That's not politically possible prior to a large increase in real wages.

See, tariffs are how we’re going to get them. One more time for the kids in back, we have enough demand market to manufacture domestically. You stop manufacturing when the following conditions are met: domestic demand isn’t sufficient for it to be profitable and export can’t find a suitable demand market

Why? For multipliers that don’t show up on the stock market immediately, because factories perform value added processes meaning unlike all the other jobs in town, instead of transferring wealth and keeping some for a margin, factories CREATE WEALTH

Trump is getting his revenge on the DNC, like when Obama made fun of him. He's going to use this to break the DNC.

4 out of 5 Seminole County leaders vote to remove fluoride from water in surprise vote​

SANFORD, Fla. – Commissioners in Seminole County voted on Tuesday to end its decades-old fluoridation program, becoming the latest local government to remove the additive from drinking water.

No decision was expected at the information session Tuesday, but in the end, the county attorney said the vote by commissioners could move forward.

The final vote was 4 to 1, with Commissioner Lee Constantine voting against.

Wait a second. This is fucked. Even if the 125% tarrifs on China stay they'll do that proxy thing where they export to other countries for lower tarrifs.
TRUUUUUUUUUUUUMP.

No, Trump only lowered tariffs for people who are on board, and he probably warned the people who are on board what was going to happen.

Who was on board? I think our indo pacific allies who can replace China’s manufacturing were on board

I've been seeing Chink apologists for a while. These people will always champion for the most retarded groups. Trump literally said he was going to impose tariffs. He's open to negotiations too. I'm not sad a bunch of boomers stocks are losing value if it means bringing jobs to the U.S. . The thing people don't seem to get is this is necessary kinda like getting a shot. Yes it's gonna sting a bit the alternative is worse. Imagine championing for the CCP though wtf.

Apologists for China on an anonymous online forum do not surprise me because thr 50 Cent Army is a thing.

It's particularly heinous though when a journoscum writes an article with their real name simping for China. They should realize Total Chink/Democrat Victory is not guaranteed, and this stuff will be archived and remembered just like their "lock up and unperson all the dirty unmasked and unvaxxed" COVID screeds are now.
