The world belongs to the strong and moneyed. The weak wither slowly! Every country and region is spineless to mighty USA regardless of who is the President. I made so much money during Clinton, Bush 1 &2, Obama 1& 2, Trump 1, so so much during Biden (100x) , and now Trump 2 is also looking I will make a lot. He first sunk us by Tarriffs but it looks like stock market has become resilient and no longer swing like a pendulum from his mouth!

There are no 'agreements'. These talks take even ten years as bureaucrats state capturers check mate crazy politicians hot air, wild goose chases as one the bimbo is on.

Then other political bimbos come. Hot air charades.

A framework and deal are two different things
Itll be a while before final deal

Seem Modi now stop ass-kissing Trump - after getting asante ya punda - heading to China to nurse trade wounds there.

Modi is wishy-washy fence-sitter like Erdogan. Major Non-NATO Ally bla, bla.. Now get badly sanctionned he will dust-off his Global South ties.

BRICS need to come up with joint strategy to deal with Trump mayhem.
