awesome post.

We tried an experiment for 60-80 years, to give the world all the tools to become a collection of free nations like us.
But they are not like us. They took those tools, played us for suckers, and bought off our elites to keep us clueless.
That experiment is over. Now we treat the world as it is: a collection of societies, most of which are either hopelessly naive about evil or evil themslves, with which we can trade when it is in our best interests, and from which we must protect ourselves, not only militarily but economically. Tariffs are a good start. Producing necessities domestically, from bullets to technology to medicines, is the required next step, and the sooner the better, because our enemies, foreign and domestic, are not going to wait for us to get our act together before attempting to destroy us. And we’re going to have to fire all those who have been suckering the country for the last six decades, and start from scratch with new leadership.
The patient can come through this better than ever, but the surgery is going to be painful.

AMEN.
You must not have been deeply watching the Cold War standoff which actually got scarier through to his second term, and as far as the economic news, you can look up what the first couple of years was like, 1981 and 1982 gave the media a lot to work with.
Why can’t China “develop” their own consumer market? Hmmm?
So I can disregard all the articles about people upset about the tariffs? ;-)
Drive around rural southern VA or NC. You see decimated factory towns ( furniture, mining, textiles etc. ) all over. It looks like war zone and not one shot was fired.
Yup.
well said
Yes, “the people” understand our country has been ripped off on trade deals for decades.
I agree with decoupling from China because of the communists and their goals, but calling them subhumans is totally uncalled for, to say the least.
There are a lot of Christians over there, worshipping under oppressive conditions. Do you think God sees them or any of the others as subhumans?
"Where are Red Ryder BB manufactured?
AI:
"Daisy Outdoor Products, the company behind the Red Ryder BB gun, has moved much of its manufacturing overseas, but specific details on the exact locations are not widely available. While the company remains headquartered in Rogers, Arkansas, USA, production has been outsourced to other countries in recent years."
So even AI can't find out where they are made. I guess it is a secret. I hate f'g globalism.
PS: You can bet all of the components in a PLAN torpedo are made domestically in China. They don't do "free trade".
Southeast LA and western Orange County since the 1990s:
Todd Shipyards gone
Boeing (formally McDonnell Douglas) nearly gone
Apple Computers gone, moved to China
General Motors gone
Ford gone
Rockwell International gone
Based on that, how many countries who never attacked us and were never a threat to us, but we bombed anyway just so the MIC could make a few dollars, would be justified in calling us subhumans?
“The 50% of Americans who own zero equities...”
I just read that 62% of Americans own stocks, and if you count indirect ownership through pension funds, etc. that number goes to 78%.
It all makes sense when you realize the MSM/Rats/GOPe are not panicking because they are afraid that the Tariffs won’t work. They are panicking because they are afraid that they will.
My brother. 99.9999999999999999999999999999999% of them are utterly godless. Yes I’m sure there are a handful of Christian’s but they just murdered millions upon millions of people with a bioweapon and didn’t bat (pardon the pun) an eye. They have received no comeuppance. They follow their government blindly like robots so if they act like beasts, like animals/—- yes, I’m going to call them mean names. I don’t go around murdering millions and millions of people. I reserve the right to free speech to call them as I see them. Albert Einstein called them robots. They remind of an anthill, drones with the queen. Yes, .00000000000000000000001% of them might not be half bad but the rest are ex just dreadful. We should have nothing at all to do with them.
Obamas second election was stolen. He was even surprised he won.
I know. Go Trump!
Coffee should also have been removed. Coffee is not an essential and is very bad for people who suffer from IBS and other intestinal tract disorders.
