Trump seems to be "high on his own supply", and convinced that the EU will lay down and take whatever he feels like dishing out, to maintain access to the US market. I'm sure that is what all his underlings are telling him. That is why he put those people in place. The honchos at a couple places I worked were equally confident they were perfect and always right.

The irony is, he could have invaded Panama, with no more than some squirming by our allies, like 41 did. And he could have made an instant profit off the canal, by controlling access.

‘Good Luck’: Trump Predicts Who to Blame Over Panama Failure

The Hong Kong-based conglomerate CK Hutchison Holdings has agreed to sell control of its port operations near the Panama Canal to a consortium led by BlackRock. The consortium will acquire 90% of Panama Ports Company, which manages the Balboa and Cristobal ports. When praising the deal during his address to Congress, President Donald Trump placed responsibility on Secretary of State Marco Rubio, saying, “Good luck, Marco. Now we know who to blame if anything goes wrong.”

Trump said, “We’re taking it back. The Panama Canal was built by Americans for Americans, not for others.”

Apparently, the Panamanian Supreme Court has not handed down it's decision, yet, whether Hutchinson is fulfilling it's contract, or not.
