    perhaps "china" was just a sleight-of-hand to divert attention away from the possibility that

    the useful idiot is merely following Putin's order to effect a trade war between the US and NATO countries
    towards more economic instability​

    One thing I am not advocating is jobs for Canadians - because I’m not Canadian.

    That’s not why I posted the link and quote quit trying to deflect. You know exactly why the adverse effects of tariffs and trade wars has on the economy.

    Moving forward. Well, Trump did campaign on trade deficit and all this stuff and probably got lots of votes on it. These voters will never know if Trump is right if Congress stop Trump. So I said, let it happen. Go protectionism (not just this but all his loving tariff ideas) and see if Trump is right.

    Trump has been consistent on this kind of economic rhetoric for nearly 30 years. This is a political move, probably not to “win” votes for R’s but to “kill” votes for D’s.

    Wait until job loss pile in in Auto, construction equipment manufacturing sectors, should really make those blue collar white workers happy.
