Yes it is. Now, it’s VERY good for us.

After WW II the US went through what I call the “Golden Accident.” We LED the world in BOTH production and consumption. This was the first and only time in world history such a thing happened. See the implications, here: https://twitter.com/LarrySchweikart/status/1789314414405149147

As Western Europe commits economic suicide under its “green” policies, it commits cultural suicicde under its immigration and “hate speech” (offical denial of freedom speech) laws.

The ability to manufacture is the ability to create wealth.
Industrialization replaced agriculture in the last two centuries as the primary means of a nation’s ability to create wealth.
Protectionist trade policies were the norm until the Free Traders took over the Republican Party under G H W Bush thirty-five years ago and transferred America’s manufacturing base to China.
Perhaps it wasn’t clear then, but it is now.
China now has the money that used to be in US banks.
We were the largest creditor nation in the world.
We are now the largest debtor nation in the world.
The billions of dollars that we’ve gifted to Ukraine is money that we’ve borrowed from China, to be paid back by Americans not yet born.
China is also using their new-found wealth to undermine and replace the US as the world’s premier power, with the permanent loss of liberty worldwide.

Exporting our manufacturing base was an incredibly stupid and treasonous thing to do, and President Trump started the process of bringing manufacturing back to the US.
Our future prosperity and security requires this to happen, regardless of the opposition of the RINO class republicans.

America created the entire modern world, and we’re now committing economic suicide through the sheer greed and stupidity of our economic elites.

Trump 2024.
There’s nobody else who can do this.

Real wealth comes from manufacturing.

The damage being done by the commies, Marxists, islamists and their sympathizers is intentional?

Water is indeed wet. The last thing on earth to do is blame these coordinated and obviously destructive actions on the commie/Marxist and islamic nations.

It’s just a bunch of radical leftists and not an obvious global domination plan-and I’m still offering the Brooklyn Bridge for sale.

It’s not suicide.

It’s the results of the long march to institutional control.

These are not western leaders running industry and institution. They are commies, Marxists, islamists and their loyal lieutenants and sympathizers.

The Dems were hip to hip with Russia for over 100yrs until it became inconvenient. He hosted the 2008 Olympics. Now they’re in bed with China-Xi hosted two Olympics, Qatar home of hamas’ leaders hosted a recent World Cup.-rinse, repeat the world over.
