Trump stands on stage threatening to invade countries and everyone in attendance cheers in delight. Fox News thinks it's brilliant, and looks forward to Greenland becoming part of the US. 

In the last few weeks, he has threatened to invade Mexico with the US army, made a sick joke about Canada being made into the 51st state of America, and now he says he wants to take over Panama and Greenland.

This is just after Trump has threatened to tariff the EU, China, Mexico, and Canada - and then also all BRICS members if they don't accept his terms.

It is as if it is like Germany in the 1930's. Trump's claim that the world is ripping Americans off, is the new Mein Kampf...

Why can't they see, that they are now owned by the billionaire Oligarchs that destroy competition to maximise shareholder profits, and shift most jobs overseas for cheap labour and to reduce local job demand to suppress wage growth ?

It is not about petty left vs right-wing stuff, the billionaires are both left and right-wing.

Funny how sick  in the head SB can get.    Trump said that as long as the Mexican Government  does nt act against people and drug smuggling into the USA he will help h Mexican Government by wiping out the cartels.   Theya re caussing the death o hndreds of thousands of Americns through drug smuggling helped along by Biden with his Open Boarder policy.   .        

The factis that the EU Governments are all in big shit - not cased by Trump but by poor  leadership and poor policies.     E=What Trunp is sriving for is upgrading of Government mana gement in the USA and he is open to tade treaties that do not benefto only the USA but equally benefit the oteh party or parties involved.          \   

  "It is as if it is like Germany in the 1930's. Trump's claim that the world is ripping Americans off, is the new Mein Kampf."    ..

 BS really baffles brains when that is quoted,     There si one dfference though - the leftissts wants wars to cover up their own deficincies in  Government and failure in their leftist policies.     And you are stupd enough to fall for the BS.

How about you chill, VisKop. Did you buy any crypto yet? You really should, what is coming in 2025 will melt faces. That token I told you about, when it was $0.20, it is up 800%...and the parabolic phase of the bull run is yet to come in 2025. A safe estimate is that the FTM coin should hit $10...but $20 is also very possible. Your £1000 would now be £8000...and £50k by next year this time...largely thanks to Trump.

@ButtPlug,

Crypto will have its ups and downs. The people who make the money will be the ones who know the precise second of when to sell - like financial stock traders - or more likely inside traders etc. 

The next financial crash will be an instant bear market for Crypto and it will become worthless overnight. 

If a financial institution like the US government backed a certain Crypto, it would no longer have the same risk - but the rewards would be much lower - more like a traditional investment where lots of money is required.

When something sounds too good to be true, it usually is...

By the  way  dimness Trump is picking Secretaries from all major groups in his cbnet comprsing of ex-Democrats s well as independents.    Trump's  main Heads of Department  serving in is cabinet are all major Businessmen  heading and owning major successul  companies in the US A,   Some of them are in fact Independents.    The main idea is that Government  Department should be administered on good nd proven private secor enterprises operate,   If tht is fully implemented the US Budge would be cut by up to 40% - while at the same time enhancing effiiciecny/     

That policy needs support by all political parties and groups and is guaranteed to ensure he Government does not go tolitarian.     In fact even in the Democratic Party there are members that will suppt he DOGE initiative,     

Trump's speeches dealt with three isues, namely-

 *    he deterirration of living standards  of working class and poor people;

*    the Biden Open Border Policy; and

*    the collapse of law amd order in the USA.   

The DP regard the Open boder Policy as sacroscant  - similar to their green policies  based on socialist policies.     The collapse of law and order is totlly cotrolled by Soros,  

The DP had no answer to the isues Trump dealt with and their only response was that it entails dictatorial tendencies,    The shit will really had the fan when politicians and bureaucrats are arrested for criminality - espcially bribery and corruption.- when the media again wil scream that Trump is a Fascist and it is retribution of whidh there will be none.   The cases will go through the court system and guilty ones would be proven criminals based on real and not political charges,    

Biden will not be charged bcause he is ga-ga and does not know what is happening.   Special  Council Hur sid the same in hus repor on docments taken home.  hur said he does not recomment cargig of Biden - since no court will take a decision from  menrally challenged      people like Biden/

The same may apply to Pelosi - but her son is involved as well and he may end up in a new and usnafe home ie in prison.  Schiff can expct a very long jail sentence if  all his corruption are dealt with as l a oher hares relating to lying under oath about his ppuse membrship. - 30 years would be really deserved in his case.  He got millions in aid moey paid to Ukraine for armments,    The mone was then allocated to a Ukraine armamaents factory owne whod registered a subsuduary company in the USA through which bribes went to Schiff.    By he way the us sbsuduary cmpany referred to had wo Forcyots serving fulltime as emplyees of Schiff,   The  FBI knew what happened but they refuse to deal with the evidence they had in their possession,       .     ,   .       ,

Appointing billionaires to the government "might work. However, it could just be an Oligarchy with billionaires enriching themselves further.

