Basically says business confidence is down because Trump was serious about restricting immigration and ending our abusive trade relationships with other countries.

Most of the C-Suite guys think they are citizens of the world and resent the fact that in a republic like the USA they are no longer able to treat its citizens like Third World workers, who, like toilet paper, are to be used once and thrown away.

Maybe Trump isn’t as good for Crony Crapitalists and as the previous Cronies in Chief were, but he has obviously been good for business in general.

The fat cats who are in bed with the Chinese Communists view President Trump as an enemy.

Just noticed that this bilge was published on Nov. 18. Bet this Leftist scribbler was embarrassed by the employment numbers that just came out.

Instead of using the Dow Jones and inflation/unemployment numbers or earnings reports, the article cites CEO confidence? Which CEOs? United Technologies? GM? Monsanto-Bayer? These and most others are transnationals who are deadset against countries acting in their own interest.

Seriously. We’ve got a Tin Pan Alley that’s been dormant for new construction for over 10 years. Right now there’s two hotels going up four restaurants and two strip centers being built.

Plus, over 1/2 the vacant lots in town have new houses already or ones being built.

If Trump us bad for business, I'd love to see the BOOMING ECONOMY if he was GOOD FOR BUSINESS. I guess we would have an unemployment rate of -3.5% (negative 3.5% to those in Rio Linda)😋

for some reason, we got a temporary free subscription of Fortune, and perusing a few issues showed that they’ve taken a distinctly leftist bend ...

Bad for business?? I know I’m a teen, but if this economy is bad for business, I want to see what a good economy would do. I need to hire people since my lawn mowing business is booming. My pool cleaning service is booming, too. I hate to see a Trump good economy. I know it is BS.
