Trump's Trade War

Trump's Trade War, sacrifices the heartland, women, and children first.

America's bully President has a hammer that he uses to fix everything. If it doesn't work, he blames subordinates, Barack Obama, Congress and anything else he and Fox News about can think.

In a blatant act of antiAmericanism, be fabricated lies about Amazon, and attacked technology companies. That was spurred because he doesn't like their leaders. Everything is personal with the man with the hammer.

Major news sources say that Trump is either ignorant or a bully or incompetent. I think it is a combination add to it that he is a misguided missile where Russia gave him the guidance system.

Now, Trump is harming the stock market, the farmers, the technology companies and even defense contractors. What the hell is Congress doing about the errant leader?

"U.S. stocks plunge as Trump and China double down on trade dispute 

The Dow Jones industrial average lost more than 500 points in early trading. The Standard & Poor's 500-stock index and tech-heavy Nasdaq also dropped sharply. 

On Tuesday, the Trump administration revealed about $50 billion in Chinese electronics, aerospace and machinery products it plans to hit with tariffs. The move threatens to upend global supply chains for corporations such as Apple and Dell, raise prices for American consumers who have grown accustomed to inexpensive electronics and aggravate tensions between the world’s two largest economies. 

China fired back by threatening tariffs on 106 U.S. products, including on soybeans, cars and some airplanes, in the latest escalation of a trade war between the world’s two largest economies."

Trump Bullies Corporations

President Trump, the authoritarian bully, has attacked Amazon and Walmart. He is singling out individual corporations, and that is unAmerican.

His jackhammer approach to trade policy is equally abusive, and Americans will suffer by paying more for goods and services while also losing jobs if this keeps up.

Appearing good for business was a short-lived charade. As with everything he does, Donald Trump is not good for America. He is a threat to national security and most likely a treasonous traitor.

Census and Population Management

The headline beyond Trump's sex exploitation scandal is that the administration wants to include citizenship questions on the 2020 census form. What's the motivation behind that?

First, Republicans want to intimidate more illegal immigrants and legal immigrants too. They don't want them trying to vote.

Frankly, no one wants illegal persons voting as citizens, and the data shows they don't. That is not a problem.

Second, the problem is that there is a sizeable population of illegal persons living in America who are undocumented. That question is addressed by following the laws and regulations that are on the books. The real problem is that too many Congresses and Presidents failed to enforce the laws and that led to the accrual of a huge population of illegal and undocumented persons who expanded the issue by having children in America who are legal citizens.

The size of the problem and the duration of illegal persons living in America has become too large to handle by merely following the law. Doing so now imposes cruel and unusual punishment on families residing in Amerca.

Congress was expected to address the matter, and it failed once again, and so has the President.

Managing the population requires policies that encourage and support favorable demographics that include the development of skills, knowledge, and experience that make the nation's economy
healthy and sustainable.

Today, it is not. Neither party nor the President is addressing sustainable economics, which is why I wrote the book, Regenerating America with Sustainable Economics by James A. George and James A. Rodger (c) 2017 Archway Publishing.

Pathetic Government

While President Trump was left holding the budget-bag yesterday, Congressional Representatives ran for their airplanes to "get of Dodge." Incoming today are students, protesting deficient guns laws and school safety against armed intruders. The President escaped to Mar-a-Lago and is in hiding from them and the reporters wanting to ask a host of questions ranging from White House in Chaos, the Russian investigation, the Budget law, and all of the affairs and allegations of assaulting women.

Meanwhile, the President is staffing for war while Congress winks and blinks.

"March for gun control takes over Washington 

Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to flood the nation's capital on Saturday for the “March for Our Lives” to support tougher gun controls and protest Congress's refusal to consider them. 

Organizers received a National Park Service permit for 500,000 people, an audience to rival enormous demonstrations like the “Women’s March” staged in Washington the day after President Trump’s inauguration. 

Students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., organized and inspired the event after a gunman killed 17 of their classmates and members of the school faculty on Valentine’s Day.

Trump Bamboozled by GOP-led Congress

The members of Congress left in the night or on early planes home and abroad. They got out of town after completing the budget legislation. They didn't read the 2200 pages, and neither did the President. They didn't allow any time for review. It was a shlock job handed to a schlub President.

Then, Trump had the gall to try to blame it on the Democrats and sneaked in some shots at Obama and probably Hillary Clinton too. It is always someone else's fault. Buck up Trump, you da man.

Just sign on the line.

Just like nondisclosure agreements. Wink, nod.

"Trump Signs $1.3 Trillion Spending Bill, Averting A Government

President Trump signed a massive spending bill Friday, hours after threatening a veto that would have triggered a government shutdown. 

The $1.3 trillion omnibus legislation passed both chambers of Congress after lengthy negotiations between leaders of both parties. The Senate passed it late Thursday, and most lawmakers had left Washington by Friday morning. 

Trump tweeted just before 9 a.m. ET that he was "considering a VETO" because the bill does not fully address his immigration priorities. Hours later, the president relented and signed the measure, just as his aides had promised all along.

America in Grave Danger

The chaos in The White House can measure Trump's authoritarian incompetence. Look at it. Are Congressional Republicans seeing this?

Now, with the appointment of war-hawk, John Bolton, as the National Security Advisor, the President has a hair-pin trigger. He has staffed with a trigger-happy bunch the likes of which got us into Iraq.

This regime, the illegitimate and Russian compromised government must be evicted.

Trump the Traitor

Donald Trump ignored his National Security Advisors and congratulated Vladimir Putin for his reelection. Putin's retaining power is from a flawed election process the likes of which Trump might want to impose on Americans, apparently.

The charade is over. Stand up for America or go along with Trump.
Many Republicans have chosen to "go along," and that means they are treasonous traitors too.

Impeach and prosecute the Trump regime.

"Trump’s national security advisers warned him not to congratulate Putin. He did it anyway. 

The president did not heed written instructions from his national security team asking him to take a tougher tone with the Russian leader."
