Hard News: Be careful what you wish for, in reply to Rich of Observationz,
The idea that the Chinese can just bang on the door and demand their cash back is naive and wrong.
Thanks, I'm getting a free education here...

China
Perhaps China will want the money the US owes it back?
US Economy. The U.S. debt to China is $1.185 trillion, as of August 2016. That's 30% of the $3.948 trillion in Treasury bills, notes, and bonds held by foreign countries. The rest of the $19 trillion debt is owned by either the American people or by the U.S. government itself.Oct 22, 2016

I'm not seeing the benefit to us the viewers of TV1 (or whatever it calls itself these days) of indulging in the expense of having both Jack Tame and Mike Hosking metres away from each other covering the Clinton campaign's party venue.
Seems to me there are better things for them to spend their money on than indulging Hosking's need to be seen to be on the spot - he strikes me as more of a Trump man anyway... -
