Trump and trade

VitaMan's Avatar
This popped up from Tiny in a 2019 post.



"Right now Trump's trade policy is the biggest risk to the world and American economies. And if he keeps this crap up and continues to escalate, it may be the biggest risk to the Republicans losing the presidency and the Senate in 2020. The thing he's got going is a strong economy. If he loses that, Republicans are toast"
Unfortunately Covid-19 was pretty much the only thing that made a difference on the economy. Since it was an election year, more lies and misinformation from those running for election made the Covid response horrible, and we are still paying for the stupidity of all politicians today.

The point here and the reason this caught my eye is that Trump is doing the same thing as before.....
Trump 2.0
And that resulted in Trump being rated the 3rd worst President in USA history


The only difference is that he started out attacking some of our best allies. He is only a bully....no finesse...no diplomacy....would never be able to get a coalition together


Terrible leader.

That was all Covid related, and Democrats just as much to blame as anyone.

Ooh, no. It wasn't all COVID related.

Don't fib with me like that.

We need solid trade policy to help with the growth needed to pay off his debt.

Winning?
While Trump fiddles, we are staring at yet another deadline to fund the government.

March 14.

Behind closed doors, Cole and Congress’ other three top appropriations are trying to strike a bipartisan deal on the first step toward funding the government by the March 14 deadline: One overall spending total for the military and another for non-defense programs. From there, it usually takes at least a month to negotiate and finalize the dozen individual funding bills. The clock is ticking fast.

Meanwhile...
