People will stop listening or taking him seriously. He's spouted about a border tax of 25%. Won't happen. He's spouted about Mexico paying for a wall. Won't happen. He's spouted about how everyone will have insurance after the ACA is repealed. Won't happen. He's also spouted a bunch of other things that everyone knows is bull or blowing off steam. If he continues like this, folks at home and around the world will just stop taking seriously anything he says or tweets.

He is breaking the PC culture and America thanks him for it.

Well. He said he was going to stop companies from leaving and make jobs a priority. I'd say he's 2/2. So he's off to a pretty solid start And he isnt even president yet.

Yes, and it's liberating. So many liberals pull their hair out because they think that Trump means what he says. He doesn't. He could tweet tomorrow that is ordering the arrest of every reporter at CNN and it won't upset me, because he won't do it, doesn't mean it.

Some manufacturers has said they will stay in the U.S. and others have said no. He threatened the 25% border tax after Toyota and BMW and Ford told him no, but he won't do it. Also, engaging in public yapping contests over a couple of individual assembly lines here and there is not a national policy in a multi trillion dollar economy. It's a side show.

Several companies have come out with announcements. BMW is the only one I know of to come out against him and he's just telling them to be prepared for a tarriff (whatev - they aren't even American).

This is not a "side show". He's building momentum and leverage in public. If you don't understand that, you don't have a clue about how trump operates.

You can obviously see into the future. Links into the future would be appreciated or this stupid fricking thread will be whacked

Liberalism is seriously a mental disease folks, avoid it at all costs

Kind of like you and the rest of the imbecile libtards that are programmed to do what their masters in the democrat party tells them along with what to think and how and when to act retarded, which is a daily occurrence for freaks like you.

While I don't necessarily disagree with the premise of the thread, this isn't necessarily him, it's the Ryan plan, and thus it has a great shot if Trump wants it to happen.
