my response to you has just inspired an article

Yeah, but we aren’t as worried as I thought we would be. We’ve gotten into a lot of trade deals with other countries, and have been replacing many American imports with others… for example, (this is coming from the ‘me’ who is a frequent shopper) there used to be a huge quantity of cooking oil from America on the shelves. Today, the majority of imports are from Trinidad. The American oil sells poorly. As I said before, you won’t find an American car on our roads. What doesn’t come from Japan comes from Germany what doesn’t come from Germany comes from Korea, and we got these big clumsy buses from India. Our trade with America has dropped about 3 Billion dollars since 2008. What some people are saying is that they hope Trump chases all of our nurses back home, (we have a shortage) and in a selfish way, I guess, I’d love if he turned his ‘America First’ or “Jobs for Americans’ on those, like our nurses, who have been abducted. America comes here and finds the best and brightest and abducts them. They go to the U.S., live like Millionaires and of course, benefit America. If he’d just ship them back home, I think we’d be most grateful. |

I don’t think you can… unless there’s a change in the basics |

If you were with me in Jamaica right now, you’d hear how people are laughing at him and America. You’d know that America is NOT the world, that people have other opinions and as Jamaica is not Politically Correct, we express them.

It is not going to be lovely in the US. Perhaps many people who are trying to ‘smuggle’ themselves into the United States will realise it isn’t worth it. |

Truth? The man is a bald faced liar. He has lied throughout his life. From day one he has lied. He has been caught in lies. He thinks if he says something often enough and loud enough it becomes true. That doesn’t work. |

I have the impression, (perhaps more than an impression) that he is going to make America a laughing stock. That being so unpredicable and dishonest, many countries are going to work around America. For example, right now, most of the motorcycles coming into Ja are from China. There are some from Japan. None from America. Cars are the German luxury types or Japanese. Not American. Televisions are coming from China. At the supermarket there was some blueberries from America, and some tofu, but I bought local. To get American made clothing there is one shop downtown. Everywhere else is someplace else. The Caribbean, Africa, is not important to America. But they are important markets to China because of the sheer quantity. I’m sure some other country will realise what China is doing and compete. So that for the 3rd and 4th World American products would be unknown.

To me, he is extremely childish with a limited vocabulary and brain capacity and dishonest. Very dishonest. |

Oh yes. And it will encourage you to think of things you haven’t thought of… looking for a topic you never wrote about before… |
|
I’m glad you tried it. It’s fast and easy… and I have been paid once… |

Sometimes I can’t upload an image. I try to use an older one already here. It is not a complete lie. In the last few items I wrote I could not upload. |
|
that is really unexpected. |
|
what happened? What did I miss? |

I’m here… I try to submit $1 worth of blogs each day. We had terrible rain for months but it ended in October… |

sure… I understand |
