Posts: 6685A rare point of agreement
Actually a point of agreement. Several of my fellow Americans speak of China without knowledge or facts of the situation. I have to admit to ignorance until I spend extensive time on this side of the world. China exports products to the entire world. I have seen BYD vehicles up close and in person as I have been picked up in them when I have had the occasion to use the Bolt ride service. They roll fire equipment off the line faster and for much lower cost than companies in the United States of America. USA Fire Departments cannot buy Chinese Equipment by law. China exports them to the rest of the world. They have a new commercial airliner that will be available for customers on this side of the world.

Chinese motorcycle are hitting the market with high quality, more tech, more power, lest cost. Way less cost than other manufacturers. The USA is a big market. But for China it is not the only market out there.
As for the predicted decline in the USA, it is already happening. But like anything else in life a turn around is possible. Don't know if I will live long enough to see who wins that bet. But is does not matter. I am excising my Constitutional rights and pursuing my happiness.
I give credit where credit is due. I have no need to engage in ad hominem attacks. I got facts on my side.

Impossible to have a conversation with someone only interested in engaging in ad hominem attacks.

Over simplification and failure to read and understand the law of the land (in this case the Dis-United States of America) causes lack of understanding of the legal processes that occur in that land.
It does not matter how slowly I read something. If POTUS does not uphold his OATH there is recourse available as laid out in the the Constitution of the United States of America.

Impeachment
https://www.senate.gov/about/powers-...mpeachment.htmThe United States Constitution provides that the House of Representatives "shall have the sole Power of Impeachment" (Article I, section 2) and "the Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments but no person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two-thirds of the Members present" (Article I, section 3). The president, vice president, and all civil officers of the United States are subject to impeachment.
If you are a guest and you get sideways with the law you are going to get deported. If you are arguing the fine point of Constitutional Law with a citizen of the Dis-United States of America you are going to have to back up your statements with quotes from the Constitution. Over simplification is your problem HotDog666. Start with the what the Constitution says then the law.
You are entitled to your own opinions but not your own facts

Posts: 250To add to this- yes, the debt fuelled real estate build is one of the dumbest things the CCP has presided over and it's destroyed trillions of $ in this. It's had and will continue to have a significant drag on their economic performance. However, I don't see their following the Japanese into a deflationary spiral for two reasons: firstly, they have an immense amount of dry powder being the world's biggest debtor and the world's biggest saver. In fact this is their biggest weakness in that they just save way too much and consume too little, but it's also their biggest strength with regards to America being the world's biggest creditor. Who would you rather be given the choice? The second reason is admittedly less objective but still valid: it's their culture. They unlike the Japanese who have succumbed to a westernesque complacency, have still a chip on their shoulder, something to prove, a hunger and a drive and passion that the Japanese abandoned a long time ago. They are still suffering from the humiliation of the opium wars and a burning desire to wash off that humiliation through growth. They do this through both noble and ignoble means in my experience. The latter is how they waste food to indicate their wealth (the trauma of starvation from the 60's still lives in the national psyche) and this is something I've been very unimpressed by.

Napoleon warned " don't wake the sleeping dragon for when it wakes it will shake the world". Well the dragon is wide awake and the onus is on America now to determine how it deals with this, we all will bear the consequences of your strategy.

Posts: 7455Nothing like this has happened since Trump's Pandemic Part 1
Oh, those poor MAGA manufacturers and farmers who are the hardest hit today while their American Working Men and Women Consumer customers will most definitely be hit even harder in the next few weeks and beyond. Well, as long as Trump or any other Trumpian Repub is in the White House, that is.
Trump tariffs slump widens to 'nearly all USA Exports,' supply chain data says.
https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/06/trum...ndroidappshare
Dispite what the MAGAs' favorite and most beloved America-hating con man tries to con you into thinking, this isn't just about dolls and pencils, folks.An exports slide that began in early 2025 has reached most ports across the U.S. and nearly all export market products as the trade impact of President Trumps tariffs worsens, with agriculture the hardest hit.
As businesses cancel orders from China, U.S. imports continue to plummet, with a 43% week-over-week drop in containers through April 28.
We havent seen anything like this since the disruptions of summer 2020, said Kyle Henderson, CEO of trade tracker Vizion.
..........
What began as a rapid drop in U.S. imports as shippers cut orders from manufacturing partners around the world has now extended into a nationwide export slump, with the U.S. agricultural sector and top farm products including soybeans, corn, and beef taking the hardest hit.

Posts: 250The problem with your idea of who the constitution is for, Elvis, is that while it's easy to disregard its breach when it's in your favour it's not so great when the tables turn. The constitution isn't "for" anyone in general. It's literally an articulation of the fundamental principles governing a state.

America (by your own admission) got it's break on slavery, and the UK and Western Europe expropriated unimaginable wealth from their colonies. My view is it is what it is, we all need to get off our own high horses. As for subsidies, for sure China has done these once again, so what? As if the west hasn't. You really think Boeing hasn't been vastly subsidised? Tesla? Airbus? It is what it is. None of this really negates the point I've made about China rivalling American supremacy.
With reference to the American Navy, there's zero % chance of America successfully compelling the Middle East or other oil producers from importing oil into China, upon which reliance is diminishing anyhow as they are going renewable at a breakneck speed. The only relevance of the American military is on Taiwan. Military strategists admit themselves that within 5-7 years they will no longer have the upper hand here. I do not approve of China's Taiwanese stance- I'm just laying the facts out.
On tariffs, there is again a zero % chance of America "bringing home production". Firstly, it's not something you can just flip a switch on. A lot of the production capabilities require great skill and expertise, which America simply lacks. Secondly, these kinds of facilities take decades to build and most importantly, even if you could bring back production (you can't and won't) the cost would be massively prohibitive. Your Iphone would double in price. That's why they're shifting to India. It's not going to happen.
The tariffs haven't affected inflation yet because they haven't kicked in. Let's touch base at Christmas. But we know they won't even then because Trump will cave in to China. He's caved in so much already they should call him the Caveman.
Look, the bottom line is on one side you have a multiple bankrupt who wrote "the Art of the Deal", yet displays a total lack of understanding of how to do a deal, having alienated friends and empowered enemies. On the other side you have a 5000 year civilisation which wrote "the Art of War". I know who my money is on.

