The trade war did not start with President Donald Trump
The Economist ^

Posted on 09/26/2019 8:03:16 PM PDT by cba123

America's economic relationship with China is rupturing. Tariffs now cover around two-thirds of the countries’ bilateral trade in goods, and will include almost all of it from December 15th. A timely new book by a former reporter for the Washington Post and Wall Street Journal explores the origins of the conflict, which date from well before Donald Trump’s presidency.

Trump this is the issue of your presidency.

This, and the wall.

These two issues are WHY YOU WON.

Lots, and lots of Democrats also are with you, on these two issues.

Lots.

They will vote, to re-elect you.

As long as you continue on, on both issues.

Globalists did not elect you, and will not re-elect you.

AMERICANS will.

For real.

I think this issue will decide his re-election.

Completely.

If Trump stands strongly for America, not for “a deal”, not for China, not for globalists, not for multinationals.

For AMERICANS. Then he will win. And the next four years will be wonderful.

Don’t be sucked in to a deal with China.

Don’t do it, Mr. President.

America first.

For real.

The trade war did not start with President Donald Trump

True, that. It wasn't until Trump took office that we began to fight back!
