Having worked in International business and trade for 35 years..I must agree with Trump. I am for free trade, but what we have is managed trade with unequal treaties and agreements with many countries. Free trade is a two way street..not a one lane road one way and a six lane super highway the other. And our trading partners do regard us as idiots, because our trade policies are determined by single Senators or special interests who give away big concessions for their local interest. I have negotiated with Ministers from several Asian countries and partied with them..they regard our politicians as idiots.

Excellent post.

What we have is war by other means. And we’re not fighting.

I believe you....and that the media is frankly not facing the reality of how bad things are in our politicians giving away all our companies, business, and manufacturing to other countries for the kickbacks they get.... in order to retain their own power.

Many Freepeers do read International news and we know what other countries are saying in regards to the stupidity of the trade deals our country is making.

They are rolling us like a hooker and laughing all the way to their banks!
