If only he was an idiot... things would be simpler. e.g... his very first decision as POTUS was to take the US out of the TPP... this mystified me at the time. The TPP was written by US business for US business, taking the US out left a gaping strategic hole ideal for China's purpose. Now... about 18 months later, Trump has launched a trade war using tariffs... ah bingo!!.... if he had signed up to the TPP he couldn't now be doing this.... meaning he has been planning this from the beginning.

Looking a bit further.... he has undone the whole World's effort to restrict Iran's nuclear program... another strange decision. Then... last week the Oz news lit up with reports he is planning to bomb their nuclear facilities... immediately denied. But how often has the Oz press gotten it right??? Very often.

The man is not stupid... but he over-rates himself and he is happy to hijack everyone's life [on the Planet!!] pursuing his own personal [and deeply flawed] interpretation of things.

Just to be clear... I am no fan of the Chinese administration. I think there has to be something seriously wrong with a person who sets himself as an Emperor... which in the scheme of things significantly adds to the danger in things going on.

Heard an interesting Aussie story about Trump ... back in the 1990s this media company in Queensland owning a few small newspapers hit on the brainwave of inviting him out here for a speech. Spent 1000s, paid him a big fee, sold tickets to the night. He stood them up, kept the fee & they went bust.
