Finally America has a President representing the American people.
I never thought I'd live to see the day.

Are you calling American industry inefficient?

My name isn't Frank but why are you advocating for 'fair trade'? You are supposed to be a free market guy, and tariffs are incompatible with free trade.

Trump IS doing exactly what he said he would do.

He's absolutely keeping a campaign promise that he kept to 10s of millions of voters.
As we have been through, anonymous sources have been correct many times on what was reported and what ultimately happened.

And Trump doing exactly what he said he would do does not mean it is the correct course of action. Wall Street does not seem to agree with him.

I did not vote for him in 2012. And it took the market 7 years to recover from that crash.
lol I bought a new sofa in 2004, a week later I came down with pneumonia. I got rid of the sofa a year later and haven't had pneumonia since

Your last statement is an Ad Hominem Fallacy.
Apparently you are not informed about such things like 'market expectation'. Kinda like how the stock market can rise simply by the Fed mentioning a rate reduction. Business activity didn't cause the rise- the futures did.

Commodities are the same.

Like I said- Trump didn't care nor understand. Kinda like who I'm talking to.

Classic Waldo. No one could possibly be more uninformed than that. The DOW was at 8000 when he took office, down from 14 000 in 2007, and we were losing 800 000 jobs per month.
