My negativity is only in relation to the Donald wayneL, I can't see any positives here. Nothing but fear, division, bullying, and lie after lie from this man and his cronies.
I do, however think this current saga will eventually lead to a positive outcome for humankind. If we must tolerate 4 years of having this incompetent a-hole running the show, americans will be desperate for positive change thereafter, I hope.
This strong anti-immigration & protectionist theme will surely not last forever, as we live in a world that has thrived & prospered on free trade and movement of people between countries for so long.
For those who have not read The Rational Optimist, I think now is a good time.
Stop romancing with yourself junior.......You are just another left wing Trump basher.
More Trump bashing.
Free trade is not a leftist ideology. I work in Financial Services, hardly a 'lefty' world.
I think your labelling is inaccurate. You don't know me, man.
I know quote a few in the financial services industry, and have a few clients also.Free trade is not a leftist ideology. I work in Financial Services, hardly a 'lefty' world.

Just today, i have been called both racist and sexist.OK then, perhaps I am a 'left-wing trump basher'. I've been called worse.

I don't know. But that's not what I was implying and you know it.Who call you that Sifu. I shall avenge you!
Come on Sifu, you're a bit... hmmm... what's the word when someone say they have friends who are X, and those X they know are all nice people, but other Xes are total bastards, all of them.
I don't know. But that's not what I was implying and you know it.
Bit of a straw man there my disingenuous friend.
The humorous thing is that you imagine your verbose transmogrification of facts and concepts is actually debate and convincing.
It ain't. Sorry.
Promise you would never look at any newspaper the same again.
I haven't looked at a newspaper for about 15 years, the paper version that is.
What's your secret?
Rupert.
Then there's the endless wars. Why we must spent billions a year on it at the expense of our domestic well being; how it's our patriotic duty to go kill and die for the country; and how it is perfectly normal that war profiteers can gouge all the cash they want.
Saw an interview with a former US marine who says how soldiers like him are no longer supplied by the gov't, but by private contractors. That a T-Shirt costs $50 where the same thing cost $5 at any shop; how a pair of boots costs $150 and does no more than a $50 ones.

I did the other day and wish I hadn't. Still a heavily biased, albeit trashy vehicle for the LNP up here. I can only imagine how many fools get their views from rags.
The level of US military spending is abhorrent. 3x the amount China spends and equivalent to the total spend of the next 8 biggest spending nations combined (or up to the next 13 biggest, depending which stats you use).
Imagine what could be achieved with those funds if they halved spending, for example? Universal free/affordable healthcare would be easily achievable, for example.
