I agree. I think we should return to making China stronger by allowing them to exploit our markets and being locked out of theirs. And we should do this right away.
As far as the extreme weather, most of it is likely due to China who run the giant production plants on coal power. The same plants that make disposable widgets for us to buy. Am I wrong?
Let me guess. We need a calculated, measure approach to China’s theft and exploitation. Let grown-ups talk about it as they have for the last 30 years.
Is the answer to my question hidden in your reply? I’m not seeing it if it is.
Who’s going to bail out the farmers this time after the latest Trump debacle?
Just as a reminder, the first Trump tariff debacle of 2018 cost the American Taxpayer 16+ billion dollars to bail out the farmers, and that debacle would be considered small potatoes when compared to the current debacle he’s gotten into.
You are going to bail them out. Just as you have been bailing out SS, Dept. of Education, Student loans, USAID, eighty thousand IRS worker, NATO, and gender studies in South America. Why the moaning and groaning now?
You’ve been preaching how Trump is going to save us all from all these bad countries and bad people who have been screwing us all these years, you’ve been trying in vain to make excuses for that idiot con-man!
Well as of yet, all he’s managed to do is he’s taken the worlds best economy and the most admired country on the planet and fckd it up.
And his economic debacle is only one of the reasons, albeit currently his biggest, this happening.
I hope you realize that Trump dismantling all these agencies, health care, universities, the judicial system, etc. has nothing to do with saving us money
It’s has to do with smaller government, decentralizing government, removing unelected power structures which has been the cornerstone of conservative Republicans for a long time (not the Rhino’s or the uni-party lawmakers).
I look forward to it. Of course, the sky is falling left will say something like “Hitler used the same techniques.” I do not care what they say. Big government and socialism has always been the catalyst for tyranny. It exists right now in Australia, Germany, France and even the UK. Freedoms are eroding in front of their eyes. Free speech is a joke. Their leftist power mongers are moving against any opposition as quickly as they can. Hate speech is the “offense” they use to silence their opposition, since they get to determine what hate speech is. Canada has been long gone. They may never recover.
So you think we were in a good position? Our bubble economy was sustainable? Our industrial losses negligible? Our trade relations served America? Our dependence on China for computers, phones, and pharmaceuticals etc. was OK? How about Germany? We couldn’t sell a car there. How about Japan? Couldn’t sell much there.
You are equating Wallstreet with financial security of the average American. I think that is the wrong attitude.
Who is they? Trump? The media? The EU? If you are telling me academia or the media has the real picture then you might as well understand you are as delusional as you think I am.
A troll is someone who posts in order to provoke a reaction. They aren’t asking for information. They may or may not even believe what they’re saying. They’re just getting their entertainment by getting people to react. The word comes from a fishing method of dragging a baited line through the water.
I don’t think we were in a good position, I know we were, the numbers don’t lie.
But what you or I think is just that, I prefer to listen to the experts in the field of economics and form an opinion based on what they say, and what they’re saying and have been saying, is Trump is wrecking our economy.
Tariffs have their place, and if done methodically and with precision they can have the desired effect. But the way tariff man has gone about it, according to every economist and businessperson I’ve heard and read about in the news, is all wrong. He’s already done irreparable harm, not only to the economy, but to our standing on the world stage, and things will only get worse if he doesn’t do a 180 and reverse course, and soon.
Precision and methodical are code words for status quo. Trump reset the chess board. We are at zero and everything is on the table.
And we have the tallest pile of chips. But the CCP and TDS controlled media won’t let the word out. Did you see that Guardian post? It was deranged. Their Chinese knee pads are hard at work, that is obvious.
CNN is hard at work too. They forgot all about why they lost all their viewers. They have the disease and its incurable. The CCP is very very proud.
The on again off again on again partially off again maybe on again no off again but on again in 2 weeks, is screaming to us that he hasn’t a clue. And (most) everyone knows it.
