This is something that has never been done before.
This truly is winning.
More winning please!
Ping. The S. Korean politicians confuse me...are they pro-North still? Are they playing both games?
Are Koreans going to buy American cars? I wouldn’t.
The world, and the US Government, will just continue on its corrupt, crooked course unless someone gives it a kick.
While CNN is fapping to Stormy, President Trump is killing it on trade.
He is fulfilling his biggest campaign promise - to fix the lousy trade deals that are killing US manufacturing and jobs, at an amazing pace and with virtually no interference from the stupid courts. TPP, NAFTA, all the bad deals are going to be renegotiated, and things like this are simply new ground, where we have never gone before.
Another story that won’t be reported in the fake news.
With no thanks to the NeverTrumpers.
They all need us more than we need them.
Big Win... way to go President Trump...
I now some never Trumpers
some are very good friends of mine and will remain so because they have been Very Good friends for years and have treated me well.
But i cannot for the life of me understand the blind hatred towards this man and the lack of rational thinking it causes.
I’m a NYers from Staten Island. He’s a NYer from Queens.
Are we as conservatie as many here are. I’d like to think we’re close.
We’ve grown up in a stalinist state where guns are near impossible to get legally. Illegally is a different story :)
But that doesn’t mean we wouldn’t take the 2nd amendment completely to heart if we were in power, which Trump is.
I know many here are mad about the “bump” issue, but he’s doing his best.
South Korea has a 400 percent import duty for all foreign vehicles/
Means a 20,000 dollar Harley Davidson will cost ya 100,000 over there.
A 40,000 Cadillac will go ya about 160,000
And we allow them to dump how many tens of thousands of crappy Hyundai or Kia’s?
Not really. Koreans, like Japanese, do not buy American automobiles. They stick like glue to their own companies. These countries depend upon manufactured exports to survive and they want their companies alive and well.
Yuge!! :)
I thought trade “wars” were impossible to win - heard it from the WSJ/CNN/FR concern trolls, etc....

The import tariffs on steel and aluminum should not be based on the country from which the import comes, but the country that produced the steel or aluminum. Nothing in this deal would change imports of South Korean parts made of steel or aluminum that was imported to South Korea, like from China. Instead of going directly at steel and aluminum, tariffs on things made of steel or aluminum will drive manufacturers, foreign and domestic to American steel and aluminum producers, and level the playing field for American manufacturers needed items made of steel or aluminum. Tariffs directly on steel and aluminum just means our domestic manufactures that buy steel and aluminum will be hurt by competing foreign parts manufacturers that use steel or aluminum and cause shifting of that manufacturing to overseas by some current American companies.
Nothing in trade law can alter the nationalist cultural bias to buy Korean or buy Japanese when it comes to cars. Quotas will mean zip, zero, nada. So we can import 50,000 cars to Korea? And when they don’t buy them?
When it comes to cars, and nations that are like us major producers of cars, the best trade balancing requirement would be “reciprocity” on a percentage basis. It would allow Japanese or Korean car manufacturers to make here or import to here a number of cars equal to a percentage of our car market that is the same as the percentage of their car market that U.S. auto makers have. If U.S. automakers have just X% of the Korean car market, that is all that Korean automakers could have of the U.S. market. The same for any major car manufacturing nation.
