Great speech.

I particularly enjoyed the tutorial on tariffs!!

He’s teaching America now ... deprogramming a lot of the rot we learned in schools and universities, such as “Free Trade” ... much as he also started to do a few weeks ago regarding socialism.

Quoting William McKinley. Wow.

Maybe someday he should mention that the phrase “Free Trade” was first used as a rallying cry of British opium dealers when China tried to stop them from feeding that nation’s debilitating addictions, leading to the 2 “Opium Wars” of the 19th century.

Thus “Free Trade” was a crucial part of the history of the world’s gigantic, international, illicit drug industry.

I LEARNED TODAY, from POTUS, that tariffs were essentially ended by the USA in 1913.

Same year we got the FED, and the Income Tax-—arguably the year that progressivism got its first grip here under the awful progressive (and racist!) President, Woodrow Wilson -— worst President of the century until FDR came along with actual agents of Stalin helping to run things.

Yes, I appreciated that lesson tariffs, especially since I am not well versed on anything relating to economics.

But when POTUS mentioned McKinley it made me wonder if McKinley was the first president assassinated by the Deep State.. ..
