[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh so, it’s 4d chess when Trump send a bunch of angry messages to random allies? And it helps our position on the world stage? I’m just hoping someone can confirm that. Thanks![/quote]

Panama was the very first country in Latin America to sign on to the Belt and Road Initiative. That's not "ally" behavior.  Panama can't lay out a red carpet for an adversary, worsen our economy, and then claim they are still an ally. [/quote]

Trump immediately notices this stuff

Libs are still trying to figure out what gender they are.[/quote]

The first posters on this thread have probably never even heard of the Belt and Road initiative. They think diplomacy is about saying nice things so other countries will like us. It's not. It's about advancing American interests.  [/quote]

Can you just give a straight answer? Do you think it’s presidential, or even intelligent, and good for our international relations, for Trump to yell at Panama on Twitter? And yell at Canada calling it America’s 51st state (as if we are to annex it). Offer to buy Greenland? Or to yell at BRIC countries?

What do most people do when you yell at them? I’m just really curious if you actually think it strengthens our standing when Trump does this? You really think it does anything beneficial? Yelling and making absurd, childish hissy fits? We can’t just “take back the canal” as he said. Canada is not our 51st state. Can’t you see this talk is harmful?[/quote]

Canada is motivated to do what they can to address the border now, when they weren’t before. So yeah, I think it’s effective. Evidently.[/quote]
