So you are ok with government telling a private business where they can and cannot manufacture goods? Why do you hate freedom?

I don’t think trump is actually ordering anything.

In his usual clumsy way with words, he is basically just imploring companies to do business elsewhere.

We shall see.
All quite possible. I'm simply pointing out the level of melt if Obama had tweeted something 1/10 as extreme.

I disagree.

They know the limitations Trump has (respectfully, sir, you cannot "order" private businesses to do anything relative to their operations not supposed by the law) and they know they "own" enough Congress-critters to stall any legislation with real teeth.

I don't really care for the "ordered", simply because nutjobs will latch solely onto that and ignore the rest.

well given that we fought a fricking war to not be under the control of a king.

It's called a bluff folks. Quit freaking out.

Just a negotiation strategy.

Not cool with ANY president telling private business how they have to do business.


He didn't pass a law. Nothing wrong with using the bully pulpit.

Is it just me or did the Dow fall like 400 points at the exact time Trump tweeted?
