America is taking its place as leader of the world back from China. You don't want to give the President any credit for his role in weakening globalism?
His stance on illegals is refreshing, sure, but that's not even close to all he's accomplishing. He's rebuilding our military, strengthening our economic place in the world, cracking down on pedophilia and cults like NXIVM. He's uncovering rampant corruption in our DOJ, our FBI, our CIA, and our Department of National Security (under Clapper).
He's giving traction where before there was only mud. Do you not see any of these happenings? That's just a portion of what's been done so far despite immense adversity in the media and those same US Gov institutions I've listed. A literal coup was attempted and yet still progress has been made during and after.
You may not be impressed, but after years of Clinton, then Bush, then Obama... well, I'm really pleased to see some change.
I appreciate the taxes being placed on the Chinese. I see it as us taking economic prowess back. If you disagree based on value added tax, please outline your point for me so that I may adequately debate it.
Sigh. I understand we pay the fucking tax. You're obviously being insincere, you seem to be friends with OP.
I want the Chinese economy weakened, and tariffs on Chinese goods is how you accomplish that. Anyone who dislikes Globalism would appreciate this, and again, you failed to flesh out your point so that I may debate you.
If all you have to offer is coy laughter, we can allow the thread to end here.
I have no intention of paying the tax. The end goal is less of what we buy will come from China. Companies in China will move to other countries, seeking to avoid the tariff and enter the US market more cheaply. It will not be instantaneous, but over time it will erode the strength of the Chinese market and strengthen the economy here in the US.
I live in the US, so having a strong economy here at home means a lot to me. It affords my children better jobs, cheaper education, and so on. If those things sound bad to you, either you aren't a parent or you have no stake in this country. In either case, it makes your opinions irrelevant to my own.
