It’s funny to think about how when any of these GOP people talk about China, they always emphasize “the Chinese COMMUNIST Party” to dog whistle that they are “bad,” but now we are happy to trade with another communist country?

"we will give you paying us taxes and in exchange we can ravage your economy"

this is a caricature of a caricature of itself. its kind of funny that the literal president of the united states is saying shit like this. this just cannot be true.

SUV=SubUrban Vehicle

That's what I thought the acronym stood for when I was younger, because I would usually see them in suburbs. Now that I'm older, I refuse to call them sport utility vehicles because suburban vehicle is a much better description of their intended use-case.

I hate this. I hated that the rise in private car ownership was messing up the flow of Vietnam scooter traffic. Now it'll just be worse. I hope Vinfast is able to succeed, and VN residents buy electric scooters and cars made by their own citizens.

At least VN just got its first subway.

It is my great honour to announce that I have made a trade deal with the round device on the wall. I bet the batteries, for free and it will correctly tell the time twice a day.

In other words Vietnamese will not pay extra for US cars but US citizens will pay extra for EVERYTHING that comes from Vietnam. LOL

I thought communists were bad. Or is that what liberals think? Are Republicans okay with communists now? What's even happening? 😂😂😂
