    People blame him for no reason. Stephen Miller believes in tariffs even more so than Ron. Trump loves tariffs more than any of his advisors and has always worshipped William Mckinney the tariff president. He has paintings of him. Blaming Ron when it's trump who put him in place is just giving trump a scapegoat.

    Trump owns this and nobody else

    Talk is cheap, when you have to pay with your money and you are not in the top 10%, we all know what will happen.

    We have handed China the greatest diplomatic victory in decades. Japan and Korea are talking trade with China. Do you have any idea how bad you have to **** up to have Japan nd China talking?

    Japan and Korea doesn't want to be cut off from the Asian century. They're already losing infra deals to China. It's way more competitive than 10 yrs ago.

    I guess TPP would've blunted that but Americans only care about TP to wipe their asses with.

    You have to work really hard to be this r****ded. The entire world has been talking trade with China for 20 years now.

    Yep, everyone is playing both sides and wants the status quo to continue.

    China stealing IP and overproducing everything is as unsustainable as bubbas buying nothing but cheap crap and b****ing that school is hard and college is a waste of time and money.

    Trump well take whatever deal that will make it look like a win…no matter how minor or flimsy and massage into a win…

    Then the powerful right wing media sphere (which includes Twitter) will push the narrative forward.

    Everyone is laughing at him and us. The idea that they can't find someone to consume their stuff is just silly. There are 5.7 billion people that would love to get cheap stuff from China.

    Companies will just build stuff where it's easiest and cheapest. They won't build anything they don't have in the US since supply chain will be a nightmare with the tariffs.

    Have y’all noticed all these new commercials from automakers in the wake of these dumbass tariffs?

    Ford commercial running nonstop about how they’re made in America and have been looking out for Americans…and how they’re offering employee pricing

    Toyota commercial running nonstop about how they’re committed to not raising prices in what the commercial says “are unprecedented times”
