This is the wrong approach, IMHO.

We should ELIMINATE ALL CORPORATE TAXES. The corporate tax rate should be 0% across the board.

Eliminate taxes and watch companies clamor to move to the USA...

Abusive but, maybe he will temper that.

'It Will Be A Very Expensive Mistake' Trump Says Companies Who Leave The United States And Fire Their Employees Will Face Massive Tax Increases

Amen, bro!

While you're at it, why don't you threaten employers who bring in IT techs from India and force the Americans they are replacing to train them under threat of loss of severance pay that that will also be a very expensive mistake.

In fact, put your economic advisor, Disney Executive Bob Iger, in charge of that policy.

Ahem.

Here is what has been going on since the 90’s
Once company decides to cut costs by moving to China/India
Their competitor is forced to do it to remain competitive.

Suddenly 30 years later, everyone has been forced to do it, the costs remain the same but all the jobs are gone forever.

The only way to make money is to sell your company to China or India.

Good an across the board tariff. That’s what we had for 180 years. That’s what we need.

After we have run a trade surplus for a few years and cut our debt in half, we can reduce it. In the mean-time we can use the proceeds to cut individual and corporate taxes, leaving American citizens with more of their hard earned money to spend in the American economy.

Our founding fathers viewed an import tariff as a voluntary tax paid only by those who wished to buy products made overseas instead of American products.

By the way, I believe the current WTO allows the imposition of tariffs in response to chronic trade deficits. If true, then we are there, and Trump may not even need Congresses approval to act.

The ONE WORLD ORDER, is rounding up assassins to kill our President and we need to have an effective deterrent. I’d say start sending horse heads to Soros and his ilk.
