See the earlier responses for a more nuanced explanation. Assuming you can understand them....

And if Obama did it you would call it diplomacy. Partisan hackery is not a good trait.

No one knows how much Trump is worth because he won't divulge it. For all we know he may not own any of those assets and simply receives royalties for the use of his name.

Also, he received a loan from Daddy to the tune of $14M in the 70s. If he had put that money in an S&P 500 index fund back then, it'd be worth somewhere around $10 Billion now. He couldn't out perform the stock market with his "multi billion dollar international empire," so yeah, I'd make any wager on that idgit not knowing something important about how to do his job.

That's the difference: OBAMA WOULDN'T HAVE DONE SOMETHING THIS STUPID.

We need those trade routes to be stable. All of those 'Murikan trucks Trump fans love so much rely on parts made in Asia and shipped here by sea.

Jeezus, our educational system is shot to hell. I guess we brought this on ourselves.

In case you didn't notice none of the countries over there seem to have our back except Japan. Even the Philippines government is cozying up to China.
If they want to let China rule them, then to hell with them. Let China conquer them and rape, pillage, and plunder to their hearts content which is what they will do. The Chinese military has no ethics or code of honor.

He cedes the South China Sea, China gets its businessmen cronies to ease up Trump's mountain of debt that he's hiding from us. It's all part of a deal.

It is not ours to cede. It is international waters that China wants to claim as its own, but the waters are governed by the countries in Asia. If they want help policing it, they should be a little nicer to us and stop stabbing us in the back.

you do realize the spirit of TPP is still going on, except now cross out US and write in China....so basically by being shortsighted and giving in to those who don't know any better we have yet again under Trump allowed China to gain influence on the world stage at our expense....but def focus on the wall and keg stands while taking away insurance from 20+ million, that's the important stuff...

good thing Trump's supporters favor weakening public schools more in exchange for a 5K voucher to a 10K school...that should have no downstream effects going forward.....shouldn't sides the gap at all between states that value and fund education and those that don't....

It is an alliance that has kept everyone in check and hurt nobody. For no real reason dummy donnie is shifting the balance of power. Maybe China has offer Donald his own island, i really dont know.

What we do know is who the winner is... CHina because it looks like they just stole the - - - - - - - line...
Listen birther. I've listened to rw idiots for the last 8 years here complaining about whatever Obama did. If he liked vanilla he should have liked chocolate...if he was tough...he was a warmonger...if he was diplomatic he was giving it all away.

You're just like the guys that you thought were idiot sheep following their party. Congrats.
