What Happens To The Brit Ownership Of Diego Garcia/Chagos Islands In The End?

 I think the Brits have worked themselves into a corner and intend to hand ownership over to the native crowd.

About four hours into this....Trump's crew shows up....buys the island area in some deal from the natives, and identifies it as US territory (maybe even hinting statehood with Guam attached).

At that point, the US position on the Falklands will come up....with Trump saying it's absolutely Argentina's property.

US basing in the UK?  I'm pretty sure all US installations on the isle....are on some to-be-closed list.

Four Things I Cannot Understand

 1.  President Trump gives a 16-minute talk covered by CNN.....afterwards, CNN's 'experts' spend near 40 minutes trying to explain Trump's talk.

2.  Espresso-Martini....at Oktoberfest....costing almost $20 (16.50 Euro).  It's simply a double-jolt of espresso (figure $4 or 3.5 Euro), some sugar (figure .50-cents or 1-Euro), and cheap double shot of vodka (figure $4 or 3.5 Euro).  

3.  NBC reports....keeping your refrigerator/freezer door CLOSED....is best for keeping food fresh.  If you asked a 9-year old kid about this....they already know it.

4.  Some BS-rumor started up....that Canada might be invaded by the US.
