No one should knees down for convicted fallen Trump.
I wonder how the USA would manage if ALL countries holding US debt were to sell off 1-2% of their bond shares? Trump behaving like a Mafia Don as a building developer (which is what he did) is very different from playing the same game with trade and the economy on a Global stage. Somebody should be urging Trump to start CALLING OTHER world LEADERS "begging for a deal"!!
American government can buy American government bonds.
Then when the bonds mature, the American government can cash it in.
Then the American debt can be paid off. (more bonds bought, the faster the debt can be paid off)
The media is all over this, but is something being hidden?
Bye bye reserve currency 😂😂😂
So he might not be the stable genius that he claims to be? I listen to a lot of his comments and he is not widely read, nor does he have wide experience of the world. Not a man who should have ever made it to the White House, that is of course unless you are a greedy oligarch!
Your AI isn't working. Canada has 378 billion.
The Bretton Woods conference took place in 1944 – during WW2 not after! Sheez!
I hope Trump watches this video. I believe he knows nothing about this.
He says Belgium twice while the Flag of India is shown, which he leaves out. And this happens twice in the video ?!
the guest is good…1 euro is only 0.88 euro cents….
America is home to some of the biggest multinational corporations
I hope they do it. Just like America waiting for the British Empire to be weakened during WWII before they joined and could claim super power status. China is doing the same now to America.
There wouldn’t be a “need for talks” if trump didn’t start these trade wars. How silly start a fight and expect talks?
Trump is 100%chaos. America's economy will go down the drain together with MAGA voters.
Chinesedisinformation
We are witnessing the downfall of the US of A
Dreaming is free but reality sucks!
So, when does he goes nutz? I’m disappointed with the ending. 😾
The US is effectively owned by others, China is not the enemy, just a shareholder like Japan and Canada. DoofUS is an idiot if he did not understand that. The guy went to Wharton right?? One wonders if he actually attended classes.
The USA never won anything without bombs and war during their entire history.. not in your history books but true. All wars since WW2 were started by the USA. China building infrastructure and moving their people out of poverty.. It's the USA billionaires that went to China for profits and FUCKED the American Middle class and ordinary citizen.. USA loosing again and may started another war military.
Well many of those new money country s are lead by crappy rich n warmonger leaders and not an improvement of the world for most and bible says one money then it collapses
Now conditions is not very good for world. Why dont you Americans get action by impeached D.j.T for better condition for world. ❤❤❤
But does this mean that Trump may someday realize that it’s the US that’s been living off the rest of the world for the past 80 years?
There are exactly two currencies in this world.
Spoiler alert: It's not yuan and not ruble…
Trump thinks he’s holding most of the good cards. Problem is he’s playing blackjack while the rest of the world is playing happy families.
USA jest najgorszym od 100 lat ludobujca, niewinnych narodów? Przemocą zmusza świat do używania dolara drukowanego z papieru opartego tylko na przemocy? 😮😊
Tariffs may protect some jobs in the short term, but they also raise costs for manufacturers who rely on imported materials. There's always a trade-off.
sounds ljke the AI has hiccups
Japan was selling U.S. treasury bonds from a business point of view considering the American domestic and global financial situation, while China is now selling them to punish America for tariffs; but the impacts are the same!
USA deserves what will come ..you voted in the ReTurd
