He truly is the Master Troll. He really should start a troll training farm. He’d make money hand over fist.
He’s bullshitting about all of them — except the Panama Canal. I believe him on that one. And he won’t take it over. He will just negotiate a better deal, than the one we have. Interesting, how he mentioned that word ‘negotiate’ A LOT.
In negotiations, always start high or low at the beginning (depending on whether buying or selling something). It’s called posturing. It enables you to see how far your opposition will go. Many times, I’m pleasantly surprised that the people were willing to agree to such a low price, on my low-ball offer. It’s all about realizing who has the ‘hammer’ which is the person with the power. Different circumstances predicate this. At the moment, Trump has the Hammer. Using military force on a NATO country, could potentially change that. That’s why I know he’s trolling. He is a raging narcissist, but not an idiot.
