Rubio goes to Panama.

Rubio tells Panama to end China's influence of canal or face US action

Mulino, after the talks with the top U.S. diplomat in Panama City, signaled he would review agreements involving China and Chinese businesses, and announced further cooperation with the U.S. on migration, but reiterated that his country's sovereignty over the world's second busiest waterway is not up for discussion.

 

And we made them an offer they cannot refuse.

 

You just reminded me why nobody missed you.

 

Oh sweet! So we get to pay for it now instead of have the Panamanians do it? So much winning!

 

It was always ours the minute we wanted it, but in the meantime was being paid for by someone else. Now we get to pickup that dime. Awesome! Nothing like paying for something you get for free to show people how "smart" you are.

 

Cancellation of Belt and Road much a-do about nothing. China-funded rail and port projects were cancelled in 2019 and a bridge will continue as it’s already well underway.

 

Ah, yes, "Disagree Bacon" without a single fact to back up said "disagreement". Guess it "disagreed" with "The Narrative".

 

I know. You guys cry every time we get off "The Narrative."

I get it. Thinkin' hurt!

 

I liked the other one better.

 

Bigger. More action. Come on man.

 

Still doesn't refute the point that we pickup the cost if we take it over or that we're not going to incur more costs as a result of this. . . when we got it all for free before. Not sure what's so difficult to understand here. I get it. You voted for him and you don't want to believe he's the idiot he is. But he IS. And no amount of cognitive dissonance is going to change that.

 

You don't say!

Yes. PURELY symbolic.

SOP for MAGA.

 

And, frankly, how much can they have? They are 5000 miles away with a Green Water navy.

 

So, the leftist playbook is now going to "desperate panic mode downplaying any and all accomplishments of the Trump Administration."
