Trump: Overseeing the Downfall of the US Empire

[ustaad]

I believe China will catch up economically with USA in my life time.

Bro China is already ahead of USA economically.

Yes China is ahead of USA, in NOMINAL PPP or Power Purchasing Parity.

But in NOMINAL GDP, China is still behind USA.

That doesn't matter as its based on highly inflated numbers. Real economy is measured on a country's development and industrial/agricultural capacity.

Correct, Sir. China is not too much behind USA in NOMINAL GDP anyways. China will catch up within my life time, as I am 34 currently.

The lengths of which some of you go is amazing.

I have always been a proponent of having multiple centers of power rather than just one. As we've seen, the senseless destruction wrought by one who's unchecked.

Not down for bipolar I take it?

the end of usa as superpower, it doesnt mean the end of usa as country.

they chose a cuban who speaks Spanish as secretary of state, Marco Rubio, they are retreating to America continent.

they do endless wars in eurasia (iran, ukraine) and quick wars in America continent (venezuela).

the end of usa as superpower/empire, it means the end of usa vassals as countries, starting by the richest in europe and middle east.

Marco Rubio is an American citizen born in Miami who just happens to be of Cuban descent.

Spain was once a global superpower. Should the US aspire to be like Spain?

Yeah, but he has Spanish as mother tongue, so he doesnt need translators, a big advantage for a foreign minister (aka secretary of state in USA).

Even when Marco Rubio tweets he sometimes has typos due to his smartphone keyboard is configured in Spanish (putting punctuation marks in letters, which doesnt exist in English but it exists in Spanish language).

If you pay attention you will see Marco Rubio is always sent to talk to Latin America countries, meanwhile that job for Russia is almost aways done by Kushner and Witkoff.

So he was chosen likely because USA in this administration is centered in recover Latin America for USA. That means less interest in far zones like Middle East and Europe.

I think USA has already started the transition from world superpower to regional power, like USSR did in 1991.

That's because Chinese don't have dollar printing machines.

USA's hyped up GDP is thanks to printing machines producing brand-new greenbacks out of thin air without any actual gold backing it.

Piles of piles of debt on debt. Economically, USA is a parasite that lives through sucking blood of other countries. Chinese labor force and global oil supply chain.

Thanks to Iranian imposed blockade the most vital part of their money laundering process is broken.

If BRICS currency becomes real, USA's biggest nightmare will rake shape and becomes real too.
