You are globalist Free Traitor™ as such you do not recognize the political/social implications of that disastrous economic policy. You are mentally blind in that regard because of your rigid ideology.

George Washington was a protectionist, was he wrong?

No, I am a realist. Power is always there. It moves. Corruption is always there, it moves.

One of the principles of conservatism is understanding the nature of man. Idealism is for liberals. But understanding the nature of man leaves one hopeless and history proves that. So where does that leave us?

If you have a good king, life is good.

There is no perfect solution. It means we make the best imperfect decision we can.

Back to the original issue

Tariffs in and of them selves are a tool. Let me repeat. Tariffs are a tool.

They can be used for good or evil. My reading is that Trump will use this tool for more freedom. Economic Freedom, Political Freedom, social freedom, etc.

I could be wrong, but so far, the evidence............

By the way, I am insulted by your assumptions and projection. There was no reason for that except your own projection and LACK OF CRITICAL THINKING/READING SKILLS.

What I object to is the idea of a centralized government even thinking about this. Which it has for the last 70 years.
