Yawn. There's that superiority complex once again. Maybe if you could explain why you think our free trade agreements don't reduce barriers and increase trade I'd be interested. If you must, call it free(r), trade but agreements that lessen government control and eliminate tariffs isn't stupid. The facts support me on this as well.

Trumps ideas are good strategy...to get us closer to real free trade which is the goal.

Increasing tariffs, despite what he might or might not do otherwise, by 45% is what constitutes stupid trade. Maybe that's why he's been busy walking it back and has been unable to explain what he really wants or means. Increasing taxes, as you say, and providing regulatory relief is only half good. So, yeah, it's still stupid trade.

He will also allow money (trillions) to come back into the US as investment capital by removing the huge penalties associated with doing that now.

Only good idea I've heard from you yet.

You limp minded one dimensional thinkers only think on one side of a multi-dimensional problem then simply cannot grasp what is counter to your limited knowledge.

Again, if you or Trump could provide some real specifics about the plan we might be able to look at it from some other perspective than what the hell is he talking about?

The fact that you do not know the details just shows your lack of responsibility

What are you talking about? You're an economics maven but cannot explain to me in any detail what it is exactly Trump is going to do other than increase some taxes while lowering others and slapping 45% tariffs on imports of companies he thinks are screwing the country. From his comments he's also going to get tough with the Chinese by threatening a trade war with them. Yeah, they'll cave because he's The Donald. Just like the military is going to carry out illegal orders because he's a leader.

I've looked at Trumps trade strategy, such as it is, and it is a mess of constantly moving parts without any coherent plans based on what we know to be legitimate economic principles. Again, I was hoping you'd be the one to fill in the gaps, but you're as confused and ignorant as Trump when it comes to trade. Thanks for nothing.

LOL, you are a moron...everything one needs to know is in my last post.

Well Mase...you still do not have a clue...the only thing you keep saying is raising tariffs by 45% is what constitutes stupid trade...but you really don’t know do you? All you are doing is parroting what you have been told...and you have not researched what Donald has been saying about fair trade for over fifteen years...you just get your information from your masters who do your thinking for you...LOL, you are sad kiddo.

Well, I have better things to do than argue with a fool...good luck to you sucker.
