Our Country has lost, stupidly, Trillions of Dollars with China over many years.
POTUS via Twitter ^ | 08/23/19 | Donald J. Trump

Our Country has lost, stupidly, Trillions of Dollars with China over many years. They have stolen our Intellectual Property at a rate of Hundreds of Billions of Dollars a year, & they want to continue. I won’t let that happen! We don’t need China and, frankly, would be far.......

 

better off without them. The vast amounts of money made and stolen by China from the United States, year after year, for decades, will and must STOP. Our great American companies are hereby ordered to immediately start looking for an alternative to China, including bringing....

 

your companies HOME and making your products in the USA. I will be responding to China’s Tariffs this afternoon. This is a GREAT opportunity for the United States. Also, I am ordering all carriers, including Fed Ex, Amazon, UPS and the Post Office, to SEARCH FOR & REFUSE,........

 

all deliveries of Fentanyl from China (or anywhere else!). Fentanyl kills 100,000 Americans a year. President Xi said this would stop - it didn’t. Our Economy, because of our gains in the last 2 1/2 years, is MUCH larger than that of China. We will keep it that way!

Our ruling classes and the banks have deliberately transferred (and are transferring) your inherited wealth, to foreigners and enemies.

Bravo!

Well the Eu is getting their pants in a knot as usual now because we've exposed the fact we've been propping up their economies for decades at our countries expense.....now that we're taking care of our own ‘first’ they are forced to look at their way of business, trade etc. and find they are wanting in how they conduct their economies without us. They can't maintain their socialism while paying for their own national defense.....these countries have been busy spending their own money on socialism while we foot the bill for their responsibility to defend themselves.

I understand Trump has called for a last minute special meeting Sunday morning to discuss the global economy to contrast U.S. growth with Europe’s economic doldrums and press his pro-jobs and “fair” trade messages.

Master Trolling at its best. I can see him saying that tongue-in-cheek but the Enemedia will overreact and take it literally, as usual.

The media will take it literally, but who will be trolling who? Why do you think they jump on these kind of quotes and ask the leading questions that they do? They're trying to get responses that make Trump look bad.

True. The Democrat base is already lost but I assume the media does this to try and make Trump look bad to independent voters who stayed home last time or who voted for Trump. The goal is to get them to the polls to vote Democrat.

Yep. Intellectual theft in broad daylight.

Tariffs were a perennial plank in the party platform of the real Republican Party before WWII - before the Trotskyist Con Artists called Neoconservatives usurped the party.

The Neocons hated Barry Goldwater, Ronald Reagan, Pat Buchanan, and Donald Trump. They are globalists who hate nationalism and nationalists.
