I am afraid it's you who posts the rubbish. Nothing that any POTUS could have done would have made any impact so early. Economies just don't react that fast. It has been estimated that the tax cuts will increase the debt level by around 10 times as much as Obama's measures admittedly did. That was needed as a stimulus. Trump's/GOP's tax cuts assume that trickle down economics work, but they never have before. Trump's claims of jobs returning, new factories opening etc etc are just bs. As any businessman knows such things take years to plan and implement. You can criticise agreements if you wish but to break them arbitrarily, without negotiation, establishes a very poor reputation for honesty and integrity. The USA now appears to be a self indulgent bully who cannot be trusted. She has abdicated her role as the de facto leader of the western world and left us all much weaker as a consequence. Trying to destroy NATO adds insult to injury. And he is trying to destroy it with his falsehoods and misunderstandings of it's purpose. Who does this all suit and make look as though they are the architect? Putin's Russia of course. Any additional "sanctions" being applied are just window dressing. Trump has refused to implement many of them and when he has 2 hour long private meetings my traitor antenna is buzzing loudly. With so many other circumstantial events which also support the idea that Trump is controlled by the Kremlin I fully expect that the Mueller enquiry will end up revealing the biggest scandal in US political history. This will damage us all and whatever happens, Putin wins, at least in the short term. Just remember though that bullies never prosper for ever. Eventually they come up against a bigger bully, or people group together to resist them. These are dark days for politics with the very foundations of our western democratic systems under serious threat from the short sighted, feel good, answer that is popularism.

I'm a Londoner.....who lives in Wisbech.

A Londoner from a time when London...the capital of England was majority English.

You thought you were being insulted when Stirling called you deluded.
Now you have just called millions of Americans dumb.
You can't have it both ways.
Oh no hold on.
Of course you can especially with your political choice.

You have what is commonly known as Trump Derangement Syndrome.

PS Both Obama and Bush urged NATO countries to spend more. Everything else in your post is pure speculation.
