'Sitting Bull in a china shop': G-7 photo is latest attempt to embarrass Trump, latest failure

By Charles Hurt - The Washington Times - Sunday, June 10, 2018

ANALYSIS/OPINION:

Call it “Sitting Bull in a china shop.”

A stunning picture. Live. Real. Raw. Tense. Wit’s end fury.

At the focal point in the picture: Total calm.

Arms crossed, suit-coat slightly rumpled. Seated. Eyes open, passive, unseeing. Mouth set contentedly.

President Trump, leader of the free world, G-1, sits in a room surrounded by utterly powerless and exhausted G-6, like weary parents whose child has gone through all 17 stages of an airport meltdown tantrum and has — finally — decided to just sit on the floor.

Arms crossed. Unmovable.

Hurt is right about the failure of past policy. Indeed, let's see what Trump can get done, if anything.

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
Fact is we get raped on trade, especially on manufactured goods. The only reasons our deficit isn't worse is due to 1) Oil and ag exports, and 2) foreign investment into our markets.

The rest of the world knows this, and have used us as they're cash cow for decades. This is why they are screaming so loudly.

Between that and our regulations, we need to shore up our competitiveness before we start traveling the road to Zimbabwe.
The Republic is lost.
