Chuck Tumor

Seeing as how he is apparently doing some Chinese PR work, I may be calling him "Chink" Schumer.

Schmickie also called for President Trump to invoke the 1950 Defense Production Act ....basically a federal takeover of the economy.....which seems excessive because President Trump has industry leaders working with him.

From Wikipedia:

The Act contains three major sections.

The first authorizes the President to require businesses to sign contracts or fulfill orders deemed necessary for national defense.

The second authorizes the President to establish mechanisms (such as regulations, orders or agencies) to allocate materials, services and facilities to promote national defense.

The third section authorizes the President to control the civilian economy so that scarce and/or critical materials necessary to the national defense effort are available for defense needs.

The Act also authorizes the President to requisition property, force industry to expand production and the supply of basic resources, impose wage and price controls, settle labor disputes, control consumer and real estate credit, establish contractual priorities, and allocate raw materials towards national defense.
