The GWP was around US$78.28 trillion in nominal terms and totalled approximately US$107.5 trillion in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP).
US is only US$19 trillion in GDP.
Total World trade of goods and services are $41.6 trillion.
US trade contribute only $4.9 trillion.
EU trade = $5.4 trillion (more than US).
China and HK trade = $5.6 trillion (more than US).
Japan trade = $1.6 trillion.
S Korea trade = $1.1 trillion.
Canada trade = $0.984 trillion.
Singapore trade = $0.917 trillion.
India trade = $0.917 trillion.

The World by cooperating (without US) contribute = $36.7 trillion.
You think the World cannot live without US?

The World must try to trade, do business, invest - without the Trump led US - that is trying to bring the World to his knees.
The World must operate as though Trump-led US don't exist in this World.
Multi-lateral trade deals such as RCEP, trade with EU, CPTPP etc are very good multi-lateral trade deals - to build an effective "Trade Firewall" to prevent Trump led US from holding the World hostage in trade.

There will be pain while doing so.
But eventually when everyone succeed, Trump led US will be effectively "cut out" from the Global Supply Chain and the Global Trade.
Then the World will wait for Trump - to crawl back to the World with both his knees - 三跪九叩 - to beg the Worldto take US back to the World Global Trade.
The World must stand resolute and determination in building up the "World Trade Firewall" - against Trump bullying and strong arm tactics to bring the World to the knees.
The World should in turn bring Trump on his knees and crawl back - to beg for mercy.

I think the world can work well without Trump. Let him be alone talking to the wall. By now the world should not be taken in by him. Treat him as a mad man from USA.

With or without USA, I believe the global trade can still operate under the WTO umbrella. The WTO forms the important framework for reaching trade concensus . If WTO shuts down, whose ruling to follow ? Seem very much that Trump is trying to create his own version of Trump Trade Organization (TTO) akin to how he gotten every building to trademark his TRUMP name and draw royalty fee in returns. Great plan and vision for a man daring to dream big !!!

Without USA...the WTO will be like a car with 3 wheels only.
I am sure...Trump will stop Swift from being used as payment systems for trade between member nations of WTO.
The USA has the power to ban the use of Swift...just like those nations or companies who violated the US sanctions... against Iran, N Korea and Cuba...
Swift has over 15,000 banks and financial organisations affiliated with it...and trading between nations is hampered seriously without the use of these gigantic organisational networks..for settling payments in international trade.
Without a parallel international trade organisation(new, yet to be set up), ...now the USA can do without WTO...but the WTO cannot survive without USA.

Trump is consistent..very consistent, in his action against international organisation....dumping the UNESCO, NAFTA, TPP, Paris Accord, and soon WTO.
If the USA withdrew from WTO, then it will not survive...the end of WTO.
In anticipation of such a move, Europe and Iran are in the process of forming a parallel organisation..to take over all the functions now undertaken by WTO. The preliminary meeting, the Europeans had with Iran and others was held last week.
However, the USA has control over the Swift Payment system and has stop payment to those who engage in business deals with Iran and…See More

the issue is its rationality..with supporting stats which he claims.. and a 'reality check' is needed..I suppose..cos he could be aiming for votes of US farmbelt..

If the USA should leave the World Trade Organisation but invite some country to be a fair trading partner, the country will jump for joy and accept. Few will be the countries that will not accept. This is fact.

So if you dont want to accept, its up to you. It will be your lost.

Defiers are Cowards doers' 'rD'Do'ers Are Fools, up to Trump to choose which shoe fits??

Yes, PRC is a big bully but it is the country who has the right or share in South China Sea give up the fight. Philippines is one of them. Why? because all these poor countries want money from China. Trump on the other hand bullies everyone whom he dislikes. Do you think he fight for Americian people? No he fright for his business. Do you think he cans win over North Korea? He knows he is loosing but play soft ball. Why? to save his own face.
