>>60923734The US is 40% of all world consumption. We have all of the leverage and he knew it. The level to which we weren't using it was absurd and borderline treacherous.
>>60923769Foreigners get the bullet.Either pay to access our economy or die poor.\If you don't like it, do to war with us so we can take your land too.
