    I’m more interested in seeing what happens with the second part of his threat, that he’ll “use those bases whether spain likes it or not”.

    I believe that’s called an incursion on foreign soil.

      It’s called: instead of uniting together to eliminate Iran we should gather together and eliminate the US government with its oligarchs. This will immediately solve a lot of problems in this world.

    Trump should be pleased with Spain, they even named a military base after him:

    “Trump’s comments came after the US relocated 15 aircraft, including refuelling tankers, from the Rota and Moron military bases in southern Spain after the country’s Socialist leadership said it would not allow them to be used to attack Iran.”

    As Trump said about Starmer:

    I guess our relationship isn’t what it used to be.

    You are goddam right it isn’t you malignant sociopath. And it’s all 100% your fault, and the Americans that voted for you twice!

    I hope Carney builds up Canada’s Spain trade relationship more. It honestly seems like a pretty cool country. Middle power countries should just use Trumps various outbursts to excise the states if need be, and to support each other. Someone else noted that the US primary exports are fossil fuels and machinery – Canada’s already exporting a bunch of machinery that way, and clearly has some fossil fuels available.

      And unless he’s willing to cut all trade with the EU, he can’t. The EU’s unified trade policy says that you can only trade with one member on the same terms that you trade with all other members.

      This is important. He says a lot of shit, and it just goes no where. His base though… They don’t read. They repeat and echo the headlines.
