This is why they’re all striking...they’re not getting paid.

I had a case of pinched shipping once.

Pretty painful...

It seems he is sending a message directly to global business leaders. Political leaders may huff and puff, but cannot force big businesses to ignore U.S. sanction. No government guarantees can insulate them from U.S. retaliation.

However he’s doing it it’s working.

He cut the media out of his loop early on....imagine how they’d be all over him on these foreign policies etc he’s carrying out...instead they’re chasing after Roseanne and Daniels BECAUSE he won’t give them the scoops they were once fed daily by Obama. They spent 8 years being spoon fed exactly what they wanted to hear so much they haven’t a clue how to work a story or find one anymore!

LOL...isn’t that the truth!

I’ve never seen in my life a media so self-absorbed that the stories they report are about them. Trump is a master a handling them....and they know it.

Chinese “companies” will fill the gap.

But... there will be a glut on the market of shipping and they’ll do it at a loss.

And would that be the Cho family shipping company in China...owners of a fleet of freighters....and in-laws to Senator Mitch McConnell.

I am.

I often wonder how I would have been able to survive a President Hillary.