I do not really care what billionaires get in return - what I want to see is efficient Public Service operations saving trillions in money and the elimination of bribery and corrupion in the USA  - especially if such conduct involving both poltcians and bureaucrats and the conduct  of  the FBI is crimefighting  unit acted as protectors of crimianl conduct.

With proper conduct by Government everybody in he country will be better off than at present and an improved finanicl sitution will lead to expansion of busineses belonging  to bilionaores inclssive of  Secretaries concerned wil also grow - but it will be expected of the companies to expand their enterprises which will entail enhacement in the GDP as well as creation of production jobs while expansion of the already deficient Public Service will  be counter-productive. and wiped out. 

There is alreaady a Korean company unertaking  an invesment of $100 billion in industrial development in the USA - whil Trump asked him to double the invesment - the $100 billion prject is aimed at creaing ana dditioanl 100 000 jobs.    The billionaires that used to support the DP in he apst are now flocking to support the Trump initiatives, while major funders of the DP funders are beginning to eiminate conmtributions to the DP - leaving Gates and Soos firmly in the DP camp. while the rest have bolted.

VisKop...

I can tell you now when you should sell. 

November 2025.

And remember, you can always put stop-losses in once the market starts get overheated at the peak of the bull run....and the bull run peaks within the same 3 month period every 4 years. Tis like clockwork. 

Towards the end of the bull run(October to December 2025) you start putting in tracking stop losses. Generally this means that you put in a sell order every day that is 10-15% below the current value, and cancel the previous day's stop loss. So when the market does crash, you wont lose more than than.

Just when I thought poor Blobbrain was the dumbest poster on the board along comes ou sharktwit with this absurd post.

As for Greenland it's owned by Denmark. So if a pro e can be agreed America could buy Greenland. It apparently  could serve as a useful military base.

The Panama Canal was sold by Jimmy Carter to Pana for 1 dollar after 38,000 Americans had dies building it. The terms of tbe sale allowed America to act if the canal was not administered properly. Panama is charging absorbitant fees for the canals use. 76% of tbe useagae is American. Further China is getting involved in Panama.

So Trump is putting the pressure on the Panama Government as he should. 

As for Canada. The idea of Canada becoming part of America has a number of economic benefits and defence benefits for Canada. Trump is not willing to subsiduse Canada to the time of 100 billion dollars a year. Nor will Trump aow illegals to come into the USA via the northern border. So he will slap tariffs on Canada unless thst stops.

Trump humiliated girly boy with the false eyelashes Castro Trudeau. All his comments result I the Deputy Prime minister of Canada resigning and a no confidence vote being held that could well end Castro Trudeau. 

The EU is going to be taught a lesson. Firdy they will have to pay for their defence. Secondly they will be tarriffed to an extent that matches their tariffs om American goods. The ssme will happen to BRICS. 

The world has seen America as a piggy bank. Those days will end with President Trump's America First Agenda so hated by Globalist forces hell bent on trying to destroy America. 

The burning to death of a young American woman in a NEW York subway by an illegal alien deported by the Trump Administration but who returned via demonrat Globalist open borders has outraged most Americans. 

I see in Germany the AFD candidate for Chancellor is the most popular candidate of any party. Elon Musk says only the AFD can save Germany. He is of course right. 

The killing of 4 Germans by a Muslim Migrant has fueled Get an protests. 

In Britain Globalist Starmer is sinking like tbe proverbial stone. Farage's Reform continues to surge. 

People are sick to death of Wokeness and policies designed by Globalists to destroy their countries. 

2025 will be a battle royal against tbe Luciferian Globalists and their allies.

I think the problem with the Trump crtics are they are sfraid that Trump succeed in getting the US A back to reality and will shoor down their pet beliefs.   Thety are afraid that the FBI may reurn to applyig real judicial principles in investigating crime in te USA and some of their heroes ending up in jail.  

As to what is happening in the USA  will soon be joined by Germany.   But in Germaany false accusations based also on politics is a crime and the Media will not refer to anyone as a Nazi,

"Trump stands on stage threatening to invade countries and everyone in attendance cheers in delight. Fox News thinks it's brilliant, and looks forward to Greenland becoming part of the US. "

This was a story the fake media spreaded in 200 ,   Both the Danish abd USA denied that no negotiations on that isssue an the Danish Government that Greenland is not for sale.

In otheer words it as a concocted lie spread by the media     And you beliee the BS.

@DumbMike, you are just too stupid. Even if I post videos of Trump saying this during his first term, and again recently - you will still say it is fake media. It is a video of Trump speaking, not a journalist blog post.

