Is it good the G7 summit ended in disarray as Trump puts ''America first?

Most of our trading partners have been imposing tariffs on U.S., imports for decades and now that America has a strong President who has put them on notice that the era of these one sided trade arrangements is over they're running around in confused disarray squawking like headless chickens.
America will win, hands down, any trade war. 
The Europeans and Asians know that if a full scale protectionist policy was adopted by the U.S., they would be the big time overall losers.
The days of countries such as Germany and China lending America money so the economy could support the imports from these nations are rapidly drawing to an end.
BUY ''MADE IN AMERICA'' GOODS AND PRODUCE.

Yes, for too long we have been an easy touch for the rest of the industrialized world whose governments took advantage of America's soft administrations.

Many Americans who have been overawed with foreign goods are now becoming disillusioned with such imports as the German car maker B.M.W., who have given a whole new meaning to the term;- the internal combustion engine as their vehicles burst into flames all over the world.

The *pinstriped German gangsters at VOLKSWAGEN would put the Russian and Italian mafia to shame as their German Engineers unlawfully included technology which meant that when tested, their vehicles would a show much lower Co2 emissions than they were actually producing on the road.

I agree, buy MADE in AMERICA or MADE in the U.K.

Yes, B.M.W. should describe their much publicized and over hyped GERMAN ENGINEERING as vehicles with the spontaneous combustion engines.

Trump is Putin's puppet, and now he's China's puppet too. Putin pulled Trumps ass out of the fire of insolvency probably more than once. China just bribed/bought Trump to the tune of half a BILLION dollars.

Trump is the LAST person to put America first.

Trump is a TRAITOR whose empire of lies is like a sand castle sitting just above a rising tide.

Okay, you've expressed your opinion which, although you've produced no evidence to back your defamatory claims of criminality, is worth considering.

For information purposes please note that you should have used the word ''whose empire'' and not ''who's empire''.

Thanks for the spell check.

As for evidence, a sane blind man can see it but in your case you'll have to wait a few more months.

He has NEVER put "America first". He puts "PUTRUMP, authoritarianism and EGO first"! America is (was) democracy. Democracy is being systematically destroyed by Putrump daily! If one can't see that, one is blind in one eye and can't see out of the other! Every democratic ally is spat upon while every dictator is praised! Putrump FIRST, America LAST! (And the blind will follow). :-(

He has NEVER put "America first".

Our GDP is nearly $20 trillion.

Unemployment is the lowest in decades.

The DOW hit 26,000 and is now consistently riding over 24,000. It was 18,000 when he took office.

He has pardoned multiple African Americans.

You were saying?

Old Crazy Al of Road Island shows up with the Progressive talking point about Democracy.

Dead giveaway Al you are a Progressive.

The only party that is looking for a Dicktatorship in America are the Progressives.

I met, and worked with, a LOT of rednecks over the years. Most were reasonably intelligent. I think ALL could spell Rhode Island correctly, I believe they'd know that progressive and democracy only are capitalized at the beginning of a sentence.

Dead giveaway that outlaw is probably the best example of a "dumb redneck", setting him (her?) apart from the more intelligent ones I knew. Most people shy away from looking DUMB, not so outlaw, he relishes the look!

Maybe he does seem overly, if not suspiciously pro-Putin but he is, in my opinion a true patriotic American who does ''put America first'' and isn't going to be deflected from his mission of ''putting the United States back on its feet'' by the collective whinging by the self serving governments of our trading partners.

Yes, he is conceited, yes he is autocratic, yes he is, like most successful people, egotistical. But he is getting things done.

He has the North Koreans ready to negotiate a denuclearization programme, he has made the Europeans and Chinese aware that the days of using America as a dumping ground for the over production of a range of goods is all over.

It worked out very well, actually. The Stock Market went from its lowest point to record highs, unemployment went to record highs to near its lowest point. Women's rights hit record highs, people got health insurance they couldn't afford before, banks got regulated to prevent them from ripping people off, we got rid of a couple of the worlds worst dictators, our allies felt comfortable with U.S., trusted U.S., trusted our President. Putin wasn't feeling so cocky, didn't have strong influence over the White House …. all this, and more, under conservative control of two of our branches of government (and the SCOTUS) … even Canada liked U.S.! Then, along came Trump.

Outlaw is like that old song: "Blinded by the right, fucked up like a douche in the middle of the night." (Well, something like that.) ;-)
