Pound foolishness … threaten to invade an ally to shake a few duckets from their pockets and give Trump a chance to preen about what a successful bully he is.
This was really about the growing influence of China in Central America. The pocket change is just beer money. Biden asleep in rehobeth beach the last 4 years.

Threatening and alienating the Panamanian government is an interesting strategy in that case.
 




“… Marocco’s return to USAid has not been formally announced and the department website still lists a previous director for the office of foreign assistance. Many staff only learned that Marocco had been appointed from emails and cables drafted by him ordering them to stop work.

… A former marine and conservative activist from Dallas, Marocco served short stints of just a year each at the state department, commerce department, defense department and USAid during the first Trump presidency. In 2020, a 13-page complaint by USAid staffers was placed in its dissent channel – a framework for foreign service staff to express constructive criticism – accusing Marocco of undermining and micromanaging employees in a way that “rapidly degraded” a small department focused on political transitions. Critics say he is now applying the same playbook of laborious reviews and vague directives to all of USAid.


Marocco was also allegedly photographed and filmed inside the Capitol building during the January 6 riots, according to volunteer activists who have posted a widely cited investigation. Marocco has not been charged with a crime. Asked about the allegation by D Magazine, Marocco did not address whether he had been at the Capitol, but described it as “petty smear tactics and desperate personal attacks”.

He joined Trump’s transition team in December as an adviser on national security personnel matters.

“Democrats and their allies in the media who think they are going to obstruct our ability to deliver on this mandate by going back to the same January 6 playbook of smears and faux outrage that was soundly rejected by the American people will be disappointed,” Trump’s press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, told Politico at the time. …”

How in the world do you know this is what “this was really about?” Because Trump said so?
Trump first said his tariffs were about “trade deficits,” then it was about raising money to pay down debt and fund the government, then it was to stop fentanyl.
And if that were truly the goal, then his way of accomplishing that is a really bad way of going about it.
Like we saw with his first round of tariffs (and are seeing with this one): the effect of the tariffs only made trade for American businesses harder, and raised China’s influence.
 
I'd be curious to see how many of those fiscally positive trying to come here are turned down and for what reasons.

The Panama thing? Ugh..no. That was the spin given by Trump. Chinese have owned those ports for more than 25 years. They have nothing to do with the operation of the Canal. By the way, Chinese companies operate more than 120 ports around the world.
 


“I’ve left instructions. If they do it, they will be obliterated, there won’t be anything left and they shouldn’t be able to do it. And Biden should have said that but he never did. I don’t know why. Lack of intelligence perhaps …”

Ahem. FLASHBACK

Um, Trump, your instructions would be meaningless if you were dead. Talk about lack of intelligence. I am so tired of this mook.
