Trump to impose tariff on steel and aluminium, geaux Trump!

This is all good and dandy, my man. But, free markets would work better if all participants acted in a fair manner. Is it not true that China imposes a tariff of 25% on some or all imported vehicles made in America (e.g. Tesla)?

I think is trying to make a point in that regard. It is the way he is approaching this problem (tweets, lol) that is giving wall street heart burn.

 

I think it (the car tariff) was a retaliation toward Obama's tariff on Chinese tires or other stuff.

 

I am sure just another (awkward) coincidence... what was that word again? Oh yea, nepotism. And I wonder how many other trump products come from China?

Well, you can't say I didn't call this bullsh!t two weeks ago:

A couple of banker friends who work with farmers every day told me last week that with commodity prices down and the tariffs imposed, approximately 10 percent of our farmers probably won’t make it this year, and 10 percent more will likely fail next year. They also shared the news that in Iowa, larger agribusinesses are buying up smaller farms that are in financial trouble, and that people are starting to make comparisons to the farm crisis of the 1980s, when approximately 10,000 Iowa farmers lost their farms.

this is straight up ****ing his supporters:

China’s Ministry of Commerce on Wednesday said it plans to impose 25 percent duties on the commodity in addition to other U.S. agricultural produce including wheat, corn, cotton, pork, sorghum, tobacco and beef.

 

What you don't understand is that farmers are patriots. They will make the sacrifice to make america great again. Unlike the diseased liberal mind.

 

But Trump is doing what he said he would. He preached protectionism throughout this campaign.

So... were these supporters...

Understood what protectionism is and what it would yield, but didn't care for whatever reasons?

Didn't understand what protectionism is and what it would yield, but trusted Trump?

I guess... there is always the ... didn't want to understand, since hate and fear.

 

Whitch one are you? Lou or the other guy?

 

So are you going to be confused every time I am sarcastic?

 

As needed.

How often are you going to change personalities?

 

As often as will irritate you.

 

So you're telling me that the people of Iowa, a state that made out much more handsomely than their neighbors during the Obama years, voted against their self interests out of white plight, are now having their small businesses slaughtered by the man they brought in?

Well played Iowans. Well played. Your foresight as the vanguard in presidential primaries is well deserved.

 

Well . .. those farmers will understand
and
take one for the team
