Trump says China respects him because Xi knows he is 'crazy'

[Gunny]

Trump needs to rethink his whole line here and get his pompous ego in check. It's clouding his judgement. Pooh respects "the plan". When China is ready, it isn't going to matter who is President of the US.

I hate this kind of talk. At the same time, I think it works much more with EU, than China. I also think Russia/Putin is doing all he can to tie the axis to him, such as NK troops and Iran & China materials.

Putin is a fool. He stands to lose more than any gain he might get in Ukraine. He's basically selling out the Far East of Russia for ground he has turned in gravel in Donbas. While it is by his own hand he has had to choose his allies, it's not like he has anywhere else to turn.

In return, the little troll in N Korea is getting all the faux attention he could ever have wished for.

I suspect Pooh is licking his chops and biding his time for when he can "clean up" Far East Asia. Putin isn't going to have anything left to stop him.
