America First policies manifesting on que.

But that's been in place from the start. It's just that "America" meant the rich that control it and finance both government and the military that work for it.

But Trump said we would win the trade war and Chyna would pay us billions and billions in tariffs.
Well, seems like pretty much everything you hear from Donnie is an outright lie. It truly boggles the mind that anybody who values their sanity pays any attention to him.

Looks like China and 14 Pacific countries just ratified their own version of a Trans Pacific Partnership—one that obviously excludes the US. This is now the world’s largest free trading bloc representing one third of global economic output.

The impetus for the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) was Trump’s trade war and general uncertainty the Trump Administration brought to international trade. Since we also backed out of the TPP, we’ve pretty much screwed ourselves out of Asian export markets in certain categories, and China will still be stealing our IP for their own use anyway.

Are you saying we need to outsource more to shit hole countries because we don't do enough ?

Are you saying we need to make more laws here related to labor laws, emissions, etc.... But entirely ignoring it because we stop manufacturing it here and thus the rules are skirted?

Why yes! Yes you are! ;)

You are the dumbest mother fucker on the planet!
If you actually had a brain instead of a projector, you’d know exactly what he was talking about and you’d know exactly what the tpp was about and even you’d be laughing at how idiotic your post was. How you function in real life is beyond me.

Your third-rate university with its kindergarten instructors really let you down with whatever they presented to you as passing for education.....Liberty Univ. perhaps? Go demand your money be returned....you were grifted and cheated.
