Robb, he's bending over for Putin which might reduce tensions with the Russians, yet he's infuriated and wound up the real contender for world superpower in China. The America-Russia bluster would have simmered along indefinitely, but do half of what he proposed relating to China and we really could have WW3.

Can you not be so dramatic please.

Yeah... this parade is going to be real work. Security wise.

What's the point of vandalising businesses in the area? You're doing nothing to help your cause.

I don't think we need to worry about China. They have no desire to go to war with anyone. Their name means 'Middle nation' which means they see themselves as the middle of the world and don't have any need or want to invade anywhere.

I understand the Taiwan situation is volatile but I can't see china risking nuclear destruction just for Taiwan.

I've tried to explain to people for years that the very existence of nuclear weapons in a way means massive wars unlikely to happen. It stopped the Cold War going hot. Mutually assured destruction has a handy way of stopping millions of troops going into a country with nukes.

China are now an economic powerhouse. They won't risk losing it all just for Taiwan and I think Trump knows that.

After 8 years of meaningless rhetoric based on those
'Hope and Change' constants the people there will get a chance to see if any real change can be forthcoming.
Would not take much to be better than the last guy who was always going to get a free ride regardless.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yup, nothing meaningless about let's "make America great again"
----------------------------------------------------------------------
After 8 years of nothing then it can be called that not on day one.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It's still absolutely meaningless when his plans for making America great again revolves around making the lives of white people better while minorities schit their pants!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You are not all there are you? Another constant bleated along the it's all someone's fault line. Illegal immigrants are just that and should be deported. Apart from that how is he favouring old whitey to the detriment of every other creed?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In case you hadn't realised the glass ceiling in the employment industry was shattered permanently when Obama became President. Time for adults to take responsibility for themselves and their children's behaviour outside the home. All lives matter and the biggest threat to a young black male in America is another young black male. Stop making excuses for failure as opportunities are there for everyone despite what Jeremy and Diane tell you.

So now you've explained it Robb, with your usual foresight and perspicasity, you can explain why the same arguments don't apply to everybody,including Hillary.

It isn't just Taiwan though. Claims of a 40% tarrif on Chinese imports will cripple America. He does that, the Chinese govt then says give us the trillions of dollars you owe us.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
See. Those are claims. So many people are so quick to dismiss some of what he says and then hold other quotes as gospel to what he's about to do. We don't know what he's going to do yet, and until then, we need to approach things with a clear conscious.

Trump wants to stop US troops going into other countries if he can. He wants to make the US isolationist. Hilary Clinton would gladly oversee more countries being invaded.

China is sitting on a major bubble that is the Real Estate market and they cannot possibly continue their massive expansion projects that are not generating economic benefits for their country. The people are so wealthy there that they are throwing away their money or trying to park their illegal money in a foreign investment. When things go south, not only do we Americans suffer but the Chinese will as well.

Those Chinese government are Enron-ing this shiiit for the last 15 years. Of course their numbers are going to look okay. If you go to the smaller cities, like your Xi'an, Xiamen, Hainan, Dailan, etc there are masses of unfinished, abandoned, empty projects outside the cities. The numbers make no sense given what is actually out there in the cities.

My bad. We buy our submarines from Japan.

I think we'd take China in a fight. We'd make them have to go through the croc infested waters to get to us. That's half their manpower gone
