Amazing that we basically gave Iran $400m for no reason, like "here, I dunno what to do with all this so just take it."

It appears Obama made deals where we gave and got nothing in return. We apparently got nothing done in Syria despite all of O`s rhetoric about not needing air strikes because diplomacy got it done. We gave Iran $400m, wonder what we actually got for our $400m.

More like 150 billion
 
Just think of all the money we spent rebuilding Japan and Germany after WWII. We also gave the USSR money to help them rebuild too. The US has been in the money giving away business for way too long. It`s time we looked hard at our infrastructure and said to hell with fixing other countries problems and fixed our own. I think Russia would probably go along with this too. They have been trying to keep up with our military might and also have neglected their people. Japan and Germany don`t have to spend big on their defense because the US bears the majority of the cost of their protection. I don`t think Russia is our enemy, our politicians are our worst enemy.
 
Which Trump is going to show up today? The one that likes Putin or the one that is anti-Russia. The one that thinks China is controlling their currency or the one that has a good relationship with the Chinese prime minister? The news says they are not even sure if Trump knew they were going to drop the MOABs on Syria. N. Korea just wants aid and attention, but if ignored could set off a nuke just for spite. Trump and Kim Jong-Un need to be put in a ring to battle this one out. I think both of them are nuts.

There`s your problem. You`re listening/reading news.

Trump is actually doing what he said he was going to do.
 
Giving other countries isn`t putting us in debt. The treasury will just print more. What is getting us in debt is BORROWING from other countries. We can`t print money to give to them.

What I`m saying is that if we "borrow" money from China we can`t print Chinese money to give back. If the US goes in debt to a US company they just print more to pay it off which is why the reason the dollar is crap and not really worth anything. After the gold standard was done away with it`s just a piece of paper now.

Catch 22. Seems so terrible to have gone away from the gold standard until you find out the reasons why.
 
Trump needs to keep his mouth shut and his ears open. He let the generals start fighting, now maybe he will butt out of the economy, healthcare, and anything of real importance. I like it when he stays on the golf course, he can`t hurt too many people there. The Presidency as a reality show kinda scares me.
