The truth is that if our own country was good and everything was working, nobody would care about what an American president had said or has to say.......

Make African presidents and leaders try fix up our continent so that we won't have to bother about whatever impact Trump's laws may have on the rest of the world 🖕
Africa needs to unite!
That’s the only way we can become a force… individual countries standing up against the forces holding Africa won’t do much… they will just continue to use us to fight each other for selfish gains

Trump says the US is no longer father Christmas.

Tell your fvcking leaders to fix up their country so that we won't have to be fidgeting whenever an American president spills fire.......

At least, America doesn't generate the oxygen the rest of the world inhales...

lol hear how naively you speak. African presidents should do what? The leaders of these first world countries installed your leaders to do their bidding. A drug trafficker that was chased out of US is our president. He won the elections when biometric devices mysteriously failed to work. Result sheets were tampered with and brazenly posted on the IREV portal saying the APC won. EU and US observers saw it but did they complain? No. They congratulated us themselves grin Their puppet won! Oga, we are bleeped!

The US will be totally destroyed by the elected criminal president in the next four years. Trump is using the tactics to free off tensions from Putin by putting the US on a collision path with EU.

He is a criminal coward and a wannabe dictator.

That means you don't even understand the consequences of the tariff.
In fact, it is the "working" countries that have much to fear most from tarriff than others.

What are you actually saying?
Why do the millions of you brainwashed reason alike.
Y'all want puppets to fix a continent that was partitioned along greedy interest, the partitioned as history states, scrambled for it. They care not whose ancestral land their artificial lines splits arbitrarily over others. Went further to label them with pseduo identities that identifies no ethnic nations, like they have in Europe.

Make una dey try dey think for once na.

Why is America powerful that whatever their government do literally affects the rest of the world?

Listen up! Let me tell you why. America uses diversity law to attract at least a thousand population of every country of the world and incorporates their languages in some of their institutions in order to study their cultures. Those countries' citizens enjoy liberality and freedom and feels at home in America, and start investing and improving America's economy by their imports and export activities to and from their home countries. So, whenever American politicians hike tariffs it touches the country in questions or all other ones, and their allies will obey and implement the rules, or otherwise suffer too.
Now, you know.

Therefore, to become a global powerful country, you need to start attracting other countries' citizens to your country, maybe through school scholarships, tourism, etc. and make it easier for them to settle and do business. So, when you shout, "tariffs" their government will shake because it would touch them, then, they will come to the negotiation table with you, and you will use that means to be controlling them to do your bidding.

A lot of countries' government don't know this.

USA is bigger than all these international bodies. If Trump vexes,he Wil stop funding for the world trade organization,like he did for WHO.

Trump govt is resetting the world's order. Even his allies in Europe are silent, observing him. They know he can withdraw funding for NATO.
Trump is not ur regular president. Go ask Columbia president.
Lol. And what is their loss if he withdraw USA funding of NATO? No be USA the real beneficiary of NATO? No be USA dey use NATO to bully other countries one at a time by leading NATO to engage unwillingly in bombing other countries by her use of threat to withdraw the funding?

Have you seen the intelligent manner this woman was playing with numbers from her head without any external aid? Have you seen a high end engagement of diplomacy in her answers to Agreed one of the top gun reporter with CNN sorry they guy dey give body language of due respect not because of her gray hair but the depth of her intelligence.

Can the current minister of finance talk like that without him saying the way out is to create an anti graft committee with military powers to arrest all China business men just like they did with Binance executive.At the end more efforts no results.

PDP produced ministers who had huge cerebral and technical knowledge.After their tenure they could secure international Jobs.

Those APC mentally lazy propagandists ministers who have skillfully mastered the art of lies and campaign of calumny can't secure anything.Where is Lai Mohammed? Where is Fashola? Where is Rotimi Ameachi? Except for Osibanjo who still gets election monitoring engagement across African nations.

The biggest mistake Nigerians did was their decision to elect someone from APC to aAso rock in 2015.

nothing like world power for nothin...all countries agreed to trade in dollar so that gave usa power...let brics come online and let me see the sanctions working
richmond500:
Every country, directly or indirectly depends on America.
Their economy is enough to cause global depression, they can mount sanction on any country whether china, Germany or any other country.
Most world humanitarian organizations will shut down once America stop funding

The are world power for a reason

Who is Columbian President?
If Trump thinks he is a super power then let him go ahead and invade Greenland and also Gulf of Mexico....
Let's see what kind of guts he's got and the kind of mouth he would tell President Putin to stop the war with Ukraine!!!!!
He thinks it's all about tariffs, let him go ahead with his tariffs and American home grown businesses.
We thank God for China.

I said humble "Trump" not US, over 60% percent of US consumer goods comes from China, and US only balance of trade is oil and Equipments.

China na easily replace the Oil and Gas dependence on US with cheap Russian Oil and Gas, but can Us replace there's at thesame speed.

Only to transfer their Chip dependence on Taiwan is taking them 5 years so far yet NVIDIA, Quadcomm, Amazon and Apple still depends on Taiwan for chips. This means US can't lead any act of aggression against China and this will force China to retaliate threatening to take over Taiwan which will affect US tech market.

For starter you can see wat China did with TikTok and what they are doing with Deepseek
