As for Trump ... actually I kinda trust his biz instincts.
The playing field HAS to be at least partially leveled for
American industry. Tariffs and some of his other ideas are
the quick-n-dirty, expedient, way to kinda achieve that.
Conservatives don't care about a
"level playing field", they care about
quick profits. Mitt Romney made his
fortune by breaking up American companies
and shipping their jobs overseas.
No jobs were "shipped overseas." That's an idiotic metaphor.
TRump preaches about "Hire Americans First"
but won't hire them himself. If Trump
slaps a tariff on imported cell phones
what American industry is he protecting?
There are no US cell phone factories.
If he slaps a tariff on Mexican tequila
what industry is he protecting? There
are no American tequila brands. He is
just lashing out blindly, refusing to
take advice from anyone.
