Trump: The United States is considering stopping all trade with any country doing business with N.K.

[urvile]

It's like the sanctions against Iran, during which the USA kept selling stuff most of the time. But it threatens to punish other countries, many of which (mostly the smaller US allies) will refrain from selling out of fear. Meanwhile all those strong enough to show the US the middle finger (Russia, China) just keep on selling as well.

I haven't been following this really but isn't the US putting sanctions before the UN? Where china and russia will veto them anyway? Well to be less pessimistic might veto the sanctions? I know australia won't stop trading with china. They are our biggest trading partner. Followed by japan then south korea with the US at number 4.

Actually I was just thinking that what the US should do is resurrect tom clancy. Using gene splicing or something. Then get him to write a novel called the sum of all fears part II: Two nuclear armed mad men go toe to toe. Which climaxes with the US bombing NK (and if those upstart chinese commies get in the way we will bomb them too. Hell yeah!) while trump flies around in a helicopter hanging out of it holding a boom box blaring the theme song to team america: world police.

You are not in the middle east anymore and the US is no longer the dominant power in south east asia/south asia/asia you get the point right? America fuck yeah!

It's good there is some random australian kid in this as well....Australia fuck yeah we're coming to drink your mother fucking beer....

Do you get that china has so much economic influence now. That when it comes to trade it's more than likely that no one will listen to the US? If it came to that? Which it won't but if it did? China is our biggest trading partner by a significant margin while the US is number 4 by a significant margin. I actually don't think trump is an idiot he is a joke as president but even he must know how empty his threats are.

His family does a lot of business with china too. Could that be seen as a conflict of interest? Of course not. Trump fuck yeah!

Alrighty I have work to do. Then I am going to drink some beer. Don't get me wrong I do love you americans. Your foreign policy has kept me employed for years.

No way Trump follows through. He'd have to start making his products in America.

Just remember that he's the guy who purchased Chinese steel to build his empire with.

This is an interesting article on how china is boycotting south korean businesses due to the deployment of THAAD and how much it is costing said business. This comes back to how much economic influence china has. One SK business is looking at losses of 900 million USD .

"The Global Times, a state-run news outlet of China, criticized South Korea, claiming that THAAD does not differ at all from the nuclear weapons in North Korea in that it jeopardizes the strategic balance in Asia. The Chinese Foreign Affairs Ministry summoned South Korean Ambassador to China Kim Jang-soo again in just two months."

"Lotte Mart’s losses attributable to the suspension of business in China are estimated to reach one trillion won (US$900 million) this year alone. South Korean automakers, builders and so on are likely to suffer significant losses, too."
