Sorry David T. Hawkins: But I share TallyPatriot’s vision of Global Peace. The upside of China owning property in the U.S, next to Military installations and neighborhoods with C&Rs etc, is obvious;
Fewer unleashed pets, and cruises for the homeless.
@ TallyPatriot = Just so you know, China has been buying up THOUSANDS of ACRES of Land in the US and most of it beside Military Bases so they can Spy on us so YEAH, Trump needs to Seize all that Land and hit China where it counts again. PLUS, if you can remember back when Trump was President last time, he put a hurting on China with his Tariffs so bad, they they began working with us.
@David That is the dumbest thing I have read in awhile. Exporting our natural resources is not the same thing. Stop the whining. No matter who you try to blame, You will still be a loser
That would be great. Get DuhSantis out of Florida
