Steel and Aluminum
Donald Trump is an agitator. He has been stirring up all kinds of political, economic and military storms everywhere, and then his words and positions are ever changing from one day to another.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trump is not only against China in her so-called unfair trading, but now he is also against Canada, Mexico and the European Union (EU). So far it appears that he is good at breaking deals, but not making deals. I am waiting to see what he is going to do with the upcoming summit with Kim Jong-un of North Korea. I still wish him success in bringing peace to the Korean Peninsula.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Regarding Canada and U.S. relations, it just doesn’t make any sense for Trump to say that the U.S. is under threat and security risk of Canada. Why subject Canada to steel and aluminum tariffs? Please don’t give me a stupid answer of why not.

Miley Cyrus and Mexican Flag
Miley Cyrus was performing in Monterey, Mexico. She wore a big prosthetic butt while some male dancers hit it with the Mexican flag. She was investigated and fined by the Mexican authority for her disrespectful and degrading act.
My thoughts and comments:
When in Mexico or any country, you respect the laws of that country. Problems would arise if you insisted on using your own country's laws, culture and values to "over-rule" those of another country.
Miley Cyrus is a good singer. She didn't really need to show her butt, real or fake, to prove her talent. She went nude on a wrecking ball, twerked and behaved like a soft-porn star etc. etc. all due to business reasons. I believe it is simply the business reality that she embraced. In other words, the almighty dollar, fame and celebrity status are more attractive to her than just the artistic value of her singing and performing craft. She wanted to be a diva, not just a singer.
Last but not least, when you are in Mexico, and if you are not a Mexican, please don't wear a T-shirt with a Mexican flag on it. I have a friend who did that and was taken to a police station for questioning. Good Day !!!
