Re: Asian politics
It's pretty terrifying when nuclear powers go to war with each other. Good luck out there everyone No reason to be worried. The nuclear weapons are in the great hands of the likes of Putin, Trump, Xi Jingpin, Kim Jong-Un, Netanyahu and Modi. No reason to assume these great leaders will do something...

Re: US Politics Megathread
Say you were an outside observer looking at our planet and you saw a place that was importing a lot of useful stuff and exporting a bunch of paper in return. Who would you think is winning in that transaction? As long as employment in the US is high, its trade deficit is a good thing. assuming outs...

Okay yeah mexico and anti immigration was another thing but what about europe, allies,india and other countries? Again, why are you surprised by this?
