Over/Under 10 days before we start seeing the Chinese flag in people's bios?

Your claims are all gossip-level nonsense.


Only because youre not capable of doing independent research, if you did you would realize its the ideology you used to pretend to support.


I remember the PT laughing at Obama's 900k per job Tire deal.

Now you would applaud him

No. There's nothing conservative about fiscal policy for more than 20 years.


You do realize political parties evolve and change when world events change?

Bet you think H.W. Bush was a better President than Teddy Roosevelt

This is an incredibly radical shift to leftist economics.

Will be very interesting to see if y'all embrace these same policies beyond Trump.

Well considering my most liked politicians are Vance and Hawley and they are more populist than Trump you don't have to worry

Vance was a never trumper. He's just being a good team-mate until his time arrives.


He's too intelligent to rule as a populist.

Nope

He's not a populist and is biding his time.

He will govern more with reason over emotion. After Obama, Trump and Biden, thats a godsend.

No, it's a tactic to try to get the world off the American taxpayer's back. It's an honest effort to say, "If we have to pay you to do business with us, you aren't an ally or trading partner, you are a business adversary." Which is how it should always should have been viewed, and how we should have treated it.

If they are implemented in order to protect American manufacturers and the American people from being taken advantage of, I wouldn't care if it's Gavin Newsome or AOC doing so. America First.

We are number two in the world, and per capita better than China.

All you have to do is spend 10 minutes researching. The "Manufacturing is lost" people are lying to you.

We offshore trinkets, and produce higher value products here that pay better because they are semi skilled.

What about all the food imports that are undercutting our ag and seafood industries ?

Also we offshore high level manufacturing to South Korea, Taiwan , and Mexico

We have foreign car companies building cars here but Ford and GM can’t ? Even though they got bailed out by the taxpayers more than once

Again, you don’t know what the hell you are talking about. I sell millions of dollars of those “trinkets” every year, that have been nearly completely offshored over the last 30 years.
