“There is a reason Sen. Rand Paul is against the tariffs because it could be a disaster.”

I’m on the fence here - we need to protect capabilities for national defense (something we haven’t bothered doing), and of course I like American jobs.

But if Trump winds up empowering Labor Unions to hold America hostage as they do in other countries, and have done in the US in the past, and also to fund DEMOCRATS, then not so good.

I tend to think Trump promised them and won hands down so we have to let this play out.

Someone WILL be vindicated in a year or two’s time

Labor Unions are only 6% of the workforce and declining.
