So accordingly the SCOTUS ruled that Trump exceeded his power and that's why they were illegal, not that tariffs were actually illegal. Our congress should have stepped in and made them law. Now a bunch of people are about to get paid that really didn't deserve that money. These importers have made money hand over fist for decades and ruinded the middle class.

It's the same with Democrats that are against missile defence covering the US. They will say it's "silly" and "you can't do that" or they just claim it won't work so don't do it. Anything done to protect the country and enrich it's people there wil be people who oppose it because they want the US to lose.

Someone said the golden dome was "stupid" but couldn't answer why. Then someone educated said that if we start doing missile defense it will cause an arms race where Russia and other countries will just build more ICBM's. For one thing, they are already, and second, good luck competing against the US in something like that. Also, they know that it could bankrupt other countries. Make them spend on that instead of feeding their children.

It literally doesn't matter what side Trump takes on anything. The leftist commies, and yes I'm talking about a good deal of the forum now, get their rotten vagies producing swiss cheese at a record rate. A rate at which we've never seen the likes of before...

No, I think the tariffs that are being refunded were actually illegal, because they weren't collected according to the law.

That's how it works. Probably.

Trump didn't have the authority to do that, but it wouldn't surprise me if laws were passed in the interest of other nations.

So do you not like the tariffs because of Trump, or do you support giving that advantage to other nations? Our government is more concerned about the corporations making profits that the American people that is for sure.

I remember when they passed NAFTA, they said that although some jobs and such would move to Canada and Mexico, but the cheaper labor would LOWER PRICES and the people there would be more financially better off and would buy more from us. Yeah, how did that work out? God damn all the factories and mills closed. Americans are constantly having to adapt to the constant changing market as our jobs are being insourced and outsourced. We have to compete with the world, but they don't have to compete with us. Yet people support it here, because it's good for Mexico and Canada, as well as all the other countries in the world that are fuking us. The US is the most reselliant and productive country in the world and no other nation could fuk itself all of the time and not end up collapsing, but they are sure trying.

You may not like Trump, but he's the only POTUS that will leverage US abilities to get more out of those other countries. No we aren't losing allies. They get upset about things, but the fact is they were doing it all along.

The main reason I didn't like the tariffs is because they were illegal.

But they were also done in probably the most chaotic and least effective way possible. Seriously, was there a way Trump could have fucked that all up any worse?

I don't really have a problem with the concept of tariffs to protect existing American industry and level the playing field. But putting tariffs on things we can't produce, like fertilizer, is fuckin' retarded.

The same people raging over the tariffs were saying that china has a right to protect their industries by doing the same. Thats how much they hate America.

What's really disgusting are the America hating small farmers in shit holes like Iowa (LOL at Iowa) having the nerve to criticize the tariffs for simultaneously raising prices on supplies and equipment while also restricting access to overseas markets like China. Can you believe those **** also complained about the higher fuel prices necessary to protect Israel and the Hormuz river from the terrorists?

Donald Trump has graciously provided these ungrateful assholes with the land, water and sunshine that allows them to follow their farming passion and all they do is bitch about money.

Edit: why is this commie forum censoring me?

Found the ^^^ rage at American tariffs, but supports china protecting their industries old queen.


That said Queenie, dont get me started on farms whining about anything while bringing in tons of illegals/visa workers(who never leave and shit out kids) for the sole purpose of exporting those same crops that we wind up subsidizing and paying for, for decades..

Im not a blanket farm support guy. My only caveat being that America being able to solely feed itself is a national security issue, so only because of that I extend some leeway.
