For those of you who dwell under rocks, the 5% tariff proposed is but a trivial swat at the fly.

There is a greater threat that could be truly harmful. That threat is prominent in Trumps arsenal. That effective weapon curreently destroying Iran and severely punishing North Korea is sanctions.

You can’t or more likely won’t grasp the fact that the Trump objective is to improve the prospects for American companies exporting their products. In your misguided view, Trump is a Free Traitor because his primary reason for action is to increase American exports.

The tariff that you so gleefully espouse is a purely temporary hammer to drive the Free Trade nail.

Trading the world over is more American than Apple pie

No it's not. Trade was non existent/ non factor in the US economy until the 1950's.

Marx was a Free Traitor™ too. You have good company.

It's only as American as apple pie if you were born after 1989.
