@RWorfel1 she has spent the past three and a half years being vice-president. Has represented the USA in many overseas trips, gathered vital geopolitical information, met and conversed with dozens of other world leaders. I would argue she has already had much more experience than you recognise. Maybe because she does not mention „best ever“ „greatest crowd“ „no one else has ever …“ about herself enough for you?

@geng8667 have you ever wondered why.? Except they thought they could just watch the spectacle from afar Little did they know that the stink bomb would waft across the ocean.

@anneolsen4181. Of course, why would Trump ‘rescue’ those with no say? However, they need to earn their keep and the strawberries need picking - so?

Why is he sitting slumped in that armchair?

When he says taxing foreign nations. He surely means. Imposing import tax or duty on goods coming in from overseas. He did this before to „punish“ Chima. Only China does NOT pay the extra fee. Not sure he understands, but duties and import taxes are paid uktimately by the consumer; Americans. It can work by making imports more expensive, so people buy American made. However Trump taxed imported steel, which made American manufacturing of metal items, engines etc, more expensive. The treasury did cash in, but at expense of the American consumer, not the foreign supplier! Thatvis what his vision of taxing foreign countries actually means.

@JonathanRobson-b6j it does not sound like you are from the U.K. What difference should it make to us in the U.K. which party the Canadians support in their own country?

He did not say he would be taxing US imports to pay for child care. He did not say what he would spend this extra layer of taxation on. Last time he reduced the tax on the rich. Import duties and taxation can help raise the costs of imported finished goods (like Ivanka‘s clothing business imports) and make them less competitive to local US produced items. However last time Trump did this it made imported steel more expensive for US manufacturers so had the opposite effect. Yes Donald IS a con man. He knows import tariffs go straight into the US treasury and he can use them immediately. He is therefore taxing his own people indiscriminately under the guise of punishing the nasty foreign countries!

@TerrenceHughes he is putting Tarifs on the metals imported to be used in car manufacturing too.

Americans are too obsessed with looks and physical fitness. President Roosevelt was in a wheelchair did what was needed in WW2. Trump lies and works only in self interest. ALL his self promoting statements were lies. He wants to destroy democracy. Biden will protect it. He knows what is important and knows how to get it done. Slipping up on words (being dyslexic I know this) is not important. What is intended is, and knowing right from wrong. Contra to what is being spun in your media. Biden is respected worldwide for his upright honesty and the role he represents. Trump is considered a disloyal self-centred ego-maniac and very destructive human being. This is just how he comes across from afar. Trump may be held in respect by Putin, Xi, Kim Un and other dictator disrupters, I do nit kniwv too much about them But I suspect Putin, who considers himself a strategist genius, thinks Trump only as a useful tool, easily flattered hence bribable.

@americanpatriot6484 you mean you have not been listening?

@fletcherreed3259 on which of the issues you have researched did Trump tell the truth about?
2
Taxes on goods from foreign countries are NOT Paid by the sender. They are paid by the importers, ultimately by the American cosumer. The Import duty (these big numbers he says) goes to the US Treasury, but are paid by the American consumers - not the foreign companies!

@anneolsen4181. By attacking the workforce and universities Trump is telling you all to get back in the fields! Plus have more babies! That is an ORDER!

Why not true? Do your children not learn about taxation? Basics on Import/Export. Corporation tax, car tax, income tax, VAT (sales tax). And on imports Duty and import tax(tariffs) You do not tax your exports! Or is it because we are an island that the difference between overseas and inland is Cristal clear? It would be much harder to explain how an import tax can possibly be paid by an exporting Company, when it is outside your jurisdiction! You cannot! You can only tax what comes under your own Jurisdiction.

@KenZaracki whoever they have, they voted for and can vote out again if they wish. No business of yours how Canadians care to live. Same applies for your country too. Assuming Trump does not copy Putin and change the constitution to lengthen his stay (also for family members to continue the dynasty?). You also have what you voted for. Each to their own.

