  1. If Trump is planing on using tariff revenues to finance tax cuts, it means US consumers will have to pay the tariffs to finance the cuts and federal debt will just keep rising because there is no attempt to use the revenues to reduce it. If the tariffs work and stop imports, there will be no tariff revenues to use to finance the cuts. This really is bogus, shell game, bait and switch economics.
  2. The end result was government having to give massive subsidies to soybean farmers as they watched South American countries take over as Chinese soybean suppliers.
  3. Bullshit, your manufacturing went to Asia along with Canada's. The only effect of tariffs on Canada US trade has had is the lack of them. BTW, you already had a tariff on Canadian lumber for years. Your Stable Genius negotiated USMCA and called it "the best deal ever" Now you are saying he wasn't much of a genius. Wonder how much Trump voters are enjoying their 401K's and other pension plans and savings going up in smoke.
  4. Fact: Tariffs are only charged on amounts in excess of quotas negotiated in USMCA. They apply to both sides. Do you really think your stable genius would negotiate an agreement that gave only Canada the ability to charge tariffs on dairy? Fact: Canada imports more than twice as much dairy from the US than it exports to the US. Get off the Trump Kool Aid for awhile. It's rotting your brain.
  5. The federal AHOP program of the seventies got many people into their first homes. I know a few of them. As always, the devil is in the details.
  6. Rand Paul. MAGA's are not conservatives, nor do they believe in checks and balances or democracy.
  7. Yes they do, Whenever evidence is presented that contradicts you, just deny it exists. Another MAGA trait. You can bob and weave and split hairs but the bottom line is you approve of billionaires trying to buy elections, if they are candidates you support.
  8. Dow down 900 S&P down 161 Nasdac down 660 In after hours trading
  9.
