WW3 on horizon after Trump orders Australia and Japan to get ready for war with China This announcement is a day late and a dollar short. Japan already bought an eye-watering number of F35 jets, the US sent a shitload of F16s to the Philippines, and Australia is leading the rear, but knows they have no choice. Donald Duck loves good theater and, if nothing else, this is merely his way of putting more pressure on the Chinese economy. At this point, we'll just have to wait and see, but I expect the bullshit to fly faster and thicker from here on out.
