Yes, a plan to bring back manufacturing to the US requires a long-term strategy, and Trump is not a long-term-strategy kind of guy. He thinks and acts only in the short-term. Trump says his tariffs will induce the onshoring of manufacturing back to the US, and at the same time raise $6 trillion dollars in revenue. These two things cannot happen at the same time! He only uses them as talking points to cover his true intentions – which is to use tariffs as bargaining chips to get what he wants out of other countries. He loves tariffs for one reason – for the power he thinks they gave him to bend other countries to his will. For companies to suddenly invest the time and resources into building in the US requires a guarantee that the tariffs are permanent, and Trump has given every indication that they are negotiable. That kind of uncertainty does not invite long-term investment.

"You can be free, as long as I approve."

How about journalism students being told by the Dean of the Journalism at Columbia Journalism School to not post anything about the Middle East, or Gaza, or the Ukraine, on their social media accounts, because "Nobody can protect you. These are dangerous times." We know that Columbia gave in to Trump's demands to recover $400 million in funding. Free, my foot.

Nothing I have mentioned concerned this, and it is an entirely different conversation. This has nothing to do with anything I mentioned. You sound desperate.

So you agree that he is, but he is allowed?? No. trump's grabs for power make the US a lot less free.

Here is her entire quote, and it is from 2021. "The mob who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 to try to stop Congress from carrying out its constitutional responsibilities were behaving like domestic enemies of our country," Gabbard said. "But let's be clear, the John Brennans, Adam Schiffs and the oligarchs in Big Tech who are trying to undermine our constitutionally protected rights and turn our country into a police state with KGB-style surveillance are also domestic enemies — and much more powerful, and therefore dangerous, than the mob that stormed the Capitol." https://www.theblaze.com/news/tulsi-gabbard-adam-schiff-john-brennan-domestic-enemies

Here are a few, I am sure there are more: National Institute of Health, US Institute of Peace, The Kennedy Centre, The Smithsonian, The American Women’s History Museum, 45 colleges under investigation by the Trump Admin (not to mention blackmailing Columbia), Foreign Influence Task Force, Task Force KleptoCapture, U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Federal Election Commission (FEC), Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Federal Trade Commission (FTC), The U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM) - Voice of America, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, Radio Martí, and Radio Free Asia …. Oh, wait, I almost forgot about his takeover of the Supreme Court and his insistence that he is above the law and not subject to the decisions of judges!

Have you been living under a rock since January?

Not a vague generalization, but the Trump's Administration's words. they are taking over in the name of erasing "improper ideology." If anything is vague, this is it.

Small minds really believe this has something to do with DEI, the enemy created. If institutions in the US are limited by what the government approves of as "proper ideology" it is the Chinese cultural revolution of the 1960s, and more lately Putinism, all over again. The US is no longer the land of the free. “Who are our enemies? Who are our friends? This is a question of the first importance for the revolution.” Mao Zedong, 1926 “[The play] Hai Rui Dismissed from Office is not a fragrant flower but a poisonous weed… Its influence is great and its poison widespread. If we do not clean it up, it will be harmful to the affairs of the people.” Yao Wenyuan, 1965 “I was Chairman Mao’s dog. What he said to bite, I bit.” Jiang Qing on her role in the Cultural Revolution https://alphahistory.com/chineserevolution/quotations-cultural-revolution/

I already have, with cites. take by corruption and force, degrade and overpower, for his own benefit

This is believable to me, and in line with other actions of Trump. At the least, it is wholly incompetent and irresponsible. As one person who was doxed said: “The immediate remedy is to fire all the people involved in vetting this material. Their attitude was cavalier. They should be fired plain and simple. That’s step one. Accountability,” diGenova said.

it seems the order not to redact came directly from Trump When Trump said Monday that the assassination-related files would be released the next day, he said he had directed staff not to redact them. “I don’t believe we’re going to redact anything,” Trump told reporters during a visit to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. “I said, ‘Just don’t.’”

i recently read another definition of "being woke" - it just means not being an a$$hole.

I've seen you involved in enough threads with the evidence presented. If you didn't get it the first time, why should I believe you will get it this time?
