"“This is a big mistake. These tariffs will raise prices and destroy manufacturing jobs, especially auto jobs, which are one-third of all Tennessee manufacturing jobs,” said Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), who said tariffs are “basically higher taxes on American consumers.”"
"November.
The GOP’s free-traders were mollified this spring as the Trump administration exempted U.S. allies from steel and aluminum tariffs imposed on other countries like China. But on Thursday, that all changed as President Donald Trump imposed 10 percent tariffs on aluminum imports and 25 percent tariffs on steel imports from the European Union, Canada and Mexico.
The move thrusts the GOP back into an internecine war over free-trade policies that have defined the party for decades, just as Republicans mobilize for a hotly contested midterm campaign.
Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) called it “bad news” and predicted imminent retaliation from the key U.S. allies. Senate Finance Chairman Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) said there is "mounting evidence that these tariffs will harm Americans." And Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) warned that similar policies 90 years ago sparked the Great Depression.
“This is dumb. Europe, Canada, and Mexico are not China, and you don’t treat allies the same way you treat opponents,” Sasse said. “‘Make America Great Again’ shouldn’t mean ‘Make America 1929 Again.'"
Senate Foreign Relations Chairman Bob Corker called the move an “abuse of authority only intended for national security purposes.”"
RINOs will get what they deserve. Always shoot a traitor first. Rope Day when?

Globalists revision of history and attempts at damage control are revolting. The Great Depression was sparked waaay more by speculation in the stock market and out of control central banking. Drought did not help either. Tariffs had little to do with it. It's all about ready to happen again. The neocons and globalists want someone else to blame (namely, Trump), rather than blame themselves and their own failed policies. The Age of Centralized Banking is soon to have a wakeup call and (((They))) know it. Tariffs are better than taxes. Income tax is unconstitutional. Tariffs are not.

The tarrif is literally the only trump policy I agree with since the Muslim ban tbh

And a fuckton of Ponzi schemes being run simultaneously on top of that. Which is not to say that I don't think a lot of bank registered mutual/hedge funds are just that.
The market is an ugly thing right now.
Thomas Jenkins
Technically, a tariff is a tax. It's a sales tax. This is accurate.

Centralized banking, fiat currency, the stock market, the 'Federal' Reserve, the IMF, etc, etc… ALL Ponzi schemes.
Hunter Lewis
I thought that was implied. Income tax isn't even constitutional.

Ryan Jenkins
again, trump shows what a shitty "negotiator" and outright beta pussy he is. face to face, he agrees on the written communique, but after he leaves he tweets that he takes it back. too chicken to confront anyone with his real thoughts face to face, only tweeting it afterwards after he's left. i predicted that he would pull some kind of bs like this. also guessed that he would fuck up the north korea summit and it looks like he's trying to one up kim already. kim announced an end date to the summit, so trump has scheduled an earlier departure date, just to TRY to seem like an alpha by dictating his own schedule. too late don, kim made the alpha move first, you're just the beta as usual.
Landon Perez
stupid ass faggot GOP cucks shocked that Trump doesn't want to keep losing like the GOP have been for the last 25 years, but actually win.
