And Trump has really shown that US is nothing but overrated in terms of their health system,policing etc.

Overrated policing but still has troops in hundreds of thousands spread across the globe, protecting you and myself indirectly..

Overrated health system but has an NHS that could manage over 2m infected patients..

What does yours have?

Filing for bankruptcy is always because you failed in whatever you are doing. Have you ever heard of a business that is making money and have made good business decisions filling for bankruptcy?


Sorry to quote u sir, u r very wrong on this sir..

People can also file for bankruptcy to avoid some divorce or legal issue... Yes, u can protect ur wealth by declaring ursef bankrupt...


It happens even in India.... What u need is a good lawyer with correct financial institutions that will help u....

People file for bankruptcy a lot in US for many reasons oga. Some do it for wealth protection against fallouts from divorce. Others to protect themselves from fallouts from legal assaults.

China, Germany, France, Mexico, Canada and many other countries have sucked out America enough. America has long made herself a maga for these countries and all they get from those unfavourable deals is hatred, discontent and betrayal. Many of these countries must now take up their own destinies in their hands and not become a leech on tax paying Americans.

You all should be concerned that Arabs are buying too many businesses from European countries. Merkel is romancing and patronising China and Russia more than America despite leeching on America's wealth, recourses for far too long all in the name of Friends and Allies. True allies mutually benefits from each other.

Your hatred for America will not stop her rise. And to realise that many of you folks are desperately wishing to travel there is rather unfortunate. Go channel that hatred to Bihari and your Governor's who have looted you dry for far too long. Channel that anger on something productive. Let Merkel and EU provide their equal share of contribution for NATO. They could also instead sell off themselves to China or Russia or Saudi Arabia just to spite America. Bunch of forgetful ingrates.



just help me ask these misguided lots! The same usa they hate is d same country they want to keep throwing away money feeding and protecting them. They know nothing about history, USA has given alot of aids to Africa in the past and what did they do with it nothing!! Our leaders went there for more aids they rejected. China has ben recieving trade protection from USA and the same china went about bragging that they have become world power ans now that huawei Licence have been withdrawn they can't even make good phones anymore lmao,go to huawei reviews and laugh ur lungs out. If i was a soldier stationed away from my family for years this is what i will want so this move by trump is putting America first. Let all man protect himself and stop seeing USA as a fool.

All these misinformed and confused kids on NL, hun. Hatred for America? Desperately wishing to travel there?
Son, let me tell you something - The first time I traveled from Lagos to JFK on Nigerian Airways, the ticket cost was only N300. I'm more than sure that you were not even then. I have been traveling the world with a US passport before you were born.
Filing for bankruptcy is always because you failed in whatever you are doing. Have you ever heard of a business that is making money and have made good business decisions filling for bankruptcy? Pls give us just one example.
Talking about Arabs, how is Trumps best friend right now? Is it not MBS, the ruler of Saudi Arabia? The troops that he's removing from Germany might more than likely end up in Saudi Arabia. The more you look, the less you see.
Son, you sound like someone who just took Physics 101 and now thinks that they are qualified to speak as a Physicist. You are simply repeating the type of trash that you will hear on Fox entertainment channel.
Go back to learn world Geopolitics/affairs and come back 20 years from now to speak as a more informed person. Right now, you are just spitting out all that you have heard from watching too much Fox news.


From your Narrative you shout be smarter than this ... From time immemorial Trump has said Germany will have pay to assist in cost of keeping that large Army there and if Germany won't they will have to cut the size to what US can afford ... He is leaving behind 25 thousand men which is almost the size of the entire Nigerian army today and you are complaining ..Germany is a very rich country that doesn't want to pay for security like the Saudis , the Ssaudis are paying heavy to keep US troops as guards

American Army is one of the, if not the most, sure fire means, US government provides employments for "his" citizens. Imagine 34k soldiers in one foreign soil alone? those soldiers will be using Germany's resources, and probably getting paid too (even though, it won't be directly).

Oga calm down with your naveity u conservatives like Putin the dictator but hate communist China u can keep decieving urself. if u call Putin a great leader what will u call president xi of China that leading the world in most technological advancement. Russia help trump win 2016 election all US security forces have confirmed it even US republican controlled Senate.

Xi is doing great for his people. It's up to the world to catch up or cut them off as they see best for their people.

Xi's only problem is that their trade deals are not fair and balance for other nations. But then, it's up to other nations to react how they see best.

Putin on the other hand, what would you say are some of his worst sins? Try and see how you are completely unable to answer the question then you'd understand where the problem lies

On the second, why is Germany not happy that he is moving troops since he told them the cost of maintenance has to be borne by both countries..

What employment has yours provided even as mercenary soldiers to foreign nations in such numbers?..

The number of white US citizens killed by police in US is higher than that of black US citizens in actual fact.

