What a pile of baloney. "Can no longer act as global policeman"????? Right, just ignore the threats re Greenland, Panama; ignore the perpetual rearming of Israel, the explicit support of ethnic cleansing in Palestine. It doesn't matter what Trump says, the intractable demands of capital accumulation drive the conflicts in the world markets which tend to become more acute. And Trump as a steward of fiscal responsibility determined to prevent a debt crisis? The man represents the class-- a serial bankrupter-he is the agent of the asset-liquidationist bourgeoisie. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
