WOW!
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responded to Trump’s threats with a backhand…
“So, you voted to build a wall.
Well, dear Americans, even if geography isn’t your strong suit, since you consider America a country rather than a continent you should know that beyond that wall, there are 7 billion people.
The word people might not resonate with you, let’s call them consumers.
These 7 billion consumers can switch from iPhones to Samsung or Huawei in less than two days.
They can swap Levi’s for Zara or Massimo Dutti and, within six months, replace Ford and Chevrolet with Toyota, KIA, Mazda, Honda, Hyundai, Volvo, Subaru, Renault, or BMW..Brands that often outperform in quality.
They can cancel Direct TV, and though they might not want to, they can stop watching Hollywood films in favour of higher-quality productions from Latin America or Europe, which offer richer narratives and better cinematography.
Believe it or not, people can skip Disney and instead visit the Xcaret resort in Cancun, or explore destinations in Mexico, Canada, South America, and Europe. In Mexico, you’ll find better hamburgers than McDonald's, with superior nutritional value.
Have you ever seen pyramids in the U.S.?
Egypt, Mexico, Peru, Guatemala, and Sudan all have ancient wonders, none of them in the U.S.
If they did, Trump would probably have bought and sold them by now.
We know that Nike isn’t the only sneaker brand..There’s Adidas, and even Mexican brands like Panam.
We understand the economy more than you think.
And we also know that if these 7 billion consumers stop buying American products, unemployment will rise, and your economy trapped within its self-imposed wall will crumble to the point where you'll beg us to tear it down.We didn’t want to do this, but...you wanted a wall?
Well, you got one.”
Her approval ratings to historical levels, with one recent poll putting her support at 85 percent!
BREAKING: In a shocking development Canada announces it will build a coalition of countries who share their values to build their economy and trade opportunities and will exclude the United States.
“If the U.S. no longer wants to lead, Canada will.”
Ronald Reagan has a message for MAGA as Trump declares trade wars against our allies:
“We should beware of the demagogues who are willing to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world, all while cynically waving the American flag."
@fiercefreckled It's either a fake video from that conference or it must be golden-brown water he is drinking. I mean it's a daytime event! He swore under oath that he has his drinking under control. So it must clearly be colored water.😀😀 Our military needs and deserves a sober leader
@alixabeth I highly recommend this book. Visionary as it was published in 1998
The Fourth Turning
It forecasts the current destruction of the administrative state as well as a number of events.
@alixabeth Subtitle:
Roots, Rampage, Reckoning
Is that the new 3 'R's - basic skill set for schools. So instead of reading writing and arithmetic we learn
Roots - tribe, gang, religion, race etc
Rampage - violent protest, mass killings, intimidation etc
Reckoning - more like the 4th turning
