Why did he have to bite at all?? Is my question. And the US is not the only country with money. Atm most democratic countries consider the US ideologically closer than China. Trump is changing that equation. Trump is drawing to autocratic countries, while at the same time making himself an unreliable partner.America has great friends if the money is right. And those great friends will take the money and shit on Uncle Sam. Trump bites back. Get used to it.How is American sovereignty helped by pissing of the British? As I pointed out, it's probably the only European country left that isn't completely disgusted with Trump. And if they draw to China, is that in America's best interest?--------------------------------------------- cavalier , impulsiveness while i say that Trump has well thought out plans and Trump is aware of what American Sovereignty is . Where will the Brits go , will they welcome the Chinese [maybe iran] or what because i don't know and i don't think that britain is very strong for more than a third world Falklands . Maybe the world is realigning and Trump and his advisors realize that fact Forkup !!America is the leader because the world accept them as such. Trump is being incredibly cavalier about maintaining decent relationships with his historical allies. Even worse his impulsiveness as demonstrated here threatens the few relationships that so far are clearly in his camp. That's kind of the point of this OP. Saying it's "take it or leave it" is all well and good, but beware that being the leader of the world is a status that can be lost, and it's Trump's own action that very well may cause this.----------------------------------------------- its my opinion that the USA is the leader and has been since the end of ww2 , if the Brits and others don't want to play by American rules they can leave .I guess it's a reply to something, just not what I ask. Why is it a good idea for Trump to vent his opinion so openly, when that opinion damages one of the only halfway decent relationships left with a democratically elected government?
