If Soros told me that the sun sets in the west I’d be looking east.

Oh I agree, that is why it is remarkable, how completely I agree with this article.

Profoundly.

Consider that Soros manipulates a lot of small countries by leveraging their weak economies. He also attempts to manipulate larger countries and conglomerations (like the EU) by financing political movements within those countries. Ask yourself how well either of those techniques might work against Communist China. Answer: not at all.

Soros is taking a (Brexit-ing) swipe at Boris Johnson, who has a problem of filling an economic hole in Britain’s economic boat. It’s understandable that Johnson would be cozying up to both the US & China as they lead trade blocks powerful enough to help offset the loss of the local trading block (EU).

Incidentally, Johnson has to be worried about the kind of currency-manipulation that Soros specializes in.

I imagine BoJo remembers what soros did to the pound in the early 90s and hope he’s looking for payback

Britain, in my view, is making a huge mistake throwing in with China.

Very bad move, Britain.

In my opinion.

BTW, I feel the same way about America, for the last 30 years.

FINALLY, we seem to be improving now.

Maybe.

Not defending Johnson here, but there are only a couple of options open to him. He appears to be taking both. The mathematics of Brexit is dictating all this. Solve one problem, create another. Foreign policy has always been thus.
