It’s not being reckless with the economy to demand returns on our investments and generosity. In fact it’s the opposite. Canada has thumbed their nose at meeting NATO obligations. Mexico has allowed lawlessness and it’s been coming hard across the southern border. The CCP is cheating, lying, and has no respect for human rights. The leftists are deranged to support what hasn’t been addressed by their POTUS pu**ies. Go write a f’g poem or sing something to make your feels all better.

It took trump less than two months to throw the world markets into turmoil while convincing his sycophants that it's in their best interest. The guy is one hell of a salesman, can't argue that.

I would give anything to see how his big mouth correlates to his put and calls.

China just hit Canada with a 100 percent tariff.

It’s not just a us thing.

Trump is trying to bring back a lot of business to the us to be made by us citizens. Whether he can pull it off or not I am not sure but it’s obvious he is trying to break companies. Not countries. Companies.

If stock held company A produces sugar in China for 10 cents a package and sells it for 30 cents and US company produces sugar here for 20 cents a package and sells for 35 cents if company A does not eat the tariff and raise their price to match the US version they will lose market share. So many decide it’s just cheaper to produce in the country you sell to which is what he wants.

Again, whether it happened or not we will all see.

Lower taxes. Especially on those using their wealth to provide capital. We’re supposed to be a capitalist society, not primarily socialist.

Expose government waste and schemes (NGOs).

Invest tax dollars in things that have paybacks and ROI. Work towards shutting down vote buying programs bloated with handouts. Like Carter’s gift to unions with the DOEd.

Run the country more like a business than a charity.

Fed spending has doubled since 2015. Running the printing presses nonstop aint running it like a business. Taking Biden's extremely bloated budget and INCREASING spending???

You want to fix the economy. Get spending in line with a 2015 baseline. Not a frivilous Biden spending baseline...

These tariff threats and talking points shouldn’t be a surprise to anybody that was paying attention for the last year.

You’re triggered with the off kilter Never Trumper hatred.

tariff threats sent the market into a 900 point nosedive.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

You can’t cut a lot with about a trillion each being spent on Medicare/Social Security, interest on the debt, and defense. This administration is at least actually looking for the inefficiencies. A billion here. At billion there. At some point it will be real money.

Despite the misguided left’s soak the rich, envy based tax policy cheerleading the country can’t tax itself to prosperity. Investing in infrastructure, creating jobs, and collecting taxes from bigger payrolls is the path that I favor.

They are looking at "D" waste (and there is plenty of it). Defense on the other hand.....

Right. We should just keep doing what we are doing and getting screwed by other countries. Look we have seen this game plan work before. Stop clutching pearls if your wife hasn’t already removed them.

We're going to burn down our own economy while hoping a little smoke gets in our neighbors' eyes.

Pearl clutching? We just saw the worst day in the market in two years and consumer confidence just saw its biggest freefall in four years.

LOL, pearl clutching.

You in particular would be the first to bellyache if Biden had done this.
