My best friend lost his job at a BMW plant in South Carolina because of the trade wars and tariffs. It’s like he’s afraid of being wrong and humiliated for not understanding how economics work. This board is so biased and it’s laughable. I’m out.

Proof? If he lost his job, it was over something else.

I've had hundreds of friends GET jobs because of Trump's trade policies. So, there you go. Trump wins again.

If your friend lost his job, it’s a good thing we are at full employment.

It shouldn’t take him long to find a other job.

But since this is your made up fairy tale, you can give it whatever ending you would like.

You have no best friend with a job at a BMW plant in South Carolina.

If I want a BMW, I'm going to make me purchase in Germany. I can save enough by purchasing there that it pays for the trip to go spend a week in Europe. Sucks that your buddy lost his job. He should have studied harder and made something of his life instead of working on an assembly line.

Trade isn’t as simple as your principles of econ makes it out to be.

Luckily your friend can just go out and get a new job since TRUMP is creating so many of them.

I’m not going to say you’re lying, but a quick google search has shown the BMW plant in South Carolina was planning on adding jobs as recently as last month. If your best friend lost his job, it doesn’t seem like it’s due to layoffs based on the threat of tariffs.

Why don’t you come answer to the guy who has proof you are either trolling or your friend sucks at his job?

Both you and your friend can move to China and make Harley Davidson’s since you hate it here so much.
