You are just throwing insults about that have no basis in fact. "Never stand up to China." Then explain this and this.

Your fanatical support of Donald Trump is making you see demons where they don't exist. Your abundant energy would be better spent if it was directed at our true enemies.

Should the government add or increase tariffs on products imported into the country?
“No, a global free trade system is better for our businesses and consumers”

DeSantis: Trump's Overall Goal Is Not About Hiking Tariffs

Rep. Ron DeSantis said Monday he is not someone who advocates tariffs, but he doesn't want to undercut President Donald Trump's negotiations in other countries. Further, he told Fox Business' "Mornings with Maria," he does not think doesn't think the president's overall goal is to hike tariffs. "I want to have lower barriers and I want free trade, but the president has been very clear that he doesn't like that imbalance in ways that other countries treat our products, versus how we treat theirs," the Florida Republican, whose campaign for governor Trump has endorsed, said.

DeSantis Says He Opposes Tariffs, But Thought They Were Just a Negotiating Technique. According to the Tampa Bay Times, “This is the Art of the Deal,” agreed DeSantis. “I don’t want to see where we move to high tariffs across the board. But I don’t think the president wants that. I think he looks at the imbalances of the tariff situation where even our allies will charge exorbitant tariffs just for us to access these markets. So I think he’s doing it as a tool to bring tariffs down and give American companies more access to foreign markets which would obviously be a good thing.” [Tampa Bay Times, 6/11/18]

I agree with Joe B. Folks who live in Florida and see DeSantis on a nearly daily basis have a MUCH higher regard for his based conservative quals than do non-Floridians who only see him as opposition to Trump.

I’ll vote for either man if nominated. I refuse to take part in the standard GOP circular firing squad, which only benefits the Rats.

And DeSantis man-handles the liberal press even better than Trump. Just as aggressive, but smarter, and never shooting himself in the foot.
