Victor Cha prediction on Donald Trump effect in Asia.

It turns out Trump is the biggest Chinabot who will work for China and North Korea. Any remaining trust that the world has of the US, will be down the drain. It will be highly entertaining and interesting to watch these disruptions. Also, it’s looking more and more like Yoon’s sacrificing the Korean economy to boost the Made-in-America IRA policy will doom his presidency by making him look like an idiot.
Korea Man, that article is not ignorant.
It’s malevolent… intentionally misrepresenting the reality everyone paying attention lived just a few years ago.
But those paying attention are not the target audience.
This article was written for the underinformed, misinformed, willfully ignorant, and stupid.
I don’t know how you fit in, but I know you unironically linked it.
To give you a hint:
Yeah!: “Joe Biden’s first term, during which Washington focused on deepening alliance partnerships and building coalitions to compete with China economically ”
Whaaa!: “America is moving Korean factories to America!”
1984: “Doublethink is a process of indoctrination in which subjects are expected to simultaneously accept two conflicting beliefs as truth, often at odds with their own memory or sense of reality.”
When I first read 1984, it didn’t mean much. Doublethink is insanity and this is fiction. Now, I can’t unsee it.
Those who openly engage in it are insane or stupid AF.
Those who try to push it off on me are my existential enemy and will be treated as such.
Butthurt over rhetoric? More loyal to North Korea than the USA?
OK, we will see what happens, Trumpbots. I have a feeling that we will visit Victor Cha’s analysis by next year and see how accurate it is.
It’s bad news for the Trumpbots, as it looks like South Korea’s exports to China has climbed exponentially, and now SK exports more to China, than the US and Japan exports to China.

This will be very important for Korea, once Trump comes to power and he starts slapping huge tariffs on South Korean exports to the US. When he does this, a new massive East Asian bloc of Korea-China-Japan will form. SEA will also follow and they will join also, once the massively hit US tariffs will give them no choice.
Korea Man, it doesn’t bother you that none of the past prediction of Trump’s destruction of all that is Well and Good didn’t even come close to happening?¹
You really believe But Next Time?
This is why I know the vaxtards are all going to do it all over again… monkeypox, birdflu, anyl shankers… whatever. People are too stupid to recognize patterns.
¹In fact, Trump did nothing bad so it all had to be made up… from calling Nazis good people to injecting bleach to etc.
Chickenhead, in Trump’s first term he was surrounded by top people who undermined Trump’s orders. The second Trump term will have no such people. This time it will be completely different once Trump is surrounded by his loyalists who will carry out his orders without question. That is the crux of Cha’s analysis.
“Chickenhead, in Trump’s first term he was surrounded by top people who undermined Trump’s orders. The second Trump term will have no such people. This time it will be completely different once Trump is surrounded by his loyalists who will carry out his orders without question.”
I was already going to vote for him. You don’t have to further sell me on it.
But. No.
This is the same fearful nonsense we heard before his first term… he will be surrounded by the Christian Right who will put the ghays into camps while he grabs the interns by the pússy.
This is more stupidity.
No matter who he surrounds himself by, the Deep State will sabotage them all while the Administrative State slowwalks any real solutions and the media chirps contrived scandals and ANTIFA and BLM are organized to take to the streets while law enforcement is told to atand down.
Further the “Biden” administration will (further) burn America down so all failure can be blamed on Trump and MAGA (by Democrats and RINOs).
On the big issues, America Inc. is going to do what America Inc. planned to do a decade ago. It is only how the result is spun… Biden protects Ukranian Freedom & Democracy while Trump brings us ever closer to WW3.
It’s no surprise that the likes of CH and the former B52 gunner will vote for the person who will withdraw USFK from Korea.
This means their claim that they care about Korea are lies since we all know that withdrawing USFK in Korea is the second part of their plan to weaken Korea on behalf of their Russian masters who are allied with China.
The ones who truly care about Korea are Korean patriots such as KM and me who advocate for a strong Korean self-defense based on a nuclear deterrent.
That is in addition to not kowtowing to the major powers and the ridding Korea of the conservative right-wing lackeys and their foreign supporters who are more concerned about profiteering at the expense of the Korean people .
Oh don’t get me wrong. I don’t like the man, but I want him to win because his win will be a blessing in disguise. So please vote for him.
It’s not being fearful, but it’s what’s expected. And it’s what the leaders, not just in Korea, but worldwide, need to prepare for.
