Well, he could have just told them he would "bankrupt" them or "shut them down" like your boy Obama did. And I think it was more of a suggestion than an order. He wants the best for American manufacturers and those that continue to deal with and in China are about to experience what a TRUE American Patriot President can do when he isn't beholden to a country like China.

He's suggesting that they start looking elsewhere because.....

Make it a law if we want private industry to operate a certain manner.


....we are about to impose major restrictions and tariffs on Chinese imports.

So he's doing exactly what he's supposed to do.

Nah, he used the term “hereby” to make his “order” sound more official.

How is this authoritarian rhetoric to be viewed as anything but anti-free enterprise?

We got ourselves a real anti-business President. Dude has no idea what capitalism is....

Point being missed here....as usual. China is the foe, not Trump. Go ahead and side with the Chinese who have been stealing blind. It’s not like Trump issued an executive order. Evaluate the tweet in context. It’s really not that difficult.

I'm laughing at everyone that is focusing solely on "order".



It's a clear warning that something bigger than tariffs may be coming - such as bans on some products entirely.

I would expect something codified by Q12020.

This is so 6-12 months ago and the markets came back. No need in getting all bent out of shape.

None of them would roll back these restrictions blindly without concessions.

I work for one of these companies who could care less about it's people. We need these greedy companies who left for cheap arse labor to come back or find some other cheap arse labor country.

It just doesn't get any more Progressive than this, and Trumpers don't even realize it.

As a conservative capitalist, I am NOT okay with Trump trying to force private businesses to conduct business a certain way. frick that.

Are you up in arms about the NK, Iran, and Cuba sanctions? I've never seen anyone complaining about those. This isn't some new thing.

The market is down 400. Protracted trade wars will not end well for the planet.