Police are brutal everywhere. You can check the Nigerian scenario with SARS and other police units against Nigerian citizens.

CNN and other Democrat supporting TV stations will have you believe police only kills or beats blacks. Not true.

Western media has made everything non_western evil.
We
need to sit down and look at it logically.
Nigeria has been struggling to fight BH for decade, US
has
never shown any genuine support, infact, at a time they're
were technically supporting BH by blocking every
opportunity
to access weapons. Whereas, the same US has been
building sophisticated millitary bases all over Africa with
several billions of dollars even all over islands in Africa.
In a
continent struggling to provide as basic thing as clean
water,
road, edu, etc. In term of infrastructural development, US
hasnt built anything tangible anywhere in Africa despite
her
big economy and influence.
On the other hand, China is building projects across
Africa
from electricity to train to Airport, roads, scholarships to
Africans, etc even with their own money. Let's say we
can't
pay and they take over them, who would still be using
those
infrastructure, Chinese? At least they brought them here,
so
if we can't pay back and they take over them these things
would still be in use by Africans and improve quality of
life,
just like every private business.
US/Trump that everyone is supporting call Africans all
kinds
to unprintable names, visa ban, reporting weak sides of
African nations and continuously ridiculing everything we
do.
The list is long. China hasnt done any of these yet,
western
media still find their ways into the hearts of Africans to
hate
Chinese. Sadly, enough some fake pastors joined this
brainwashed citizens.
Look at China, how many times have they tumbled
African
govt? How many nations have China invaded in Africa?
How
many times has Chinese embassy criticize our local
affairs?
Etc
New York started have underground train in 1809, that's
200yrs, they never extended such to Africa. China started
booming just 20yrs ago and they've extended everything
technology they have to us, that have improved our lives;
From phones, train, Good Airport, Naval ship, Telecom,
Roads, scholarships, etc
Africans must sitdown and think. China is not your
enemy.


Anyone who think china is our enemy is an ignorance....
If China want to kill us in Nigeria we would have been dead long time ago.pls chek ur environment and
Take away all China products , stationary, fans, all electronics, cosmetics, bridges, roads, auto parts, generators, clothes railway building materials etc and especially the phones we dey take abuse ourselves on nairaland etc from Nigeria.
Then u will see if not for China Nigeria go still be like something else ni

I always support bringing American troops home from every corner of the Earth. I don't support the idea of "world Police" where Americans are dying for others. I have family members in the US Military that I will rather they are at home than in some foreign land. But you also have to realize that by doing all these, the US is able to control others countries when their favors are needed especially when it favors the US interest. So it's not as free as you think. The US can easily convince Germany and others to support its idea at the UN and other world bodies, the US almost force these countries to buy US MADE military hardware which brings in billions of dollars back to the US. So it's not free as you guys think it is.
Now, if Trump was doing this when relations with Germany is good, I will believe his intention, but we all know he's doing it simply because the German chancellor is not licking his ass as he wants her to. The man is a narcissistic fool that acts like a toddler when he doesn't have his way.
He’s also playing into Putin’s hand, this is what Putin wants, does this favor the American interest right now? NO. Putin wants all American military out of Europe so that he can assert his influence.

If Trump had just put the money he inherited in an index fund and go to sleep, he would have been 5 times richer. He is a moronic business man. He has already led 6 companies to bankruptcy.

Early Sunday morning, I refuse to waste my time responding to kids that don't know JACK. But pls tell us where is Trump from this list of the top 20 Real Estate developers in NY. Since you claimed he's the biggest in the heart of NY. Some of you kids are just too gullible and believe any trash without doing any research on you own. I don't just believe anything I see or read, I try to apply logical reasoning and a bit of research. Trump is not even barely worth a Billion, how in hell is he the biggest in NY. Bloomberg is worth about 60 BILLION DOLLARS. Trump is struggling to stay in the BIllionares club. That's one of the reasons why he's so desperate to hide his tax records. The whole world will see him for the FRAUD that he is.
BTW he inherited a lot from his father FRED TRUMP that you claimed you don't know his name. Without him, TRUMP will be just another lying ass SOB blow joe on the street of NY.

1 NYC (government) 362.1M 4,941
2 Vornado Realty Trust 29.7M 77
3 SL Green Realty 28.7M 73
4 Tishman Speyer 20.5M 36

Yes, Democrats are very uneducated and that's why they will lose again with a very strategic force like Trump.

I always laugh at Democrat narratives, so archaic.
Even amongst core Democrat voters, they will lose ground badly in November 2020. Trump could win in all 50 US states.
With a docile, senile, old white man like Biden who has possibly been the biggest oppressor of blacks with his Crime bill (story for another day), Democrats stand no risk of nearing the White House. Some Democrats are even calling for changing their presidential candidate.

If Hillary Rodham could lose against a non-politician outside like Trump, who is Biden?
