Trump, who has a skull like everyone else but an empty one, is uneasy about Prime Minister Starmer’s trade agreement with China. In a statement today, he described the agreement as dangerous. Actually, making an agreement with the USA is wrong. Because someone like Trump can emerge and threaten allies. He can pressure and threaten them with tariff blackmail. The dangerous thing is trusting the USA and following them. Europe has fought for American interests until now, and thanks to Trump, it now sees that it has its own interests.
Trump’s concern isn’t the UK or any other country; it’s the interests of the USA. He thinks the UK-China agreements are harming the USA’s global interests. That’s possible, it’s Trump’s problem, not ours. But instead of thinking about other countries and giving advice to other countries, Trump should return to his own country. He should first satisfy his own people, and instead of killing with ICE guerrillas, he should think about the economy. Other countries’ problems concern other countries. Our problems concern us. Trump runs the country like his own corporations, but his blackmail tactics have made even his closest allies suspicious. They’ve realized that the USA could sell them out at any moment.
The UK and Starmer aren’t going to learn from Trump whether relations with China are dangerous or not. Trump is now on the defensive. Trump, who previously lectured everyone with threats, is now furious that the UK, following Canada, has also made deals with China. Someone needs to tell Trump: the USA era is over. UBA presidents can no longer determine world policy…
