“China is BADLY taking advantage of America.

Badly. Our trade deficit with China is the largest in all recorded history. Ever. Between ANY two countries.”


I respectfully disagree. US policies enabled the genesis and everything that’s followed is a natural progression. I fault every president since Truman for kicking the can and, in the case of a handful of presidents, making it an order of magnitude worse.

The US has underwritten raising the standard of living of over a billion people overseas, including hundreds of millions of Chinese...all on the backs of our grandchildren.

I never authorized a red penny. A “correction” is long overdue. It will be much, much more painful later than just getting it over with now. This trade BS is all bluster; let’s talk about banking and those who control the purse-strings...

...THAT discussion will turn some people white, ironically.

But no: Let’s argue about tariffs and decades-old defective trade policy for the next 2 years.

He says once again, pausing for effect...

Our trade deficit is AWFUL.
