When you owe someone a trillion dollars, it's important to be polite to them.

Well, you know how it is...

You borrow some money from China and then 30 minutes later you're hungry for more.

Look at how much of our debt China owns.

You have to wonder if Clinton actually left a surplus or a lot of the debt was refinanced through Chinese loans.

Taiwan has oil, when China invades we won't do a damn thing.

If you're bored.... find out who owns Dollar store.
