This has to be a tough day for you - you finally get to see the collapse of economic globalization (which I had always admitted had problems with how it was implemented, but was still better than the alternative) but then you'd have to admit that Trump is doing what you kind of always advocated for here in terms of leveraging the US market to exact major concessions from our trading partners. Now that it's all happening in real time and on a macro scale, are you saying that you don't want this after all? :coffee:

You can need an appendix removed and not want a crazy person with a chain saw to take it out.

All the tariff numbers from other countries Trump had on his table were basically made-up BS.

Oh of course they were, even Googles wrong on tariff numbers :roll:

If the numbers were even 1, One higher, than ours, then Trumps right. Numbers don't matter

You have no argument unless you want our country to keep suffering

The USA gave Trump a mandate and its very safe to say that that “this version of Trump — intellectually, analytically — is the best Trump ever"

I'm not really a fan of the tariffs but let's re-evaluate in a few years.. Trump was going to do this no matter what. If it turns out he was wrong, he has some time to ditch them

If you are not a fan of tariffs then let Nancy Pelosi explain Trumps tariffs and trade policy to you.

She supports Trump on this. Why do you hate Nancy Pelosi?

Still trying to pin me down I see. :roll:

What you’re accusing me of regarding past trade comments is like me saying saying you must be really happy about the way globalization has turned out including the exploitation of foreign workers, environmental harm, and rise of multinational capitalism killing monopolistic mega corporations.

Your obsession with continuously calling this out is strange.

Heaven forbid you be accountable for your own words. Thats a real democratic crisis

BTW, the way you run from accountability makes me think we are arguing with a woman? Is Kkkalm really Kkklam?

No obsession, I just think it's one of the more startling things on these boards over the years. Pwns is right, Trump is approaching all of this with the finesse of guy using a front end loader to remove an ant from his garden, but he's basically following your economic blueprint and philosophy for America. And now that it's in motion and playing out right in front of us, all of a sudden you are anti-protectionist. I just find it interesting. :coffee:

I’ve admitted (long ago) that he had a point on Smoot Hawley even if that is not what I was ultimately getting nor clearly not the right method.

See, Bobby? It’s ok to grant fair points and admit when you’re wrong. That’s what fair minded adults do.

You have a ton of catching up. Godspeed!

Part of the problem is Ganny knowingly mis-portrays
my arguments along the course of this ride. I explained that a few posts ago and he had no reply.

But yes, when I’m dead wrong, I’ll At least own it.