I saw a highlight video from Fox News a few days ago, and people were cheering in the background when he said he wanted to take Greenland and the Panama Canal

Here are some Fox News articles:

Glad you study Fox News nowadays,    The fact is that their ources are often  just thes ame as that of the NYT and man of their journalists are Democrats/   In the 2020 election Fox news support of Trump was lukewarm and some of their reportsing was ant-Trump.  Due to the diastrous Bidenm administration the situation changed this year and even Baier - a registered Democat urned against his own party,        

They are saying about Greenland what "sources" reported - ehile Trump himself enver said Greenland before or since the eelection.   There is no strategic needs for Greenland to become part of the U SA      A similar issue aas raise in 2017 when both teh Danish Government and the USA Givernment denied that anything on the sisue was ever discussed and the "scandal"  issue about Greenland was dealt with previously and then the issue went dead.    The same is likely to happen again.     

The USA bought Alaska from Russia in 1869 and that was a fiancial burden on the USA until discovery of oil.    Any taking over the Island with its populaion of 51 000 eople will become a burden on the USA taxpayers,    

Greenland has a total population of 51 000 people of whom mos live in one twon where the Geenand government operate from.   There is one school where chidldren ges preapratory education to enter Universitie and most of those are attending Danish Universities and never return to Greenland.    

The USA had a major military base in Grenland - but that was closed years ago.    For the rest the county is at present of no value to the USA .    Strategically it is largely covered by Ice and  not really usuable,   Genland as a local Government witha premier in charge abd their own Cbinet and Parliament of 31 mmbers,   Each member represents less than 1000 voters,   

The negotiations about the rpevious Offer of Trump proved to be non-existent and never took place and the rumurs of Trump's present intention has never even being mentioned by Trump since his election.   Until negotiations stsrted between the USA and Danish Government assised by the Grenland Governmenti remains rumors,.    It is the same rumurs that was circulated 7 years ago and enver took place,

As to the  Panama Canal thee isa  different issue.   A s a result of Biden and DP idiocy many of the countries in Central and South America became Chinese statellite states with Brazil and Mexico being  already BRICS members and other countries like Mexico aplying for such membership,     For insatnce the DUS Givernment paid billions of dollars to some countries tos top migration - but the Governments packted the mney and empty their jails and paid the Mexican Cartels to deliver the freed criminals to be sent to the USA.    Amongst thse reelased prisoners 495 000 - mostly mmbers of local gangs ended up in the USA and was released into the country by the Biden Admsinistration.   Nobody knows where the gangsters are - but the gangstes in Ne York was arested and the Mayor will ensure they are repariated to their countries hey came from - in that case Venezuela,     The fact is the Trump Government has a problem to find the majority of the released jaild people in the USA - while murder and ahvoc is increasing wherever they are.     Those found will be treansported out of the USA and since most countries refuse tot ake their criminals back they will end up in their contries of origin.

Panama has become the counry where corrupt politicians kept their loot and that was no secret worldwide.     I is also one of teh contries where Chinese influence is expanding rapidly.   With a number of cuntriesin the area is controlled by China - the major ones being Brazil and Mexico the USA as a problem near to them.   That is why tens of thousands of Chinese enter the USA illegally and  where the fentanyl smuggling is centered.     Thee are close ties between the Mexican Government and the cartels and the fact is the Mexican Government was also a soucrce of Hunter Biden's operations.    When Biden visited Mexico Hunter was on the plane with him - while Joe ws talking to the Mexicna President - Hunter was alking to the leading gangster leaders.    That is why Meixo is and will become more of a threat against the USA. than it ever was before.

It is going t be extremely difficut to stop the rot in Mexico and Trum realis it,     That is why support in teh Hispanic commnities in the USA swung from D support to Republican support in the November 2024 election.    The Hispnic communty relize wha a dangerous situation has arizen under Biden and voted against it.   In 2016 the Cuban refugees and their descendants vote for Trump in 2020 - but that ahs now spread to Texas and Aizona  where most of the decendents from Meican ancesty voted for Trump this time around.     

I am nt sure what Tump is going to do other thn wipe out the Mexican cartels and their gangster rule in the country.    It is why the Mexican Gvernment meekly promised the Trump Administraion demands will be met by the present  Mexican President, already and co-operaion promised,   Since the present Mexican government has close inks to the cartels what will hapen is that the Mexican Governemnt will be foced to follow Trump demands and if hey do not they will be destroyed and democraxcy re-instated in te USA nd rue bythe Mexican cartels will end.   

In teh frst instance the Chinese Navy is building an operational base  on the Mexiocan West coach and that wil be stopped imediately,
