a street fight, I would rather send in Mike Tyson.
That is why Turnbull is in, Australia hadn't got to 0.09% interest, so they didn't like Abbott.
If we had got there Abbott would still be in. lol

Still in that echo chamber left/right has nothing to do with US foreign policy.......nothing.
US foreign policy dogma has been consistent for over 70+ years for good reason.
The world owns the US nothing it has only ever acted in its own interest which has benefited the US and the western world because it benefits the US.
No culture has dominated the world more than the US.
No country has made the wealth the US has ever.
Trump is a short term disaster disrupting this trend.
Trump is a criminal.........lock him up (love that saying might get a tee shirt)

Right on. I would have thought the domination of the US economically and politically around the world and the value this returned the country was obvious. Trying to screw the rest of the world tighter and tighter to extract even more rent is not going to be a good look.

... whether we like it or notYes, until the next time, we need them to save our ar$e.
They will strike a deal and you know who the loser from the deal will be.Might be good for Australia though, if the US is having trade wars with China and Europe then we can fill in some gaps in those markets.
