Many of the businesses in those countries are owned by Chinese.

Our supplier set up two assembly shops in Tailand and Malaysia. The semi-finished parts are sent to the shops and have those finished there before shipping out to the US. For doing so, we can save 25% tariff.

When did he do this? If I'm not mistaken, 2019 saw more border crossers than any Obama year.


Nope. He had a stay in Mexico deal worked out. arrests does not equal stayed here,

Where did they end up, jjdoc? Do you think there are 3 million illegals waiting in border towns for the green light to come over? No, they're all here.

Trump did not stem the tide of illegals into this country.

I'm not stupid because you were gaslighted about Covid.

A lot of you down voted any positive talk about NAFTA 2. Then you continued to down vote because Biden did the right thing and followed through with it instead of Trump is bad.

If Reagan was running in 2024 he wouldn't pass this board's ideological purity tests

Ronnie Raygun didn't get my vote for a 2nd term because he lied about increasing Americans freedoms by ramping up the police state and like Trump and the Dems on spending he ended up literally quadrupling the total US debt (some would argue that he had to buy us out of stagflation, and the "Star Wars" spending did indeed lead to the economic boom of the 90's). But I will never forgive the Reagan Administration for Civil Asset Forfeiture which made police revenue agents instead of law enforcement. (Wanna clean up the streets from crime? Find an economic incentive for DA's to prosecute everything.)

He’s our century’s Andrew Jackson. He even fought the the Bank just like Jackson. This illustrates Trump’s moves to counter the FED clearly: The FED

Was cutting taxes for the working class a good thong?
Cutting taxes without cutting spending was just populist stupidity, exchanging today’s burden for a still-greater burden in a few years. In other words, buying votes from people who cannot do basic math.

This is the great thing that Trump did. Other than this, he was an average president, but THIS was a big thing.



Jesus. If he was average, why is so many of trumps ideas continue to be used by biden.

From the vaccine roll out that biden said was going to originally be administered at these large areas, he shifted to trumps plans of being given at local pharmacies to his border policies that the left literally cried over that biden is going to return under different names, even the potato is switching his policies to what Trump was doing.

"Since we can't cut spending just accept unfair tax codes. Keep busting arse, the rest of America depends on you."

As a direct result of those trade war tariffs, China has now fallen behind Mexico and Canada to become America’s third-largest trading partner. Before the tariff wars began in July 2018, China was number one.

So Mexico and Canada are buying Chinese and packaging it, then selling to US

And inflation increased dramatically.

There's a close correlation.
