Cordially, he will present a fully-fleshed out plan long before the election.

The fact that he wants to repeal and replace it is the most important thing at this stage of the election cycle.

In previous years nothing would be happening regarding the presidential election 18 months before the election. The GOPe would be carefully controlling it all.

Just derailing the GOPe is an accomplishment in and of itself.

Cordially.

No, tariffs are a direct hit on the importing country’s cost of goods purchased and raise prices to the importing country’s consumer. There is no direct affect on the exporting country.

However, an indirect affect of the tariff may be lower demand because of the artificially higher prices it has created, but there are alternatives for the exporting country. There is certainly no direct affect of an importing country’s tariff on the exporting country’s quality, efficiency, or profit. Only the possibly of lower demand from the importing country which over time will feel pressure from other competing countries who keep their tariffs down.

If ALL countries have high tariffs, then yes there is a negative affect all around. But that is not how the real world operates. Any country with half a brain should realize that it is to their advantage to do away with tariffs regardless of what other countries do.

Please quit referring me to comparative advantage without explanation because that is not an argument. As I said, I’ve studied this stuff. You’ve got to be able to analyze and give reasonable arguments yourself explaining why you disagree with what I am saying. So far you’ve only made assertions and haven’t provided an analysis or explanation of where my reasoning is faulty.

....”I'm very impressed by these images. Thanks for posting them caww. I find these extremely unusual in the political world of 2015 America. We are watching history here”....

Thank you....and indeed these are historical moments. Trump has changed the political climate....as well media and all those journalists and elites attempting to figure out what is happening here....It's a movement and it's growing from the grassroots up. Surprisingly the media continues to say it's doubtful he will win the nominee.....only because they CAN"T figure this out...such denial of the obvious "American heart and spirit".....

..note he reached out to those along the way ...and while giving speeches if he notices someone with his book or a sign or something unusual he takes a moment and acknowledges so. Trumps ability to engage the public "into" his sphere is quite amazing.....

Here's a good example of the crowd "paying attention" to what this man is saying.....almost every face reflects they are directly engaged with Trump. They "want" to hear what he has to say. Pretty amazing to see this intensity in a crowd with their attention as is.

So you save a .7 cents on your next Nabisco cookie purchase while million have no jobs in the U.S. This is a fair trade off?

If what we have today is working so well why do quality imported vehicles cost $50,000+ and up? Where is the big saving? Will new vehicles imported from Mexico be better and be real cheap and reasonably priced. Mexico is costing America tens of hundreds of billions due to their total disrespect for our laws and rules. And we should reward them by making them prosper while America declines? Do you think Communist China is our freind who should be rewarded?

100% correct. PC of all stripes is a proven mass murderer, which is designed and only meant to stifle and control thought and speech.

Here you are on a so-called conservative site arguing for fairness instead of freedom. FREEPERS, WAKE UP: FREEDOM IS NOT FAIR BUT NEITHER IS SOCIALISM OR WHATEVER ELSE YOU TRY TO REPLACE FREEDOM WITH.

If you put equality ahead of freedom you’ll end up with neither. If you put freedom ahead of equality, you’ll end up with a great deal of both.

The free market economy works on supply and demand. Any company that wants to stay in business and remain competitive will move wherever it finds a higher benefit-to-cost ratio. Nabisco would be stupid and irresponsible if it didn’t take advantage of a better business environment whether it be Mexico, China, or the moon.

Don’t look at and snivel about symptoms, get to the DIRECT ROOT CAUSES. Only when you identify root cause can you come up with effective solutions. Tariffs solve NOTHING because they don’t attack the problem and those pushing tariffs are not addressing the direct causes of the thing they’re supposedly trying to fix.

There’s only ONE culprit in this scenario: THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, with their cost-raising, productivity and job-killing, anti-business minimum wage, union protectionism, and tonnage of useless, dead-end regulations.

The Federal Government is the 800 pound gorilla in the corner of the room that so many seem to not see. The Left and the MSM are certainly going to try to distract you from this beast but we all know it is there and MUST be decisively dealt with.

I noted you completely evaded the questions. No surprise.

GOPe, GOP, Rhino, socialist, GOP tea party, Democrat, conservative, right wing, left wing and on and on.

Here's a tip slick, America wants for a leader for a change, one who'll make America great again. I can tell you most Americans are not going to support some political party good boy groupie or what whatever your definition of some word is.

Those days are dead Jim. Ya better learn it.

Profits regardless of consequences has all but left America dead on the floor. It’s left a few folks wealthy beyond our imaginations, while the rest of middle America got economically gang banged. This is no secret.
