Derpy Donny's tariffs save the American consumer

TARIFFS ARE WHAT THIS COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON:

"Tariffs, to protect manufacturers and jobs, were the Republican Party’s path to power and prosperity in the 19th and 20th centuries, before the rise of the Rockefeller Eastern liberal establishment and its embrace of the British-bred heresy of unfettered free trade.

The Tariff Act of 1789 was enacted with the declared purpose, “the encouragement and protection of manufactures.” It was the second act passed by the first Congress led by Speaker James Madison. It was crafted by Alexander Hamilton and signed by President Washington."

So? It's still a ton of money that's wasted because Dummy Don thought he could wage a trade war without consequence. So, now all of a sudden, pumping tons of money into a problem to keep the problem going is ok to reps and cons.

I just think it's funny how those who "claim" to not like Trump actually emulate him.
I think it is funny that some point to derogatory names applied to Trump as examples of flawed behavior while extolling that behavior in Trump and finding it likable.

Yeah, this "trade war" is totally crushing the economy. :rolleyes:

...I haven't noticed anything negative from the tariffs. :cool: Have you? Or is it just Trump-haters trying to find stuff to whine about again?

It's tons of wasted money. Living on debt for something that shouldn't be.

Yea, it is written in the Book of Cyril...
Sacred? The president is elected by people and not appointed by deity.

In other words if the president calls people he dislikes names, it is ok. If someone does that to him, it is not ok. A good double standard by your standards?

Maybe @Kangaroo Feathers is being amusingly informative.
Derpy Donny is "sacred" now? Remember how much they rage-frothed at the idea that people were treating Obama like a deity?

"Pocahontas" is the best ever.
It was offered as an insult, making it difficult to ignore the derogatory assumptions about Native Americans implied by its condition as an insult. It certainly is what I have come to expect from a threatened Trump.

Whether Trump can be said to have opened the door to personal name calling or not, he crosses that threshold so frequently as an example to all that it is unreasonable to call out one or a body of people for doing it also.

Interesting...I saw it not as dissing indians, but rather being about her
impersonating one so as to benefit from diversity seeking institutions.

I don't recall much fervor or cries of rejection coming from the right/far right over images depicting or associating Obama with Hitler either. The political memory must surely be the shortest memory there is.

According to tests, she has Native American ancestry, though she played it up as being more significant than it appears. I don't know the rules and latitude around the issue and if her ancestry is at an acceptable level. Though it sounds like it is much too thin for qualification as near as I do understand, but not so thin to say it is pretense.

All I can say is that when you associate something as an insult that something isn't being praised as I see it. If you associate someone with dung, dung is not being glorified in the exchange. Neither is the person so associated.
