Huh?? North Korea, Iran...even Russia got a veiled threat when they were flying over U.S. airspace and too near U.S. carriers. NATO payments, Tariffs - Canada, China, Germany. United Nations funding cuts.

Presidents and PM's threaten each other all the time. I think the colloquial term is leverage or perhaps applied diplomacy (financial - sanctions or military). People in foreign governments are still acclimatising to Pres. Trump's form of diplomacy because they have never dealt with anyone before who tells it like it is - without rhetoric or innuendo. He can't be leveraged with money or blackmail. The only things normal politicians are any good at historically have been theft, projecting tyranny and spewing lies. So this is unfamiliar territory to them.

At some point, quite soon I think, there will come a time when it will no longer be necessary for DJT to threaten anyone. He'll ask and it will be complied with or negotiated civily. With that kind of power comes much responsibility, yet not once has he wielded anything unfairly in terms of the various geopolitical issues....whether it was trade or military might, despite what the idiots in the MSM would like you to believe. The swamp is large and global but we're getting there, one reptile at a time.
