    AOG wants tariffs to fail so he can say he was right

    This is a great discussion.

    We helped Mexico and they have abused it. They fucked us thanks to Clinton, Bush, BO and countless idiots in congress who have never run a company. We helped Panama and they abused it. Canada? Same thing. They have taken terrible advantage of the American citizens and it has cost us trillions in employment and innovation. Don't get me started on how much we pay for American invented drugs compared to all the countries around the world who have benefited and pay a cheaper price. That reason alone is why I hate big pharma. I have had numerous friends who can purchase even cancer fighting drugs internationally at a fraction of the cost we pay here in the US even though it was invented her. Back in the early 90's we didn't have drugs like Pepcid AC but i could buy it in El Salvador for $4.00 for 25 tablets. I still can't get it here for that. The best anti-acid product on the market but the FDA didn't allow it until the early to mid 90's. I also hate the FDA. I would come back with 4000 tablets and give to my friends.

    China is a different situation. They use communism slave labor to force their cheap products down our throats. Yes, it is the American people who have consumed and enjoyed cheap Tupperware type products. They have stolen trillions of tech and patented technology in thousands of inventions and products from us. We buy them, We have to stop even though it will mean higher prices for their goods. We have to produce state side and let industry produce it cheaper and cheaper with automation. That is the cure for China.

    This is not simple but common sense.

    Haven't you all enjoyed AOGs policy proposals on stopping illegal immigration and drugs from the Southern border? Might as well say that the dementia patient was on the right track, just lay back and enjoy it.

    Time has shown there isn't anything that actually stops drug… it's clear to me that there is practically no connection to tariffs anyway. The "drug war" was a resounding failure. It isn't going to stop any more than bootlegging stopped in the 20s.
    As far as immigration, the Democrats were too lax on it. There should be strong border security but again I don't see the connection to tariffs. We pay tariffs. SO if we pay tariffs we also pay for the security, but your Mr Trump said Mexico would pay.

    As I said, this AOG guy doesn’t want to have a real discussion on North America trade policy. He wants to dunk on Trump 1.0.

    Another TugTard failure.

    Fine. Then let's do reparations. We didn't have a wall to stop drugs coming in from Mexico. Fentanyl and meth are much different drugs than dope, cocaine and heroin. Dope was sucking up way too many drug war resources. Shut the border and work on the source of the fentanyl, the chicoms.

    California, and especially Arizona, need a political overhaul up to the governor because there is more than circumstantial evidence they are tied up in cartels funding them.

    Good thing the FBI was tied up with rounding up January 6th paraders. Cartels obviously should have been ignored due to lack of resources. Oh, and those abortion protestors too, another important priority. Now violent BLM and antifa protestors were just mostly peaceful protestors. Who can forget all the laser lights shining at the Capitol police eyes and the molotov cocktails thrown.

    It sounds like Mr Trump's plan is to induce Mexico to organize a lot banditos with badges to root out the drugs and illegal immigration at the source? That follows from his tariffs?

    We subsidized Canada's existence only for them to become a Chinese client state for pennies on the dollar.

    Yeah, it's time to put them in their place.
