Let's just take that one point, Gregg. To what degree has Trump improved anyone's employment picture ? What has he done to work with companies to rebuild and re employ ?
Tariffs have only caused more harm than good, ask any major manufacturer.
Oh, and about those illegals driving uninsured, watch the TV program LIVE PD. The vast majority of non licensed, non insured drivers they stop are lily white.
tariffs help and are needed
if you buy American..you wont pay
if you want china junk..be prepared to pay
an import tariff is a good thing
how about this question
why is Apple (an American company) manufacturing all its products in china, and not the Silicon Valley???? why should apple be allowed to import its foreign made products into the USA for free??? why is Apple screwing Americans, selling phones at $700+ a pop, while they are making them for 80 cents by paying slave wages to Chinese and not American wages to Americans??
I, and most educated Americans, want the iPhone/ipad made in America,... Apple is an American company, it should be making its product here, using an American workforce, made by Americans, for Americans @ American wages
that is the point of these tariffs, to reverse the outsourcing from the globalist liberal policies of "freetrade"
the key to these tariffs, not the country of origin, but that American companies have outsourced our labor force
why should GE (an American company HQ'd in CT) make all its alarm clocks etc in Mexico and Malaysia???
think about it
median USA hourly wage is 23-25/hr
median Mexico wage 160/week
and you wonder why GE makes all its alarm clocks in Mexico.... and PAYS ZERO to import them to the USA... do you think that is really fair??
why should GM (an American company HQ'd in Detroit, MI) make all its vehicles in Mexico???
think about it
GM assembly plant average hourly wage USA hourly wage is 45/hr
median Mexico wage 160/week
and you wonder why GM moved its assembly plants to Mexico.... and PAYS ZERO to import them to the USA... do you think that is really fair??
why should Apple (an American company HQ'd in Cupertino, California, ) make all its iphines, ipads, etc in china
think about it
median USA hourly wage is 23-25/hr
median china wage 228/week
and you wonder why Apple makes all its electronics in China and not the Silicon Valley.... and PAYS ZERO to import them to the USA... do you think that is really fair??
trump is trying to fix the screwup of the globalist liberals

To be globally competitive? The United States is end all/be of places to sell. Slapping on tariffs to products made elsewhere, the tariff will just be passed on to the American consumer. Slapping tariffs on raw materials makes our companies less competitive.
Eventually you will likely get companies that split their identity, a global version that doesn't sell to the US, and a US version that will only sell in the US since they won't be competitive globally.
At the rate of automation, do people believe tons of jobs will come back? Factories might, but it will be run by few workers.
I am independent. I don't think it makes them racists but it certainly implies that their priorities is messed up. It shows that their loyalties are with party not country.
Trump has a history of racism long before he was president. But he wasn't the only racist in the white house and won't be the last. Some racist presidents did rise above....
Is it just me or does anyone else agree that Republican's dropped the ball on not condemning Trump's racist tweets? Condemning Trump doesn't pass any new legislation, it just sends the President a clear message they are not going to tolerate or support him if he says or does the wrong things. Silence on the issue isn't good enough, Republican's need to send a clear message that they are not going to back him no matter what. Not taking a stand only will embolden President Trump to do even more radical things in the future. They shouldn't support him unquestionably just because he is a Republican President, this is how dictatorships are formed, no one speaking up against what's wrong. When did this country become a Them against Us Nation? (Republicans vs Democrats)
In the first place, they weren't 'racist.' Democrats and the Leftist Media over use that word, and they use it even for things that have nothing to do with race. Trump never mentioned anyone's race. But Omar has made very racist (real) comments about Jews and Israel. These are well documented.
Why did they fail to condemn Omar's racist statements, which were real?
What "radical things" has President Trump done?
Laughable that you compare President Trump to a dictator after eight years of one who was nearly a dictator, Barack Hussein Obama, with all the illegal, unconstitutional actions he took, such as implementing DACA by Executive Order after Congress failed to pass it. That's only ONE example.
He claimed in his "manifesto" he was ANTIFA affiliated and his motives were theirs. ANTIFA has praised him. They are a Democrat supporting and supported group. Yes, it would indeed be proper for ALL Democrats to condemn his actions. And we are only talking about ONE guy in this Twitter episode.
When questioned if she condemned actions by ANTIFA type like this terrorist incident Presely just clammed up and walked away with a smug look on her face. So what's your point here?
Nope, sorry I won't bite, that's absolute nonsense. Antifa is not part of the Democratic Party, Democrats do not support anarchists. However, the GOP definitely has a white supremacist problem.
