Trump and the MAGA party threatens to shut down our govt every few months. I think world shipping will prefer the more stable government of Panama at this point

The big T will soon demand that the earth stop spinning. What an embarrassment the Project 2025ers are.

Panama Canal is settled. Unless your mind lives in 1920.

He is sending a message that he owns North and Central American.
He has total control.

This is how fascists operate.

and the pronouncements are bold, expansive, he owns it all he says. But Congress is skeptical of his power. Just because he says it doesn't make it so. It's like the famous example of the Fed, pushing on a string.

Why aren't we trying to steal Trump's victory the way he tried to steal ours? Wouldn't that be just? Turnabout is fair play.

He wants to establish control over the entire region.
And damage our alliances.

Russia wants Ukraine and control over Europe.
China wants Taiwan and control over the Pacific.

Trump has apparently been given North and Central America.

It is the new fascist global order.

This is one reason Trump has to get control over the US military.

The deals are not invisible, they are pretty much out in the open for anyone to see.

China and Russia have not been hiding their plans at all.

He not only seeks to destabilize the world for his good friend Putin.. I think he's actively looking to annex land outside the lower 49 states, such to become either a maga safe world, or to lock up the resistors in an area away from the rest of America, hence diluting their influence. Now he's not smart enough to come up with this on his own, but Bannon and Musk and Miller are....

I think the larger the land mass the more likely to create an alternative US. Plus, Trump is just basically following Mein Kampf... worldwide dominion and control. King os the US isn't enough... he wants to be world emperor.

For the sake of power and financial gain.

He wishes to be the richest man in the world and grabbing other countries' land and resources
could make him quite wealthy. And powerful.

Yes he wishes to destabilize the world so Putin and Xi can rise to power.
And he is providing cover for China's grab of Taiwan and Pacific territory.
And Putin's invasion of countries in Europe.

It is the new world order. Trump gets North and Central America, Putin gets Europe, Xi the Pacific.

While Americans obsess about the price of eggs, the world is being divided up.

buy Greenland from Denmark!

Why the H not.

Over the last 20 years it's invasion fleet has grown from 21 Battleships (aka trawlers) to 23, and 97 drones (aka kites) heavily armed with discarded rum bottles.

Their plan is to invade Malibu as soon a climate change lowers the Pacific Ocean to 27fr.

Sick mofo thinks he can just take over possession of anything if he wants it?

the acual reality is that the canal is very vulnerable to terrorism, sabotage or attack, all less likely if a neutral country : panama is in control.

I’m sure he’s got this one…

How much more embarrassing can it get?

This is nothing more than the same old stale and tired shtick this moron always pulls to get attention and drive the news cycle. Don't give him the satisfaction of discussing it in any serious way, it's only suitable as fodder to mock his buffoonery.

As soon as he has done the same thing in Ukraine and the Middle East.

Why?

More power

47 U.S. Code § 606 - War powers of President

You people sleeping or what? Besides Nicaragua is going to dig another canal.

I remember the outrage when President Carter did this in the SEVENTIES. Trump is reaching back about something that really no one cares about. The canal works and it should be Panama’s.

I wrote a paper in law school arguing that the original treaty wasn't properly ratified and thus is invalid.

I don't actually think it was by any means iron clad, highly technical and almost assuredly not something I thought anyone would jump on.

I better go burn it lol

. . . more and more every day.

Arrest anyone who has ever said a negative word about him; make Canada the 51st state; war on Mexico; establish a "warrior panel" to decide which admirals and generals are "warriors" and fire the rest; take back the Panama Canal.

Is Cuba next? We could dust off the Bay of Pigs, "Remember the Maine", and charge up San Juan Hill.

Biden or those around him need to say something on this. By Biden saying something or anything, will help him look engaged. The orange man is able to look strong when he is not even the MAN yet. We should encourage Biden to look strong on the way out. Rock on Biden! Kamala can look strong to tell the orange man to back down too!

Record breaking number of judges appointed; more women and POC judges; went back to Washington on the weekend before Christmas to sign the budget bill that Congress won over DT's wishes; and I am sure doing plenty of work behind the scenes on critical international issues.

Joe doesn't need us to tell him what to do.

Thats just a drop in the bucket towards the billions needed to extend the canal life.

Trump keeps up his tariff BS Panama should slap greater fees to use it.

All those anti-war folks told me so during two campaigns.
