Four more years, you know what, it will be fixed, it will be fine, you won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians." He added: "I love you Christians. I'm a Christian. I love you, get out, you gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don't have to vote again, we'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote," Trump said.

You don’t. I trade a little. I hold options. Not everyone is the same.

back when Obama was in office SNL had a hilarious skit called “how’s he doing?”…a talk show with Kenan and other black cast members talking about what Obama would have to do to lose their support



They should reboot this for MAGAts

Feels similar to watching a toddler playing with a loaded gun. Unfortunately, millions of US voters are hoping the gun goes off.

I'd rather have money in my pocket and let shitheads keep dying. Why do we care so much that drug addicts overdose?

We do for the better part. But there is a point at which you have to defend your nation from predators.

Btw, history is there for all to see. Free Trade is a Dem plan pushed by FDR. Immediately Goals were set by the communists. Those goals are actually entered into congressional records and are meant to change the west. One thing is for certain, if it's on that list, it's not in our best interest.

One of those is "free Trade with Communist nations". Turns out, free trade was morphed into a redistribution of wealth.

Also, history shows that tariffs are not the bad guy. All anybody really wants to talk about is the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, but history did not start with that.

Already you have Canada caving. The 2nd largest company in Canada pretty much called out Trudeau telling him truths:

- This will not hurt the USA. It's going to hurt our own people.
- and what the US is requesting from us is reasonable.

Yes it is. Stop allowing China to smuggle Fentanyl into the USA that kills people and cost the USA dollars. It's that simple.

Canadian companies are also talking about relocating to the US:

The massive ego of a narcissist.

There are better ways to do this without hurting us by using a sledgehammer.

Guess Ronald Reagan was a communist. Who knew?
"Part of the difficulty in accepting the good news about trade is in our words. We too often talk about trade while using the vocabulary of war. In war, for one side to win, the other must lose. But commerce is not warfare. Trade is an economic alliance that benefits both countries. There are no losers, only winners. And trade helps strengthen the free world.

"Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogs who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

We asked nicely and was ignored by our "friends".

They are going to cave because they have to. Canadian companies are already looking into moving to the USA.

The 2nd largest company in Canada is on the USA side of things.

Show me where I stated anything remotely close to that.

"Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogs who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.


And what do we do when they are not acting like our allies? We have already asked nicely. An Ally would have changed direction on what they have been allowing.



Btw, Trump used tariffs last term. Our economy was the better for it. Not everything is black and white.