One of these statements is true. The other is necessarily false.
That's all there is to the matter. You don't need to thank me, and you certainly don't need to squeal like a piggy, boy.

Posts: 7455Uh. Nope. Sorry. You are wrong again
On the issue of due process and likely everything else pertinent to the current destruction of America by Trump and his MAGA slaves, the USA Constitution refers to "persons" in the country, not "citizens" in the country.

BTW, the NYT also published extensive verified reports on this subject, how and why Biden's brilliant use of immigration contributed mightily to the reason America recovered faster and stronger from Trump's Pandemic than any other country, but our resident NYT subscriber who loves quoting entire articles from that and other media has mysteriously never bothered to post those particular subscriber-restricted reports. Probably just a MAGA oversight. LOL:
How immigrants are helping keep job growth hot while inflation cools.
June 17, 2024
https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/17/immi...ndroidappshare
BTW, the reason the market rose modestly over the past 9 sessions or so is because it has merely been trading within the Sell-Off and Correction level Trump's disastrous trade wars and tariffs blather drove it down into "unlike anything anyone has ever seen" in the first 100 days of a presidential term other than under one other "American nightmare" Repub president. I'll leave the research for which one that was to you.Immigration has helped the U.S. job market sustain a fiery run in recent months without reigniting inflation, economists and analysts say.
The U.S. economy added a whopping 272,000 jobs in May, but the consumer price index was unchanged.
This dynamic a hot job market and cooling inflation is in part the result of increased inflows of immigrants.
Recent spikes in immigration at the southern border and elsewhere in the U.S. have helped keep the labor pool full even as job gains kept apace.
The market would have fallen much lower by now under Trump's Classic Repub Policies and Stewardship but for the fact that the Envy of the World Economy created by Biden-Harris and handed to Trump on a silver platter was too damn good to be destroyed so quickly and easily by an incoming Repub this time around.
But that Repub will sure as hell keep trying!

Posts: 7455A brilliant overview, well worth reading or watching
The conning of dumb Repub hillbillies and thereby fleecing of America has been a longtime effort by elites, billionaires, Globalists and the like:
How billionaires created the DEI panic.
See the video too.
5/5/2025
https://www.mediamatters.org/critica...ated-dei-panic
Wokeism
Reinventing the PC panic with cancel culture worked so well, why not do it again? A few months later, a new moral panic emerged on the right around wokeism.
The formula was exactly the same: Minorities have taken control, theyre silencing conservatives, you cant tell the truth anymore. And just like with political correctness and cancel culture, the wokeism panic was fueled by minor anecdotes amplified by right-wing media. A Fox News host announced that Lego is going woke, for instance, after the company unveiled a range of characters with disabilities.
(And so much more. See article)

Posts: 6685Requires for you to have a mind in the first place!
After that objective is achieved then you need to learn how to critically think. Something I see little of in the posts from our contingent of Republican Morons.
No one is advocating for the illegal immigration.

Posts: 6685POTUS is making USA (insert color here) again! (insert color here) LOVE IT!
Individuals posting up here seem to have a American centric world view. There are a few notable exceptions: Spidy and Eih Tooms. Those are individuals who are not taking information they receive from main stream media, swallowing it and then regurgitating us like a cow chewing it's cud.
The Republican Morons and the guests that are supporting them with their racist attitudes need to travel a bit more and get some world perspective. It is very interesting looking at the West from a half a world away through a completely different lens. I don't recognize my country of origin anymore. We have people up in posting racist statements, people supporting police brutality based on race and people who claim to love America but fly to South American to fuck Latinas. Hell even POTUS does not fuck American (unless it is a porn start).
The OP wants to go back to the days of slavery. Look at this:
Example supporting the OPs positionNope, sorry, the US Constitution is for Americans not people who come to our country illegally and commit crimes, and when we were founded as a nation, we had slaves and only land owners could vote.
While discussing the bill, State Sen. La Keisha Jackson said the original U.S. Constitution language doesnt directly address race and ethnicity when defining people. But, the Three-Fifths Compromise clause in the U.S. Constitution counted enslaved people as three-fifths of a person for purposes of representation and taxation, Jackson, D-Indianapolis, said.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/...-a-great-move/
I wonder if the Republican Morons dream of a return to those glory days when the (insert color of your choice here) man was on top!
After all they had ALL the bitches! They didn't need to pay prostitutes. They had their (insert color of your choice here) girls in the house and their (insert color of your choice here) girls in the fields. SHIT! I lived like that I would want to go back to those days also. Being a MOTHER FUCKNG king on your plantation. Judge, Jury and Executioner all wrapped up in one. None of this messy democracy to deal with.
America what a MOTHER FUCKING country!Before an income tax and women could vote, the USA was the #1 economy in the world.
