Will Our 'Special Relationship ' With The Usa Save Us From The Proposed Tarrifs?

Or is the relationship more treasured by us than them?

Unfortunately too many are focusing on the administration’s (questionable) approach to immigration and the US economy 

He's working on making America great in other ways

The Department of Health and Human Services has also withdrawn funding of 12 Billion worth of healthcare grants.

// The grants were being used to track, prevent and control infectious diseases, including measles and bird flu, as well as track mental health services and fund addiction treatment, said lawmakers and state governors, who sharply criticized the move. // 

A colossal amount of overseas aid for vaccine programs has also been withdrawn. It's obviously OK with the Trump administration that children will suffer and die of easily preventable diseases...and that other diseases will be spread globally. 

Oh, and don't forget the closure of the Department of Education

At least Trump is doing something right-he has removed the visa for some stupid Turkish student who was a leading light in the anti-semitic,pro-Hamas terrorist supporting gang over there in the US.

If I was an American & I wanted a Mercedes or a Jaguar, I ain't going to buy a Chevrolet instead, therefore my cost of living has increased.

I'm not sure if the Donald grasps this simple fact.

I'm sure you're putting words into their mouths.

It's much more likely they were calling for the end of Israeli terror bombing of innocent civilians and initial steps towards a solution that would bring peace.

We do not have a special relationship with America.

It has always had one with Israel, and seems to be currently developing one with Russia.

One doesn't make one's country great by threatening and cheesing off it's allies. "Export or die", applies to nations in a similar manner as to companies.

 

Protected trade areas develop manufacturing that doesn't need to try too hard for the consumer.  They can produce cheap, inferior products & services because they're protected; until the day they're not.  Then the dirt hits the fan.
