Apparently his Whitehouse staff later said what he really meant was $100 BILLION DOLLARS! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Remember when the Dow Jones was peaking a Trump was tweeting daily about it being due to him? Its dropped about 9% since then and, coincidently, he doesn’t tweet about it any more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've read about him he'd nuke Iran tomorrow if given half a chance, and Trump seems keen to engineer some kind of conflict with them. Expect to see more talk of the US pulling out of the nuclear deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's three sides in the US on the Iran deal in the US. The hard core pro-Israelis who can't forget about Iran taking their Tehran embassy staff hostage, like Pompeo and Bolton, and a scary amount of people in Congress.There's pragmatists like Mattis, Tillerson and McMaster who realise that honouring an imperfect deal is far better than dumping it, especially as the other parties will likely keep it going. And there's Trump, who got to play sword dancing in Riyadh and got his face plastered all over the buildings and does whatever he's told by Bin Salman. Mattis will be next out of the door, replaced by Scaramucci no doubt. This isn't real, we're sharing a mad soap opera created by AD 3057 doctors to try and bring us back to consciousness slowly from fragments of early 21st century history. Hope they still have football. P.S. One of the few things Trump has been consistent about is about wasting money and lives(not so much) on foreign wars. He was caught on a brief radio clip before the Iraq war saying maybe, but that's about it. If the rest of the partners to the Iran deal stay strong, and maybe make up to Iran some of the cost of the US backing out, then it might not be too bad. Airbus could pick up a few Boeing contracts for instance. Edited March 23, 2018 by welshbairn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
