The Biden Administration was importing illegal immigrants to vote and we now have the data — and more is coming. 5 million. Granted maximum Social Security. 1.3 million got Medicaid. All eligible to vote where they were needed — which explains the secret night flights landing illegals in small towns to change the voting profiles of states.
The movie Thirteen Days has a scene where Admiral George Whelan Anderson Jr. is arguing with Sec.Def. Robert McNamara. McNamara explains the blockade is President Kennedy communicating with Secretary Khrushchev.
That is what is going on with these tariffs. President Trump is sending a message — free trade is zero tariffs and zero currency manipulation, trade barriers, and subsidies. ZERO. You don’t get to enter our markets and destroy our factories, industries, states, towns, cities, and people (leaving ghost towns, shells, and broken lives behind) without paying a stiff price while protecting you home markets.
Tariffs = Communications, and Canada, Europe, Mexico, South America, and Asia asked for it.
This is The Cuban Missile Crisis of Trade. This is a blockade of products from countries who cheat — be they faux friends, alleged allies, or aggressive adversaries, …, President Trump is firing star burst shells over your ships, turn back, 5 inch rounds to follow, … turn back. https://youtu.be/BYRCTHj7k8Y And guess what — after all the whining and caterwauling, they will. Germany will have to eat their dirty diesels, build 100% of their BMW’s here, China’s solar panels will fill warehouses, and lithium (rare earth) mining, processing, and manufacturing will return to the US of A. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and build Sony TV’s and Hyundai autos here.
Weve been in a functional recession for the middle to lower class for 3 years now. My income has been down 40% and expemses increased 30% while my home value decreased 20%. Im not the only one. Extrapolate that out and the reality of the economic conditiom of this country becomes much clearer. Make diesel $1.50/gal again.
Reminder: There is NO example in the history of advanced economies when sweeping tariffs had the positive effects the protectionist Trump team believes are waiting for us on the other side of this tariff push and trade war. Not. One
A recession now is worth it if it paves the way to prosperity later.
Haven’t economists predicted 12 of the last three recessions?
Unrelated, but always relevant, it turns out the accusations were true — look at this: https://x.com/WallStreetApes/status/1906526419079082173

As I’ve always said about Trump, watch his hips, not his lips…

Free trade is the ideal, but all foreign trade is subject to politics. This is especially true if a foreign government can buy US politicians.
