“Who knew?”

It will be tariffick! Give it time. 2 or 3 years should do it.

Funny how the Chinese CRAP being made for Ivanka’s line of grossly overpriced cheap clothes is convienently exempt from ANY tariffs or import restrictions, isn’t it?? And the same for the MAGA hats that come FROM CHINA!!

The hardcore MAGA folks will somehow find a way to blame Hillary/Obama/CNN/Deep State/etc. It’s just the sacrifice we all have to make so Trump can “fix things” or some other nonsense.

Where are the RWNJs who support this latest set of “Deals” from the GREAT Businessman?

All I know, from Mainstream Media i.e. NBC, ABC, and CBS, is that the unemployment rate is 4% with people who weren’t counted before due to not looking are now back in the job force. Also the steel and aluminum industries in the USA are booming. Also skilled jobs are going wanting and they are paying big bonuses to attract people to those jobs. The Democrats are desperate to try and make everything look dismal with the elections coming up, but their friends the MSM are actually reporting facts across the news spectrum, not just what the Democrats want reported, i.e. the border problems.

We truly have come to the place in the American Experience where a large segment of the populace has become completely delusional!

A “wire cage” and an “enclosed, yet open-air environmental setting” are just two ways of describing the exact same thing, but which one would YOU rather be in? This is the reason “perception” is the greater part of reality! I make this long-winded assertion by way of introducing the fact that I spent an “eternity”, recently’ watching “Fox News” one day and I am now convinced, once again, that there truly ARE different realities in America and, also, once again, I am reminded that there are very good reasons WHY I have relatives that truly believe that Donald john Trump is a competent though “put-upon” president and NOT a bumbling, bloviating incompetent buffoon!

Thank the gods for the existence of “fact-checking” websites!

I’m guessing that they don’t teach Planning 101 at Wharton anymore.

@"Olo" — You may get excited over these ‘job numbers,’ but what you choose to ignore is that our American workers have lower real hourly wages today than they had in May 2017! Sadly, in the United States, nearly 15 percent of workers earn less than half of the median wage [ Source: Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development ].

And that was one of his more lucid statements.

The price of medical equipment like defibrillators and pacemakers are rising and lobsters are lying on the docks unsold. Soybean farmers are hurting and others can’t get anyone to pick their crops. WINNING!

@"Olo" — It’s called playing the cards with a crooked deck! It’s called ‘screwing the workers.’ [ Just ask #45’s limo driver! ]
