I love Donald Trump for several reason.
He focuses on priorities putting America, first.
He has no time for wars to sustain an already bruised ego.
He is keen on keeping America as world's economic power house. He is patriotic

However, I think he is locking the barn after the horse has bolted. BRISCS have come to stay

This is a viable alternative man

If Donald trump actually read a book, he’d learn that neither protectionism nor isolationism work in this 21st century, these countries can do the same tarrif on US as well

You don't know that U.S. arrogance and bullish behavior is the very reason BRICS was formed

He's going to destroy US economy and push allies away, he knows nothing
allies are not bind by political interests. They're bond by their shared interest and that's the greatest strength of the United States. As long as the West control their borders they'll always be world power.

What is America producing that cannot be gotten from other countries? Why is Trump making much noise? Saudi Arabia stopped trading their crude oil in dollars this year. Nigeria should do the same and Naira value will gradually pick up again.

US can't be sanctioned for its role in invading Iraq, considering the positive outcomes that ensued. The invasion led to Saddam Hussein being held accountable for his crimes. Additionally, the US intervention prevented the potential proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs), which Saddam Hussein had previously used against his own citizens. The US prevented his further atrocities, making it a justified action.

Saying Trump doesn't read books is a cheap shot. Lol But, let's focus on the the part we here for.

BRICS is never a viable alternative to the US-led global order as you guys call it, because it's just a loose association of countries with different economic systems, political structures, and interests.
They're not exactly a cohesive unit, if you know what I mean.
The US has been using tariffs and other trade restrictions to protect its interests for ages. It's not like Trump invented protectionism. Lol

Now, about those tariffs. Yeah, other countries can impose tariffs on the US, but it's not a straightforward game of tit-for-tat. The US has a massive economy, and its trade relationships are large. Imposing tariffs on the US would likely hurt other countries more than it would hurt the US. China for one doesn't want that.

Whatever Trump plans to do is his issue. One thing about politics is you can never fully predict the outcome, so keep spectating. Every country will want to place it's interest first, sincerely that's how you survive!
I agree.
Some weeks ago, china wanted to invest some billions in another BRIC nation but they refused 'respectfully'

I trust America more than China or Russia as the only superpower.
America , Japan, S Korea and the EU for example have a moral way of doing things, protect rights and freedoms of their people though some of their leaders are selfish.
China and Russia. Are not trustworthy at all, if they had the power America has they would bludgeon weaker nations
China is not charitable at all like the countries I mentioned
U said what I have always believed.


Even Americans themselves don't like their leaders meddling in other countries issues and they voice it out.

Dem no born russians or Chinese people to complain or protest against their government.


All countries can be selfish.
But u see America? They don't boss other countries around.


And u see China and Russia? Especially China? Fear them o.

Waiting patiently to read how Western puppets on nairaland will jump on Trump side. As much as I like Trump, you can't be threatening other countries not to trade in whatever currencies that best serve their own national interest. He once said it would be Luke loosing a world -war! Same thing we are all accusing Putin of not allowing Ukraine to chart its own course .

BRICS is a joke. Trump's a patriot(most of the time), through and through, and he's all about putting America first. You can't have your cake and eat it, according to him, - you gotta choose between the US dollar or watching your economy go down the pan.

It's their call. Trump's made it clear, he won't let anyone mess with the US dollar, and if you're not on board, you're on your own. You have a choice. Choose freedom🦅🦅🇺🇲!
You try but you FAIL.
Why you no kuku dey spend the dollar for here.
So much entitlement mentality for this people...

oldguyman:
Initial gra gra, Trump should calm down as no one is buying into his bullying tactics again.
The truth is, America has already monopolized the world economy when they were all sleeping on bike. You can't ignore their influence without facing significant consequences. This reality underscores the importance of understanding and navigating international economic relationships with care and awareness.

Re: Trump Threatens BRICS Countries Over Abandoning The Dollar by AllenSpencer:
I am just loving Trump!

All because I am so certain what he is starting will even hurt those who voted for him.

I can’t wait for him to increase tariffs, start an economic war with BRICS, dissolve the ministry of education, start mass deportation starting from farms to factories and overhaul the military.

Those things he has to implement first week in office.

Even Donald Trump knows that Vladimir Putin of Russia is not someone you play with kid glove.

That the Russian president said he's ready to talk to Donald Trump regarding Ukraine doesn't mean he's ready to back down if he's demand and not met

Charity, ist that what you are looking for? Instead of you looking at countries that will assist yours in building your own country, you are looking for charity. People like you are our problem. There is nothing wrong if every country wants to pursue its own destiny. There is no law that says you have to use the dollar. What is wrong with using another currency if that is what suits your country?

You are seriously contradicting yourself.

Putin has no demand over any sovereign country, he used all the power he has, yet could not over-run Ukraine.

Hello slow down stop defending what you knew nothing about. Tell Putin to go ad rest this is no longer Lennin era, Ok.

Stop pretending like you care about their economy. You will be happy to see it collapse as a muslim terrorist that you are. Why can't your so called Brazil russian Iran China allow others have their own currency too? Why come up with bricks currency? Just shut up cos all you know is about killing of non Muslims in the name of God.

Contradicting yourself. Brics is also a forced currency. Let every country that joined them own up to their currency na if they don't have hiding motives. Una go just dey talk anyhow like say Una understand weytin dey go on.
