Anxious GOP seeks to delay Trump's Mexico tariffs
The Hill ^ | Jan 5 2019 | Alexander Bolton

Posted on 06/05/2019 8:53:01 PM PDT by rintintin

Senate Republicans say President Trump should postpone tariffs set to be imposed on Mexican exports Monday, and allow more time for negotiators to reach a deal.

The senators say further negotiations could help prevent an escalating trade fight they say would damage the U.S. economy.

“We have a lot of people who don’t want to see this go into effect next week,” said Senate Republican Whip John Thune (S.D.).

Yeah, because it's only been an ever increasing horde of border jumpers since 1986, the last time these same people "reached a deal" and gave "Amnesty" to millions of illegal aliens.

Trump is making these guys look like complete bought and paid for tools, which is apparently not too far off the mark. What a bunch of useless fvckers ever assembled. "More time" is not an acceptable answer. Time is up, and has been for decades now. Or maybe it's time to just come clean with the American people and admit openly you guys don't give a flying fvck about any of this stuff. It'd be a lot easier and spare us the word salad.

..... Sadly .... This is the reality we are left with ..... Apparently there is never a time to stand up and fight .... But Plenty of time to triangulate your position to preserve you political status .....

.... The time is waning when our elected officials will actually consider sacrificing their lives to protect our nation ...... Today ...... Our politicians only wish to support fighting battles overseas ..... and not at our own borders .... Leaving all of us on the front lines of the next Theater of War .... Why do we even have elections any more ...

They’re bought off.

Too many businesses intertwined with cheap Mexican products.

Screw ‘em!

Hells bells, the issue isn't tariffs it is human waves of invaders.

These politicians have no idea how to negotiate. But, they are experts at selling us out.

F’ing traitors!!! A prevent meaningful legislation to stop immigrants from coming in, or even from wanting to come in, and then they turn around and oppose any means that Trump is trying to use to accomplish what the American people elected him to do. I have no more use for these people, I am sick and tired of them.

It is one thing to talk about a free market in a theoretical sense. I don’t think any sensible person could disagree with that. However, sometimes you use need to use every tool at your disposal in order to defeat an enemy. And make no mistake, in this regard, Mexico is our enemy.

“and allow more time for negotiators to reach a deal. “

The negotiations can re-commence after the tariffs are imposed. Then maybe it won’t require all that much time to reach a deal.

As easily as Trump puts the tariffs on, he can take them off.
