Trump has more balls than a canal horse to say enough is enough.

Globalism is the exploitation of the poor people of the world.

Zero worker Rights, a lack of environmental standards, worker safety, no pensions, no benefits all because every consumer wants cheap goods.

Corporations are doing what the consumer wants and it's killing the economy.

It's to transfer wealth from the rich nations to the poor nations so the poor nation can get a helping hand to get their lives on track you know like welfare ;) We all know how successful that program is :)

I think you would have the same percentage if the citizens across the country were polled and have just as much of an impact. IMO get a deal of understanding complete there is only a couple of sticking points that we have, drop the extra progressive clauses. Which could be amended into the NAFTA deal once it is completed and the tariffs will come off, it's that easy. Agree to the sunset clause and readdress it with a possibly new Gov. or with the Trump team again at that time.

I think there IS one big problem! Back in the day when I was a kid and to a certain extent when you were a kid, there wasn't all that many products to concern ourselves with - in my case a pair of jeans, gauch, a pair of shoes and a few groceries so affording quality wasn't such a big problem, but now everyone needs a million products and a hundred thousand for his dog, so affording all this shit is getting to be a legitimate problem. Time we started telling vendors to f**k off. :lol:

And the Senators get to say they voted against the tariffs to their voters. Pretty smart eh?

Kinda like Maryland's gun control laws. The banned transfer within the state of clips holding more than ten rounds. Then they trotted off to their supporters and got all misty-eyed about how happy they were to keep the poor li'l darlin's safe. Meanwhile I have to drive six whole miles to Virginia to pick up my 30-round clips.

It's oppression, I tells ya!

Trump had a 40 Minute Press conference with the International Media and knocked it out of the park.

It remains to be seen how much of it was true.

I am sure there must be quite a lot of 30 round clips in Virginia to be had. The war of 30 round clips is over!


Unless we use Rep. Diane DeGette's plan...


“These are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those now, they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high-capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available,”

... which would clearly work.

She's absolutely right, if by "over time" you mean decades or generations.

Would that it were... alas, she thought once you fired off a 30 round clip that the clip is all used up.


I know you know that but we have a few in here that would have nodded their heads to her ridiculous comment.
