-— Other candidates are going to come forward now with a pro America anti gloBULList stance. -—

Before you pull the trigger on Trump, you might want to look into how the Smoot-Hawley tariffs reduced American imports and exports by 66% and caused unemployment to skyrocket. It’s all right there on the internet.

Our economy is in a worse condition than it was in 1930.

Question: What percent of GNP were American exports when Smoot Hawley was signed into law?

PS: Hint: 66% of a tiny fraction is really tiny.
