UPDATE:
WH spokesperson Karoline Leavitt brings the receipts of Dems trade policy.
Pelosi in 1996:
Schumer in 2018:
Here’s Bernie Sanders in 2008, arguing how important it was for the United States to bring back jobs from overseas, like China, which is yet another stated goal of Trump’s tariff policies:
The current Dem tantrum is simply a knee-jerk response to President Trump’s fulfilment of the promises he made to put America first and eliminate the Dems’ grifting operations.
Protection of America’s interests and rectifying the unfair trade tariffs doesn’t sit well with the DemLeft and the RINO idiots.
The national debt is $36 Trillion and growing, but the panic crowd has their panties in a wad over tariffs.
For decades we have been funneling our tax dollars to other countries who subsidize their businesses to compete against the US.
The tariff negotiations are working already. Our trading partners have agreed to lower the tariffs they impose on our exports.
The so-called “libertarians” and the Demlibs are pissing themselves over the reciprocal tariffs.
People complain about the trade deficits and trade imbalance, then lose their shit when a president actually does something about it.
There is no such thing as “free trade”. The trade between nations comes with a cost.
Don’t bitch about tariffs and expect America to continue to get get fleeced.
