I don't think this will work, countries are at liberty to decide their own future and do anything that serve their national interest first, afterall that's what Donald trump stands for with his America first slogan 73 Likes 8 Shares |

BRICS is a joke. Trump's a patriot(most of the time), through and through, and he's all about putting America first. You can't have your cake and eat it, according to him, - you gotta choose between the US dollar or watching your economy go down the pan. It's their call. Trump's made it clear, he won't let anyone mess with the US dollar, and if you're not on board, you're on your own. You have a choice. Choose freedom🦅🦅🇺🇲! 27 Likes 3 Shares |

God1000:The BRICS nations are free to make their own decisions. At least the US is not planning to invade them like Russia did to Ukraine for deciding their own future. Now, if you're gonna chat about ditching the US dollar and reduce reliance, you gotta ask yourself, why are you still using it? The US dollar is still the global reserve currency, and it's hard to see that changing anytime soon. The BRICS countries still got a long way to go before they can challenge the US, know what I'm saying? So, yeah, it's all good and well to talk about replacing the US dollar(your choice), but until someone comes up with a viable alternative, it's just chat. The US economy is still the biggest and the strongest, and it's gonna stay that way for the foreseeable future. Who in their right mind will want to follow Russia after they've proven to be so weak? 😂 43 Likes 4 Shares |

Which liberty are you talking about? Even before our very eyes, Ukraine couldn't have the liberty to join NATO but got invaded by Russia. Same Putin wants to create BRICS to rival America. God1000: 10 Likes |

Botragelad: This is a viable alternative man If Donald trump actually read a book, he’d learn that neither protectionism nor isolationism work in this 21st century, these countries can do the same tarrif on US as well You don't know that U.S. arrogance and bullish behavior is the very reason BRICS was formed He's going to destroy US economy and push allies away, he knows nothing 41 Likes 7 Shares |
Re: Trump Threatens BRICS Countries Over Abandoning The Dollar by Botragelad: 8:33am On Dec 01 |
God1000:Saying Trump doesn't read books is a cheap shot. Lol But, let's focus on the the part we here for. BRICS is never a viable alternative to the US-led global order as you guys call it, because it's just a loose association of countries with different economic systems, political structures, and interests. They're not exactly a cohesive unit, if you know what I mean. The US has been using tariffs and other trade restrictions to protect its interests for ages. It's not like Trump invented protectionism. Lol Now, about those tariffs. Yeah, other countries can impose tariffs on the US, but it's not a straightforward game of tit-for-tat. The US has a massive economy, and its trade relationships are large. Imposing tariffs on the US would likely hurt other countries more than it would hurt the US. China for one doesn't want that. Whatever Trump plans to do is his issue. One thing about politics is you can never fully predict the outcome, so keep spectating. Every country will want to place it's interest first, sincerely that's how you survive! 14 Likes 2 Shares |

MadamVanessa: So countries like China, Brazil, Egypt and South Africa are foolish because they're pursuing an independent and sovereign foreign policy not influenced by Washington? Member States in BRICS are using their national currency to conduct international trade because the United States have decided to use the dollar as an instrument of war. If you say they sanctioned Russia because they invaded Ukraine, please tell me who sanctioned the United States when they invaded Iraq🇮🇶, murdered millions of Iraqi citizens looking for non existent weapon of mass destruction? 50 Likes 6 Shares |

psucc: So please which of the BRICS member States are small country? It will backfire and further isolate the United States with the rest of the Global Majority. EU and US does not have the market(population) nor do they have the natural resources (oil and gas⛽) to replace what BRICS is bringing to the table. He will be rendering a huge favor to BRICS 32 Likes 3 Shares |

Botragelad: At the bolded, I think they understand their differences fully well before going ahead to form the organization, so just leave that to them. And don't forget that China is also a massive economy and can fight back, Donald trump needs to wake and tread with caution or US consumers will be at the receiving end 12 Likes 1 Share |

Imagine China trying to sell their products to us market to earn dollars and then there is a 100 percent tariff. It'll discourage Americans from buying from them. And china as exporter dependent on mostly US market would loose a significant share of the American market. Now also imagine the bric nations buying from themselves with their own currency. Imagine India paying rubees to Russia for products and the Indian rupee looses value, who then looses There's a reason Gold is like the default if currencies and it's same reason US dollar is the default for trades. No matter where you go, a dollar is a dollar 5 Likes |

I trust America more than China or Russia as the only superpower. America , Japan, S Korea and the EU for example have a moral way of doing things, protect rights and freedoms of their people though some of their leaders are selfish. China and Russia. Are not trustworthy at all, if they had the power America has they would bludgeon weaker nations China is not charitable at all like the countries I mentioned 13 Likes 2 Shares |