There were three of them taking part in that ambush. Earlier on one guy standing behind Vance asked why he was not wearing a suit. Sounding very confrontational he continued: „Is that not disrepectful? You are invited to the Whitehouse, yet do not even wear a suit.? “ Zelenskyy started to reply, but was ignored. And overspeaking him continues.“…do you even OWN a suit?“ So rude and this pattern of bombardment the other two: Trump,and Vance continued with. Could even have been rehearsed. It was definately a staged attack. As Trump said: „I think it a good thing the people hear.this, otherwise I would not have let it last this long“ Says to me he had deliberately PLANNED to humiliate Zelenskyy. Why? Jealous of the praise this wartime leader is getting? Ended up in my opinion showing himself up. Was this spectacle broadcast to amuse Putin? Or to entertain his MAGA supporters?

The real reason Trump loves that word Tariffs is because they are paid straight into the treasury before the goods can be released from Customs. No waiting for the annual Company accounts, no waiting untill the finished product is sold in retail. Even if the imported products remain unsold. The import tax has been paid and is instantly available for Trump to use. And yes, of course it is the US citizen that pays via the increase in costs to the importers.

Using Executive orders. Trump is by-passing them.

JSox3.0C-r2r Sending „thoughts and prayers.“ Sorry, a bit sick, but could not resist. I do genuinely sympathise though. Vance taking over possibly even worse! Hopefully they do not manage to do a Putin and change the constitution to stay in power, (which Trump hinted at.) Regards x.

People, especially the Young May have not watched it on TV. They use media, streaming etc. at a later dare. Then they hear all the post debate Hu-Ha over their media and possibly read the papers. So only the reaction of others.

It is because the USA is already a Russian world order country. Trump, Musk, Carlson all use Putin speak. Putin has his private armies in places like Mali, Central Afrika etc . They pip their soldiers in exchange for timber and minerals extraction. This is how Trump got the idea that instead of supporting Ukraine, leading to Europe, leading to the wider world from being stollen by Putin‘s imperialistic intentions he could turn his contributions into mercenary. The USA has sold its soul. Now an mercenary nation

@spencerwilson4221 Putin always wears a suit and tie. Can you imagine that nut-head asking the Arab leader why he was not wearing a suit, Or Kim Jung-Un? Or Modi of India? That was just part of Trumps revenge on Zelenskyy plan. And Vance mentioning Zelenskyy‘s visit to the factiry making the bombs to be shipped to Ukraine on invitation ofbthe governed, becausevhe happened to be a Democrate! They have WON this time around, but still cannot abandon their childish and revengeful point scoring. Trump says Zelenskyy. Should put aside all the abductions tortures of his citizens. murdering pows etc, yet he continues to harbour hate and forever repeating his gripes (mostly unfounded) from years ago.

Trump loves tariffs because it guarantees huge sums of money direct into the treasury at point of docking. Tarifs are paid before the goods can be released from customs, by the US importer. Trump has the money to give tax relief to his rich buddies. He does not care that it is the US end- consumers that ultimately pays. But also Duty / tariff is paid wether the items gett sold or not. A huge extra expense for manufacturers wholesalers etc.

THEIR job is not to bring down democracy. De Joy‘s job as head of the postal service was NOT to destroy those sorting machines. Trump had his hand in that too. He wants to win by hook or by crook. It just so happens that by crook is against American values. He is not interested in winning fairly.

you mean most populous? Sounds like a recommendation for the plague!

@AndrewMcColl No one does. Trump’s fanatics antiabortion campaign was based 100% on scaremongering disinformation. And women are now dying because of it.

@beeman1246 you could actually have something there. Here in the Uk we have libel laws and spreading hate speech or enticement to violence can bring court cases. However in Russia The regime actually PAYS thousands of hackers and individuals to deliberately spread misinformation in a bid to create Chaos and regime collapse in other countries. Where as any criticism of the powers that be leads to imprisonment, or poisoning or a fall from a high window. Or most recently if you need hospital care, which costs too much, you are sent on crutches to the front line.

I have offen wondered. Why Trump and his followers do not seem to understand that tarriffs on incoming goods make imported goods more expensive. And that the consumers (Americans) pay more for these goods.. the only effect on the exporter (China in this case) is it makes their goods more expensive for the buyers in America. Includes your manufactures needing Chinese steel. So they may find other sources or reduce hiw much they buy from ächina. But it is American citizens that pays the fees into the US treasury NOT the Chinese.
